((((NBA)))) --2018/2019 SEASON

I actually think these playoffs have kind of exposed how badly Giannis needs to get a reliable jump shot. Much like with Ben Simmons, Giannis has been neutralized by Boston clogging up the paint.

I think Kawhi’s been more impressive, consistent and efficient than Durant has. Kawhi is also doing it without the help of any good shooters keeping the lane open and preventing double teams while Durant has the 2 GOATS ensuring he is always single covered.

I think Dame’s problem is he is leaning a little too far into the “not playing with emotion “ narrative that everyone gave him credit for against Westbrook. He actually looks listless out there and needs to crank up his effort a lot.

 

Not Sure if You're in Asia and the NBA Feeds Aren't Reaching You in a Timely Fashion, but Giannis Has Been BALLIN' Since Game 1 of the Boston Series Bruh...

Game 2 - 29,9 and 4
Game 3 - 32,13 and 8
Game 4 - 39,16 and 4

All Wins...

Kawhi's Had LESS Help than KD No Doubt...Dame's @ His Best When SLIGHTED or Presented w/a DEMONSTRATIVE Dude Like Westbrook...It's BETTER For You if You DON'T Wind Dame Up...

That's Where Russ Fucked Up...

Pressure's on GS Now...

List of guys who’ve underperformed in the playoffs:

Kyrie, Imbed, Ben Simmons, Westbrook, Paul George, Danny Green,

I download the games and watch them after the fact which if you stay away from knowing the outcome is the better way to watch. I have my computer mouse set up where I can slide the wheel and it will scroll the video feed ahead 5 seconds. It’s great for skipping free throws, dead time and even fuckers just walking the ball up the court too slow.

So far in the second round the only game I haven’t and won’t watch is game 4 Den-Por.

Giannis may have the numbers but he hasn’t been dominating like before due to the clogged lanes. He’s getting a lot of his points just from bulldozing his way to the rim and getting a lot of foul calls which is something Simmons needs to do. He’s also hitting the occasional 3 pointer. Not saying he ain’t balling he’s just not getting it as easily as before.

 

Damn it I just found out the outcome. Lol, my own fault to. Oh well I’m still going to watch it.

 

Sorry to Ruin it for You...Quality Game Nonetheless...

REED Thinks Game 5 is MUST-WIN for GS, Or Else Houston Will Close Them Out in Game 6...That Said, Klay's Been M.I.A. (Only 1 Game of 20+ pts This Series) and Steph's Been MEH By His Standards...

They're Both Due to ERUPT...

is ty lue the kenny bayliss to lebron james floyd mayweather jr ?

 

Basically...

Now Bron's Saying he Wants the Lakers to Add Thibs as an Assistant Coach...Really Wish he'd Focus More of His Efforts to ON Court Activities...

Not Saying Luke Walton is a Great Coach or Anything, but Bron NEVER Gave Dude a Chance...Just Like he NEVER Gave David Blatt a Chance...Just Like he TRIED to Not Give Eric Spoelstra a Chance, Until DWade and Pat Riley Put Their Foots Down and Told Bron to Back Off...

Bron is a Certified COACH KILLER...It's a NEGATIVE Characteristic he Can't Even Deny...

Get ready for James Jones to come out of retirement next year.

 

Laker-Lue Negotiations Reach an Impasse....







REEDo_O

 

Lue requesting to be on "The Shop" too often for Lebron's comfort zone.

 

Read that...said the Lakers wanted Jason Kidd on the staff? Did they not see how terrible he was with the Bucks?

 

Lue doesnt want his replacement on the staff

 

JJ is the GM for the Suns, I don’t think he’s giving up that gig to go take orders from LJ.

That’d be a terrible move for the Lakers but absolute theatre for everyone else in the world. Jason Kidd would begin Game Of Thrones level backstabbings, negative seed planting and political machinations to get Ty Lue removed and himself promoted the second the ink dries on his contract. From the stuff I’ve read Kidd is not a very honorable dude.

 

Stevens will be canned

 

Disappointing series from Irving . He simply didnt make shots he normally makes

 

I very seriously doubt that. But if he is he’d immediately get his choice of where he wants to coach next and could easily ask for allstar money to boot. I’d kill to get him on OKC.

Speaking of OKC:
Paul George apparently had rotator cuff surgery and needs to also have a procedure done on his labrum. Meanwhile Westbrook has had a minor surgery done on his finger and knee for what I think is the 5th season in a row he’s had some type of knee procedure done. Speculation is it’s probably a PRP injection which is pretty minor but a guy loses a little something every year just from aging, wear & tear and overuse. Annual invasive surgery only compounds the degeneration he’s going to experience.

Westbrook should be healthy in time for camp so hopefully he’ll have enough time to work on his game. George on the other hand is expected to miss training camp and the start of next season, so there’ll be no time to work on his game.

 

Kyrie is absolutely, positively, unquestionably one of the most overrated players in the history of the league.

 

KD tore his quads

 

Looked like he may have blew out his Achilles if anything. hopefully a false alarm

 

A false alarm and KD should start hopping out of the tunnel like Paul Pierce

 

Curry suspiciously looks like the 2015-16 Curry now that KD is injured

 

The Rockets somehow managed to pull off the double turn, now they're the heels and the juggernaut Warriors, with their inspired play, turned babyface

 

Nah, he suspiciously looked like the 2015-16 Curry cause Ayesha isnt satisfied with him anymore.

 

He Shouldn't Be...

It's Not His Fault Kyrie's a POOR Fit for His Team, Nor Did Stevens Make the Trade for Him...The Progress of Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown STAGNATED Under Kyrie's "Leadership"...

Time to Make THAT Change...






REED

 

Milwaukee's Probably the Looooooooooooooooooongest Team in the League, Man for Man...






REED

 

He's Mostly Overrated in his OWN Mind...

Kyrie Views Himself as this Jordan, Kobesque, ALPHA Assassin When the Evidence Shows he's Probably Better Suited as the 2nd Wheel...





REED

 

He's talented but not a leader. Basically ruined DOOK's chemistry when he came back for the tournament.

 

irving reminds me of bryant as far as leadership abilities. neither are really good leaders, bryant was just a better player

 

I'm not sure Kyrie is "over-rated", I think for a little while he was actually a little under-rated, including by myself (he's outplayed Steph Curry head to head several times), but he should never have been "The Guy", on any team he was on. He's just not built for it.

The whole Gordon Hayward experiment hasn't exactly worked out for the Celtics either.
