CK4: The Team that made Pat & The Team that the Don made: The Miami Heat vs Your Boss Angeles Lakers

[Jordan>>LeFrozen]

God I pray the Nets are healthy next year. We need a much more entertaining finals series with some narratives to boot.

Miami ain’t healthy and you got two kids contributing big minutes in Herro and Nunn. Duncan Robinson couldn’t hit a lake with a rock and Butler looks compromised. Everybody else contributes in bits and pieces.

Kyrie Irving was a better subject than these finals so far

God forbid we box out a guy crashing for an offensive rebound

Our defense has looked like shyt, ngl. Still giving up wide open shots all game long like game.1

 

[Biscayne]

Spos my guy, but when you only have AD out there as a true offensive mismatch, you gotta get out of the Zone and switch to man. Lakers are getting wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open shots from anywhere. Like there’s no defensive resistance. Lakers be so wide open, they hesitate to shoot because they can’t believe how wide open they are on some of those possessions. Rondo was looking to pass and was like “Oh, nobodies on me? Aight” on that paint shot.



I’ve never seen so many wide open shots in the finals. Just wiiiiiiiiiiiide open.

Defensively, this is where we miss Bam. Bam could at least mitigate the size a bit, when we play Kelly O extended minutes and he’s getting son’d. Bam gives us resistance. Offensively, Dragic gives us another player who can attack, initiate offense, and draw fouls. This is tough to watch. I could only imagine how much tougher it is to watch for Bam and Goran.

The only question is who wins finals MVP Bron or AD


Bron has been a bit better this game

 

[Hacksaw Jim Thuggin]

Herro and Duncan are as bad as you can possibly get on defense. My lord

That's what happens when you only value shooting....

How bad they begs to question why couldn't the bucks or Celtics take advantage of it?

 

[Ziggiy]

Is Jimmy hurt? He’s passive as fukk

He fukked his ankle up in Game 1

 

[iamduval]

I’d consider starting iggy and Nunn over Tyler and Duncan to begin the 2nd half. Just for the sake of basketball

Bucks are a one man band and Celtics are the most overrated team this decade

That’s the thing. When the game was in reach, Miami didn’t do the things we were actually in control of.

thats the actual game plan...

3 points is one way to beat the zone...problem is..lakers are making a 3rd of it and then defending hard the other side...

but thats what beat the buck so bad,

 

[iamduval]

Lol Lebron gave Duncan a jab step while we were in zone and he literally slid 10 feet. Deer caught in headlights
