    +1 at the moment, though it should go up. This team can easily take care of the Rockets without Westbrook. I've never been that convinced that OKC is even that much of a better team with him in the lineup. I suppose now we get the chance to see.

    Couldn't agree more. Reggie running the point, should give what all okc fans want and that's more shots for durant.

      Durant will fill it up.

      He now has the opportunity to our the team on his back. He is plenty capable.

      OKC is still a better team than Houston. You don't et to the Finals being a two man show.

          You're insane.....RW is prob 4th-5th best player in the league. A 1 man fast break 1 on 3 or 4 and he still scores or gets fouled.

                While he may be a one man fast break, he also takes shots from durant

                  Westbrook has incredible talent. His potential is limitless. Doesn't change the fact that he's a scoring point guard on a team with an elite scorer, and he is constantly trying to shoot his way out of bad shooting games. In other words, in the games where he's "off," instead of deferring to Durant and becoming a facilitator, he just keeps firing and it affects how OKC plays. I'd love to see what their record has been when he shoots 20 or more times in a game vs. less than 20 through the years.

                  OKC is plenty capable -- and still better than Houston -- even without Westbrook. That was my main point. Let people overreact to him being out and bet accordingly, at least for this first game without him.

                    you're absolutely right (unless you're Jordan/Pippen) - but OKC was a 3 man show when they went to the finals.

                    stop letting it bother you so much....the thunder dont give a shit about you. go watch the movie Bronx Tale.

                        Im surprised you would say that they aren't that much better w/ him playing...Guy avg's 25 a game, he takes the sole pressure of durant to score... Now, you will see it get tougher for durant, and they lose his penetration skills and fast break ability...
