2006Coltsbestever Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 This is Houston's game to steal, only down 89-87. Warriors have played flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldunclemark Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 This is ugly to watch.....89-89 6:00 to go Nobody uses a center..everybody takes bad shots (because they can make them) and all the shooters pretend they're being fouled to fool the refs.. Steph isnt 100%.....not as quick as he normally is. ..and where is Clint Capella....4 points and 6 rebounds...?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2006Coltsbestever Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 IMO, the best teams I have ever seen are the 1987 Lakers #1 = Magic, Kareem, Worthy, and Scott. 1996 Bulls #2 = Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, and Kukoc. 1986 Celtics #3 = Bird, McHale, Parish, and DJ. 2001 Lakers #4 = Kobe, Shaq, Horry, and Fish. These Warriors belong in that group with Durant, Curry, Klay, and Green if they win it all again. It would be neat to see them lose but I cant root for a flopper like Harden or a softy like CP3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Harden does to draw fouls is exactly what Steph does. ..and both teams have popularized distance shooting as a team cure-all ..and nobody can cheer for Draymond Green I'm guessing you will hear a lot about the officiating in this series.

The way Golden State plays is the opposite of what I know as basketball They try to take bad shots. they set screens going away from the basket to take advantage of their distance shooting ability. Steph jumps into the defender ALL the time. Exactly what Harden does. Fouls that would not have been called in any other era. I just think that's a cowardly way to play the game. If you are real, you don't fly into the defender and flop... And Draymond is just Draymond. Constant whining....Cheap shots and missed 3s T-fouls We will have to disagree on this one. I think the Golden State Warriors have hurt the sport... The cancer of the 3-ball (which they started because they have great shooters) infects everyone and now high school teams take 30-40 3s a game...

As a short guy myself I love shooting the 3 in highschool and thought people falling in love with someone dunking sucked. Yeah who can't dunk if you are 7'0. Also guys that can't shoot FT's are an embarrassment to the game IMO. In highschool I could make 85 out of 100 and never played college = 85%. Curry plays nothing like Harden IMO. Curry doesn't throw his body into players near as much as Harden does to create contact to get a call. He doesn't flop near as much either. Curry creates better off the dribble and just gets open to shoot. Harden gets more calls than Michael Jordan and a lot of them are nonsense, JMO. You have your opinion and I have mine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to watch Steph closer.. He falls on every other shot and he always jumps into the defender. he's not alone but he most certainly does do it And why not? He gets 3 shots if he fools the refs. Dont trust me for a second. Go back and look at any game Im old school. The fundamentals of the game...dribble, pass shoot all conspire to get high percentage shots Not step back, fall away 3s....Shooting is great. But I dont think you are great because you master one aspect if the game.. The women's game is better. They actually try to get to the basket. I am for moving the 3-point line back 3-5 feet. It would bring fundamentals back into the sport If you are Damean Lillard and you walk into a 37-footer to win a game....Thats great basketball?. It wins but I just dont think so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont think so I respect that, I loved the Lakers in the 80's because they played inside out. Magic always believed going to Kareem or Worthy 1st to open everything up for the shooters in the half court game. Scott always burned teams with the 3 though. I see both sides of it. If you have a player like Shaq, he will always be the 1st option over Kobe for a 3 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisaaron1023 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 The Rockets outscored the Warriors by 20 from 3 point range.. but the Warriors had about 20 more shot attempts. Offensive rebounding for the Warriors was huge. Rockets def just stupidly bomb away from 3.. no screens like the warriors set. The just iso and dish from stupid range. They are going to get beat by a team that has better 3 point shooters.. but aren't has much in love with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldunclemark Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'm reading more about the possibilities of the Pacers acquiring Mike Conley. I dismissed it before but its not farfetched. Conley, who is 30 years old..averages 21 points a game and he is an excellent defender. Memphis isn't a playoff team and they want to move him His contract is ridiculous but there's only 2 years left on it.. .at $32 mil and $34 mi Why is he better than Kemba Walker? Offensively, he's not. To get Kemba, we must pay the max: $35 mil for 4 years...the same as Conley but for 2 more years And we're a defensive minded team......Mike Conley is a strong defender.….Plus Conley may actually want to come to Indianapolis …..we all know. Big high school star. Lawrence North. The only knock is We'd probably have to give up our No.1 pick for Conley 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
