The guy is already having to answer questions about changing his play. When the Thunder lose he gets all he blame and he's way too young to handle the media scrutiny he's receiving. He's going to succumb to the pressure like Lebron did last year and play like a dog the rest of the series. Heatles in 6!

Have to agree that Westbrook is the Key. If he plays well OKC will win. But if he struggles in Miami there might not be a game 6.Comment -
I'm counting on this

Westbrook is fearless, the exact opposite of 2011 LebronComment -
Yeah I don't see it at all. Westbrook is aggressive as hell. He's been criticized before. Besides, he doesn't have the pressure of having to carry the team. Durant is their leader.Comment -
Westbrook will not back down, but he needs to get better shot selections. He needs to play off Durant more. If he does this, they'll win the title. There is a difference between playing selfish and playing aggressive and Westbrook must figure out the difference.
Lebron on the other hand is getting his ego stroked because of his impressive play in Game 2. This is good for the Thunder I think because Lebron will ease up and be less aggressive. Like the Thunder in Game 3.Comment -
Westbrook is the key for OKC. I have the feeling he will be the reason for their loss in the Finals. Like everyone is saying his shot selection. He likes to feed off the the opponent shot for shot. Sometimes drives down the court before his team sets and launches a jump shot, that usually goes in. This wont cut it. He is a great player but sometimes he tries to out do Durant.Comment -
Basketball is a team game. You play to WIN THE GAME. Whoever does this will win the series. Westbrook needs to go back to high school.Comment -
Westbrook gets too much of the blame. You kind of have to take the good with the bad with him.
No one complanes when he is dropping 40. He is still young and learning. The dude has only been a PG for a few years. He will get better.
I also laugh when people complaing about him taking too many shots. The Thunder have a significantly better record when Westbrook takes more shots than Durant. I think it's like 25-6.
Teams double team Durant and try to deny him the ball. Sometimes Westbrook has to take the shot.Comment
