He’s gotta be up there for most offensive boards for a guard

[–] HeHateMex2@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Westbrook would be a contender for GOAT if he had LeFraud’s teammates

[–] montrezlh@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

He had the exact same teammates as lefraud for a bit. Surely he excelled during that time and propelled his GOAT case?

2017 Russ was basically a 2000s Bron redux season if you think about it.

[–] sector_nectar@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I agree with you.

But if Lebron started with KD instead of Big Z

[–] Aaronrigunay@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Crazy for someone who only averages 6 reb per game in his career.

[–] Sheepherrg@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Cut this bum and give his minutes to bones

[–] Accomplifhg@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I sure hope Harden is making the most of Westbrook's sacrifice... Sure would be awkward if he was continuing to suck just as hard.

Stat padding offensive rebounds smh

unironically most lakers fans

[–] odnamAE@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Well if you play for the Lakers and your name isn’t Austin Reaves you have been shat on by the Laker fanbase over the post championship years.

They changed the rules. He used to leave the circle and walk to half court between shots. He also used to take his time. The rule change required him to remain in the circle between attempts. His percentage dropped after this change.

[–] HitboxOfASnail@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

as a russ fan, reading all these response about how great his rebounding is, after this sub convinced itself for years that his rebounding was forced stat padding , is crazy whiplash

[–] AlHorfordHighlights@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You're right those are the only two opinions you can have

[–] HBSBrook@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It will be easy to measure if he is stat padding rebounds

Look at % of offensive vs. defensive and compare it to the league average
Dive deeper and look at points off saved possessions and compare it to the league average (not sure where to find this data though)

Raw numbers don't say much.
