Barnes is about that life

 

[iamjusayn]

Warriors are scrappy! I can respect it and I respect steph for shaking off the jitters first game. Wasn't MJ suppose to get Barnes in the draft last year? Wonder what happened with that.

Barnes is about that life

 

[hypebeast5]

Regardless who wins this game is amazing

 

[black migo]

For durant to be the best shooter/scorer in the league, he doesn't take anywhere near the amount of shots he should because westbrook feels the need to be involved.

We shall see what happens. This is going to prove whether or not kd is ready to be #1.

Hes gonna see all kinds of double teams, someone else gonna have to put up 20+

How does curry do a finge roll floater smh

Westbrook "feels the need to be involved" because he's the point guard and 2nd best player out there

And Durant very much values efficiency and shot selection

Durant has hired his own analytics expert. He tailors workouts to remedy numerical imbalances. He harps on efficiency more than a Prius dealer. To Durant, basketball is an orchard, and every shot an apple. “Let’s say you’ve got 40 apples on your tree,” Durant explains. “I could eat about 30 of them, but I’ve begun limiting myself to 15 or 16. Let’s take the wide-open three and the post-up at the nail. Those are good apples. Let’s throw out the pull-up three in transition and the step-back fadeaway. Those are rotten apples. The three at the top of the circle — that’s an in-between apple. We only want the very best on the tree.”

With a pass first guard, he would likely see more of those efficient shots, but it's a conscious decision he's making.

If the nuggets make a deep run without gallo do they rudy gay him

That would suggest the Nuggets are far better without an overrated and overpaid wing.

My boy Klay Thompson lookin' real shaky tonight, he's not locked in.

He was staring right at the ball and his feet on that fast break while dribbling

 

[noblekane]

Sure thing bro, you're right. Just like you being right about me joining yesterday. Again, shut that mouth. While they're at it, they should throw in an aptitude test... Now continue your mindless banter and move it along.

Oh your not new? My bad the way you talked it was like you didnt know what you were talking about. By the way....

I don't believe you actually have an opinion here.

I think you're just saying the opposite, cuz that's something you like to do.

I'm saying if he's comparing Gallo to Rudy Gay, then he must mean he's overrated and overpaid.... like Rudy is.
