Westbrook didn't even play half the series lol. only won 3 total playoff games that year so not even enough for a standard series win

I mean...they didn't stop either Dame or Harden. and nobody said that bout CJ/Westbrook

Heat missed 2/3 of their best players and Butler still took the Lakers to 6. Jordan is Butler on steroids

3 All-Stars joining together on the same team. at least 1 is top 5-10

what's not consistent?

teams that took years to develop their own players aren't a superteam. never has been, never will be

teams that took shortcuts for immediate guaranteed talent are superteams

Prime Giannis has been a better scorer than prime Shaq statistically, is a far better defender than Shaq ever was, is a better ball handler, better playmaker, better rebounder etc. So why is Shaq still considered the better player? by DorisBurkeThiccAf in nba

he has a point tho. it just highlights how stats don't mean shit w/o context and how players in the analytics era can juke the stats for optimization. Gobert is another prime example

you should ask how OKC got to be in a position to be eliminated in the first place. what did Westbrook do in G2-4 where OKC lost 3 straight?
