Analytics is a term that dumb jocks don't fully understand and use to make fun of the stat nerds who never laced dem up.

I used to wonder if Kawhi’a game would translate well once he started to age. Specifically if his shot would go to ****, but with how he’s mastered his mid range shot and his shot already being flat as is, it’s close to unstoppable once he gets to his spots on the court

tbh, play bron teams man-to-man. Doubling him only helps him. Play m2m and taking away with passing options. Let him have 50 if he wants. But when dealing with a viable threat, you have to take away something. His greatest talent is his passing. So take it away. Make him a scorer. A volume scorer. He'll wear down quicker and his percentages will drop. Can't allow bron to have free range in the half court. Even if he kills the switch, he's not scoring 70pts. If dudes would've stayed home on avery bradley, he wouldn't have had a career night. Stay home, see what happens. Next game they need to experiment, so they have a baseline of attack come WCF.

In theory they have the personnel but he went straight through Morris twice at the end of the game too.Yup. Actually, the first two meetings, thr clips did a good job of this. And yesterday, they had some success. But the breakdowns come from a lack of chemistry and experience. They have the bodies and personel to do it. Doc also gotta be smarter.
Picking apart a Tag and recover is like ABC to Bron. Flattening him out and playing him straight up with teamwork/communication is the way to go.
Back line and corner communication too.
Also, no one is talking about the clips lack of rim protection. I believe they were able to run KCP off the 3pt line twice but gave up layups.
That's the difference between the two teams defensively.

It would’ve been if they had won.
game 6 vs Boston will always hold the throne to me.

hes gotta stop shooting so many 3's
hes shooting a career low 46% from the field
needs more load management
and he may end up playing less games than he did last season

I didn’t know that. His 3 ball seems like money whenever he launches it
But no they don’t need any more load management. They need to develop more chemistry. It’s obvious they need more chemistry on the offensive side because it’s just a lot of iso ball

Definitely. I got his 07 explosion against detroit at 1 than game 6 vs boston at 2. Games 5 and 6 from 16 finals gotta be up there too

Games can still be televised my G, stadiums will have to eat losses. That said this isn't at pandemic levels yet so I wouldn't get too worried.
Fan-less games are the norm at sporting events (i.e. certain Olympic events, etc...).

I don't think anyone is willing to say that Giannis has been anything short of spectacular.
I also think it would be foolish to pretend like Lebron has somehow not been AT LEAST as good as Giannis has been ALL YEAR LONG.
I'm also not willing to ignore the fact that the level of competition is lower in the east than it is in the West on a night to night basis. Giannis is playing weaker teams more frequently and that's really the bottom line.
If Giannis ever adds range to his game, its over for everybody else. Once Bron added a respectable 3 ball that defenders couldn't sag off on, it was pretty much a wrap on teams thinking they could somewhat contain him.

but you can’t have games if players don’t play
bron already said he wouldn’t play. I’d imagine he’s far from the only one

And I thought it was unfair to Giannis that people are giving LeBron bonus points for being old...yeesh...

Man I went to target and it was the opposite haha every soap and hand sanitizer was sold out lol
and I haven’t seen anything regarding fan decline but I think fanless games is going to happen and that won’t go over well at all with players

I'm all for an empty arena game if it means we don't get Chris Webber and Reggie Miller as part of the package.

What a garbage take, Kobe's death and the Hong Kong democracy movement should not even be included in ANY narrative.
