Iso ball isn't dead

I've seen a lot of post in the past saying we could never win with Tyreke because he is too ISO heavy. That in order to win it must be constant passing which is not his style. This year it has been proven to be a lie, the top teams in the league all play I so heavy ball Spurs, Cave, Raptors, and Thunder. The Thunder are currently beating the warriors with this so called non efficient style or "Month ball" that people called it. So stop following trend and trying to become a copycat team because it never works. Emwe won with ISO heavy play last year, AD thrived in that system, we sucked playing pass first even during that small stretch of being healthy.
Gentry was a shite hire should of got a defensive minded coach our offense was fine.
Heild and Valentine are overrated the Thunder are causing havoc because they have long athletic defenders which they are not. But but they shoot 3s and are nonathletic like Curry and Draymond so we can be just like GSW!
You baws no nothing about basketball and most of your opinions are awful.

Can I be the first to say that Reke is no Westbrook?

Of course not be he's not far from a Derozan who just tied the series vs the Cavs.

You really suck as a poster. Just thought I would get that out the way.

Are you even watching the playoffs? Cavs were rolling people b/c they weren't playing ISO ball. OKC is wrecking through the Spurs and Warriors by not playing ISO ball.
When the Cavs and OKC have played great this postseason, they are playing the Warriors style of offense.

Okc is a ISO heavy team what are you talking about? Also a team with Kyrie and Lebron on it will always be I so heavy. Of course they still move the ball but nothing close to what Golden State does which on here people think is the only way to win.

Have you watched the games they have won? It's a shite ton of ball movement compared to their usual heavy iso sets...they aren't alternating possession like they have been, they're making good passes and looking to pass more.

Even if you were right, which you aren't as both OKC and the Cavs have been moving the ball quite a bit, especially OKC, then your next argument is that we need to have two generational talents on the team to not have to pass the ball, or one of the top 2-3 players to ever play the game. Its just that easy.

Talk about a thread backfire lol.
Abandoning ISO ball in favor of ball movement has been exactly why the Cavs and OKC are finding success.
OKC is playing team ball. 5 starters in double digits and Westbrook actively saying he needs to be a better facilitator. OKC has been killing GS in part because their own lineup of death with ibaka at the 5, Durant at the 4 and Robertson, Waiters and Westbrook has been a better version of GS's. Both teams have also put a new emphasis on 3 point shooting.

This nailed it. OKC is doing well because they are moving the ball and not getting stuck in the iso trap. Billy Donovan is kicking arse working with KD and Westbrook to move some away from iso ball. But as FunBunch stated, OKC could play ISO ball because they have 2 of the top 10 players in the league.

Cleveland made their run in Game 4 with good ball movement, then down the stretch reverted back to iso and lost the game.

And hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha to Tyreke being close to derozan.
The gap between lin and Tyreke ia closer than Tyreke and derozan. Let that sink in.

Yikes man. just yikes.
Yes, the old Cleveland and OKC are heavy iso. This new and improved dominant OKC and Cleveland are moving the ball and shooting the 3 like crazy.
