Westbrook was never one of my favorite players during most of his prime, but seeing how Westbrook has handled his last few years helped me gain a lot of respect for him.

Sure he never was the lead guy on a championship team, but his competitiveness is amazing. He played his best through all the Lakers drama. Westbrook also put up 37 in a playoff game in the most recent playoffs. I'm quite a huge fan of this late-career Westbrook.

Kobe - when I first started following the NBA as a kid, Kobe was the player I liked to root against. Near the end of his career I had nothing but love for him.

John Stockton played like this as well. He was known for his longevity over athleticism but when you go back and watch clips he absolutely had a turbo button when he needed it.

Athleticism is insanely hard to guard against when you don’t know when you opponent is going to actually use it
