I totally agree. It's just because he doesn't pass every possession on a garbage team, he's a ballhog. Just because KD doesn't get to shoot every possession, he's considered a ballhog. He's one of the best scorers in the league and he has to do what he does to win.
Russell Westbrook is HANDS DOWN the best PG in the league. He plays intense D, passes well, rebounds, finishes at the rim, great pull up jumper, and has insane athleticism. There is no competition here. He completely took over OKC in the playoffs this year showing why it's his team.
There were like 5 times in the last 1 min that westbrook makes unbelievable Plays that steal with 10 sec to go and basket, that is where westbrook excelles he managed to do what he wants, not what the defanse gives him west is really a mini lebron Lol with more quickness a 6'3" 195 lbs pg is rebouding better than 6'8" 250 lbs lebron this postseason, embarasing let me give you numbers 27 ppg 7.3 rpg 8.1 aps 2.2 steals per game i forsee a season for the ages from this duo 2014-2015 will be 1 to be remembered 100 %
Stats are overrated..Seriously Russell is the best point guard in the league. Why its simple basketball 101. Nobody can guard him in half court or full court. If you dont believe me go watch Russell against Tony Parker and Chris Paul. He killed them, they really couldnt stop him....Everyone has there own opinion, and i can respected Chris Paul being statistically better or Tony parker being a 4x champion but i respect the old school ways of settling who's better...look at when they play each other and who dominates the match-up from the eye test perspective(no stats) its always Russell win or lose
I agree, stats aren't everything. But personally I think Westbrook is the 3rd best PG after CP3 and Rondo. Westbrook plays too out of control at times, and that's why I don't put him as #1. Although if he did play with more control he would easily be the best because he is a great defender and arguably the best rebounding guard in the game.
I completely agree, Russell is the best. I don't fear any other pg giving me 40pts and 10assist(in a playoff game). Russell was also the only player to have 3 plus triple doubles in the playoffs this yr, that says something
People that say, "Stats aren't everything" are hilarious. They'll say the eye test says this or that. But what evidence do you have for him being better or not better than another player? I could just as easily say Kyle Lowry is better than Westbrook. He just has the heart of a champion. He plays fierce and never gives up any games. Is that true because I saw it? And whats the first thing you would go to to say I'm wrong? The stats. He doesn't score as much as Westbrook, right? My point is you can't have it both ways and have your personal eye test determine who is better and who is not, or have your stats confirm your own bias. The only way to truly determine who is better and who is not is the collective stats of the player and achievements.
If stats were everything then Thad Young could've been an all-star last year. 18 pts 6 rebs over 2 steals per. If your team is bad then your going to score a lot of points. If you have good shooters your going to get a lot of assists
Russell and Durant on the same team just isn't fair. You have two freak of natures that are special in their own way. I'm just glad the Thunder don't have Harden anymore. The 3 together would be some 2K bullshit.
Lillard, Curry and Irving don't play defense guys. I would have 1. Parker because he has 3 rings and a finals MVP 2/3 Rondo or CP3 4. Westbrook 5. John Wall 6. Curry 7. Kyrie 8. Lillard 9. Lawson 10. Lowry
Westbrook is a beast but he should be at the 2 guard. Not saying hes a bad point guard but he is a pure scorer. He can still bring the ball up court and all but he is built to be a score first type player
if you have ever had the chance to see this dude play in person, you would undoubtedly consider him the best athlete in the world, including lebron james. #freakofnature #anotherplanet
dont come here saying westbrook > Durant admire westbrooks amazing play and stop hating on kd saying westbrook is clutch is totaly not true, 30.1 % on clutch shots ( 5 min till end 5point differential) and KD choked BUt he only shot 52 % on clutch shots ( all playoff stats) WESTBROOK = BEAST DURANT = getting to much hate, kinda like lebron before his ring, meaning, next year is okcS YEAR !!!!
