No breh, dont you see Kyrie is overrated and not worth the money because the Warriors will definitely expose him on D like they did these past Finals? Im his biggest fan though.

And also what are you talking about hide Curry?? Surely you jest for he is a very good defender, easily better than my nemesis Chris Paul, who definitely fukked my bytch. Here check out these awesome Coach Nick videos, he agrees with me! (or rather I with him)

You're not gonna get any cosign from Malta on this corny, straw man post.

The cosign of you trying to make a [corny] joke out of my posts. Don't play dumb.

All you ever do is set up strawmen to knock over, because all you're concerned with is pushing your silly ass agendas.

Oh, thx for the clarification

Your posts are generally jokes as is. These are your very own statements and views, some of which you wrote like an hour ago to me. Then Wilt comes in and you switch up quick, embarrassed of your own arguments and bowing your head.

"Sir, I'd like to respectfully request permission to invoke the Injury and Suspension Clause, if it so pleases you"

Nope, they're views manipulated by you and taken out of context to push your agenda.

What the fukk are you even talking about? I talk to him like I do any other reasonable poster on this board. There you go LYING again.

Without Bron:

Russ $5
Bradley $1
George $4
Crowder $1
Towns $4

With Bron:

Kyrie $1
Bradley $1
Middleton $2
LeBron $7
Adams $1

Well, this is what I was going to put, by far the best one of the bunch because of the size & spacing all in one, plus you can keep the devastating Kyrie/LeBron screen.

Any team that beats the Warriors will be one where they can't hide Curry.

That team would get ran off the floor. KP is going to be at a disadvantage with the death lineup. Also, not enough half court scoring.

 

[Poitier]

Giannis $3
Bradley$1
Middleton $2
Towns $4
Davis $5

would also be amazing.

Need an ISO creator.

Lillard-$4
McCollum-$2
George-$4
Giannis-$3
Gobert-$2

This is a good team but The Splash Brothers would get off against it.

i) Their high offensive rating is mostly down to the fact the Warriors were without Draymond and Bogut went down (their two most important frontcourt defensive players).

The Cavs highest offensive rating was game 3, when Draymond and Bogut present, from that game on the Warriors were incapable of stopping their primitive "Go at Curry" offense. Even in game 4 in which they won it wasn't because their defense stepped up, it was because they got hot from 3.

ii) The Cavs took advantage of that because Draymond wasn't there to provide help defense. The Cavs won't have the same degree of success when the Warriors run a Curry/Klay/Iggy/Durant/Draymond lineup. Not to mention it's going to be reliant upon LeBron's jumpshot being on for an entire series. Half the reason the Cavs got away with offensive droughts or didn't make the most of their runs was because Barnes' shot was completely off and both Curry and Klay didn't play up to their capabilities. If Curry and Klay play like they did against the Thunder in those last three games (against a better defense than what the Cavs showed) with the combination of Durant than this 'target Curry' offensive advantage won't mean much in the grand scheme of things.

They won 1 game without Draymond being there, and 3 with him present. Klay and Curry didn't play up to their capabilities because the Cavs did an excellent job on them, you can't just chalk it up to them being off when Klay had a similar series the year before, and this year Curry looked exhausted because the Cavs were going at him everytime down the floor.

The Warriors were also up 3-1 when they had their full complement of players.

I agree somewhat with this, except that there's teams listed in this thread that are better at carrying this out - better 3-pt shooting, more defensive versatility and rebounding impact. Don't get me wrong that team is good, but most certainly not the best for spacing and size.

They lost 3 games with Dray

I like that team the best, it has the two players who gave the Warriors absolute nightmares, combined with better players in the frontcourt and an all-world defender at the 2.

And you have to take into account that LeBron potentially won't be as good next year too.

I'll believe that when I see it, he a Cyborg until I get some kind of news that he isn't
