snyder should win
lost key players from the previous roster
loses defensive anchor for part of the season
getting the 3rd seed with ricky rubio running point and far less talent than other coaches ( *cough thibs * cough)
wasnt gifted players who were bought out down the stretch

 

[chrisftdot]

this was 100% on point

for the gs fans and russ haters how do you reconcile Klay going into a meaningless 4th quarter to secure his 20ppg? antidope/lovetohate

This.
And what about when stars like Lebron and KD run the clock out at the end of the quarter instead of heaving up threes; when they're inbounding the ball with a couple seconds left in the quarter.

How the Jazz playing Luther Vandross and Pat Benatar for in game music?

I've been watching them a lot lately, recently they've played dr dre, snoop and I believe YG. Had me shook tbh

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Brown had a rough start to the year but his adjustments post allstar break is commendable. That being said, Utah did have rough patches as well and they've turned it around.

I'd personally choose Stotts, Stevens, and Casey over them.

Casey for taking the same core team and a bunch of unproven/ unknown young pieces to #1 in the East while re-inventing the way they play.
Stevens for securing #2 while dealing with all the injury
Stotts for taking an underwhelming team to achieve what they have.

Actually I use the fact that stotts and Casey have had the same core against them. This should be a natural progression. Of course they are both over achieving a bit but when it comes down to it and we are splitting hairs give me any of stevens, Snyder, nate McMillan, and even dantoni

It's intellectually dishonest to equate not taking full court 3s with the system that has been created in OKC.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

That's weak MDA saying if they don't win a ring it's not a disappointment.

What else are y'all for?

 

[antidope]

Memba when Russ passed to Adams under the basket and Adams passed to someone else and Russ had a mini tantrum? I memba.
Bruh stay acting like he don't care about the stats but out here getting custom shirts made with his numbers on them. It can't be one way and the other Russ.

 

[wavycrocket]

Rare time where one of the head barbers at the barbershop make sense

 

[Based Jesus]

I memba.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Now ya'll believing SAS


This thread be all over the place

 

[LebronHasMoreFinalsMVPs]

Bucks are 100% healthy

 

[yobyellav]

all for Russ getting 17 boards tonight. hope the wolves get in. Wouldn’t mind seeing KAT and jimmy b for at least 4 more.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

I don't even know why yall messing with buc. Brett brown can be the worst ******* good damn ******** *** dumb **** worthless piece of **** coach that should've been fired a long time ago as well as coach of the year. Both things can be true

That's weak MDA saying if they don't win a ring it's not a disappointment.

What else are y'all for?

It's not about whether you win or lose. It's about how hard you try

He thinks you get a regular season championship like when you win your conference in college. He wildin for that.

Or he’s expecting to get out coached early and laying the ground work for how successful the season was.

Kuz

Wouldn't think Dame was higher than Steph.

 

[pums]

Probably due to the difference on the amount of 3s teams attempt over the year.

Trae young bout to set the rookie record for attempts next year

 

[xxpizzo]

made 186 out of 548 attempts

also had the green light to just shoot cause ya know who else gonna take them lol

 

[blakep267]

I thought Brett Brown deaerved COY until I read what sixers fans thought about him. Sounds like the won in spite of Brett Brown this season.

Brett brown just made stupid moves so much that it just started to work itself out beautifully.

Was this that mini tantrum that KD and Curry were laughing about on the bench while losing by almost 20?

 

[BIG FISH]

Jimmy or Derozan?

 

[100027]

Seems to me a better example of why fans don't know **** about coaching

 

[xxpizzo]

if you didnt follow sixers in beginning of season you wouldn't know how bad Brett brown was with rotations

it was the reason why we had so many blown leads. He really got better as the season progressed. numbers dont lie

 

[Based Jesus]

That wasn't even the one I was thinking of but it says a lot that there are multiple moments like this.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Jimmy or Derozan?

Want to see how the meniscus effects jimmy going forward
