What's new

Russell Westbrook and the Utah Jazz

I wouldn't have let Harden go, that's for sure, and I had stated this before he left. And we all know OKC's biggest weakness is a scorer inside. That was evident before Harden left, so yes, if I were GM, they likely would've won a title by now. Hey, but I'm only Eenie-Meenie and don't get the respect I deserve -- like RD.

How do you like your cookies? Warm and gooey or cold and crisp?
 
So did you watch last night's game? Westbrook made some phenomenal plays but OKC lost and Durant was taken out of the game for long periods because Westbrook was doing all this one-on-one stuff and took a lot of ill-advised shots. The guy is not good for team chemistry.
 
You guys complain about Trey shooting too much and now you want Westbrook. The Guy missed 20+ shots to get his 30 pts.
 
Beside the fact that he has had two major injuries to his knees, I think the kid has a ton of talent but are his numbers helping the team win. It is debatable.

To some extent, but I seriously believe that they would be better off with Reggie Jackson at the point and Westbrook on the bench. He is not good for chemistry. He needs to play under more control. And they should post up Durant against Allen. But they won't do it because of Westbrook, but it may be a way to get him to look for the pass more instead of taking on three guys for his shot.

Ya westbrook doesnt fit well on that team.

He needs to be on a team where he is The Man
 
I haven't read through the thread yet - but NO THANKS! Westbrook is extremely talented and an athletic anomaly for the position, but he's way too unreliable as he's got no feel for the position. There is a distinct line for point guards between fearlessness and recklessness, and he crosses it way too much for my liking (or heart would be able to handle should he be in a Jazz uniform).

If we had no PG, then I'd be much more interested but I'd rather roll the dice with Trey!

I think he messes with OKC's chemistry, but what about a team where he is clearly the best player? That might be a damn good team.
