But...
1) A bunch of his rebounds come when he's hovering close to the basket or switching onto a small forward, so he's much closer than he probably should be. I wonder what it's like when the opposition PG is an outside threat.
2) The Thunder keep blowing leads and I'm not sure it's just because the bench are inconsistent. RW was clearly looking for his numbers rather than taking charge of the game. He's now got his 10 assists so will probably score a bunch, like he seems to do, but instead of passing it around just because, he needs to find a better balance.

It's subtle, but I think his play hurts the team sometimes. Triple doubles are nice, but wins are better, and it should only take a slight adjustment in attitude to fix that.
An 18 point win and still finding a way to complain about how bad RWB is hurting the team. Hmmmm.

Maybe without him they coulda won by 28, right?
