D-Will is overrated? D-Will is a product of Sloan's system? D-Will fell off? Oh Word?

Ive noticed Neither him nor Chris have been able to consistently impose their will on The game since the PG Competetion came up. Some of it is injuries(deron's ankles/Paul's knee) yes but there both not the same.

Zeke continues to be under-appreciated. 1 of the best to ever do it.

Your boy gone fishing :heh:

:dwillhuh:

Not saying that per se but either eay he has not played up to his contract, no buts about it. Honest though Heinrich even on the one on one matchups has bottled dude up this series.

Since he's been healthy, he has. It wasn't so much Hinrich as it was the whole Bulls' defense. The Bulls didn't have to spread the floor, because Nets got no shooters - it was near constant stuntin and packing the paint. They made the Nets beat them by letting his teammates shoot.

He was one of a few Nets that showed up in game 7.

Somewhere tropic...
Deron always been overated to me. At first the excuse was he played in the Western Conference. What's the excuse now losing to an undermanned Bulls? :beli:

So do they win with Westbrook there instead of Deron? :mjpls:

No and they wouldn't have won with CP3 either.

Westbrook needs someone to balance out his style and in this case Johnson wasn't the answer. Bulls would've implemented the same gameplan they did on d-will - force his teammates to beat them.

So you are able to distinguish when a great pg doesn't have the right team around him :mjpls: Up until now I thought your philosophy was "insert Westbrook shooting 25 times a game and they'll win."

You thought wrong. I never once said or alluded to that type of thinking. I made it abundantly clear that KD and Westbrook have success together because they're yin and yang of each other - it's not necessarily about the amounts of shots he takes that makes the Thunder successful: it's his aggressiveness, ability to push the tempo and play above the rim (the shots are a result of that type of play). It's basically the contrary of CP3's play, that's why they were the #1 ranked offense this season.

Are you able to distinguish NOW, that with Westbrook out, they don't have 'all those offensive weapons" like you previously stated?
