::::NBA:::: 2016-2017-2018 Season

I'm not sure there are many players in the league outside of the few obvious superstars you can plug into the Warriors who would instantly be 1 or 2 on the team in Assists, Steals, Rebounds and Blocks, and play the defense that he does.

Draymonds shooting has really regressed this year, so I'm not sure what to make of that, other then that's not really high on his priority list with the team anymore.

 

No Doubt, Draymond's a VITAL Piece to the Warriors...Irreplaceable...

In Terms of PHYSICALITY He's Their Only True ALPHA...David West Used to Be One In New Orleans and Indy, but he Doesn't Get Enough PT to Be THAT Guy w/the Dubs...

agREED on Draymond NOT Getting as Much Shine on Any Other Team, but w/Out Him, Teams Would Hard Foul and Cheap Shot Golden State Routinely...Draymond's that X-Factor, Loose Cannon Type, that Keeps Opposing Teams Honest...

Maurice Lucas, Ron Artest, Charles Oakley, Xavier McDaniel, Dennis Rodman...Draymond's Cut from That Same ENFORCER Cloth...

GS Needs Draymond Just as Much as he Needs Them...Perfect Marriage...







REED

 

disagREED...

If Golden State Ends Up LOSING the Series, Game 5 Will Be THE Moment Everyone References, as the SHIFT...





REED

 

reed youre delusional

 

Like REED Said, it's a Perfect Marriage...

Draymond's an UNDERSIZED "Big" on a Team That Clearly Doesn't Place Much Value on the 4 and 5 Spot...Draymond's NATURALLY Versatile, Which Blends WELL with the Warriors...On a Team that Shoots THAT Well, Assists Will Come ROUTINELY...

Draymond's a TWEENER, but GS Affords a Situation Where his Tweening WORKS...Dude Should Be a 3, but he's Not Quick/Athletic Enough to Survive @ that Position...With the Dubs, he's Matched Up w/4's and 5's, who He Almost Always Has a Skill, Quickness Edge On...

REED Agrees w/X on Draymond NOT Being Nearly as Effective on Another Squad...






REED

 

The media argument that was made that Green is better than Charles Barkley was the tipping point of his overrating.

 

who ever said that?

silent night?

 

Skip Bayless said it.

Granted, Bayless is the biggest troll on Earth and NOBODY knows how he has a job, but the fact that even opened up a conversation by making this statement is absurd.

 

Skip Bayless? Enough said, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL...............

Idiots get ratings..........and also get elected President, so it's no surprise he has a job.

Snooki and all those Jersey Shore idiots are rich assholes to...............and it's not because they're titans of industry.

 

Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith are living proof that quality is dead in sports media.

Both those dipshits have seven figure salaries.

 

Could, but it WOULDN'T Be...






REED

 

Draymond is a Better DEFENDER, but that's Literally the ONLY Edge he Has on Barkley...





REED

 

Stephen A. has a QUALITY Product...He's NOT Everybody's Cup of Tea, but he's QUALITY When it Comes to Hoop, in Particular, and Mainstream Sports...

More than Anything Stephen A.'s an INSIDER, Particularly w/Black Athletes (& their Cliques), and is Privy to Information and Exclusives Others Aren't...

There's TANGIBLE Value to Stephen A., That Escapes Skip Bayless...







REED

 

Stephen A believes he's far more important than he truly is.

And I dunno what in the world possessed this nigro to think he's a black community leader or something.

I shouldn't have lumped him in with Skip, but he's often annoying.

What I DO appreciate about Stephen A has nothing to do with hoops. He's a boxing fan, unlike 98% of the mainstream media, and he gives our sport coverage.

That I do appreciate.

Cavs started strong, but now the Dubs are up by 15.

Lookin like it's gonna end tonight.

 

When west came in the game changed for the warriors

 

Thus Faaaaaaar, Story of the Game is REBOUNDING, in REED's Opinion...

Can't Allow the "Finesse" Team to OUTrebound You 25-15 in a Close Out Game...9-6 on the Offensive Boards and Unlike Cleveland, GS Converts Those Into 3's...

Wouldn't Hurt if Kevin Love Actually SCORED Some Points, Either...Even w/Early Foul Trouble, CAN'T Play 12 Fucking Minutes and Go SCORELESS, Bruh...

That Being Said, 'Nother Half to Go and Cleveland Only Down 11...






REED

 

Stephen A. Loooooooooooooooves the Taste of his OWN Dick for Sure...And NO, he's Not a "Leader" in the Least...





REED

 

You were one Kevin Durant injury and one freak shooting game by the Cavs from being dead on. Nice job.

 

Too much KD.

 

So Durant's "Freak Injury" is Fair Game Yet No Mention of Kawhi Leonard Being Taken Out FOR THE SERIES, by Pachulia's GOONish Ass Tactics, Down 23pts in Game 1???...

How Convenient...





REED

 

The Cavs would have put up a much better fight in this series if Deron Williams wasn't more shot than Roy Jones.

 

Durant Did his Thang-Thang in the Finals, Undeniably...

He's THE 2nd Best Basketball Player on the Planet, Hands Down, and as Bron Continues to AGE, Durant Will Eventually Take Over the Top Spot...Could Happen as Early as NEXT Season...

Durant Was Able to Consistently OFFSET Bron's Contribution and Exerted Considerably LESS of Himself in the Process...That was the Difference btwn Them, Head to Head...Durant Could Take Half a Quarter Here or There Off, Then Quickly Get Back in the Flow Via 2-3 Consecutive 3's, or Transition Buckets...

w/Durant MATCHING Bron (& SURPASSING him in Some Instances), it was IMPERATIVE Cleveland's "Others" Respond...Kyrie Had Pockets of Greatness, but was OUTPLAYED by Steph This Series, Overall...And Man for Man, the Rest of GS' Roster Outplayed the Rest of Cleveland's...

Made MORE Shots, Made TIMELY Shots, OUTREBOUNDED Them, OUTDEFENDED Them...

The BETTER Team Won, REED was WRONG and Neil was Ultimately Proven RIGHT...

Punk Ass Bitch!!!...





REEDo_O

 

Zaza took out two of the top 5 players in one season. Pretty impressive.

Leonard was already playing on a bum ankle though and the Spurs weren't winning that series either way IMO.

 

More Than Anything, REED UNDERestimated Just How WILLING Steph Curry Would Be in RELINQUISHING His Role as "The Man" on the Dubs...

It's CLEARLY Durant's Team Now...

But the Thing Is, as Durant's Getting "Best Player on the Planet" Consideration and MVP, Curry Has Removed HIMSELF from That Discussion...Probably FOREVER...







REED

 

Curry and Durant are about the same age. so pretty much currys whole life he must have been hearing about this durant guy. top recruit coming out of high school ,star of the mcDonalds game, 1 and done at texas, top draft pick. etc. curry knows the deal, and realizes who the more talented basketball player is. both guys realize how much easier the game becomes as team mates.
