Westbrook reminds me of Oscar Robertson right now with how similar their stat lines are. I've had a few conversations with Jerry Lucas, and Jerry called Oscar a stat stuffer. He said that if Oscar wasn't more than half way to his 32, 10, and 10 that they would lose the game because Oscar would be spending the rest of the game trying to get his. Jerry told me that his goal was to never let Oscar get a rebound.
Jerry was/is a pure genius. He literally, mathematically knew where the ball was going to go.
The issue here is that that's a bad roster, particularly offensively, so for them to be 12-8...well, he's clearly doing far more good than harm.
