    It COULD...

    Westbrook is 1.9 Assists AHEAD of the 2nd Place Guy (Ricky Rubio) and he Finished 4th Last Season...

    It Still WON'T Pacify his Critics Though...Westbrook's ALWAYS Had Relatively High Assist #'s, Yet his Naysayers Liken Him to an Allen Iverson/Carmelo Anthony Level CHUCKER...

    Curry is playing outside of his fucking mind this season.

    No, I don't think KD is as good as Steph at this point.

    In 2014, Kevin Durant was CLEARLY the 2nd Best Basketball Player in the World....That's NOT the Case as we Approach 2016...

    Kenny Smiff Referred to Curry as "Michael Jordan WITHOUT the Dunks", in the Post-Game Show...

    What Curry's Doing Really IS In that Realm....

    The thing with Curry is that you have to rough him up. Be physical with him to make him take uncomfortable shots. But he's so quick and slippery, and his release is so fast, that you end up fouling him or falling for a hesitation, fake or crossover. I can't wait to see how the Spurs deal with him. They always have a plan B, C, D, etc.

    It won't take long until the Pistons become a formidable challenger for the Cavs. What's scary is that Drummond isn't even entering his prime yet.

    I think the Spurs may just have Golden State's number. But the Warriors are getting better and better so we shall see. I already cannot wait for the playoffs.

    Playoffs will be insane. It seems like the West raises the bar every single year.

    Sugar K Leonard has officially become the Spurs go-to, and at this point is the league's 3rd best SF behind Bron, and KD.

    I love Leonard's game. Just excellent all around.

    And yes you're right about Drummond. He's a beast and the Pistons so far are surprising me with their quick start.

    westbrook may lead the league in assists. he certainly will lead the league in turnovers. he's at around 5 per right now

    He's Also DRASTICALLY Improved his FG%, 3pt% and Slightly Improved an Already Pretty Good FT%...

    Pointing Out Westbrook's Failings DOESN'T Get Kevin Durant Any Closer To 1nce Again Being the 2nd Best Player in the League, Homey...

    we shall see. curry is very hot right now so you'd have to consider him above james if he continues at this clip. Im confident durant will get back to the level he was at pre injury.

    Im happy for westbrook if he improves his efficiency. but his assist to turnover ratio is still not among the best PGs in the league at this point.

    Another Thing People RARELY Consider, when Critiquing Westbrook's Shot Selection, # of Attempts and Turnovers; Motherfucker was NEVER the Designated PG of ANY Team he Ever Played for, UNTIL Being Drafted by OKC...

    Dude is Only 7-8 Years Deeeeeeep into EVER Playing the Position...AND he's Had to Learn it @ THE Absolute Highest Level of Basketball...Most NBA PG's Had The Role Since Fucking ELEMENTARY School, Naturally Maturing Into It w/a LOT More than 7-8 Years @ Their Disposal...

    Whereas, Westbrook's Taken a Crash Course, an ABBREVIATED Route to Being 1 of THE Best PG's in the League...

    Ya'll Musta Forgot!!!

    I'll be impressed if westbrook remains at 47% fgs. Even with his 5 turnovers a game.

    Durant is again at 50/40/90

    he does cocaine?

    honestly Id leave curry off as well if he werent just making every fucking shot these days, and put paul george just to have the versatility defensively. that would be a very difficult line up for teams to match up against because they could literally switch everything defensively.

    Rumor has it that Harden has been viewed in clubs doing the nose candy. Not sure how true the rumor is, but I wouldn't doubt it.

    And Curry every shot these days? It's nothing new. Curry has been an ELITE player for the last 3 years. I thought last season was his PEAK, but if he keeps up his current form, or anything close it, we're looking at a historically good season.

    Well, it seems like Porzingis is legit. Phil Jackson chose well. And just like I said, Detroit is lining up to become a legit challenger to the Cavs in the east.

    Aaaaaand Houston fired McHale. Knee-Jerk reaction IMO. I mean, he wasn't the best coach around but firing him won't do much except maybe light a fire under the players for a little while.

    mcHale is a shitty coach. hiring a real coach like thibodeaux will certainly be a huge upgrade.

    The Rockets do indeed need Thibs. He'll force Lawson and Harden to actually play D.