shut up , ima thunder fan and those are my two favorite playes but there is no reason to type out a paragraph off bullshit when nobody is going let you stop them from voicing their opinion
***** Yeah taking a contested three when he could've blown past CP3 and getting lucky that CP3 fouled him in the last seconds is clutch sure and he takes those shots all the time
Not gonna lie i dont understand how people can think the D rose is better than Westbrook. Westbrook is clearly the better player i understand that D rose may be the better PG but at the end of the day westbrook is more athletic (fact), is a better dunker, and at the end of the day he is simply just the better player so therefore he is the better player even if at the point guard position.
Actually, D-Rose isn't really that better of a PG. If you compare them side-by-side, they're eerily similar. The only big difference is that Westbrook is a WAAAAY better defender.
bullshit. not a big fan of westbrook but he can school them, i will only take rondo because he can pass and rebound but westbrook is a rebounding beast too.
Westbrook is great but I can't say he's the best pg. He's not the best at anything Shooter - Curry Finishing - Rose/Parker Passing - Rondo/CP3 IQ - Parker Defence - CP3 Clutch - Lillard Speed and Quickness - Wall I just think he has athleticism over everyone but he has to compete with Rose and Wall on that category. Kyrie just has handles over everyone lol
TmacAdubBoy good point. Russell Westbrook is a natural leader. He's not waiting for anyone. KD is a great scorer but I think Russ has a greater impact on the team.
I'm a die hard okc fan. But Westbrook is not a true point guard. He's a good combo guard.. We need somebody like a Bledsoe because Reggie Jackson struggles from time to time
"D-rose doesnt have Westbrooks athleticism" Are you people on drugs? D-Rose can shoot,finish,dunk as good if not better than Westbrook!! Im a huge Westbrook fan but lets give credit where credit is due..the only downside to Rose is his durability
NBA rings are overrated,well at least to me.Wanna know the easiest way to get a ring? Get yourself 3 or 4 dollars and go to Walmart and buy yourself a plastic ring
One of my favorite players. So explosive and crazy athletic! Beast
Such an underrated passer at times
I totally agree. It's just because he doesn't pass every possession on a garbage team, he's a ballhog. Just because KD doesn't get to shoot every possession, he's considered a ballhog. He's one of the best scorers in the league and he has to do what he does to win.
+oblockbangbang Westbrook could easily average 10 assists a game but he has to be a ball hog sometimes.
Why does he have to be a ballhog? He has Kevin Durant on his team.
CJ Johnson Because Durant can't score 60 pts every game
CJ Johnson Unless you think Durant is going to score 100 every night, Westbrook has to get his.
It's so crazy how Westbrook explodes into a dunk out of nowhere.
Russell Westbrook is HANDS DOWN the best PG in the league. He plays intense D, passes well, rebounds, finishes at the rim, great pull up jumper, and has insane athleticism. There is no competition here. He completely took over OKC in the playoffs this year showing why it's his team.
He is the most entertaining player to watch in the NBA . other than being the best guard in the NBA .
There were like 5 times in the last 1 min that westbrook makes unbelievable Plays
that steal with 10 sec to go and basket, that is where westbrook excelles
he managed to do what he wants, not what the defanse gives him
west is really a mini lebron Lol with more quickness
a 6'3" 195 lbs pg is rebouding better than 6'8" 250 lbs lebron this postseason, embarasing
let me give you numbers
27 ppg 7.3 rpg 8.1 aps 2.2 steals per game
i forsee a season for the ages from this duo
2014-2015 will be 1 to be remembered 100 %
westbrook outplayed durant in the playoffs
Can you even count?
YaoKnowWhat I Ming wtf
George Astafyev KD numbers weren't that bad. KD did show up versus the Spurs.
YaoKnowWhat I Ming especially in game 2
They posted similar stats...
He need to be in the dunk contest. His power in the dunks are crazy

