westbrook is barely a top 5 point guard

Steph, harden, chris paul are definitely above him.
You could make a case for john wall and isaiah, but i give westbrook a very slight edge over wall for 4th. There's definitely a case for wall though
bruh

westbrook is clearly #4 (if not higher). he's definitely a tier above wall


imo
1. curry
2. cp3
3. harden
4. westbrook
5. thomas
6. wall

Speaking of field goal %

People should now realize that Kobes percentages were good for sucha volume scorer

MJ is the only one to have such volume and stay around 50%

Kobe was around 45%

These younger guys keep going lower and its fucked up bc its so much easier to score nowadays than it used to be

LeBron James 50.1% FG% on 19.6 FGA/G and 4.1 3PA/G on 34.1% 3P%
Kobe Bryant 44.7% FG% on 19.5 FGA/G and 4.1 3PA/G on 32.9% 3P%
Kevin Durant 48.7 FG% on 18.9 FGA/G and 4.7 3PA/G on 38% 3P%
 
44.7% is still not that good

Can we stop acting like harden is getting screwed, mexi? Maybe if he played defense he'd have a better case........
Are you saying the Russell Westbrook plays defense?

My point is that harden's case is far from rock solid, which makes it easy for voters tinge swayed by Russell triple doubles.

If he tried playing defense, maybe he'd get more respect.

You're really reaching if you think harden is even an adequate defender

It's not like Russ is an adequate defender though

Kyrie gets it a decent amount.
 
Westbrook is an inconsistent defender.  Not necessarily a bad one.  He has the tools and the ability to be a good defender, but he's a huge gambler, and loses his man quite often because of it.
 
IT is a midget, so nobody expects him to be good.

they absolutely do

cc's point is that there is little that distinguishes harden from russ (record, slightly more efficient). If Harden played great d then it's an easy case, but since they're equal defenders he's not heads above the rest
