Overrated... probably DRose. Dudes on here swearing he's top 3 player in the league and the savior of Chicago. Yesterday I read a comment on youtube that said he was going to lead Chicago to 6 more rings

He's solid, but Rose=Westbrook. NOBODY is saying that about Westbrook.

Underrated? Definitely Dennis Johnson. RIP.

EDIT: at D12 with that ether

That MVP

Lol only diehard Bulls homers are saying that B. I've seen him being underrated recently. And please stop with the Rose = Westbrook crap. At their best, Westbrook is a notch below Rose.

You could legitimately argue Russy is equal to or better than Pooh.

lol..no...no you couldnt!

 

[champcruthik]

When has Rose ever posted 23/7.5/5 playing second fiddle to KD.

 

[tyonenine]

lol..no...no you couldnt!

Check the numbers

 

[shoeking2101]

His shooting was better than the black Jason Williams though.

Damn, I guess this went over everybody's heads disregard

 

[victor page]

I don't have a problem with the argument...but literally NONE of you were saying that before Rose went down.

Rose's MVP season was 25/7/4

23/7/5 is damn near identical. + Russ played with the leading scorer in the league...

 

[illmatic34]

Westbrook has KD for defenses to focus on... Rose is the first and secondary shot creator for his team. He is the focus on defense for the opposing team, Westbrook is not.

 

[MajinZuub]

Russ ain't Rose c'mon

 

[ballinsam23]

Rose and Westbrook are more similar than different. I'd take any of them on my team.

All this Rose will never play crap is getting old too. Dude is gonna put up MVP type #s again and everyone will forget his injury.

WIzards need otto porter and brad beal to develop.

OJ Mayo takes some of the worst shots I've ever seen. So many contested fall-away jumpers.

Inability to get separation due to lack of speed and athleticism forces him to take those kind of shots. He's always had problems with beating his guy and getting separation, and thus has made him a good tough shot maker thoughout his life. But when your best option is ending up shooting contested jumpers, your in trouble good shot maker with an ability to get in the paint? Kobe, Harden, Wade, etc. Good shot maker without the ability to get in the paint? O.J., JR Smith to a lesser degree, Eric Gordon, etc.

Russell Westbrook did some things in that video that literally had me like he's an incredible athlete.

Russell goes hard.

Yeah like all Mayo's shots I think his coach is standing there watching like "No! No! No! What are you doing?!.....oh...uh good shot"

 

[noblekane]

i saw nothing special with Jason Williams

overrated to the freakin max

yup white chocolate lol pull up on the break against four defenders and clank it lol

 

[dt43]

Westbrook can basically do everything Rose can do. He's just in a more free-flowing offensive system whereas Rose plays a structured role.

Rose has a bit of advantage running the pick and roll and maybe general bball IQ, but that's about it. Defensively I'd take Russ.

Obviously both guys are significantly better than most guards in the league.
