Irving's definitely NOT a "role player." He's an all star level player. Just not a SUPERSTAR level player.
Irving hasn't played great but he's played as well as curry this series. He is also guarding curry more often than not while GS got one of the better defenders in the league in thompson guarding him
Nah not really. Hes a one dimensional scorer. Hes not even remotely close to an allstar this season. Last season hes in the conversation.
Yes. Kyrie closer to the form he was in last year fits this when he shot 41 and a half percent from 3 the whole season.
Im pretty sure GS is done. Green getting suspended was going to require amazing games from Curry and other guys stepping up, but Bogut also getting injured just leaves GS with zero rim protection. This is nearly unwinnable at this point I think
Curry's shot selection is unreal. He's turned down multiple opportunities to shoot at the rim with angles for reverse layup and high arcing layups he usually makes. Theres no reason you are at home and 80 + percent of your shot attempts are 3s.
Cleveland could have probly rested their starters for the entire 4th quarter if they had Jae crowder instead of irving
What a curious defensive scheme... Part of me wants to say the lack of adjustments on Kerr's part is foolish, he other part says hes right for playing the numbers. Realistically the scheme was probably foolish and giving up this many points is a reflection of that. Beyond that, the Warriors are probably extremely limited what they can do defensively tonight.
You're probably going into the corner with REED for casual baskeball fans whos opinion can be safely ignored.
Realistically LeBrons absolutely historic night tonight will be difficult to match in the next 2 games but if anyone can do it, I wouldnt put it past LeBron. I think most of this can be attributed to Green's absence however and the Warriors being in love with small ball to a detriment.
The 90's Bulls had opportunities to win closeout game 5's at home in 1993 and 1998 and they didn't do it
Nope, REED's Hoop Opinions are Dictated by HIS OWN Eyes...if, If, IF REED's Comments are On Par w/"Inside the NBA", that's PURELY Coincidental...And UNLIKE YOU, REED Doesn't Pathetically Cling to Analytics Either...For the 43rd Time, the EYEBALL Test is THE Best Way to Gauge Basketball Talent, NOT Analytics... The List You Posted was THE Funniest Shit REED's Read All Month, Literally...You ACTUALLY Said Kyrie Irving ISNT a Top 100 Player...Nonetheless, Motherfucker Has Now Had 3 CONSECUTIVE 30pt Games Against the League MVP AND his 73 Win Squad... Again, YOU Said Kyrie Irving was NOT Even Top 100, THEN You Compounded that Idiocy by Listing Players that will NEVER Be Regarded as Highly...REED Hopes You Enjoyed Game 5 Tonight, Because it FULLY Illustrated Just How Much Basketball You DON'T Watch, Dumbfuck... REED:mut:
agREED... That Motherfucker's ONLY "Contribution" is FLOPPING...BIGGEST Motherfucker Out There, FLOPPING when a Guy Delladova's Size is Near Him...The Game is MUCH Better Off w/OUT that Bullshit... REED:hammert:
REED Highlighted a LOT More Players than That...The MORE You Post, the MORE OBVIOUS it Is that Analytics is Your CRUTCH... @ This Point, REED Doubts You Even LIKE Basketball, You're Just Spouting Analytic BULLSHIT, Because You THINK it Makes You Look Cool... In Short, You're a Fucking JOKE...Resume Your Position... REED:mut:
Not Only Has REED Literally WATCHED Every Single NBA Finals Since Magic Johnson's Rookie Season, but REED has Played the Game and COACHED it for the Last 12 Years... You're a STAT Reliant Dipshit, Whereas REED Lives and BREATHES the Game of Basketball... Kyrie Irving SHITTED on YOU Tonight, More than he Did Steph or Golden State..... REED:hammert:
allegedly the lakers are interested in giving barnes 20 mill per. i am told he turned down 4 years 60 from Golden State he really laid a fucking egg tonight.
phonetap must say he is very pleased he was wrong. the best player in the world, Stephen Curry (better than Isiah and Magic) was 3rd best on the the court tonight and maybe for the entire series so far. He must be injured...
tonight he was no better than the fourth best player on the court. thompson kept them in the game in the first half
