Finns shat their pants. They played much better against Ukraine and actually beat them, but just seeing the US stars made them nervous and suicidal
Yep. When it comes down to it, Spurs are the better team. More well rounded, better coached, and play together better. A lot of the times OKC beat them last season the Spurs would be without one of Leonard, Parker, Duncan, or Ginobli. OKC are a young explosive team but their style of play is totally one dimensional and only works if one of Westbrook or Durant is having a great night. Defensively, if Ibaka is out of the paint they have no way of stopping you and Popovich finally figured that out in the playoffs.
I'll just place this here. <iframe class="vine-embed" src="https://vine.co/v/OBHezeZFUTE/embed/simple" width="600" height="600" frameborder="0"></iframe><script async src="//platform.vine.co/static/scripts/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The Film DON'T Lie, Neil... Harden's Defense is Straight Up SHAMEFUL @ Times...Sorry, but that's NOT "Winning" Basketball... REED:mj:
There's a SURFACE Similarity, for Sure...TRUE Bigs that are VERSATILE Enough to Effectively Defend Paint OR Perimeter Positions, as Needed... Having Said That, Davis is ALREADY Bigger than KG Ever Was (In Terms of BULK) & Probably ALREADY As Athletic...Offensively, there's NO Comparison, @ a Similar Age...Even in his Prime, KG was UNSELFISH to a Fault...Davis will SCORE More Points Per Game than Kevin Garnett EVER Did... To Top it Off, Davis will Finish his Career w/a HIGHER Blocks Per Game Average Too... Barring Injury, Anthony Davis Could Be the EVOLUTION of Kevin Garnett... REED:hammert:
Steph Curry's Kicking Mexico's Ass this Morning... 20pts on 7-10 Shooting, 6-9 on 3's...4 Dimes, 2 Boards, 2 Steals, in 3 Quarters... Team USA Up by 28pts... REED:mj:
Again, why is Derrick Rose playing over Damian Lillard? The dude is terrible. Athleticism can only take you so far in this game.
