By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthas deron williams ever made a shot since utahThe state of his hair is incredible for a millionaire.
He doesn't take a half court shot, while on a fast break, regularly.
He can hit that shot. It's probably in his "range". But… it's not a genuine shot attempt.
Never said he does take THAT shot reguarly. He does take 3s from the hash marks often in half court sets.. Just saying the distance shouldn't matter so much. Maybe don't commit dumb ass fouls?
By blackace Go To PostThat's not what I said, was it?… He drains 30ft 3s normally. Saying a 3 past 30ft shouldn't be awarded FTs is a silly, old man thing to say.Well you said he drains those normally and the shot was a running 30 footer on a fastbreak, so..
But i feel like if you're smart enough to pull that play you should get the free throws
By blackace Go To PostThat's not what I said, was it?… He drains 30ft 3s normally. Saying a 3 past 30ft shouldn't be awarded FTs is a silly, old man thing to say.Ok is "3 free throws should never be awarded on bullshit shots" better?
(Also Curry makes a 3 beyond 28 feet about once in 10 games)
Fouling a guy on the break at halfcourt is not dumbass foul, its smart.
By blackace Go To PostNever said he does take THAT shot reguarly. He does take 3s from the hash marks often in half court sets.. Just saying the distance shouldn't matter so much. Maybe don't commit dumb ass fouls?It's not a dumb foul. On a fast break, you foul the man handling to stop an easy lay up.
Range shouldn't be the single deciding factor. But it should be taken into account.
Well you said he drains those normally and the shot was a running 30 footer on a fastbreak, so..
I think I said he drains 30ft 3s normally. Not running 3s... lol Just in response to a 30ft jumper shouldn't be awarded shots.
By GQman2121 Go To PostDurant is the best overall player in the league right?No. That would still be LeBron. Kawhi is probably ahead of him too.
It's a lot easier to shine though when you're surrounded by elite defense and shooting at almost every position.
By GQman2121 Go To PostDurant is the best overall player in the league right?nah lebron and then leonard.
By unknown Go To Postjr is an idiotYour boy
By GQman2121 Go To PostDurant is the best overall player in the league right?Right now yeah

Which is a fucking crazy clip, and well within his range for a shot.

Fouling to stop the fast break is just as bullshit as flinging a 3 off the foul. So it all works out.
By blackace Go To PostFouling to stop the fast break is just as bullshit as flinging a 3 off the foul. So it all works out.I completely disagree with this.

I mean, in the short finals so far KD is playing like the best all around player in the NBA.. He is really showing court vision and great D... His passing has been really really good.
I completely disagree with this.
Well the NBA doesn't yet.. so all good.
I mean play good transition D and if you foul while the player is driving then so be it... but just to stop the fastbreak is "good" awareness just as shooting off that foul is..
By The Frankman Go To Post3 on Dray? Jeez…
Scott Foster yo
Anytime Cleveland goes down the court on a non-fastbreak and James doesn't touch the ball the players involved should be fined.
By blackace Go To PostWell the NBA doesn't yet.. so all good.I would bet just about any amount of money they agree with me and changes are coming.
(this is more regarding the bullshit Harden fouls when coming off screens, not so much that Curry foul)
By Omzz Go To PostSo lebron is gonna have to play every minuteSee my breakdown of how it would have to go for Cleveland earlier in the thread. Short read:
Cavs:
LeBron and Kyrie to be vintage every game
Love to play similar to the way he did in the Celtics series
Super Tristan Thompson
Bench to hold the line on defense OR offense
GS:
One of Curry/Durant/Klay to be drunk, another to be average
Draymond to miss significant time/get suspended.
Which list looks more realistic?
This is just unfair. You're set if you have one guy better than LeBron, and the Warriors have two guys who are better than LeBron, plus a supporting cast that could make the 8th seed in the East without those two guys.
I would bet just about any amount of money they agree with me and changes are coming.
Yeah, like arguring with refs.. oh wait that didn't stick.
I don't know how they are going to change it. I can see them changing drawing contact like Harden does, but that wasn't the case here.
lebron can play any minute and the dubs would still be favored by 7
next year would be a great season for lebron to pull and MJ and try football

I agree. KD has been amazing in the play offs in general. HIs defense is so good. He's really starting to play in the offense more than just looking for iso's.
I think any one of the 3, LBJ, KD, Kawahi could be the best over all. All 3 are amazing.

rofl at two guys better than LBJ.. honestly they two guys who can be mentioned with LBJ.. but no one is better
By blackace Go To PostYeah, like arguring with refs.. oh wait that didn't stick.These were actually changes on emphasis that they would stress at the beginning of the year, no actual rules were changed ala the "swing through rule".
