    Exactly; when you can use simple tricks and nonsense to get into a guy's head, he's mentally weak. Westbrook has a huge inferiority complex, and takes over games to show everyone how awesome he is.

    Oh come now. I was calling Westbrook a ballhog three years ago, but even I don't think he can be easily replaced by a Patrick Beverley.

    Every Pacer game I've been to this season, Lance has balled out.

    I paid $3.99 for tix tonight.

    Beverley is a better fit with Harden and probably also Durant than a ballhog like Westbrook. Beverley's defensive-minded, physical, and can get out of the way when Harden and Durant take over.

    Beverley is playing with 2 Team USA players, and his team is 26-14. Beverley is an average NBA PG, and his assists/36 of 2.6 is horrific for an NBA PG. Throw in his 107 Drtg (compared to 100 for Westbrook), and I have to chuckle.

    Re: OFFICIAL 2014 Around the NBA thread

    So am I for OKC or Houston?

    I'm of the mindset of hoping for HCA in the first round (not best record in the West). I love being above OKC, but Westbrook will be back before we know it and with the Blazers schedule . . . I think I want to see Houston get cemented into 5-8 spot.

    Because OKC will be getting back Westbrook, I need to go for Houston tonight, and then have them start losing.

    Houston is 4-1 in their last 5 games w/out Beverley. Maybe he needs to come back soon and put Brooks back out of the rotation?

    Aaron Brooks is on fire. Perhaps Patrick Beverley will be available via trade?

    OKC is very average w/out Westbrook. The Blazers need to win at OKC this next trip. 73 points given up in the first half? Wow!

    People talking about us on a skid as of late. OKC has looked like shit the last 8 games or so.

    I know you're taunting me for liking Beverley but he shuts Lillard down. I'd love his defense on our team.

    I don't fault them for it. When you're really not that talented you gotta find advantages wherever you can.
