You are a member of a very elite club; you could probably hold your annual meetings in a shower stall. (I was going to say "telephone booth," but that would show my age.)

Yes. Because Westbrook is a one-dimensional ball hog. He gets his assists because he ALWAYS has to have the ball in his hand. Bird let his teammates do some work too. That's not Westbrook's style. Stats first, winning second.

His usage rate guarantees he will never get a ring.

That's weird. How does a head play basketball with no arms, legs, or body?

I think the point that @MiamiHeat03 was trying to make is that Larry Bird has multiple heads, one of which is Russell Westbrook.

Yeah, it's not updated. Taking this in 2020 I kept guessing Gordon Hayward or Jason Tatum because Rondo is on the Lakers rn

Dončić will definitely cross him unless he gets injured but how soon I don't know.

Eh, maybe. At his current pace he'd need another 13 seasons just to get where Westbrook is now and Doncic only plays about 80% of the games. Plus, depending on how Westbrook spends the end of his career, Doncic might not gain all that much ground between now and Westbrook's retirement.

I think the determining factor will ultimately be if Doncic cares about the record. If not, and Doncic continues to get 10-12 triple-doubles a year, I don't see it happening. If he does care, he might have a couple of massive seasons (30 - 35) and then be in a good place to get it, eventually.

How is no one in this comments section talking about the fact that there was apparently an NBA player named "Fat Lever"?
