In Turkey they looked somewhere the same in my account. I didn't follow their stats though. Both gave great energy and played well, but they had Durrant who did it all. I enjoy watching these players as Europe is lacking athletic guards.

NBA.com has a new StatsCube system on its site. StatCube has some interesting features like colored charts and graphs. One of them is player vs player statistical analysis. StatCube is fun to play with if your a numbers guy like me or even if you just curious about certain players. Below is a link to the the Rose vs Westbrook comparison I did. The numbers are virtually even for the seson and for head to head matches. Go make your own comaprisons. I'd like to conapre Kevin Garnett vs Pau Gasol. Wade vs Kobe and on and on.

I agree. So has Westbrook. Have you been watching the Bulls vs Pacers series? The pacers ball movement and team play is amazing. There talent level is also great. Now everyone know why PSYCHO T (Tyler Hansbrough) is one of my favorite players. i always knew he could play in the NBA.
I'm having to much fun with these comparisons :-)

Point taken. His last name has been changed to the "guy who plays with Kevin Durant" Russell "TGWPWKD" for short. 
His stats speak for themselves though. Kevin Durant is making "most" every player on the planet look normal.
Dirk vs KD

People have there preferences but they are very much even at this point. I give a slight dynamic edge to Rose. KD made everyone on Team USA look like role players. I havent seen a WC performance like his in a while. Maybe Bodiroga in '02, Šarūnas Jasikevičius in '04 against USA (he could nit miss), Scola..
Make your own camparison:

That is a great question. I feel that Westbrook doesn't get as much love as he should because Durant over shadows him. But in my opinion Westbrook makes Durant way better than he would be with an average PG. Still, in the end I gotta take Rose. No need to explain ya'll have seen the proof the last 84 games

Rose sure enjoys the huge buzz around him, he is an amazing player but him being considered as sure MVP is pretty much bullshit.. IMO Westbrook is even better then him but as some here said he suffers the fact he's in Durant's shadow (he doesn't really suffer obviously cuz he is a team player and I guess he enjoys the team success even though he could be a franchise player in most of the other teams in the league)

After watching the playoffs both Rose and Westbrook were shown to be too young, too inexperienced. They both let their teams down. I think Rose is a little more polished than Westbrook is scoring and maybe a bit more mature overall. At this time i don't see a huge gap in their abilities.
