Kyrie Hater
Sure. So are those5 games the sum total of Westbrook's career?
Westbrook also had 11 assists a game in that series.
I'm not going to defend Westbrook or the Thunder in that series. I just don't think it is reasonable to use a single series to define a career. It was ridiculous when various Cavs fans were claiming that Kyrie was the best PG after the 2016 finals. It's just as ridiculous to criticize Westbrook for his performance.
Not what I am trying to do at all.
Many seem to be defining Westbrook by his stats last season. The playoffs were like a charicature of his entire season. I have been saying all year that the assists don't mean as much for a player who has the ball as much as he does. That playoff usage rate perfectly illustrates that.
