I chalk that wardrobe up to the younger generation,, but my that kid brings it every single night, balls to the wall, he plays with passion,, really bothers me how media finds one to jump on,, one thing we want as fans is for it to mean something to them, and it does to Russ , he gets killed in the media for not being what they think he should be, point guards are born not made,, they voted him 4th in the mvp race was absurd ,, barely played at all with durant, several mid season trades , playing in the much tougher western conference he dragged that team to 45 wins , he is twice the defender curry is, rebounder,
I'm actually on board with him 4th in the race. I wanted AD to take the MVP... but I got a thing for big men (no homosexual). My favorite all-time players was David Robinson, Hakeem, and Tim Duncan. Plus, AD took a pretty average NO team to the playoffs in the West, with Holiday being absent a large part of the season, Gordon being out, and Anderson constantly battling injury. Plus, the team made some pretty signficant moves mid-season. In addition, he himself was injured quite a bit and STILL managed to put up a good enough record to get them to the playoffs. My MVP lineup would be: 1) Anthony Davis 2) Steph 3) Lebron 4) Russ 5) Harden (<- can sukadik... HORRENDOUS Defense and half his ppg is from FT's from flopping)
Now we talking,, this i can dig,, Anthony Davis didn't make my mvp top 5 but he has shot up to 2 for my top 5 players,, spot on with woo woo harden,, his ass get way more calls than magic use to pulling that same shit ,, spot on with Pelicans Gordon doesn't have the body for a NBA season but he does have the jump shot,, been waiting on holiday to find himself it's been plenty long I've sat him in the category with his teammate tyreke Evans not a star and can't figure out why, all the pieces are there just can't do it, I can talk NBA hoops all day,, wait till you see muiday kid signed smu but played in China lake show will take him at 2 Kevin love is on the way in 16 will play with Julius randle and in 2017 we will all be like when did the lakers get good again and so quick,, saw muiday on NBA TV few months ago and the league about to take notice
Yeah, and Magic played in the era where Anthony Mason was roundhouse kicking cats for taking it to the hole. Back in Magics day, teams were picking up position players and labeling them 'bruisers' and it was their job to put Magic on his ass. Back in the day, you had to be an MMA fighter by night to survive the NBA by day. In Todays NBA, you get a flagrant 1 for ripping an SBD in the paint. Rick Mahorn would foul out before the opening tip off. At BEST, James Harden would be putting up 20ppg in that era of the NBA, and I think that's being generous.
I scream at the tv soon as he starts patting it to rush his ass and force him right, don't buy all that bs when he starts giving you the business and all he trying to do is get you to lean so he can go back left mofo buy it all the time , it's easier said than done, but any era woo woo gonna get buckets can't deny that dude
while i hope the cavs to win ...im slightly leaning toward gw winning. overall i just want a good series and see the riots
Is that it? Goodlove I nickname people,, you about to earn readers digest version ,, come on man,, how about who do you think lebron should guard? Should Kendrick Perkins sorry ass even on the playoff roster, do you deactivate delladanova? Cuz he has no place in this series,, when gs subs in the Brazilian blur he can't guard him or Livingston ,, Thompson as great of a rebounder he is what good is he ,, bet your sweet ass Kerr will have green out on the floor so Thompson can't give cavs 2nd chance points,, golden st in 5 ,, clev coming out of the east was easy take a look at golden st about same amount of losses and played the one team clev reminds me of Memphis , they dodged the Spurs but that's it
I think Russ gets more criticism, because he shoots a much lower 3pt percentage (29.9 this year) than Steph at 44, while averaging about 1 more turnover per game, although Russ has a slightly better assist to turnover ratio. I think the real issue with Russ is that he can get blinders on at times and force shots when he should be looking more for Durant (a former league MVP), the video below happens WAY too much. Curry has a lot of weapons on his team but nobody anywhere near the caliber of Durant. [YOUTUBE]vEisSzVZ2EU[/YOUTUBE]
Lol classic Russ ,, d rose does it woo woo does it swaggy p sure as hell does it, blame aau ball ( they love that one) lol,, i just wish we didn't have to kill him only about it,, Barkley will give a dude the business for the exact thing he use to do,, Russ ain't the 1st dude to freeze a teammate won't be the last,, Brandon Jennings is 29823 times worse than Russ with it,, Russ can't be a bring ball up court run the play pg ,, nothing about him says that,, and as he has matured the above does happen far less often ,, man still lol at that video them unis make it look even worst
Funny,, 2012 okc vs lakers all over again, to many shooters to young cavs to beat up., may be a sweep,, as well as lebron played , Warriors played average I don't think they can play any worse
If Kyree's injury last night is serious or limits him even more, the series is OVER. He was playing very well before twisting his knee again, and like I said, I don't trust JR to continue to hit those tough 3's like he did in the east finals. Fun game to watch though.
Shumpert shot lights out in the east final as well,, jr will have a game or 2 when he does go off, iman tho has shot his load, dude shoots to crooked, kyrie hurting we may see the matrix and miller on the floor, Loki for cavs to even have a chance don't you think they need to be aiming to try to keep these games in the 90's?
Very much agree, 90's or lower, much easier said than done against GS though, they share the ball so well and really look for each other, its a pleasure to watch such an unselfish team play at the highest level, makes them VERY hard to contain for all 48 minutes. Miller will need to find his shot again, he's been slumping, and I cover my eyes whenever the Matrix shoots, his form looks like hes trying to swat away a swarm of bees or something....terrible, still a capable defender though.
Can't kill my homeboy now Loki Marion is from Tennessee you can tell he started playing with a ball to big or on 10ft hoops,, and no one ever corrected him,, solid 15 yr career tho,, this is over on to the draft Telling you now wait till you see muiday play,, it is not going to take long before he gets that "we can't let this kid beat us " ,,
Well it looks like Kyree is out for the rest of the series with a fractured kneecap (ouch). I give Cleveland about a 10-15% chance of winning now (Lebron would have to do something beyond incredible every game now), such a shame, would have loved to have seen the Lebron, K-Love, Kyree, lineup going at it with GS.
