@Malta I think the rest that Kyrie needs isn't manageable in this playoff window. It's a wrap for my mans.
Yeah it looks like I was right about the fact that it's more than a tweaked ankle
Gotta abandon the league and re-join on my invite of COLI XV V4
Had to track you down here
You getting ready early breh
You getting ready early breh
never too early to talk shyt
@ this attack at dawn ass post. Guerrilla warfare and shytParker was gimpy all year and they had the #7 offense in the league.
Good defense is good defense, act like a team losing it's best defender for 17 games has no bearing.
When did I say that?
No argument on that point. You're still ignoring the effect of playing in a historically bad conference. 8 of the 10 worst offenses in the league played in the East
t..
Bruh, this is like proof that you don't understand what we're talking about. Having more than 1 wing player that can score means there's no place to hide Barnes or Reddikk, it also puts pressure on CP3 to defend if one of them is a PG. In the Bulls and Cavs case, they would have to use Barnes and CP3 to check Rose/Irving Bron/Butler since Butler is too big for Reddikk.
Barnes is going to guard Butler and Paul is going to guard Rose. Butler has the advantage in that matchup, but he didn't turn into Kobe over night. Paul can guard Rose, Rose has no shot at matching him defensively.
Good point, I was doubting them when that happened as well.The Celtics in 08 lost to the Hawks 3 times and the Cavs 3 times
You using ppg to justify this nonsense? What is this 1987?He was better than Duncan on offense this season
Gasol scored more points because he had to shoulder more of the load with Butler/Rose missing so many games. Duncan doesn't take on a lot offensive responsiblity in the regular season and he shot better from the field. Even if we assume their even, the gap on defense is huge and non-debatable. Blaked avg. 24 13 and 7 against Timmy what do you think he's going to do against Gasol?
Noah and Gasol can't move, they don't have the athleticism to handle Deandre and Blake.Where you getting that? I'm seeing 105 for his defensive rating with the Cavs?
Either way he's not doing anything with DJ. DJ's defensive rating was 98 by the way. 99 in the playoffs.
Yes, because that means Jason Terry doesn't start and Pablo Prigioni doesn't get minutes
Of course he's going to be better than Pablo/Terry, but not enough to make a difference in a series where the Clippers are shooting 50% from the field, 38% from 3 and dropping 120ppg.
You think Butler's reached elite status?Ariza is not Jimmy Butler or Kyrie, he occupies the same role as Dunleavy and JR Smith, being serviceable and being an elite scorer are entirely two different things. Butler & Kyrie can take over a game when Rose/LeBron are off, Ariza cannot
Paul and Blake can't take over a game?
In that game Bron and Kyrie combined for 70, shot 55% from the field and 3, Tristan dropped 24 on 80% shooting
and Paul was 4-15. I concede if they were able to keep that up for the series they win.
And if not for a CP3 brain fart/epic collapse they're up 3-2 going home with a chance to clinch
. No duo left in the playoffs is as good as Durant and Westbrook.I get wing scoring is a weakness for the Clips and makes them vulnerable, but the advantage their front court has over Cleveland/Chic >>>>
At least Cleveland can put Shump on CP3. You think Thibs would put Butler on him? I don't think he can guard him, even if he can that would take away from his offense.
