    Don't disrespect Bryce Drew, Matt Maloney, and Luther Head like that.

    I actually think if you switched the era Westbrook would be better in AIs era and AI would be...AI would be terrifying today...it's honestly hard to imagine how good he would be playing in today's era where his size wouldn't be a disadvantage to him.

    If Westbrook played late 90s and early 00s I don't think people would be so harsh on his inability to shoot. I think the perception around Westbrook would be a lot different at least.

    Who's the # 1 point guard on his list?

    I think it's Kenny Smith

    That is why I said Westbrook is still a top talent despite his flaws, the eras are different, playing styles.

    It is also fun seeing an unathletic and slow Jokic dominating and getting MVP honors.
