We need Russ and Reggie to give the ball to KD any and every time he's in a heat check mode.
If you two have an open layup and KD is open, you pass up the lay up and pass that ball to KD every time, tonight.

It won't be a bad trade if a Chip is won in Cleveland before Love leaves, I don't care how good Wiggins becomes

They're not winning **** this year or anytime soon with the way they've been playing.

I don't think KLove is happy with his role either. Turned that man into a 6'10" Steve Kerr

Russ in terms of
I still contend that rose at his best was more athletic than westbrook. I've just seen russ miss way too many dunks over the years. Russ has those elevator ups where he goes up and up and up. Rose got that trampoline bounce how he just catapults into the sky and kind of hovers in orbit.

Also don't sleep on Lavine and gerry green

Russ in terms of dynamic leaping ability is more athletic than Rose.

Russ can jump the same whether it's off of one leg or two. Rose has always been more of a two footed jumper where his best dunks are off a two foot gather.

In terms of change of speed, Rose has the edge.

Both are incredible athletes.

agreed...
 
By just reading these last 3 pages, you would swear Lebby is 36 years old and nearing the end of his career - and Kevin Love is washed up garbage, and isn't putting up a double-double every night...

..talk about prisoners of the moment :rolleyes
 
Ibaka shooting 41% from 3 this year.

Not good IMO. More incentive for him to stand out there and not work on his inside game. Its crazy how much he stands there waiting for the kick out now.

yeah he should not be shooting outside shots. He won't have many open shots in the playoffs. Plus thunder have enuff shooters already.

:lol That's what I was thinking. I came in to peep a couple of pages and you'd think Lebron is nearing retirement the way some of these dudes are talking. He must really have been THAT good if people are considered him "done, washed, etc." :{
 
Ibaka doing everything you need from a 2014 power forward that's a role player.
But is it really enough from a team that has championship expectations, or from the teams third best player? I do

As much as the same thing happened to Chris Bosh, he still had an elite inside game that they could have utilized if needed. Ibaka doesnt have that, I just cant see them winning it without a post presence of some sort.

excellent. that just shows what putting some hours in the gym can accomplish. wish some of my heat players would get the memo. and ibaka adding consistent 3pt shooting to his repertoire is a good thing. a guy who can fight down low but step out and hit the 3 is ALWAYS a welcome addition. some of you guys in here are trippin.

Huh? He spaces the court by pulling his guy away from the basket, which creates more room for Russ/KD. Especially when Adams/Perk are guys who are strictly around the basket. Shooting 41 percent from 3 is great for his role on that team.

Exactly, what is dude talking about? :lol


Ibaka is going to continue to provide excellent spacing and with Russ/KD both healthy, they need as much space in the lane as possible so him improving his shooting makes them more championship ready rather than less.
 
I'm glad to see Wall coming into his own. There was a time where it was hit or miss. Him and the Wizards are still missing something though, just can't put my finger on it. I like watching them play though.

LeBron's best years are behind him. However, Cleveland might be sucking the life out of him. That and feeling obligated to bring the city a ring. Weight of the world
A lot of players seem to be coming into their own this year, looking like the teenage version of their former selves(Wall/Curry/Harden/Dame/Davis/Thompson/Butler/Beal/Lowry/Ellis/Cousins/Conley/ D.Green/ G.Green)

Not to mention some of the older players that are having rebirth-like seasons too - P.Gasol, M.Gasol, Wade, Bosh, Pierce, and some leftist would probably like to say Kobe as well lol

Honorable mentions are probably Tobias Harris, Derozan, Hayward, and Afflalo with Monroe/Drummond still being 2 years away... well those observations being from the few teams I pay attention to periodically
