Kevin Durant let Javale get his first Finals dunk. KD is all right with me.

So during the game the announcer kept saying Curry was 'showing' on pick n rolls. I am dumb and have no idea what this means.

Fast Luck posted:Honestly, Kevin Durant's legacy will be worse having won 12 championships with the Warriors than it would be if he never made the finals in Oklahoma City. I was looking for that youtube of the 2 guys on a tree limb, then on the moon and the one guy says to the other "biiiitch" (edit- he's talking about his wife) It seems appropriate every time Durant's name is posted. Someone help a brotha out

Metapod posted:No way in hell he gets forgiven like that Correct. The way he would get forgiven like Lebron would be if he wins a couple of rings and then goes home like Lebron did. Home for Durant is DC, which has a Bullets errr.. Wizards fanbase that has suffered for decades. If he went there he would be forgiven, and if he managed to get them a title, he would ascend to God-King status overnight.

BitterAvatar posted:So during the game the announcer kept saying Curry was 'showing' on pick n rolls. I am dumb and have no idea what this means. If you are guarding the screener you dive quickly up to the ball handler whilst still trying to keep in contact with the roller, giving time for the player guarding the ball handler to fight over the screen and get back on his man. Then you quickly drop back to your original man who is now rolled into the paint. It's a way of guarding the pick and roll without having to switch it, but it requires excellent defensive coordination and a lot of effort. Chris Bosh shows here on this PnR at the end of this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TR8fkYZ6S3w Cleveland got a lot of joy in the first quarter because Curry was showing aggressively to avoid Lebron switching onto him, but there were a few times he lost his original man and couldn't get back to him quick enough and then another time I remember where he fell back to pick up his man before the original defender had got back to Lebron, giving him a wide open three. But then the Cavs started to self destruct with turnovers and lazy poo poo so didn't really exploit much in the second half. tanglewood1420 fucked around with this message at 17:56 on Jun 2, 2017 |

predicto posted:Talk about revisionist history. The difference between a 55 win team and a 73 win team is much smaller than the difference between a 55 win team and a 37 win team; the Thunder weren't that far removed from contention and as was previously stated almost beat the 73 win team and were up 3-1. A massive upset but not luck or anything like that. They also beat the #2 seed in the West. The Thunder weren't some scrub team hoisted up by Durant either. WhyteRyce posted:On thing I enjoy about the Warriors winning right now is that they can plug anyone in as a head coach and the team still looks like one of the greatest ever...anyone except for Mark Jackson Please do not discount Mike Brown's ability to gently caress the Cavs

If David Stern was still commissioner he would already have some of those Jersey Mob guys headed over to Turkey to assassinate Erdogan and take care of this problem for Kanter. He knows where the bodies are buried because he buried them.

Cool Buff Man posted:No, it's not It's much harder to go from 55 to 73 wins vs 37 to 55, but I think Declan's point is at that level things like match-ups, health, etc become a lot bigger factors than if you look at a 60 win 1 seed vs a 42 win 8th seed. I also think the Thunder were absolutely a contender or very close to it. I can tell because they were in a game 7 in the WCF.

Yeah I can agree with that interpretation, I was just going by the fact that there has been one 73 win team ever.

Yeah rumour is that Tolliver was a great veteran. Wasn't there some report about him working with the young guys and telling them something like "my job is to teach you how to take my job"? That kind of frankness, humiliate and willing to teach while being putting up solid minutes as a stretch four off the bench seems like it would be worth the 6 mill he was getting paid in this economy, but I ain't Vivek.
