SO I GUESS U DONT COUNT GSW CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2015 THEN RIGHT AND IN 2016 CURRY WAS NOT HURT DOING THIS


Actually, I do think that the Warriors win in 2015 without Love merits consideration.

(and Curry's knee would swell badly after games, my boy Amin saw it himself after the games in the Finals last year).

Honestly, I don't even know if we can blame Lue. I mean how much say does he really have in the running of things? Does he have his own voice, or is his voice tuned to what LeBron wants to hear? The fact that LeBron most probably drew up that play at the most critical point of the game leads me to believe that he has the ultimate say.

:manny:

Do you think Lebron will humble himself to allow a more motion oriented offense to come into play as he gets older?

NALL HIM AND MELO WOULD HAVE HAD 5 BY NOW HIS KNEES WORK UNLIKE BONE TO BONE WADE :lolbron:
The same Carmelo that hasn't even made the playoffs since 2013? The same Carmelo that still won't pass the ball or play defense? The same Carmelo that misses plenty of games himself?

So the right play defensively is to give up the lead and not crowd him and at worse give up a tie by forcing him to drive?

The way LeBron described it, he didn't want KD to "jump into him" while shooting the three to possibly draw a foul. So he gave him space so that he could contest the shot safely. He was willing to take that gamble but unfortunately for him, KD made the shot.

I meant that the Warriors winning in 2015 without Love shouldn't be all on Bron. Edited my post.
They were in that series BECAUSE love was out hurt. He's consistently been useless on offense the last two finals and been mercilessly picked on when the warriors have the ball. He's damn near unplayable against the warriors. 4-13 in game 1 and 1-9 last night.

He needs to, that's what Blatt was trying to install. It would make the game easier for him IMO. You can't keep relying on IsoBron and IsoKyrie.

No they wouldn't have. You are the best player in the NBA. You take that shot and not pass it off to a Kyle Korver equivalent on your team.

Remember Chauncey Billups? He actually missed a ton of late game shots on the Pistons, but he made enough to still stick with the label and not passing it off to a role player.

Sports analysis is fickle like that. Korver's one job is to shoot and he is one of the all time great shooters and you're here acting like it was stupid he was even getting a shot...just because he missed.

The same thing would be happening with Durant.

:yeshrug:

Love is an "ain't my fault" all star this series though. His rebounding has definitely been great for the Cavs.

But who we really need to be shyttin on is Tristan. Bron got him paid and this is how he returns the favor? :scust:

He already conceded the three. I'm saying don't concede the three. He gave up ground to the point he was already behind the three point line before KD pulled up. In fact, KD said the only reason he pulled up is because Bron was already behind the line. You're talking about how he contested the shot.....I'm talking about taking that option off the table all together.
