They were spot on with Adams--he is going to be one of those guy u want on your team but hate if hes on the other. Its a weird team that has two great players 1 really good player role players and a fair amount of youth.

As I said, west brook has his flaws, a lot as a PG actually, but where he lacks in natural instincts as a PG he makes up for with desire and tenacity. The guy plays the game with such energy and force. he doesn't cheat the fans or his teamates... the guy is a ball of energy. how can you not respect the way he goes about playing the game?

Exactly Westbrook plays with a motor for both ends! Very few players have that motor. When they do they are great and their teams win

i respect it but i agree with barkley and kenny that he can still get to another level in terms of creating for teammates and making them better. i guess i get frustrated watching him because you want a guy like that to develop more skills as he ages before his athleticism diminishes.

so how many are legit fouls?

This reminds me a lot of a young Mozgov on the knicks. Very goofy and everything looks like a foul because they are so awkward.

It reminds me of the Knicks playing the Bulls with Jordan, Pippen getting every touch foul.

I like Westbrook- I know he can be a chucker and gets a lot of criticism, but I like his passion and watching him play. I remember we were interested in drafting him, but OKC picked him earlier than he was projected to go.
