I fukkin hate this word so much in basketball right now.

Effeciency will have nikkas arguing that Kyle Korver is better than Sabo becuz he shooting 50% from 3.

Y'all can have that shyt bruh.
This isn't using it right. We're obviously talking efficiency relative to players on his level

While Westbrook did shoot too damn much, people missed all the shots he set up for others that were missed too. Just in the second half of the 4th quarter and OT I saw at least five different plays that he set up teammates for wide open shots that were misses. That's why I hate assists as a stat sometimes cause it's so dependent on teammates actually knocking down shots.

This line of thinking is only applicable if Russ was making his shots. If everybody is missing then there is no reason for one guy to shoot that many shots. I would be one thing if he was super hot or some shyt. You can't have one guy shoot damn near 40 times, missing more than a two thirds of them, and then expect other guys, who obviously haven't been allowed to establish a rhythm, to magically get into rhythm now that you have finally decided to pass them the ball in crunch time.

I agree Russ shot too much. But all those other players on the Thunder were getting their normal amount of shots. If Durant and Westbrook was both playing they average close to 40 shots per game, the amount Westbrook took. So that ain't no excuse for those players to miss their shots considering that's their normal amount of touches they'll see any other time.
