    NBA is top dog at the moment.
    i'd say this is quite accurate
    just to add from a spectator point of view

    baseball....to many games with zero importance....3rd best product

    football nfl...above is spot on...best game in the business though

    hockey...massive problems...too defensive minded..no scoring...pinball style of play...worst game

    basketball nba...lack of parity is a problem...2nd best game in the business of spectator sports

    No ball movement with Westbrook

    Isolation

    All he is trying to do is pad stats

    No matter what the NHL does to help with scoring, defenses always find a way to catch up.

    MLB is an afterthought. No one watches baseball until the playoffs. MLB is last.

    NFL
    NBA
    NHL
    Soccer
    MLB

    Please tell me the players not named westbrook on that team you trust to hit an open shot?? When Kobe scored 81 in a game was he not being a good player? or when a young Jordan had to score 50 and 60 before he got Pippen and Phil Jackson? OKC is a roster full of players that will never make an all star team or even come close for that matter. Great players do everything in their ability to help their teams win.

    sure wasnt any ball movement when KD was there.

    donovan going back to florida runs a spread pick and roll offense.

    the thunder at times have 2-3 players on the floor who cant shoot or bring offense(adams/grant/robertson/sabonis). they pretty much run pick and roll 90% of the time and thats so westbrook can get in the lane to pick apart the defense.

    the only way that roster can be successful is russ getting his in transition and getting to the middle of the floor. the trade for mcdermott helped cause they got a stretch 4 or shooter at the 3 they desperately needed. anyways this team doesnt have enough shooting for you clowns ot suggest ball movement wuld help. all teams would do is pack the paint and force the bums to shoot.
