I wanna say Rose, I'm the BIGGEST Rose fan but ahhhhhh I just don't know about the knee injury. ACLs are just so hard to recover from and also Rose's game depends on his explosiveness from his knees so. Westbrook is too inconsistent and just not as good as a POINT GUARD, particularly on defense. Lillard is great but I wanna see more. Lin is well, mmh. Fuq Ricky Rubio the most overrated player, even more than Lin. Shooting in the low 40%, injured, too soft and too spanish. Sooooo Kyris Irving, tho he's bit selfish but he's playing on a scrub team. Though you really gotta elevate the players around you but meeh.
Actually correction. Rubio is averaging a career 35% shooting something like 6 points wow. #turrible.
Irving is hella overrated. I mean yes, he is an offensive force, but it takes both sides to win. Dude is a defensive liability. Their records are such horrible this year. Great PGs elevate other teammates game.
Westbrook had the higher PER the same year Rose won MVP. And that doesn't include defense, ability to play off-ball and not missing clutch free throws. Rose had the worst MVP postseason in NBA history is by far worst MVP to ever play the game of basketball. If anyone thinks Rose was better than Westbrook since 2011 then he doesn't know basketball(Westbrook also totally outplayed him off the bench in 2010 FIBA World Chamionship).
Speaking of Nash, you should take a look at Irving's shooting numbers this early in his career compared to Nash. Kyrie is a ridiculously good shooter for someone so young. He is much more than handles. With Rose coming off major knee surgery I would rather have Kyrie than him.
Rubio??? Really?? How many sample of games does he have to be on that list? If Rubio vs. Lin, I'd pick Lin.
Have you SEEN that Cleveland roster? There's literally no one else aside from Varejao who would be a rotation player on our team, a .500 ballclub. Irving is going to leave in eight years from now because as normal, they completely flubbed two straight #4 picks.
LOL you may want to watch this. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/RS0Juf5gLP0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Also note - Rose didn't have a SG. HE had Brewer. Lebron Guarded rose, because Lebron had someone else you can guard DENG. Noah wasn't a scorer. Westbrook had Kevin Durant - Lebron had to guard Durant. If Lebron played D on Westbrook. He would shut down westbrook.
At this point it has to be Westbrook vs Irving, if there's anybody I really want to be beast it's Rubio or Lin
