also, are the lakers tanking guys? byron scott isn't a good coach by any standards, but i don't think anyone would keep on trying to play bass at center and ryan kelly at pf at the same time unless they were out there trying to lose. both his offensive and defensive sets are absolutely putrid. there's just no way that he can be that bad on accident.

That portland team was dead by the playoffs. Did you even fucking watch basketball last year? Their entire team was basically dead by the playoffs, including Aldridge who put off surgery to keep playing.

Seriously niggas don't know about the Portland injury curse that team had like 80% of their roster dead.

His jumper is $$ now and leaving him open to take it in rythm is honestly becoming automatic only time he fucks up is when they half close out and he pump fakes first

yeah he's gotten a lot better at hitting wide open shots. they need to become automatic, though. with that and a three pointer he's going to be even more unstoppable than he already is. he's a monster. hopefully cp3 will be able to acknowledge that blake owns the team now when it comes down to it.

Kawhi is the guy you put on the other team's best perimeter player to shut them the fuck down, whereas Draymond is the guy who can switch every pick and roll, guard every position and shut down the possession. Different types of defenders.

that's the matchup issue. you can put kawhi/green on curry/klay, but that leaves parker on either barnes or green (with aldridge guarding the other guy). barnes is going to feast on that matchup.

yeah i just don't see how that's going to work. people talk about how good the acquisitions were for the spurs, but they truly needed a stopper at the pg position. cojo could have probably done an okay job but he left for toronto.

i'll reserve full judgment until they actually play each other, but they're probably going to need to make some moves before the trade deadline. parker is really dragging them down.

randle has been beasting. clarkson has been, too. though randle is pretty much a rookie, he did have the entire season to shadow the team which has proven to be invaluable. even dirk had praise for him.

russell looks fucking shook out there, though. his shot is pretty as fuck and his midrange is butter, but his threes are always an inch short and the princeton offense is preventing him from being an actual playmaker (the reason why he was drafted).

i think he's slowly letting the game come to him, but he's being put in a system that's going to fail him when the offense should center around him and his court vision.

>>63295451
though kobe is playing like absolute shit, byron's offensive system is literally shoot if you have even an inch of air space. if you don't believe me, look at any other player. look at the abysmal assist number. they're encouraged to chuck.

russ just can't make plays in the atrocious rendition of the princeton offense byron is implementing.

drafting a guard with court vision and then not using his court vision is just mind boggling...which has led me to the conclusion that the lakers are trying to lose to keep the draft pick. i'd be fine with this typically, but russell isn't going to develop at all this way.

marc honestly should have jumped ship when he had the chance. the team is aging and the grizz's answer to lack of offense was to sign matt fucking barnes (terrible signing i don't care what anyone else says).

it all went downhill when they fired hollins. if you want to go further than that, trading gay for tayshaun prince was a mistake, too.

>>63295541
jesus. i honestly wouldn't even be mad at that if that didn't mean russell wasn't getting screwed over because of it. it's time for kobe to sit down and let the young guys drive the car like he said he would.

him gunning for any records now just looks pathetic. he doesn't have it in him anymore. he's just going to look worse and worse if he doesn't turn himself into a role player or just retire.

it's just depressing to see at this point. even last year he was able to actually score on people with a torn rotator cuff (although inefficiently).

he just can't play anymore. he has no lift on his shot. he's getting embarrassed by mediocre defenders.

how can he retool his game? his entire game was making impossible shots. it's over. i don't even think he can be a spot up shooter.

He needs to man the fuck up and accept being a role player. None of this iso bull crap. Take open shots, pass the ball and defend. He can do it, it's a question of mentality. Sadly it doesn't look like he's capable of changing.

>>63297276
Game was close in closing minutes.
Kat and plum get tangled up for jumpball(foul on Kat)
Wiggins called for offensive goaltending (this was close)
Crabbe steal to end game (this was clean)

I would say jumpball was worst call though. It really came down to Dame hitting a clutch shot with a minute left while Wolves missed most of their ending shots.

>>63297424
Like no one has tried that

Warriors small lineup is big, because everyone is long and quick, Klay, Iguodala, Barnes, Green. Green plays like a legit center, he's the x factor that makes dubs nellie so good. With the 3pt shooting and defense, you can't play against small ball warriors without going small, you'd need to hope for poor 3P from them, but thats usually a very bad gamble

>>63297638
Kawhi is probably the best at guarding the opposing team player of same position, but Green is most likely the only player in the league that can switch 1-5. Depending on one's definition of vest defender, Green may very well be the best. I personally believe the best defender is the one who can make the most positive impact for his team on defense, and thus I think Green is the best. He gives Warriors the ability to run small, their most dominant defensive line up

>inb4 no DPOY

is it just me or has lebron gone kinda shit? compare his 2012 statline to now. shit look at just the efficiency, forget about the actual stats.

dude almost got DPOY back then too, now he's gone the kobe route and legit never plays defense. the main thing is his efficiency; he was a god near the basket, and his shooting was good too. Now he's just good near the basket, and his shooting has gone off a fucking cliff. like he's forgotten how to shoot or something.

his FT% is pretty bad too desu. And he very rarely does stuff on the fast break anymore, whereas in 2012 literally every game Miami had a highlight of Lebron dunking on the fast break.

is it really possible that he's regressed this much in 3 years? hell even 2 years; last year he was just as bad, especially throughout the finals. The biggest tell of his decline is his defense though. Doesn't really try on D at all, not even the cruise 3 quarters and turn it up in 4th. I dont blame him cause he has to do everything on O, but damn, that won't be changing imo. His teammates are injury prone fuck turds

i blame fucking love and irving. 2 worthless fuckboi's who were supposed to shoulder minutes, yet Lebron's played more than both of them last year and this prolly this year too. so fucking sad to see Lebron declining faster because he's forced to play more minutes to carry garbage tier injured shits

is it that hes in his 30s now and his playstyle isnt one that suits older players? is it that he stopped roiding? is it the cleveland loser mentality?
>>
>>63298571

I honestly think he stopped roiding and everyone just turned the other cheek. Could you imagine if the most popular athlete in American sports today was caught up in a Steroids Scandal?

They look like it. I love every second of it. Do any of you Pistons fan go on the Piston message board on Pistons.com? You should

I had fans on there who watched the Pistons in the 70s then Bad Boys Era then Teal Era then Going to Work Era now Made in Detroit Era.

I was spoiled with the team in the 2000s and after these long 5 years I appreciate this a lot more then I did the one in the early 2000s. I miss them but I love how Drummond wants to be the best center in the league. He is bullish with his play.
The team is playing together. It is fascinating to see the team do a great job of playing together and playing hard nosed defense. Morris is being unleashed and KCP's game has stepped up.

No but I might check it out. I didn't start watching the Pistons or basketball till last year so anywhere I can learn more about the team or game would be really cool.
