Westbrook goes 17/44 from the field and 2/10 from 3 and the Thunder scrape past the Suns in OT.

But hey more evidence that the Thunder make the playoffs and Russ wins MVP, right?
Russ winning MVP yes. Thunder making playoffs no, Suns and 76ers really aren't top competition
Russ doesn't win MVP if the Thunder don't make the playoffs, no chance

"... Suns and 76ers really aren't top competition" - yeh, Phoenix, "we're pretending not to tank" ...  ;)

Refs have it out for Curry. Seriously a lane-infraction and a carry-violation? Can't remember the last time I've seen either of those.

Hahaha man I was so mad the entire game, even threw my phone into the back seat. Then was elated when Roberson hit that 3 to put OKC up by 4 with 2 minutes left... Then was furious again when they couldn't seal the game or get a basket in the last 30 seconds... then was even more furious when they started OT down by 4... But then, Russ and Roberson were huge in OT to get them across the line. Unreal haha.

I know he is an elite player, and his athleticism is out of this world, but my hot-take is that I don't really enjoy watching Westbrook play basketball. Give me the smoothness of a Curry or CP3 any day.

I don't think he will get close to MVP. His advanced stats won't be much better if at all than Kawhi, LeBron, Durant, Curry, and is on a far worse team.

If the season ended right now Westbrook would be MVP 8)

3 way tie between Westbrook, Kawhi and AD with Kawhi slightly preferred for me

If Kawhi is this offensive monster that we've seen so far, I can't see him not winning the MVP.

Yea rest of season he'd be my pick with the Spurs finishing with the second best record

It's a new season, yet the refs still consistently screw Avery Bradley over  :-\
