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

[hymen man]

KD still my dude

Def. can't let CP take you out of the damn game though G.

 

[antidope]

IDK how you can blame KD, this falls on Scott Brooks and team defense

 

[sea manup]

 

 

 

if the best player played like the best player okc would have won

This is the Playoffs fam, coaching decisions are crucial to winning games and series. You make it sound like its 1v5 out there. Best player got 40 tonight and still lost.

3 turnovers, struggling to get the ball in the final 5 minutes of the 4th

kd doesnt wet the bed and okc easily wins

he played like trash and his team lost. pretty much how being the best player works

12-24
40pts
15-18 FT

and he played like trash? You delirious keyboard typing ************

did you watch the 4th quarter?

if thats not trash than you need to raise your expectations

okc would have been better off putting kd's mom on the court

 

[JD617]

CP3: 45 minutes, 23 & 10, 4 steals, 1 turnover, did a good job guarding KD down the stretch.

KD deserves some blame man. I counted three consecutive possessions where he ran to the corner with his head down and didn't try to call for the ball or post Paul up

This.

But those 8 turnovers don't help...

Uh the Lakers and Bulls would have run plays to exploit the mismatch. KD is never going to be able to put the ball on the floor with someone like Chris Paul getting underneath him. Scott Brooks is a **** coach.

You don't need plays run. Shoot over him or take him in the post. They double you pass. Some times you gotta say forget the coach, give me the damn ball and get out my way.

nah dude, you need to blame something else. kd needs to be spoon fed while having a coach tell him what to do at all times

 

[doitallpaul]

Better off having Mike Brown coach the Thunder.

 

[nomadicsole21]

KD and Brooks should have made the Clipper pay for that matchup plain and simple. Brooks had his team literally bring the ball up and stand still

Yeah I agree, they should of abused the hell out of it but when the help came the ball was in Westbrooks hand. This is where I think Doc won the game. A little of KDs fault for being passive as hell too.

18 FT is way to much for a jump shooter.

Clippers lack discipline, especially on Durant who is top 5 in the game behind the charity stripe.

 

[wavycrocket]

Y'all really acting like cp3 ain't a good defender though

 

[doitallpaul]

LOL, someone on the Thunder message boards said he rather have Ibaka shooting in the 4th than KD and Russ

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

Overreactions and hyperbole abound in this thread right now.

I feel you, but...

 

Y'all ready to see the Clippers win?

Ain't happening, it's Mother's Day and we all know about KD relationship with his mom.


I expect a 40 point performance from him.

 

If Clippers get this under 10 at half, they'll win.

Nah.

Russ out here being great.


Clippers are done.

At least you were right about the 40 pt performance.

In all honesty I'm pretty sure OKC will blow the lead. It's what they do

Great call. That was early in the game too.

 

[do work son]

the thunder offensive struggle down the stretch is a product of scott brooks doing nothing. they made zero adjustments. no floor spacing

You don't need plays run? You think this is NBA 2k14 I see

. He did pass out of the double what game were you watching. Scott Brooks let 5 minutes pass without adjusting to what was going on guy. You think someone like Phil allows that to happen? KD deserves blame but IDK how you just ignore dudes trash coaching.

 

[antidope]

Yup. Mike Brown> New Age White Mike Brown minus the defense.

He'd have to catch and shoot. He doesn't trust his dribble around Chris. Posting? Ehh. I don't know if Durant is strong enough to prevent Chris from moving him off of the block. If he and Chris are fighting for a spot on the floor, my money is on Chris. Durant needs to hit that weight room and call Hakeem.

Now your reaching for lulz, just stop

 

[bhzmafia14]

Every time OKC lose, its the same problem. Its not rocket science

 

[doitallpaul]

Awwsome prob had 5 different browsers open with 5 different posts talking about how great Russ is if that shot went in.

by passing out of a double im sure he meant pass to your own teammate, not pass to the other team for an open layup

 

[dacomeup]

KD has reached the Bron level of stupid criticism. Welcome.

 

[sohoguy]

mj or kobe would run train on chris paul

kd is just soft

Obvious lakers fan obvious
