It's pretty damn cool. George Karl thinks were for real but still says OKC is best in west. Can't blame him for that. They would be extremely tough in the playoffs.
OKC is established. They've been to the finals. They have two legitimate All-Stars, and one is a superstar. Here's the thing though, I would take Dame over Westbrook in a second. Westbrook is a ball hog. He has an ego the size of OKC. He's going to leave. I really wouldn't be surprised to see him go to LA when he's a free agent.
I absolutely agree. Westbrook is a chump. He lets his emotions get the best of him and more than not his team suffers for it. Prime example is when he played us and we got in his head. Dame is loyal, calm, collected and has the heart of a winner. He has already came out and said he would like to spend his career here.
I'll take Portland and not because I'm biased. This won't make any sense but I think they have the it factor. I think they have the better coach and better team from a chemistry standpoint. That and they fight and gut games out like no other team in the game. They played a pretty good Detroit team the other night and probably should have lost like Indy did. But they didnt all due to the fight in the dog.
Westbrook's problem is that he actually believes he's the best player on that team. You can just tell. He thinks he's better than Durant. That team will never succeed as long as Westbrook thinks he's the man.
If their coach was any good, he would sit RW down and explain it to him. "Russ, you're not the best player on this team. You are the Robin, not the Batman. Kevin is much better than you."
Wes said it the best " we're not the cool kids, were dogs." And they sure are playing like it. Gritty and with a chip on their shoulder!
That conversation has already probably taken place. Not in such kind words tho.. Haha. I don't think the kid cares
All you need to do is watch Westbook run his mouth on the court and the way he "celebrates", and gloats, when he thinks he's hit a game winner. Then watch Dame. It's Day and Night. Westbrook is an ego maniac.
They sure did! Harden and Durant played well together, but Harden would of had a hard time deferring to Durant too as he really came into his own. I would have still taken my chances with harden tho.
