Yup, and a 2pt loss on a buzzerbeater to a contending spurs team looking for a little playoff payback proves that! A game where martin had 15 pts and 5asts and got to the line.Ur so lucky u watch basketball and i dont.

LOL, funny thing is last night the Thunder weren't hurt by a lack of Harden, they were hurt by Westbrook being selfish.

Actually Westbrook is usually what hurts them.

Westbrook is incredibly overrated. He's a great athlete, but he's a gunner PG who keeps shooting even when he's terribly off. It was really frustrating watching them play last year during close games, because he always wanted to be the man. If you have KD on your team, you get him the ball as soon as you can.

Id still trade anyone not named bynum for him.

Just saying

Its def saying something when someone just spent a post talking about how overrated he is and all the mistakes he makes.

Had to make it clear that hed be unreal in philly with bynum.

Hydro - I agree with the second part of your post. In a fantasy world where we could get him the combo of Westbrook and Bynum would be a terror for the East.

I think my problem with Westbrook is he is on a team where they need him to be the sidekick, the Pippin, the Robin, whatever you want to call it. But sometimes he goes on these games where he plays like a kid with a temper tantrum and refuses to be the second fiddle. Personally I think it hurts his image with some fans. I know it does with me. Westbrook lucks out that he plays with a 'reluctant' superstar in Durant, who won't get up in his face or make remarks about him to the press.

I mean could you imagine if Westbrook had Kobe, LeBron, or even going back, MJ, Magic, or Bird as a teammate? Those guys would be in his face after the first quarter of a game like last night.

I dont like westbrook here. I dont think he wants to spend his career being the 2nd guy. He wants to be the superstar. The guy hitting the game winner

Lol? who do we have to do that here? bynum ? okay mabye in the early game but when we need that iso scorer capable of closeing games for us Westbrook would be that guy

**Caino** · 11-02-2012, 06:19 PM

For now but to be a contender another star would be coming in.

**Sixerlover** · 11-02-2012, 06:40 PM

^ Yeah.. Westbrook.

**Caino** · 11-02-2012, 06:43 PM

Westbrook bynum and 1 more. Or are you sticking Jrue or westbrook at sg

**BChydro86** · 11-02-2012, 07:04 PM

u prob (definately) have to trade jrue to get westbrook.

but if u could keep holiday and steal westbrook from the thunder (yeah right).... i think westbrook plays the 2... hes the better scorer.

Iggy, another bad game so far 1/7 shooting and losing badly to the lowly magic.

I just hope hes having fun out there
