    Westbrook is padding his stats? Is that what you are alluding to? Do you know what a box score is? Do you see what he has done in 27 minutes and 28 minutes in consecutive games? People on this forum are so uninformed.

    Which Gasol?
    I gotta agree w/your MVP rankings though. Westbrook is moving up rapidly and I think right now I have him closing in on 2nd place. He does have the benefit of the recently revamped OKC bench and that is a pretty nice bench to come in and help out especially w/KD injured.

    The difference between now and the beginning of the season when Durant was injured is that OKC is much deeper. Russell does not have to score 30 every game for them to win now. This is a scary aspect for the rest of the West. When Durant comes back OKC will be the most talented squad in the NBA, and maybe just in time for a playoffs run.

    Westbrook is the best player in the NBA right now. Easy player of the month for him averaging a near triple double.

    I hope OKC don't jump up to 6th if we happen to remain 3rd.

    Orly? They're sitting at 8. The Rockets have dealt with injuries all season too.

    I'd say this is about accurate:
    1.LeBron
    2.Harden (just 2 steps behind him)
    3.Westbrook in 2016
    4.Curry
    5. Anthony Davis 2016

    Harden is the perfect fit for the new face of the NBA after Kobe retires. It's going to be LeBron & Hardens league.

    The funny thing is if healthy Durant could be better then all of those guys.

    Russ plays like he could die in his sleep that night. Dude literally has zero chill between those 94 feet of lines.

    We are watching a caliber of player we just haven't seen before. Being Westbrook is like playing Mario Cart at 150cc without knowing where the break button is [​IMG]

    He's basically turned into a walking 28/7/11.

    The two ex-NBA players say Westbrook is the best player and the two dumbass reporters act like its ridiculous that they would say Westbrook is the best player. That is an example of stupid not knowing they are stupid. Chris Broussard and Amin Elhassan are great reporters #sarcasm.

    Ya'll are delusional if you do not think Curry is the MVP this year. Harden is definitely second, Lebron is third and Westbrook is fourth. Yes Westbrook puts up numbers but he is woefully inefficient.

    This is one of the most Westbrookian games ever.

    37/13/11 on 11/33 shooting with 3 mins left in OT

    Bwuhhhhah

    38 shot to score 39
    1-10 3pt

    If Bledose had the same attempts rate ,he could score 58 point ,can compete with Denadree Jordan for the most block/ game

    So wait, Russell Westbrook took 38 shots, shot 16 free throws, and had 11 assists and 4 turnovers. That is a whole heck of a lot of possessions that Westbrook used. Did anyone else get to touch the ball?
