If it weren't for NBA, basketball wouldn't be 10% as popular and BB wouldn't happen.

Bargnani is a threat to other teams when he shoots it not when he's "expanding his game". But a box out every now and again would be nice.

You can't create Russel Westbrook in BB either, cause you don't get anything for height but a slow guard training.

Thank you for your replies! I might be trying something different in BB.

in fact on a high lvl. it's much easier for a c with respectable passing to get a tripple double than for a pg with respectable rebounding. in 1st devisions germany, spain, usa, italy etc my rondo would look like this:

Jump Shot: sensational Jump Range: strong
Outside Def.: stupendous Handling: phenomenal
Driving: phenomenal Passing: stupendous
Inside Shot: tremendous Inside Def.: sensational
Rebounding: tremendous Shot Blocking: mediocre

i guess he is doing a great job in defending driving guards. but maybe you are right, sensational may be a little to high. but inept... no way

Assists are a team stat, we're 10 games into the season, the Thunder offense doesn't lend itself to as many assisted shots as their non-PGs are more creative with the ball, etc.

Westbrook is better than Rondo, which people will realize when he dominates the playoffs with Durant this season. Not to go too far off-topic or anything. :p

The only thing Westbrook is better than Rondo at is drawing fouls and general athleticism (which makes him a little bit better defensively).
You have to realize Westbrook is not a natural ball handler, is turnover prone although he's improving. Rondo is by far the better ball handler, passer, finisher and playmaker. Hands down. They both have horrible range. Rondo has far better court vision and is more crafty around the basket, Westbrook has to use his strength to power through the defense and hope to draw a foul.

i can agree with everything you say except for the part where you claim that westbrook is the better defender. rondo is a pest and finished fifth at the defensive player of the year votings last year.

Rondo takes plays off on defense and can be a liability against great driving PGs. He gets steals so lazy media types fall in love with him, but good PGs eat him alive. Westbrook is also far more athletic. Aside from that, he's a way better scorer - it's not even close. Rondo has superior court vision but his decision making can be subpar far too often.
