No not really. Through the first 3 rounds he was shooting 48%. That's crazy good efficiency.


Doesn't the seesaw get old though?

I think I would rather have somebody who doesn't have the same ceiling as Westbrook, but is instead consistently good, over a guy who is so up and down.

You can't tell Phail that Westbrook isn't consistently good. He'll just reply as if you don't know how to watch and evaluate basketball players.

I would like to express a sincere thank you to BoneKrusher for the badass sig and userbar.

Of course it does, but you have to keep in mind he's 23 years old and is nowhere near his prime. He came into the league as a very raw product. No one thought he'd be more than a defensive role player. Give him another 2-3 years. He's too young to receive the criticism he gets.

Well, I've watched at least 275+ Thunder games and the national NBA sports media agrees with me so I'm pretty confident I'm in the right.

RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:13 AM) makes me wanna puke
BLUE  : (19 June 2013 - 12:13 AM) You can always drop him if it worries you. :D
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:13 AM) I want to see the Heat trade away Wade and Bosh :laugh:
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:13 AM) Ehh, I will suffer. Haha. Thanks for your concern though Blue
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:13 AM) ;)
BLUE  : (19 June 2013 - 12:14 AM) His walk rates weren't bad in the minors though, in all seriousness. He was just amped up and full of adrenaline for tonight.
BradyFan81  : (19 June 2013 - 12:14 AM) those fans don't deserve that teams
BradyFan81  : (19 June 2013 - 12:14 AM) how mad are Spurs fans right now though?
BLUE  : (19 June 2013 - 12:15 AM) And Harvey dominated in the first game. Best double-header ever. :yep:
Bay  : (19 June 2013 - 12:15 AM) There's still some good pitchers to be had ;)
BLUE  : (19 June 2013 - 12:15 AM) We're still miles away, but please be good Harvey and Wheeler.
Socal  : (19 June 2013 - 12:16 AM) Fuck Dale Thayer GDIAF
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:18 AM) I'd just think it would be awesome for the Heat to tell Wade to fuck off because they want to rebuild with Lebron. Ha
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:18 AM) Although, I dunno why Lebron would want to do that.
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:20 AM) Probably run back to Cleveland. Their core will be so epic...
JetsFan4Life  : (19 June 2013 - 12:24 AM) Yeah lebron won't be sticking around for any rebuilds anywhere.
BradyFan81  : (19 June 2013 - 12:27 AM) if the Heat win then I don't think they'll be changing anything for a while
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:28 AM) Big 3s contracts are up soon, though, aren't they?
Socal  : (19 June 2013 - 12:28 AM) Striking out on a foul tip to end the game, gayest shit ever
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:28 AM) Bosh is ass, and Wade is only good for a game a week with his knees
Socal  : (19 June 2013 - 12:29 AM) go kill yourself, Dale Thayer, ruining the Padres streak
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:29 AM) Lebron SHOULD be out no matter what
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:29 AM) If he was intelligent
BLUE  : (19 June 2013 - 12:32 AM) LeBron can opt out after next season, I think.
Sarge+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:33 AM) The worst part of the Spurs losing tonight is Duncan had himself a game... 30 points 17 rebounds at age 37. Who does that?
Sarge+  : (19 June 2013 - 12:34 AM) Feel bad for Timmy. :(
funnygunny  : (19 June 2013 - 12:34 AM) tim tebow?
funnygunny  : (19 June 2013 - 12:34 AM) or should i say, TOM TEBOW
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 June 2013 - 12:35 AM) Adam Kilgore ✔ @AdamKilgoreWP "Show up tomorrow ready to eat somebody's face." -- Jayson Werth on how he gets over losses.
Tridentdawgp...  : (19 June 2013 - 12:35 AM) Sure, Jayson. Why not?
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 12:56 AM) Miller can only beat what is put in front of him and for the most part, he did that to an elite level. No pass-rusher is going to beat the offense on every single snap, but Miller is definitely a creator of his own production rather than a benefactor of teammates or offensive futility.
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 12:57 AM) The most telling part of the above chart is Miller’s time to sack the quarterback. If you take out the two sacks when he caught the quarterback from a coverage assignment, the 3.29 number drops to 2.75 seconds per sack. That kind of speed from a position lined up next to the defensive line puts a huge amount of pressure on the quarterback to get rid of the football.
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 12:57 AM) http://presnapreads....ason/#more-1155
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 01:00 AM) Even if his sack numbers falter over the rest of his career, Miller isn’t a sack specialist from the point of view that that is his strength. I’m not sure Miller really has a strength. He does everything well and while that can be seen as a negative to some, he does everything so well that it makes him an elite defender and one of the very best young players in the league.
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:01 AM) How is doing everything well a negative?
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:01 AM) He sucks at nothing. Send him to Green Bay
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 01:02 AM) Well Erik Walden is terrible at everything and he gets paid.
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 01:02 AM) so being good at everything must be a bad thing
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:02 AM) lol
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:02 AM) Touche
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:15 AM) I like what you said about Miller largely being responsible for his own production Raz
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:15 AM) i think thats his strongest feature
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:16 AM) you can stick him in any defensive scheme and hed get pressure in the backfield
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:26 AM) Dude, you could line him up at CB and he would shut down Megatron
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 01:28 AM) well maybe not that far :p
RazorStar  : (19 June 2013 - 01:54 AM) You could line him up at Corner and he would sack megatron for a loss
Favre4Ever+  : (19 June 2013 - 02:01 AM) haha
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 02:02 AM) lulz
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 02:02 AM) im out dudes
RANGA+  : (19 June 2013 - 02:02 AM) cya later