well said sir

Westbrook might be the NBA's most athletic point guard.... ever
Give that man his own franchise!
Great job on the video NBAClutchTime !
Russell and Durant on the same team just isn't fair. You have two freak of natures that are special in their own way. I'm just glad the Thunder don't have Harden anymore. The 3 together would be some 2K bullshit.
Russel Westbrook
Stephen Curry
Damain Lillard
Derrick Rose
Kyrie Irving
Might not be the best PG right now but he's the best all around PG
best gaurd in the nab period sg or pg
My favorite player and my favorite team OKC
0:40 that's all power right there. sounded like a gun being fired ..)
Most explosive player in the nba !
the real MVP
🔥🔥
Those 2 plays vs memphis were absolutely huge
Best athlete in the NBA, straight up

Wall
Dragic
1. Paul
2. Westbrook

4. Curry
5. Lillard
D.rose
R.westbrook
D.lillard
S.curry

Fahad Rafi Rose ??? Seriously ? Even when he came back Isaiah Thomas was better than him.

I wish Westbrook could somehow put a gopro on his head because seeing a first person perspective of this would be awesome.
This dude is tooooo athletic it's not fair
Holy crap Russell Westbrook is dunking on people like crazy.
Most athletic point ever to play in the NBA
westbrook has a nice leap to his jumpers
These dunks are vicious
Can u make a iguodala video from this season?
0:11 layup???
Who's better Westbrook or Rose
Iverson w/ dunking ability...he's just that fast.
,,,he's a tweener...between a pg and a sg..can play both
Miss the thunder
Westbrook is a beast but he should be at the 2 guard. Not saying hes a bad point guard but he is a pure scorer. He can still bring the ball up court and all but he is built to be a score first type player
He's my favorite pg. I know cp3 is better but westbrook went through paul like nothing because of his speed and athleticism
Paul ain’t better now lol
if you have ever had the chance to see this dude play in person, you would undoubtedly consider him the best athlete in the world, including lebron james. #freakofnature #anotherplanet
He got manu good at 10:06 with that hesitation.
0:39 I seriously do not understand how a practical human being limited by the forces of gravity and friction does that
dont come here saying westbrook > Durant
admire westbrooks amazing play and stop hating on kd
saying westbrook is clutch is totaly not true, 30.1 % on clutch shots ( 5 min till end 5point differential) and KD choked BUt he only shot 52 % on clutch shots
( all playoff stats)
WESTBROOK = BEAST
DURANT = getting to much hate, kinda like lebron before his ring, meaning, next year is okcS YEAR !!!!
shut up , ima thunder fan and those are my two favorite playes but there is no reason to type out a paragraph off bullshit when nobody is going let you stop them from voicing their opinion
and Westbrook is clutch
westrook > durant last time i checked
***** Yeah taking a contested three when he could've blown past CP3 and getting lucky that CP3 fouled him in the last seconds is clutch sure and he takes those shots all the time
***** George Astafyev
Westbrook was 1-21 in overtime during the playoffs. You call that shit clutch?
Where does he get that speed from?!? Dang..
4:39 Oh damn
The most agressive PG of all-time
You should make a brandon jennings one
Post more Brandon Roy videos or make the private videos public again
KD is the MVP and better player but Westbrook is okc's most important player no doubt
8:12 that's his layup animation in 2k15
0:11
"Layup"
Why has this guy never had posterizer on NBA 2k?? Not as many this year but still..
Make a Paul George offense highlights.
MOST EXCITING PLAYER IN THE NBA NOW
There is NOBODY in the NBA. More Athletic!!! Westbrook
I know!!!
I think if sefalosha(?) Has another season like last year they might as well let him go.
Westbrook was the best player in the playoffs
Hear his scream at 2:21
Rondo is the purest pg in the game
westbrook got that hangtime
its all about rose!
MANE HE IZ SO FAST DATS THA MAIN REASON Y NOBODY CAN GUARD HIM CUZ HIS HANDLES ND HIS SPEED
He good but idk how long he gon play because he plays so fierce
Not gonna lie i dont understand how people can think the D rose is better than Westbrook. Westbrook is clearly the better player i understand that D rose may be the better PG but at the end of the day westbrook is more athletic (fact), is a better dunker, and at the end of the day he is simply just the better player so therefore he is the better player even if at the point guard position.
Actually, D-Rose isn't really that better of a PG. If you compare them side-by-side, they're eerily similar. The only big difference is that Westbrook is a WAAAAY better defender.
I agree 100% with you both
yea westbrook is a better athlete but Rose is faster and slimmer while westbrook is bigger stronger and explodes to the rim he is quick too
ThunderUp
Do you all realize that the fastest players are the best on fastbreaks
every highlight is against memphis
Who is more explosive than Westbrook?
- Derrick rose
That was before he was injured.
He probably still is.
MII TOP 5 PG'S ARE
1.KYRIE IRVING
2.RAJON RONDO
3.DERON WILLIAMS
4.JOHN WALL
5.TONY PARKER
deron williams hasn't been good for a long time
bullshit. not a big fan of westbrook but he can school them, i will only take rondo because he can pass and rebound but westbrook is a rebounding beast too.
i didn't say anything about westbrook.
Horrible list
Horrible list your spectating is terrible
Westbrook is great but I can't say he's the best pg. He's not the best at anything
Shooter - Curry
Finishing - Rose/Parker
Passing - Rondo/CP3
IQ - Parker
Defence - CP3
Clutch - Lillard
Speed and Quickness - Wall
I just think he has athleticism over everyone but he has to compete with Rose and Wall on that category. Kyrie just has handles over everyone lol
Russ picked Conley EZ!
the only thing stopping westbrook is westbrook. dude has to trust his team more.
He do ,but when you got penkins at center and Thabo at Sg idk
TmacAdubBoy good point. Russell Westbrook is a natural leader. He's not waiting for anyone. KD is a great scorer but I think Russ has a greater impact on the team.
YOU can't guard this dude
I didn't know Westbrook used to cook cp3.
Im sorry but cp3 is not the top pg anymore this guy plays with no heart anymore. He's such a on and off type player.
I'd be scared shitless to be matched up against Westbrook
damn that boy conley got owned so bad by westbrook during the grizz and okc playoffs. lmaooo
I'm a die hard okc fan. But Westbrook is not a true point guard. He's a good combo guard.. We need somebody like a Bledsoe because Reggie Jackson struggles from time to time
GO SPURS GO
Clutch as fuck
Where's the fundamentals gonna be when that athleticism is gone?
He is still savvy getting to the hoop on some layups as well.
westbrook takes no easy shots
"D-rose doesnt have Westbrooks athleticism" Are you people on drugs? D-Rose can shoot,finish,dunk as good if not better than Westbrook!! Im a huge Westbrook fan but lets give credit where credit is due..the only downside to Rose is his durability
better than durant
durant is better scorer but westbrook got more power
i think westbrook is a great player but at many times he always try to make something out of nothing and force the issue.
Westbrook would shit on Drose
He doesn't care if he falls to the floor a hundred times a night....HE WILL CONTINUE ATTACKING THAT HOLE!!!!!!!!!!!
fastest point guard?
Westbrook
Wall
Rose
he better den rose
drose is good but is injury prone and not as strong
Steph still the best tho
Westbrook+Derrick Rose>Irving+Chris Paul
lol dude so violant
This is not a human FUCKING being...Like...
Damn shame
NBA rings are overrated,well at least to me.Wanna know the easiest way to get a ring? Get yourself 3 or 4 dollars and go to Walmart and buy yourself a plastic ring
