I’m not buying the Milwaukee hype. Giannis is the goods but as a Hawks fan, I know first hand the blockhead moves Budenholzer can and will make in the ECF

Hype?

They were #1 in offensive rating and #2 in defensive rating in the regular season and had the best record in the league. They have the MVP who has been on a tear thus far in the playoffs and is virtually unstoppable. He's surrounded by a bunch of guys that are knockdown 3pt shooters. This isn't the Hawks.

EASY.

I will be bringing this up a week from now.
 
Here is the thing. Simmons has a jumper, he just refuses to shoot it. 3 years in, i doubt he is changing his entire mental make up. He plays the exact same way he played in college.

Id have more faith in someone who cant shoot but will shoot changing versus someone who can shoot but wont changing
You trying to be funny Jim?
 
Steph Curry may be the best team player in the league. You can see him going to any team, then fitting in without creating any fuss. I like that about him. Kawhi gives me that vibe as well.

I feel Kevin Durant would/should be #1 on that list, easily.

But yes, I feel like Steph/Kawhi would also be seemless fits no matter where they go.
 


you dont notice it real time but it was that bad. he took steps on the catch and then more before dribbling. If he immediately dribbled on the turn i'd be cool

Hawks had the best record in the league that season. This is pt 2.

Giannis>Jeff teague

Man Portland is getting swept. Y’all trippin.

Clippers won 2 games. Rockets won 2 games. Portland will win 2. Warriors aren't sweeping anybody.

Harden ain't a bum, he damn sure is a perennial playoff choker though. That can't be disputed anymore.

It was never disputable but they still tried :lol. They'll continue to bring up his TS% like it means anything
 
Lol @ blaming MDA. He's definitely trash but there was a point midway thru the season when he said he doesn't even coach harden and just let's him do whatever he wants

I hear you about KD, but he seems to get into it with the refs in a way that I do not like from time to time. I kinda' like players who do their thing, refs be damned.

Yea but none of that influences his production though. Sure he could complain less but there is no way to honesty say Steph is more of a univerdal fit than KD man.
 
I've always kind of wondered this, but is there a particular reason why the anti-Harden folks in here are almost all MLGA members? It's not like there has been any kind of Lakers/Rockets rivalry or anything like that. Just seemed random. Pardon my ignorance if I'm missing something though.

Yo pardon my ignorance but i keep meaning to ask, MLGA = Make Lakers Great Again?
 
Coach is always the easiest scapegoat. MDA is a choker of a coach though just as Harden and CP0 are.
What has MDA done to be considered a choker?

Other than be the head coach of teams that haven't gotten IT done?
