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

So Curry basically shitting in Durants face now...

 

Dame is learning the hard way that Steph is just a weeeee bit better than Westbrick.

 

CONTEXT...

Smarmy Media Dude Openly Questioning the Losing Coach, Strategically...Stotts Wasn't Saying They'd NEVER Go OVER Screens to Defend Steph, He was Saying "Going Over the Screens DIDN'T Work for the Last Team that Had to Defend Steph, So we Tried Something Different in Game 1"...

In REED's Opinion, Anyways...





REED

 

32-4 when Steph Plays and KD Doesn't...





REED

 

While True, Russ OWNS Steph Head to Head, Typically...OKC was Up 3-1 on GS BECAUSE Russ was Torching Steph's Ass...





REED

 

Too much load management for Kawhi

 

While it's Nice Kawhi is CAPABLE of Consistently Producing the Numbers he Is, REED Doesn't Think Kawhi LIKES Doing So in a Losing Effort...

31 and 8 Should Win a Basketball Game Or PREVENT You from Getting Blown Out by 22, @ the Very Least...

Kawhi to the Clippers Seems Like a Natural Fit...w/Him, it's GS vs. LA in the Conference Finals, Instead of GS vs Portland...






REED

 

So instead of Looney or Bogut, Kerr decided to start Damian Jones for some reason.

He racked up three fouls in five minutes. Brilliant decision

 

Portland realized kanter is a liability defensively. Leonard has been a factor early

 

KD is a beta

 

Stotts is a coaching joke in the playoffs. If Dame and CJ are going to keep getting doubled why doesn’t Stotts have the unguarded man try to move away from Dame & CJ to try and create some space or get open for a shot? Instead the open man just continues to do...nothing?

I actually started rooting for Golden State in this one, because let’s just get it over with already. I’m done watching this series and if Toronto likewise loses at home, I’m done watching that series too.

 

33-4 when Steph Plays and KD Doesn’t.






REED

 

It'll be 38-4 once Steph and the Super Warriors inexplicably sweep the young Bucks, unless KD pulls a fake Willis Reed in game 4

 

Khris Middleton is the homeless man's Klay Thompson

 

Maybe curry can get his first finals mvp if Durant sits

 

Damian Lillard got his ribs roasted

 

This shit on Durant for joining the Warriors baffles me a bit.

He gets shit for joining a team that beat him after he had a 3-1 lead. That same team went on to lose 3-1 in the Finals (which had never happened) after a season they'd won more games than any team in NBA history.

Draymond, Klay, Steph and Iggy recruited HIM.

It's not often I hear those guys catching shit for recruiting him like agents after Zion.

 

You’ve got to be either a Warriors fan or a mainstream basketball fan. Durant deserved every ounce of the criticism he received and it’s directly reflected in how much more interesting the playoffs/Warriors have gotten since he got injured. I hope he never plays for them again.

 

G.S is better without Durant

 

I agree. Everyone thinks it’s dumb to say that and on paper GState is a better team with Durant. However, there is such a thing as chemistry, as the game being more fun for everyone involved when Durant isn’t there. The fact is GState hasn’t come close to breaking the 73 win record with Durant on the team and I think it’s his presence that brings the team energy down.

 

exactly

 

The fact is Durant has to leave GState. Klay and Dramond’s contracts are up and both of them want their money after taking discounts before. There is no way a team can give four players the max especially when two of them will be super max contracts (Curry & Durant).

 

The Problem is GS Won a Championship the Year PRIOR, THEN Durant-Russ Choked Away the 3-1 Lead, THEN GS Loss an NBA Finals They were HEAVILY Favored to Win...

Championship Ring Already, 73-9 Record the Following Year, Loss in Game 7 of the NBA Finals...Clearly, Durant was a LUXURY, Not a NECESSITY...

Let's Say Miami was the Defending Champs, They Go 73-9, Bron Chokes Away a 3-1 Lead to Them, Miami Goes On to LOSE That Years Finals and Bron's w/Them the Following Season...REED GUARANfuckingTEES You'd Never Allow Bron to Hear the End of it Bruh...

Durant PIGGYBACKED His Way to a Championship Muzse...Phenomenal Player, Sure-Fire 1st Ballot Hall of Famer, but Facts is Facts...







REED

 

Facts.

Durant thought a championship would define his legacy and he took the easiest route available to attain that goal. If you had instead stuck Russell Westbrook on the Warriors and left Durant in OKC then even Westbrook would have won one or two championships.

 

I get that and I said as much in my post. But you didn't address my question.

My question is, why doesn't Steph and Klay's legacy take a hit as well? They came back from 3-1 then blew a 3-1 lead in the Finals. They had the greatest season in NBA history then choked away the title.

Again, THEY RECRUITED him. Just seems unreasonable to not apply the same standard to Steph and Klay considering they sought out Durant. Durant shows up, they pick up two additional chips and he wins MVP in both series.

Obviously they didn't feel he was a luxury considering they'd collapsed the previous season.

The criticism should flow both ways.

 

Don't agree with the Westbrook piece. Not a complimentary player. He's too ball dominant to fit in that construct. Why would you want him if you've got guards who can shoot like Curry and Thompson?

 

They Won a Championship WITHOUT KD Muzse, That's Why...KD's Never Won w/Out Them...KD Never Beat Them in a Playoff Series Either...KD Needed GS More Than GS Needed KD, Clearly...

And Technically, it was Draymond that Recruited KD, to Offset Bron's Contribution...The Very Same Draymond that Didn't Hesitate to Remind KD, "We've Won WITHOUT You", During a Heated Exchange in a Team Huddle..

After an EPIC Collapse, KD was Signed and Now GS is On Their Way to 3-Peating in a Couple Weeks, More Than Likely...But the Fact Remains, They've Won WITHOUT KD, He Hasn't Won Shit w/Out Them...

That's Why the Criticism Doesn't Flow Both Ways Bruh...






REED

 

4-0 sweep, good God man KD is a super beta

 

Golden state wins zero titles without Durant if Irving didnt get injured in their first championship run

They don't beat Milwaukee or Toronto this year without Durant either
