The times of having traditional PG's aka Stocktons is over. You need to be able to score and take pressure off your other star.
Westbrook is widely considered a top 5-7 player in the NBA.
If those three guys were fully healthy right now I would take any of them over Westbrook without thinking twice. Rondo is still trying to shake off his rust, Wade is only able to play 2/3 of the games because of his knees, and Kobe is getting very good at sitting in a chair watching his team. Otherwise yes they are definitely better players than Westbrook. Look beyond the stats.

Because I wasn't allowed to register until January.

Westbrook's skills are rusty from injury no doubt but his usual stupidity in decision making appears to be in top form. However, like I said before the blame has to go to Brooks because he lets him get away with it. If Tony Parker was a career 30% three point shooter and just came down the floor and launched a 28 foot three pointer with defense draped all over him Popovich would have blown a gasket, held him accountable and reamed him in front of everyone. Westbrook continues to get a pass on his WTF shot selection and it's clear in his mind he has the green light to take any kind of shot no matter how dumb and ill-timed it may be. He's never going to grow as a floor general that way. OKC needs a coaching change in the worst way. Brooks is just an enabler of bad habits.

Scott Brooks should be let go, I don't know how many chances their going to give this guy, but it's clear he is not the coach to lead them to a title.

Such a stupid statement. Rondo has a ring, Westbrook doesnt. Who was the last PG like Westbrook or Rose to win a ring?

Isiah Thomas but he was a much smarter player.
