The Westbeast is one of the most ferocious players in the open floor. He couldn't care less about his efficiency and just winning/scoring is on his mind whenever he is in the open court.

Last year, without any other superstars, he was scoring in volume in transition but his efficiency was average as team's defenses corralled at him. Now with a better team, his transition stats have become better and his efficiency have also increased.

If Russell Westbrook just can become a little better with his decision making, he will climb our list at least 2 to 3 spots. His turnover % is also high and along with his not that elite efficiency, it is hard to put Westbrook in top 5.
