2017 NBA FINALS THREAD. PART III

[kdslittlebro]

he's going to be extra careful to not try to get that 6th foul..and you acting like Draymond is impossible to score on. Cmon man
. I don't see what's so ridiculous about wanting to get a two point shot when you are down by two...

Alright I ignored it the first time but they were up 2

 

[airuphere23]

a 3 was not needed. lebeta was at home, up 2, draymond with 5 fouls and in the key. take it to the rim like a grown man. he would of got the call. silver had the fix in for him and he still made a dumb decision. jordan, kobe, wade, ai, harden, rustle westbrook, melo, slava medvedenko are not passing that ball. they are taking it to the rim.

Agree completely.

 

[Olympus]

How much did LeBron even guard KD in 2012?

 

[king j]

And again if you want to use that.... bron against Boston quitting and bron against the mavs...in the finals.

Nope im using your broken logic against you

 

[P C H]

You out here doing God's work with the receipt pulling

Only cause ****** have pulled the receipts out on me before

Deron Williams making Harrison Barnes look like MJ last yr NBA finals

 

[Quincy McCall]

Damn

Steph's always gonna be the head of the snake

 

[captaintuxable]

Kyle Korver wasn't wide open. Curry did a great job of getting through that screen and closing out.

Mike Breen was losing his mind every time Kyrie made a shot in the 3rd. KD comes down and hits a clutch 3 with under a minute to give GS a lead and he's sounded mildly excited.

 

[DeadsetAce]

NBA product so trash

 

[nick.]

Dray had 5 fouls man...

So?

The refs notoriously swallow their whistles in that situation, and it's not a guarantee that Draymond would have fouled him.

Regardless, it's flat out ridiculous to suggest that Bron should throw up caca or a bad shot and hope for a foul instead of passing to an OPEN KYLE KORVER. Jesus christ.

That's what I'm saying

Can't put the game in the hands of the officials

Lo

Alright I ignored it the first time but they were up 2

lol.. That's even worse... I thought they was down two this whole time.....

While the better choice would have been to drive on Draymond, I also don't think passing to Korver, one of the top 5 best 3 pt shooters in the history of the game, was a bad call.

He makes that shot and we're not even having this conversation. And it's not like he was passing to Dumpert for that 3. If that were the case, you have every right to scorch Lebron into Bolivia

 

[ill steelo]

All time great Steph doing all time great things.

He's going to go down as #1 all time.

Durant. Rings + he'll probably finish comfortably ahead of Kobe & Jordan in all time points.

Very concerning for Cleveland that they are going to get swept and are capped out. Far away from a title and have absolutely zero means to close the gap anytime soon.

This is essentially what they have done to the Eastern conference, which is hilarious when you think about it.

Bron is aging and the title window has been effectively shut barring injury to GSW. Gonna be a long offseason for him. He was talking about chasing MJ

 

[everysingletime]

About KD

You put a naturally gifted scorer in the absolute best situation possible, surrounded by shooters so he can never be double teamed, with an actual bench so he can actually get some rest...of course he can get you buckets in the 4th

I will give him props for being able to guard LeBron though. That part I wasn't expecting for him to be able to do that effectively.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

You're not trying to get a two point shot as much as you're trying to get the best shot available.

Under no circumstance is LBJ shooting a contested fall away against one of the best defenders in the world with a 7ft wingspan, a greater option than passing to an OPEN Kyle Korver. Draymond was sitting down and guarding LBJ give him credit. Give credit to LBJ for finding an Open Kyle Korver. That's what he was in the game for. He just missed. It happens.

Hell nah man. You're better than this.

I can see that pov.

A fair amount and he got roasted then as well when he actually was a good defender.

but..but....but lebron has to do it all (except play on and off ball defense) for the cavs!

mike breen is an nba player thot like drake

You're the one who said you can't say that about kd because okc blew 3-1 lead and that's where it started.

Who doesn't get roasted when guarding KD?

CP0? Tony Allen?

 

[D StaXX]

KD is unguardable

 

[Lovetohate3000]

The thing about Durant is he makes it looks so easy. Sometimes he looks likes hes not even trying. Like yesterday I couldn't even tell he had 30 points.. I hear he had 30 at the end of the game and I'm like Damn, it didn't even seem like that.

 

[captaintuxable]

It's still asking a lot for a guy who has never been in the Finals or in a moment like that. All time great shooter or not and a 3 wasn't needed. And he shot that next to GSW bench. That's a hard shot to make. It wasn't a bad play on Lebron's part but he should've kept the ball there.

I feel like when discussing Lebron and "the right basketball play" his followers are just fine with him not taking those shots.
