The NBA is so deep right now. You could slide Chris Paul anywhere from 5-10 and I would not really argue it.

Every GM in the league would take Westbrook over Cousins, and most would take Westbrook over Harden too. You have Harden too high for sure.

I hear you on Love and the stats. I just have trouble with guys like that can't play a lick of defense. Harden fits there too.

CJ I love Westbrook. He is a top 5 guy. But Im saying right now. And right now he is still getting back in the flow of things and shoting around 40%.....
I love Westbrook as much as Big Game James. Plus Westbrook has proved me way wrong because I thought he was a bum coming out of UCLA. I love the athletic combo guards.
If I had to name my personal top 5.

Lebron
George
Harden
Westbrook
Love

You haven't watched Westbrook lately...he has a near triple double every night the last two weeks. He'll ever be a great shooter, but he does everything else.

Serious question....
If the finals is Miami vs OKC what will be different from a few years ago?
I mean even Beasley is producing now and rumor is Oden is healthy, but Riley insists on saving him for the playoff run. Clearly thats smart.

I'll believe Oden when I see it.

I don't know if the Thunder can beat Miami, but they are clearly a better team now than two years ago. Remember, Harden pulled a vanishing act.

The defense is great, the bench is better, and the Big 3 are all clearly better players than they were two years ago. The Heat were also insanely hot from 3 that series. Battier, Miller and Chalmers were making everything. Other than the last game, they were all close.

Also, Dwayne Wade just isn't the same guy he was then. Some nights he is, but we'll see come playoff time what he can deliver. Like I said, I don't know if the Thunder would win, but I think they would give Miami all they wanted. The Thunder are better than the Spurs and were last year too, the Spurs were just some bad coaching decisions from beating the Heat.

D. Wade confuses me. There was talk last year about him going overseas and having the same procedure Kobe had. It just seems like instead of focusing on ball he is modeling and doing everything else. All that said he is still probably the 3rd best 2 guard of all time and a true warrior. But imagine if he was healthy the last few years, and the next few years?
