I have Dwill at 1 and CP3 at 2...

But my goodness, Russell Westbrook is making a STRONG case for being in that conversation.

He scores from everywhere (could still improve the jumpshot, but it's getting there) he's the best rebounding guard, and his decision making and PG ability is really starting to develop. Remember, this guy was a 2 who the Thunder made a PG. What he's doing is absurd.

38 points, 15 boards and what, 8 or 9 dimes?

Plus he's a hell of a defender.

I still have Kidd and Rondo ahead of him as best rebounding guard, not ready to bestow that honor on Westbrook yet.

Agreed.


But I am ready to move Westbrook into my top 5.

Paul/Dwill are way to good to be 1/2 and instead 1a and 1b
Nash
Westbrook
Rondo


Gotta put Rondo below WB because WB is a better scorer and I think Rondo is helped a lot by having 3 hall of fame worthy scorers.

I really think Westbrook might be the Thunders best player, and I'm a huge Durant fan. Westbrook is just ridiculous, and I think he's still getting better. At this point, I would put him in the top 3 PG category.

I guess he could have been talking about Juan Williams, he did kick the Presidents butt in a one on one game.

What another great game by Rondo 12 pts 19 Assists --- That makes his 8th game of the year with 15+ Assists already --- Also KG looks like the 07' Garnett tonight with 20pts 17Rbs, C's win streak now reaches 6

Just heard a stat during the Pacers Suns game last night that blew my mind. Steve Nash has NEVER had a game where he had more turnovers than assists!

So the Cavs are down 102-69 to the 4-15 Timberwolves in the 3rd quarter.

Kevin Love is doing it again, with 28 and 19 boards, shooting 5/5 on 3s. The Timberwolves are 16/20 from deep as a team. And oh yeah, that's 1 more rebound than the entire Cavs team has.

Ridiculous numbers by Love. I didn't think he would ever be able to do what he is doing in the NBA.

Off the top of my head and not really thinking about it, I'd say he's the best PF in the game right now...
