    Game was over and Westbrook subs in to complete his triple-dbl on missing rebounds. If that's not blatant stat-padding, I don't know what is. I also noticed on multiple rebounds, his bigs box out for him so he can pick up the ball.

    well, seeing as how OKC pulled to within eight points with 1:32 remaining in the 4th quarter, I'm not sure your "Game was over and Westbrook subs in to complete his triple-dbl " claim holds up. Otherwise agree with you that Westbrook sux :D

    Harden is super durable.

    Okc forward is weak. If it changes to other team, we may near ryno for defence

    Houston defense visibly loosened up in 4Q due to our players thinking the game is over. That helped Westbrook to rake in a lot of points. It was as if we treated the whole 4Q like a garbage time.

    With 6 or 7 mins left while Westbrook was sitting on the bench he had 8 rebounds. About a minute after he entered it was announced he had a triple double. Can anyone confirm that he actually grabbed those two rebounds when it was announced? I didn't see it.

    Yeah, I noticed that. I was at the game and pointed out to my buddy that Westbrook needed 2 more rebounds for a triple double. Then after he reentered the game, my buddy pointed out to me in what seemed like only a few seconds that he'd gotten a triple double.

    I was confused as hell. When they said he was 2 away from a triple double, especially after seeing the video of the guy saying he leaves his man open, I was looking. All of a sudden he had a triple double. He definitely didn't grab any defensive rebounds during that stretch. He definitely didn't grab a rebound and dunked it on the other end as ESPN reported. How did this go so unnoticed?

    Surely was nice to see the three-balls going in for Ariza.
