Russell Westbrook's had a nice week for the Thunder, who have gone 2-2 over the past 7 days. Russy's been filling up the stat sheet all week, averaging about 15 points, 8 boards, and 5 dimes. It's gonna be nice to see Westbrook develop over the next few years, as he may be the best all-around guard of the '08-'09 class. Those are pretty consistent with his numbers on the season, but the 8 boards is close to double his usual, 4.7.
Derrick Rose has had an outstanding week, too. Though the Bulls are just 1-2 this past week, D. Rose has been doing his thing, averaging 21 points, 6 dimes, 3 boards. The dimes and boards are what's been going on all season, but the 21 points is 5 up from his season average of 17.
Eric Gordon and the Clippers have been having a terrible season, but are 3-1 dating back to last Friday, and Gordon's been going off. In that time, he's been good for just over 20 points a night, 6 up from his season average, including 30 against NY. Even better, it's been done on 56% shooting.
Big ups to these rooks. It should be a great Rookie/Sophomore Challenge.
