I don't know why some posters on this board feel the need to belittle Westbrook so as to indirectly prop up Harden ( "should have traded WB instead"). Harden is doing his thing in Houston and WB is doing his in OKC; why are Roxs fans not happy with the simple fact that they won the trade? Why should they act all butthurt if WB is beasting and is just as talented as Harden?
I also don't underhand why Westbrook gets so much hate. It just seems like there are a bunch of skip Bayless running around. I asked about the Westbrook question because he could be one reason but I never would go as far to say that he sucks or isn't a great player. He is a WINNER. Kobe is a WINNER. People hate them but they win.
The Westbrook hate is getting out of control. I wish OKC traded him last summer so y'all could see how Durant would really look without him.
Look at Durant's rookie season record in Seattle. You would get an idea how Durant looked like without Westbrook. It's not pretty and OKC are smarter than this.
This is a hateful world. All the hating needs to stop.

Only .06 ahead of KD. Looks like its gonna be like get in vs. Thompson for the scoring championship battle.
I don't care who wins the scoring title... but my guess is Melo will shoot until his arms fall of to make sure he wins it. What I do know is that Durant is a FAR better player than Melo.
I wouldn't say top 3. Top 4/5 probs. James, Paul, Durant, Anthony/Parker. 'Melo doesn't really pass the ball much, but he scores so well and rebounds decently. And he plays really good defense...when he wants to.
