Nah breh, let Jersey claim him, lol.



I blame Kerr :manny:
Steve Kerr ain't coaching shyt.. Can't believe people really thought he was a good coach after Luke Walton did better numbers with the same team...

Can't wait to hear the same about Steve Nash..


Maybe it's cause they're named Steve right :mjpls:

The nerve of you posting this nonsense after caping for Pop in my thread. Some of y'all just need to stay on the sidelines when it comes to hoops.

Blame Kerr for what, exactly?

Mulder
JTA
Poole
Bazemore
Looney

Five players of their eight-man rotation who wouldn't crack the rotations of almost all the other playoff squads. Along with Wiggins and Draymond who thecoli thinks are bums. That's seven of their eight-man rotation right there.

The remaining player is Steph....

Rod's dumbass failures to mention the Grizzlies took MORE three-point shots than the Warriors (shooting 43% from behind the arc on 15-35), and it was one of the main reasons why they won. But he wants to highlight two midrange buckets to layer a tired agenda when Ja was allowed to get to his spots because he was allowed to go 1v1. Steph didn't have the luxury to get to his spots inside the arc because he was defended by multiple guys, and none of his teammates showed a willingness or even had the capability to create their own shot.

The irony is, the Grizzlies first THREE field goal makes in OT were all from behind the arc, where they went 3-3. bu-bu-but midrange!

This is why basketball discourse is trash. Nxggas that played the game at the highest level talking absolute cotdamn nonsense.

Would have been more fun with a competent additional playmaker like Lamelo tho ...too bad they picked a 1995 big man instead :mjlol:
lamelo folded big time in that Indiana Play-in game. didnt he have a bunch of turnovers as well???

Ja took TWICE as many 3s (5-10 for 15 points) as he did midrange jumpers. bu-bu-but midrange!

:damn:
Like a true casual, you missed the part where he said basketball is about feel, IQ and situations. Ja knew when it was winning time to go to the basket, not settle for a contested 3 pointer.

You missed the part where I just posted Ja was allowed to go 1v1 in those situations, and Steph had multiple defenders on him on every possession. Ja could get to his spots, and Steph couldn't.

Besides, that's all besides the point, the Grizzlies' 3-pt shooting had infinitely more impact on them winning than TWO midrange jumpers did. Only nxggas with an agenda would overemphasize those two shots. Imagine if the Grizzlies scored the majority of their points from midrange jumpers, and scored TWO three-pointers right at the end of the game, and someone came along and tried to bring up 3-pt shooting as the reason for why they won.

Just straight-up dishonest discourse.

I said Steve was trash back when Rodman said it. It’s documented. I still think pop is a legend. You talking bout left behind and this man still made the play in with who again?

I’m not sure what your point is
