2022 OFFICIAL NBA PLAYOFF THREAD - NBA FINALS TIME - GS 4-2 - STEVE GETS #4……ON NT - SUMMER JAM SCREEN RECEIPTS INCOMING……

[Hank Scorpio]

The other thing about Kobe, is because the league was less efficient overall back then

it made his tough shot making even more valuable.


Devin Booker does a much better Tatum impression than Tatum, but he doesn't have Kobe's physical tools.

Tatum as closer physical tools to Kobe, but he doesn't have the footwork, ball handling shotmaking ect

So you saying Booker+Tatum = Kobe?

I actually agree

 

[IATT]

He is a goat. Gfy

[osh kosh bosh]

I think folks here are being a bit too harsh on the Celtics tonight.

They’ve been shooting LIGHTS OUT for the majority of the series. Which is why the series went 2-1 before this game.

Either they keep it up, and hope Steph doesn’t have another all-time performance again or they come back down to Earth and they still out match most of the Warriors anyways.

I mean, look at how the players are talking about this game? They’re too high in this win. I’ve never heard the Warriors speak this way after TYING series, with game 5 next. That’s not the Beast we know.

Celtics know they let this one go. They’re gonna come right back at the Warriors. Klay is playing subpar as well.

I just think they really needed this game.

Robert Williams has really been the difference.
the longer this goes, the more risk he's not going to be healthy.

with 2 out of 3 in GSW, I think the warriors are slight favorite.
despite having a worse overall team.

 

[TrafficLightBully]

Once Tatum start doing the Kobe mamba face then you know he at the point of no return …. Which I’m sure it’s coming soon

 

[HOU$TON]

I would say I can’t even hate on curry anymore, but I definitely will.

Great game from him and Wiggins

 

[elpablo21]

Yeah Dell was definitely trying to stunt on Sonya

 

[witnesskb24]

Tatums skill set:
Turn around fade away jumper
Side step fade away jumper
Driving to the rim with 3 dudes on him and missing

Robert Williams really has made the difference this series. It seems like the best shot for the Celtics was a shot from an offensive rebound.

Also, his presence on defense has completely disrupted the Warriors “Beautiful game” scheme. Warriors are working hard for their points. Celtics are getting far more easier shots.

 

[antidope]

I want Steph to get some calls.

 

[freeze]

And now I can completely **** in the refs without it being looked at like an 'excuse' by you suckas.

Some of the worst reffing I've ever seen in my lifetime.

Legit cheating the warriors to help Boston. Wild. Nasty stuff.

 

[elpablo21]

Damn even Momma Dray letting it be known

 

[Blue Mamba]

That’s my cousin

 

[D StaXX]

Damn even Momma Dray letting it be known

This is CRAZY.

It's like they decided to to date each other's exs. They out here swappin'

 

[T0INE]

Da Rattlesnake struck the Celtics tonight like

 

[dman14]

steph about to raise that chip once they get back to bean town in gm 6
#4 on the way

 

[chao7]

Damn even Momma Dray letting it be known

Can't wait to hear about this on the podcast

 

[Hank Scorpio]

I want Steph to get some calls.

I’m glad someone mentioned this. I hate to use the refs as an excuse for games, but the foul calling for the Celtics has been evidently favorable.

They’re absolutely allowing Boston to beat up on guys in the paint. They’re allowing Steph to get absolutely murderer as well.

 

[raider5]

Damn even Momma Dray letting it be known

podcast gonna need to be live streamed with mama Dray testing her son’s clone

 

[osh kosh bosh]

I've made this comparison before

But Tatum is more of a John Havlichek type great player.

he's very good at lot's of different things.
and that adds up to him being great.

but he's not a truly great offensive player.

 

[shotsrangout]

Damn even Momma Dray letting it be known

sometimes its ok not to tweet

 

[703 hwy]

Can we simulate the rest of the series

 

[MIKE LOWERY]

It’s his first time on the big stage.

If GS wins, a large part of it will be due to experience.

Has nothing to do with experience. This is him. His shot selection and the way he plays. Its completely head scratching at times.

The other thing about Kobe, is because the league was less efficient overall back then

it made his tough shot making even more valuable.


Devin Booker does a much better Tatum impression than Tatum, but he doesn't have Kobe's physical tools.

Tatum as closer physical tools to Kobe, but he doesn't have the footwork, ball handling shotmaking ect

And this is the problem. Forget Kobe. You can't be 6'8" - 6'9" 225+ and have an athleticism advantage on 95% of the people you play on a nightly basis and take all these damn shots outside the paint. Then, you make those shots more difficult trying to emulate someone/something you're simply not.

Kobe (Booker too) had/has to play like this because they aren't as big/gifted physically. The way Tatum plays, he sells himself short everytime trying to do this goofy ****.
