on the All-Time player list is Westbrook really ahead of his peers even?

Durant? no way
Curry? absolutely not
LeBron? not close
Giannis? for now, but 99.99% chance Giannis' career ends up better
Kawhi? no way
Harden? this is debatable

then let's think about it in terms of his own position. Westbrook is a SG in a PG body. was his peak even better than D Rose peak or CP3 or Nash?

honestly I think people will gush over the triple double record and his name will always be in that top 50 conversation, but his ego, inefficient chucking, and lack of hardware will keep him below top 25

Why are you always so bitter though my dude? You generally go out of your way to try and put down any player who is not on the Bucks essentially lol. He has one inefficient bad game and the insane numbers he put up the last 2~ months are suddenly disregarded and thrown out the window?

Of course people are gonna gush over the triple double records.. why wouldn't they? Do you not realize how incredibly hard it is to pull off the feat he has now accomplished in 4 different seasons.. Nobody ever thought anyone would sniff Oscars' record yet here we are.

Russ has a bad ego? Oooh, so you know him personally? There are numerous quality players hes played with (who actually know him), who have publicly stated that he's the best teammate they've ever played with. Stop buying into the media narrative that Russ is a bad guy/teammate lol.. He's an incredible leader despite his flaws.

Durant respects his work ethic but don’t pretend like Durant wasn’t visibly pissed when Westbrick would rear his ugly head in clutch moments bricking contested 3s. The Thunder had no business choking 3-1 but it was made possible largely because of Westbrook’s ego. Ask yourself who has had as much talent around him constantly and still has no hardware? This is one of only two years in his career where he hasn’t had at least one top 5-10 player next to him. If you’re really a top 25 all time player, that should be enough for at least one title by now (and it really should have been the Thunder instead of the Cavs but horrible bball IQ and ego prevented that)

Generally speaking I agree. Harden is obviously better.

And Westbrook > drose. And yes I’m giving drose the benefit of the doubt and ignoring his injuries.

Westbrook’s only real knock is that his efficiency is terrible, similar to Kobe. Which is also what brings Kobe out of the top 10 ever conversation.
