Turns out, KD wasnt hiding, Russ just had fricking glue on his hands with the ball

no

he was hiding

he would literally sit in the corner and if the ball rotated to him he'd pass out of it and Russ would have to make shite happen

now, KD is a better player and more flexible and found his sweet spot while Russ has a definite peak without the flexibility, but what happened in OKC still happened. KD was bitch supreme because he couldn't (can't?) handle the pressure/criticism

Ehh. KD took the biggest shots of the series to put away the Cavs in the NBA Finals


I think Russ is a cancer and it infected KDs brain

He removed himself of the cancer and his brain worked again

Hardwn was the focal point of the Miami D. They wanted to make the other beat them. They couldn’t.

he wasn't even starting

and this was when nobody knew what he could be so it's no shame that a mismanaged harden didn't perform

Nah. This place loves a winner, no doubt, but they really love a guy who looks like he's trying all the time. Efficiency be damned. Kobe, Iverson, Westbrook, etc are beloved, nevermind the fact they've shot their team out of countless games. All it takes is one 40 point night for everyone to forget about the chucking and ball stopping.

I thought Kenny Smith was dead on when he talked about RWB in the pregame.

You focus on shutting down Rubio, you'll lose because he wants to pass anyway.

RWB's aggression is his worst enemy at times.

This is the same guy that said Houston would be better off keeping Dwight Howard over Harden, so don't feel too bad MSB folks.

I never said they would be ‘better off’. Nice reach. Well not really. Go play somewheres bro.

harden still missed a ton of open 3 point shots in that series. that's what people are referencing

and everyone except scott brooks thought that westbrook, harden, and KD needed to play at the same time all game

thabo and perkins were legit 0s on offense and what were they trotting out at the 4? collison?

they fricked their franchise acquiring perkins to face Dwight and then not having money to pay harden, too (right as the NBA was going small)

Harden was the focal point of their D. you remember him missing a couple shots but don’t remember the other ways Miami focused on him to cut the head off the snake, that’s on you. Go back and watch the tape.

Whatever language you used you wanted to keep dwight over James Harden. That's a fact.
