I disagreed on that he has to get rid of the ball all of the time though. He's a big part of our scoring and if he doesn't shoot the ball, most of the time we won't win. But having a triple double is good too. That's better than scoring 20+ to me.
Maybe I'm not remembering the argument, but I said that OKC would lose the series if Westbrook continued to take more shots than Durant.
Part of that is Durant's fault. He has to want the ball more. He doesn't demand it enough and doesn't fight for it enough. Not enough killer instinct yet in my opinion.
Either way, Westbrook has to realize he's Pippen/Worthy and not Jordan/Magic. As I said, part of that is Durant realizing he's Jordan/Magic, and he needs to start acting like it every game. Having only 11 points in Game 6 brought it out in him for Game 7, but that should happen every game. He's still young and has time to develop that. If he does, he'll be better than Lebron or Kobe.
Still stand by the fact that Westbrook needs to look to score second. He is a good scorer, but with Durant on the floor he's got to look for Durant first and then himself. He did that, and OKC's offense was nearly unstoppable. It's very stoppable when Durant isn't fighting to get the ball and Westbrook is playing 1 on 5.
