Let @Malta and @I.V. tell it tho, Warriors would beat them. Anyone taking this Warriors team over the 2012 Thunder team is FOOLING themselves.



The same Thunder team that had no idea how to handle the idea of the Heat playing small and defending Kendrick Perkins and their bigs with wing players :Chill1: They made no adjustments to that, bet on a Scott Brooks coached team brehs.

In 2012 Kobe's usage rate in the playoffs was 36%, he shot 43% from the field, 28% from three... averaged 5 rebounds and 4 assists per game... and got dumped in the second round.

Kobe was the sole offensive focus, and performed worse.

And before you argue that lebron is arguing weak defensive teams... Seven of those games were against Denver.

Close this thread, and hit the books.
so you are comparing 34 year old Kobe on bad knees with 30 year old Lebron?? :russ:

I want to know what part of this playoff run that GS is on is impressive to you right now?

Meanwhile OKC beat the Mavs who won the title the year before, the Lakers and the Spurs. GS hasn't faced competition and when they did, key players were hurt. I wouldn't even put money on the Warriors beating the 2012 Spurs. GS hasn't impressed me at all. Westbrook has given Curry that work in their matchups too.

The Thunder did not handle small ball when they were faced with it, they started Kendrick Perkins all 5 games, even though it was pretty obvious the Heat kept putting wing players on him :dead: But nah, they gonna beat the small ball squad that pulls their center from the court just so they can expose matchups.

That team got handled by the Spurs the next round... you're on drugs if you think a Scott Brooks-led squad could have figured out how to guard this Warriors team. James Harden guarding Klay Thompson... HAHAHAHA Perkins guarding Iggy or Draymond. Stooop.



:heh:

This is so see through

Nah nah nah... but no agenda. :mjlol:

This series got James Harden ran out on a rail.... oh but they woulda cooked against the suns, though. Best defensive team in the NBA this year. :francis:

so you are comparing 34 year old Kobe on bad knees with 30 year old Lebron?? :russ:

But I thought he was throwing up 40 and 50 easy? :ohnonono:

Now he has bad knees? :kobechair:



Which one is it? :smugsilver:

They were the best team in the West and 2nd best team in the league. Let's ignore that.


They couldn't play small ball and didn't trust Kawhi, but hey that's the same team as they've been the last 2 years according to you :scust:


You ignore that the Thunder look completely lost when faced with a small ball team.

:pachaha: @ "points" I showed him a comparable playoff performance by Kobe, only way way worse, with a better team.


YIKES.
1. Didn't have a 44% usage rate
2. Non of those teams played small ball to the extent that the tallest player on the court for an extended period of time was 6'8"
3. Both the nuggets and thunder had rim protectors playing at a much higher level than Bogut
4. Kobe was in his 15th season, 33 and his knees were almost shot.
5. Kobe was still scoring more efficiently :francis:


But if you really think those situations are comparable ok:yeshrug:

No Diaw breh. Really. Ironically, the only championship they won since 2007 was with Diaw playing like pure shyt. Spurs didn't win the championship but were they still not dominant? OKC was a major underdog and won. No one had OKC winning and they won 4 straight.

Please explain to me what happened in the finals when the Thunder were faced with a small ball team, I want your breakdown as to why Kendrick Perkins was getting 23mpg, even though the Heat were guarding him with LeBron & Battier.

I really dont see '12 OKC v. '15 Warriors being the crux of either argument here

Kobe stans just deflecting and trying to make this about something else

Bron is having a legendary Finals, period
