I respect Westbrook for being tremendously talented and he may be one of the few NBA players who goes 100% every second he's on the floor.

That said, dude is tremendously overrated. For every good thing he does, he does something stupid. We saw a perfect example in the Mavs-Thunder game. He ran a hard break and tried to dunk. He got blocked by the rim and then got upset and came back to the other side and took a stupid foul. Caused a 4-pt turnaround, because he couldn't control his motor/passion. His IQ isn't that high and he plays only with his heart.
