2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

Lebron was never this coldblooded.. haven't seen anything like this since Kobe, and Jordan before then

Come on man, game 6 in Boston in 2012 is as real as anything Durant has ever done.

Dude's be getting caught in the moment.

That was one of the few times we've ever seen Lebron play like that. Before that game a lot of people didn't even think he had it in him, that's why it was talked about so much. He has that game, and the playoff game vs Detroit where he was just throwing up junk and it was going in

Lebron is a great player but he's not coldblooded like Durant

He passed to Westbrook with 2 seconds left. Love how Brooks still hasn't made any lineup changes so we end up with Westbrook guarding Dirk for the game winning shot because it's still 3 pgs, Serge, and KD again a front court that features Marion, Wright, and Nowitzki

If it's not a game winning or game tying shot... it's not cold blooded apparently

 

[nelson999]

Id rather have KD take the shot backwards and blindfolded over the double team than make that pass to Westbrook

Only he did it the round before against the Pacers too and that was in the playoffs in do or die games, there's no argument there.

How the hell do you consider them not foreign? Lol. I can understand maybe Duncan or Nash, but Dirk and Hakeem?

I don't consider players who played in American basketball systems before the NBA to be "foreign" players. Nash, Duncan and Hakeem all had long college careers here. They never played pro basketball overseas. I also don't consider players who played for Team USA to be foreign either. Dirk came out of Europe and directly into the NBA. Same for Parker. Ginobili also played in Europe.

My all-time truly foreign team:

C- Sabonis/Yao
PF - Dirk
SF - Peja, maybe?
SG - Ginobili/Petrovic
PG - Parker

Using this logic, barely anybody would be considered a foreign player.

what makes it junk? because you dislike lebron and it would put a fork in your theory? lol yall dudes just look like fools when you post this type of foolishness. game 6 in the ECF dropping 30 in the first half on the brinks of being eliminated.? but your right man durants regular season shots are so much "cold blooded"

I swear dudes gon go to that same game every time the subject gets tossed around. That game is so talked about for a reason, that was the first time he was jus straight disgusting and clutch and didn't rely on the refs. KD takes these big shots for fun and doesn't even think twice about em, it's scary how this guy jus effortlessly pulls up and knocks em down everytime when his team needs him.

 

[awwsome]

@ truly foreign

NCAA ball is about as far from the NBA as Euroleague is, playing 3 or 4 years in college doesn't make you an American player.

I see where you're coming from, but I don't agree. To each their own though.

Those were great performances but personally I don't hold it in the same regard. I never really get the Jordan feeling from Lebron. That Game 6 vs Boston is the only time I've gotten that feeling of him just being in another zone. It's all personal opinion though

Calderon always been underated man

 

[awwsome]

So show me a Durant moment that even compares to Bron against Boston/Pacers/Pistons or his game winning 3 in the ECF against Orlando.

I don't see how you can even have that opinion when Durant hasn't done things like that with those stakes.

 

[$tacy]

Speaking of cold blooded this guy dirk man

 

[finallyfamous]

Bron game 6 Pistons ECF is the GOAT performance I've ever seen :x

I will never forget that. I had like 20 buddies over for it. it was magical.

I wish I saw that thread.

 

[imlive365]

i swear some of dirks shots look like they dont even go threw the net there so wet.

 

[carltonjunior]

Why did KD try to draw a foul on calderon tho. Take it to the hole

 

[offwhitewhite]

That vintage Dirk fade away...
