    I remember many here saying Westbrook was better than Harden hahahahaha

    Westbrook isn't even the best player on his team. The dude is an inefficient chucker and stat padder always has been. If he played with a Rodman, Barkley type, he'd never would've averaged his meaningless triple doubles. They would have punched him in his ninja turtle looking face.

    Harden can score 100 points in each of the remaining regular seasons games and it wont mean shit if he disappears again in crunch time as he has done the past few seasons vs golden state and as he did with okc in the finals vs miami

    Good to See You CONVENIENTLY Showing Up as Usual, TexMex.

    To Your Point “People” Said That During Westbrook’s HISTORIC MVP Season, When he Was CLEARLY Better Than Harden.

    Westbrook a Stat Padder? Look Nooooooo Fuuurther than Harden’s 30pt Streak from Earlier This Season for Stat Padding. Not to Mention How Harden’s STILL a Serial Ref Baiter Who TRAVELS On His Sidestep Move More Times Than Not.

    Worse Than You CONVENIENTLY Peeking Your Head in the Door, it’s a GIVEN You Wouldn’t Be a Fan of Harden’s Game AT ALL If He Didn’t Play for the Houston Rockets.

    Literally, That’s THE ONLY Reason You Ride His Nuts and Brush His Beard for Him at Night.

    Hilarious to See Neil Still CANT Let His Westbrook Contempt Go. :D

    Motherfucker LITERALLY Praises Every Other LA/So-Cal Area Hooper BUT Westbrook. Even Dudes Faaaaaaar Beneath Westbrook’s Level.

    Not Sure What Westbrook Did to Neil Personally, But Clearly it Was SOMETHING. Perhaps Revealing What Had Happened Can Begin the Healing Process.

    I give Westbrook credit for being among the top 5 players currently in the league from the LA area. that's quite an accomplishment

    If I were creating a team my starters would be Leonard, George, harden, thompson and holiday with Westbrook off the bench.

    That's Because You're BIASED....

    Jrue Holiday? Really? :D 1st Time he's EVER Averaged More than 20 in a Season, and You're ALREADY Giving Him Russ' Spot, Huh???:D:D...BIAS..

    Not Even Worth Discussing w/You, Which is Why REED Doesn't Know Why YOU Waste Time Pretending to OBJECTIVELY Speak on Russell Westbrook When History Has Shown You're 100% INCAPABLE of Doing Such...

    Just Let it GO Neil...Let it GO!

    If you call averaging 2 more points and 2 more rebounds clearly better and historic, well then I guess Harden was pretty historic as well. Especially considering he doesn't instruct his beta ass teammates to clear out so he can get his rebounds and WB had to jack up 5 more shot attempts per game to get that 2 extra ppg. Not exactly a formula for winning now is it? Guess that's why the Rockets booted his ass out in the first round that year.

    That doesn't matter cuz "trib dubs" and "scowls" right?

    Harden just got CP3 and Capela back, he's already shooting much less. He did what he had to do to get the Rockets 14th place to 3rd in the West. Guess what team was unseated for that 3rd spot? And it's ok if Harden shoots a lot, because he can SHOOT. WB's TS% is 49.9 for 389th in the NBA. Harden is at 63.1% for 69th in the NBA.

    As far as his travels and foul baiting, well other players have tried his back and side step, and were called for traveling, because they didn't work on those moves. Harden has the Euro step, backstep, sidestep, and had recently added a floater. WB has done nothing to improve his game, he's the same player he was when Harden was his teammate. Just much less efficient, looks at the scoreboard for stats much more, and hasn't played defense in years. Players like Rubio can now torch his ass.

    Baiting the refs. Harden was asked about about this, his answer? "Just stop fouling me." The refs don't "love" Harden, the NBA doesn't, hell he's one of the most hated players in the NBA.

    As far as me combing his beard, well that's disturbing, as such a thought had never entered my cranium but was entrenched in yours. If TexMex combing Harden's beard gets you off, TexMex says do your thang homie and TexMex will type in the 3rd person whenever he feels like it since he permits you to let him into your sexual fantasies.

    Madmax was a real psycho, Westbrook is just stupid.

    Just like him picking up his 16th technical so now he is going to miss his next game due to league rules. That's great for his team since every game is HUGE right now due to playoff seeding, just a dumb player. He's the Forrest Gump of the NBA.

    Meanwhile in Harden's last game he went 41pts 11 dimes 9 boards 6 steals and 3 blocks.

    Dubs look much better without KD, which in turn makes him look like a bigger beta

    Russ isn’t stupid. He just can’t control the emotions he plays with which tends to be both a blessing and a curse for him.

    Anyway, OKC just lost 3 in a row. After winning every second of a game against Indiana they let them come back and win in the last minute. Then they get dominated by both Golden State which doesn’t surprise me and Miami which should surprise me but absolutely doesn’t.

    If you go back a page you’ll see two predictions I made about this team already came true. That PG’s MVP play was a mirage that would come back to earth and that OKC is not one of the better teams in the league. How can they be? Their defense is overrated and their offense is too inconsistent.

    Here’s one more prediction for this team. They’re once again not going to get out of the first round regardless of who they match up with, and that’s IF they even make the playoffs.

    It's been super quiet on the Lebron front.

    First year in the Western Conference, first year going home in April in 13 years.

    Dumbass Fucked Up By Seeking that 15 Minutes of Fame Though, Doing an Interview w/a Jazz Courtside Reporter...Soooooon as Dude Gave His Name, the Flood Gates Opened w/Screen Shots of the HATE he Spewed on Social Media...

    In Fairness, Bron Missed 18-20 Games and the Lakers WERE a 4th Seed @ the Time...

    They Free Fell from There and Even Bron Couldn't Pacify the BRUISED Egos of the Younger Players, Whose Names were Dangled in Anthony Davis Trade Talks...

    Agreed...

    Might Even Unseat RJ as the # 2 Pick Overall...Imagine a Backcourt of Devin Booker and Morant?...

    That was best thing that could happen to the Lakers, they go on a losing streak and win Zion; then they could opt to keep him or trade him for Davis straight up without giving up any one else

    REED:cool:[/QUOTE]

    Oscar Robertson did not instruct his teammates to box out for him so he could get his 10 rebounds. RW does, and will even steal a rebound from a teammate if need be. His triple doubles are manufactured, it's now a well known fact & is why no one even gives a shit about them anymore.

    Athletic? Why would that even matter? Touting his athletisim just means he's going to fall off quick, he'll it's happening now. Why? Because he is the same exact inefficient player he has always been.

    Aww, had never played PG before? Either did Harden in 2016, when he lead the league in assists (11.2) Makes that "argument" a joke.

    Are you saying WB has improved since his rookie year? What a revalation. In the past let's say, 7-8 years, name one thing besides stealing rebounds that he's improved on.

    The NBA is running a train on WB, Rubio was just an example when WB got his feelings hurt & felt the need to "lock down" Rubio. WB doesn't care about playing defense anymore, he will even leave his man to pursue those much needed rebounds. SMH.

    Oh you misquoted me big time, another sign that you know deep down WB is trash. Harden baits sucker ass players from reaching in and hitting his arms while taking it in to the rack, which is a foul, is it not?

    Dorky ass stats? You mean the stats every NBA front office use these days? They are called advanced stats and analytics, and because people like you and WB don't know anything about them have is why you got that confused look on your face when you see WB & team currently the 8th seed.

    WB is the 392 in TS%. I'm not mathmatical genius, but I have a feeling that means stop shooting so fucking much.

    If WB was a Rocket I'd put a bullet in my head.
