It's pretty simple to me the strategy Lakers should be using on defense. Only double Harden when Russ is on the floor and try to do it from the middle of the floor as it's easier to recover and scramble. I'd rather him just get layups and try to make him finish over length every time than just conceding wide open 3s. Don't need to double anybody else. Hell they were randomly doubling EG and even Russ once that led to wide open 3s. Seriously doubt they'll be as hot as they were on the 3rd again.

I been said that Westbrook chose the wrong sport. Basketball isn’t for him.

I think it’s cause those big men also had the natural power game that AD doesn’t have. But AD also doesn’t need that to be successful. Also, it doesn’t help most of the people on tv still have such a dinosaur outlook thinking guys need to camp out two feet from the rim. The game just isn’t like that anymore.

This is the second time I've read this in two days. Y'all seem to forget the difference in pay structure and pay overall between the two sports. Not to mention the health risks
Getting paid a fraction of what he's been paid in the NBA + sustaining life altering CTE/ other injuries<<<<<<<< NBA
Not to mention the man did get an MVP and has been All NBA for the majority of his career

Did AD have a bad game or something?
AD is averaging 30 & 10 on 59/42 thus far in the playoffs I think he’s doing quite okay for a guy with no skill

On top of what

said, Westbrook turned a late offer from UCLA only because Farmar left into $350Ms.
he won’t ever be my MVP, but y’all wilding.
it’ll be interesting to see if he adjusts after this season. It’s gotta be embarrassing and he’s a prideful dude

Football player that knows how to dribble. There’s no way you play this many years in the NBA and still don’t know wtf you’re doing. He will never adjust.
He was gifted with being the most athletic human with a basketball ever thats for sure.

Football in hindsight is the wrong sport to choose if you can play MLB or NBA. The shelf life of being an NFL player is sad as hell and if you just so happen to get "lucky" enough to last, that only puts your quality of life after football at more risk

Dudes love to take it too far with the Brodie takes. He's is playing like straight garbage right now, no denying it, but have some damn perspective.

The GSW have disillusioned the entire league except the Lakers, whose model of winning championships remains the same as it has always been - a dominant ballhandler/scorer and a dominant big. All these small ball clubs trying to imitate the Warriors style of relying on 3s to win only works if you have defense, somethingvthe Rockets are still learning to play with the acquisition of Covington.
Hou has a problem and his name is Anthony Mfk'n Davis
