I honestly think if Brad Stevens had a talented roster, let alone star players, he would be looked at as one of the best coaches in the NBA.

That was a GREAT hire for Boston.
While our guy was the biggest reason we lost in 2011, nearly cost us the conference finals in 2012, tried to cost us the 2013 series with his late substitutions in game 6, and was getting waxed by rookie coaches last year. He cost us at least 9 games this year on his rotations and inability to coach with a lead. He's coached us for 7 years now and we still have no offensive sets. Imagine what a tactician like Stevens could do with the roster this guy had.

the coach blaming is a bit ridiculous in here

You must have never seen the heat play...

He is a horrible coach...

Only Whitman and Fisher...and maybe Brooks...are worse on a night to night basis...

Dude been riding Wade and Lebron his entire career...

Dude got blasted in the finals and never made ONE adjustment the entire series until the last game...

And what was the adjustment...

To play Beasely :yeah ok:

There is a reason he went from being mentioned as a top coach when Bron was there to not mentioned at all when Bron left...

To the nikkas who fantasize about Wade's dikk at night negging me :umad:

Groupies defending this fraud when Anthony "Unibrow" Davis leads his team to the West play-offs in a conference that's 10x more skilled :mjlol: And his teammates are inferior to Wade's.

Lmao at the LeBron video,Durant is a all-time great scorer.He's going to score no matter what.

,Penny hardaway was dropping 38 & 39 pt games on Pippen & Jordan.does that mean Jordan and Pippen were not great defenders ? D.Wilkins was dropping 30 - 40 pts on Jordan and pippen,again,does that mean Jordan and pippen were not great defenders ? Jordan drop 45 pts on Payton,does that mean payton was not a great defender ?

Great players are going to score no matter what

Penny 39 pts (17-25 fg) vs Pippen



Penny 38 pts(15-21 fg) vs Pippen and Jordan



Penny shot nearly 70% fg in those 2 games combined.Does that mean Scottie and Micheal are shytty defenders ?


Those players didn't consistently drop those numbers against Pippen and Jordan. You postin' vids like it's one game. The context is this:

Lj is one of the worst defenders in the league who just roams around for blocks and steals because he's too undisciplined to stay in front of his man.

Lebron is not a good defender. He can play defense for two to three minutes, but not 48 minutes.

http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/06/19/serge-ibaka-lebron-is-not-a-good-defender/

The tape shows Durant is hardly struggling in one-on-one confrontations with James. In fact, James has not been able to stay in front of Durant off the dribble and Durant has also been able to shoot with relative ease because James tends to play one-on-one defense with his hands low.

http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/45990/durant-scoring-well-against-james

Od Battier (who also weighed a lot less than Lj) got all of Lj's defensive assignments.

None of that can be said about Jordan and Pippen.

Then he goes and admits he can't guard KD.

Durant doesn't shoot well against 'Melo. He only gets his points if he gets to the line.

Durant doesn't "get his" against Tony Allen.

Lj won't even shoot the ball if 'Melo is guarding him.

Lj doesn't get his against Paul George, 'Melo, Jimmy Butler, Tayshaun Prince, and not even CP3. There are several other defenders I can name.

I see some of you calling james overrated,or claiming that lebron is a garbage derfender.But whats the point of your argument.Lebron is still a better defender than Durant,curry,harden and westbrook.Don't act like lebron wasn't chasing around T.Parker in last years nba finals,it certainly wasn't D.Wade.

Parker was injured. Lj is much taller than Tony and was just as fast. In the 4th quarter in the last 2 Finals, Parker was hitting a boat-load of shots in his face in the 3rd and 4th quarters, despite being shorter than his "defender" and injured. Besides that, when Tony got by Lj, the defense collapsed on him.

Dumb broad still thinks Melo is better than Bron :mjlol:

And you're resorting to personal attacks because you're in love with another man. :francis:

Worse still, is the fact that it's another man that you don't even know, doesn't know you exist, and would likely never cape for you. You must have grown up without a father figure?

Wade and Dragic have started 20games together and their still not as good as a Celtic team that was trying to tank by trading away their best players

the celtics were trying to tank, and they gutted their team, and they are still gonna make the playoffs :mjlol:

even curious george might get in the playoffs with the pacers miraculously.

If you 2 understood tanking, you would know that you can't fail at it. :wow:
