    And a bunch of others have said he’s not better.
    And you still saying he’s better? Not better value or fit, just flat out better?

    So that goes against what you said earlier.

    It’s obvious I’m talking to a teenager or low functioning adult, so I’ll leave it alone.
    Good luck buddy

    So you think Jrue is better than Westbrook?

    Again, read the thread. Quite a few have said Westbrook is better. Jrue is better fit

    It's not disputable that Jrue is regarded by many to be one of/if not the best defensive guard in the league. Depending on who you talk to (it's all relative anyways). Most people are well aware of how good he is as a defender (several MVP caliber players have said it). Why die on this hill??

    I didn’t say he wasn’t a good defender. He is good. 5-10 range in guards.
    I was being a smartass about the claim him being widely regarded as the best defensive guard in the league.
    Pundits and experts disagree is all.

    Funny enough Westbrook had better DWS and DBPM than Jrue this past season (so did Bledsoe)
    But I agree Jrue is a really good defender.

    Sure, I gotcha. It's all relative anyhow, I'd just let this one go.

    But they’re not paid the same thing - that’s the point.

    Yeah, it wasn’t the point being made.
    Either way I’m over it

    At this point I feel like Tilman is just gonna ask for 2nd rounders so he doesn’t have to pay anybody too much.

    With Klay having a torn achilles most likely

    Imagine if the Warriors trade Wiseman and picks for Harden

    Blasphemy. I can eventually accept the idea of him being traded....but not to them.

    Plus, how’s Steve Kerr going to trash talk Harden if he’s his coach?

    Harden to Knicks for cap space, Bobby Portis and a lot of 2nd round picks

    Ben Simmons is as big as AD, bigger than Lebron.

    I still think Rockets should sign Jonah Bolden, he is big enough, quick enough and physical enough to defend either AD or Lebron.
