    If Eric Gordon can play the 2 (At 6'3) then Westbrook should have no problems making the transition.

          I guess I'm in the minority here, but I don't have a problem with Westbrook's game. He's a great scorer, so I say let him do what he does best. Quick shots are fine if they are good looks.

          But yeah, he does look for his shot a lot, and I think that's ok. I would rather have him looking to score, then try to change his game into something he's not.

          I see a lot of dislike for Russel's game, but I think he's a very dynamic player.

            It was good once the game was out of hand. Clips missed a ton of open shots and layups in first half. Like I said one of those nights. Take your lumps and move on.

              Spurs just have a lot more cohesion than must other teams. Doesn't meam we'll dominate all season or anything. The Clippers will be okay, but they really need to improve on the defensive end, IMO.

                They do. Lots of new faces with short prep time. Not sure they are a playoff team but they should be better as the season goes on.

                  Knicks going with the full court press? Crazy. Melo hustling on D quite a bit too. Looks like D'antoni is trying to get them to play some D after all.

                    No one's disputing whether or not he's a good player. He can be just as good as D-Rose. His god given talent level is that high. He's just not a PG. PG's with any semblance of court vision do not chuck like Westbrook chucks.

                      I don't dislike his game...more so his shot selection at times.Its almost like he has the Kobe syndrome, except his bad shots don't go in like Kobe's used to.

                          Golden State were horrendous that quarter but the Knicks can only manage a two point lead.

                            I wouldn't have a problem with his decision making if he wasn't ever so conveniently playing right next to the back to back scoring champion.

                              I suppose he made the switch to Pg in the NBA since he was too small? I've never understood that (Why 6'2, 6'3 guards switch to PG) considering D-Wade is roughly the same height. A few inches isn't going to hurt you all that much on defense. Especially if you have the speed and quickness advantage that players like a Wade or a Westbrook posses.
