Westbrook needs more shooters like lebron. OKC needs to spread the floor for westbook. Thats when we will see the best of Godbrook

[ajajala]

I thought Max said Westbrook was more important

[SubImVizual]

Imagine glancing over a 20/20/20 performance. Under appreciated

[pimpzgangstazhustlaz]

Paul George is more important than WB because he actually puts the ball in the basket and not brick up shots like WB

[teezy]

Never forget playoff P got outplayed in the playoffs last year by Mighty Joe Ingles

[lrdmcd]

ESPN trying to kill their team!
They always doing Brodie dirty... Both are Important, but Westbrook is more Important because PG tend to need Someone to make em aggressive at times

[Gunnerslife]

OKC might win the Championship this year never know

[SSJRome]

It’s Westbrook .. wth is max talking about

[nicolasnunoo]

Nah Max is bugging. Westbrook has to do it all on the offensive end efficiently in order to for the team to click... Paul George is the best player but Westbrook's efficiency will be the deciding factor of how far they'll go.

[bruhBruh-izxw]

Without Westbrook giving a sales pitch to Paul George all season long, PG would be sitting beach side wearing sun glasses at sunny LA. Conclusion no Westbrook = no PG
Westbrook is more important than PG

[matthewtrung]

Westbrook has historic game and ESPN chooses this topic cuz its causes more drama lol
