Nash is a comp for Marino but not RW. Nash was elite. A 1%. RW is not.
Same on Barry Sanders. Didn’t win a ring but he was an elite “make a guy miss“ runner. A highlight reel. Is RW that guy?? Or “just” a unique stat stuffer??
I don’t find his game all that exciting. Too many misses. Pedestrian passes. Does a lot of layups vs dunks. Just no wow factor.
westbrook is empty calories. But has a great PR team.
He‘s the equivalent of a high volume NFL passer but who also throws a ton of INTs. 400 yards of passing but he loses by 30.
A 20 game winner in MLB with a 4.50 era.
A 40 home run guy who strikes out 160 times a year.
Triple Double sounds great. So does 20
wins and 400 yards passing.
But it’s not the whole story.
Point of the Game is to win.
Poor shooter. Historically low from 3 point area. Shoots 22-23 shots a game. That’s HIGH volume. From the PG position. That amplifies issue #1 Above.
High TOer guy.
Not an elite passer. Few are but he is a PG.
Everyone wants to talk Triple D’s. It’s an incomplete analysis.
I do respect his effort and tenacity. He doesn’t take a minute off. Thats impressive. He‘s also an Elite athlete and a great finisher.
I just saved you hours of film study.
You‘re welcome.
