PG13 couldn't past the BIG 3.....

Huge difference to Lebron James (Single)....


Weird how PG13 (single) did better than PG13 when teamed with Westbrook (big 2). Almost like the results weren't because of him ...


Westbrook is a negative.

And only reason why OKC were decent last season was because of PG13.


Averaged 23 points and a triple double shooting 43% from the field and he's a negative ...


Yeap.

Shooting 43 percent, 29 from 3 land, 65 from the free throw line and playing zero DEFENSE.....

PG13 on the otherhand was legit 2 way stud until his shoulder started bugging again

Westbrook, the guy who lead the NBA last year in defensive rating part way through the year, played zero defense?

He doesn't shoot the ball as well from 3, but he out rebounds, out assists, and is just as good on defense as PG.

PG has never, and will never, lead a team to a championship. He's not that type of player. He will always be the guy who helps out

You obviously don't watch any of Westbrook's games.

I think his lineups did well on defense.
I felt his on-ball and team defense was lacking.
I was actually wondering if he was playing hurt most of last year.

His off the ball defense was great, his on the ball defense needs improving but he was genuinely a good defender last year. It wasn't about his lineups carrying him.

Cool. We'll just disagree.
