curry vs westbrook

[Jlamb47]

Scoring? Passing and Playmaking? How is not atleast arguably better?

Stephs faces more defensive attention and doesn't have the best player in the league to open up his game for him, and is still much more efficient. He even finishes at the rime at a higher rate than russ, albeit he takes less shots at the rim and is a much better mid range shooter and well a better shooter in general. Also stephs wouldn't take away shots from the best player in the league and he doesn't forces up terrible shots like russ because he cant control his 'alpha' and 'killer' instincts. Steph is one of the if not the most clutch player in the league. And came off of some very good postseason play last year.

Lol at the people acting like it isn't close

If westbrook was on the WArriors his numbers would probably be

26 6 8
Steph couldnt even breath on westbrook when trying to gaurd him

[Inferno]

Curry's definitely a better scorer

at some posters saying WB is a better one

[Jlamb47]

Curry 23.3ppg 8.5apg 4.3rpg 464% 415%

Westbrook 24.8ppg 8.3apg 6.7rpg 433% 349%

per 36 minutes this is the stats they are putting up. Now that is Westbrook being option #2 while coming off injury putting up BEAST stats.
If westbrook was on the Warriors he would be snapping harder. Hes putting up deadly numbers with the best player in the NBA. Oh Westbrook actually gaurds the best PG's in the league too while Curry let Klay Thompson do the dirty work on D

[ABfor3]

Westbrook would be averaging 26-28 points on the Warriors, it's a lot of shots being taken away from him while playing with the best scorer in the league. He's also a much better defender with his size and athleticism.

LOL AT WHAT EFFICIENCY? 35-40 % from the field? How many TO'S?

I'm sure if he was the main option on the team he would find a way to improve his shot selection

his FG% is already pretty average for a top player. it would only go down if he was the best offensive player on a team.
Curry :23.5PPG on 60.2TS%
Westbrook(last season): 23.2PPG on 53.2TS%

Curry is better offensively. unlike most great 3 point shooters, he can actually drive to the rim although not as well as westbrook.
One thing i don't like about westbrook is that when he decides to chuck then he would not pass to the open man no matter what happens. Curry rarely if ever does that when he has way more range than westbrook.

I'm sure if he was the main option on the team he would find a way to improve his shot selection

lol

Westbrook would probably shoot better if he had Currys stacked cast

Westbrook only has 1 teammate who is above average on offense

Curry has 5

Westbrook is a championship PG, Curry isnt

[scm5]

I would choose Curry.

Since Westbrook fanatics love going off of Per 36 stats:

Curry: 23.3 ppg / 8.5 apg
17.4 FGA
4.5 FTA
3.8 TO

Westbrook: 24.8 ppg / 8.3 apg
19.7 FGA
7.2 FTA
4.6 TO

Westbrook takes 2.3 FGA more, 2.7 FTA more, and turns the ball over .8 times more per game to score 1.5 points more and get .2 less assists than Curry.

That's at least 4 full possessions more that he takes to come up with roughly the equivalent of 1 more point.

Westbrook fanatics propping up his defense just because of how physical he is is ridiculous:

Curry goes offfffff on Westbrook while holding Westbrook to just below his career averages in FG% and 3FG%. 4.6 TO/gm?!?!?!?! Their rebounding averages are about the same too. The only thing Westbrook does better in any significant way is get steals.

Westbrook is a championship PG, Curry isnt

These are the Top 4 players offensively after Curry/Westbrook respectively:

Klay Thompson: 18.2 ppg on 44% FG.
David Lee: 18.5 ppg on 52.5% FG
Andre Iguodala: 9.3 ppg on 46.9% FG
Harrison Barnes: 9.5 ppg on 39.5% FG

Kevin Durant: 31.9 ppg on 51% FG
Serge Ibaka: 15.3 ppg on 54% FG
Reggie Jackson: 13.1 ppg on 43.5% FG
Jeremy Lamb: 8.9ppg on 43% FG

Please, tell me more about Curry's 5 players above average on offense and Westbrook's 1.

Hi,

Westbrook might guard Steph, but it doesn't mean he does a good job.

http://www.basketball-reference.com/...1&p2=westbru01

Well above career averages.

That is all.

[Haks]

shooting 43% with the best player in the league yet when he supposedly leads a team he will average more points lololol

[All Net]

Westbrook

Does more IMO...

You do know playing with the best player in the NBA only inflates stats and doesn't hurt them right? If he wasn't playing with said "BPITNBA" and was in Curry's situation with nobody to play off of and chuck at times, his efficiency would ****ing plummet. And if Curry got all those 1 on 1 Match ups and open looks, lord knows how deadly he would be......

EVEN with this Curry is still a better scorer, playmaker and more efficient.
