  • He can't handle the ball though. The turnovers have been a problem for months. It's just being highlighted on a bigger stage. His handle isn't tight. He often gets the ball poked or swiped away. That's not when he's throwing lazy passes.
  • The set plays they do have stink. The screen and roll to Drummond/Claxton develops too slow and they crowd the area. Abandon it.
So what's the solution?

I hope people realize KD was never the reason why GS won those 2 titles. Hell the warriors coulda just ran it back and won the 2 titles regardless or at least win 1 title.

I told yall if the Nets win the chip this year it's on the back of Kyrie and NOT KD.

KD NOT top 15 all time and NOT ahead of steph in GOAT debate from now on.
:mjlol:

2 finals mvps indicate otherwise. You dudes sounds like trump supporters with this nonsense.

Ultimately, this is what I've been saying for awhile


KD is an iso guy first.

When he has the ball in his hand , you don't have to worry about the threat of the pass like you do with LeBron. So he's predictable.

When the ball is not in his hand, he's not moving like Curry. So he's not helping the offense generate good shots like Curry (which is why Curry has always led some of the most explosive offenses ever, while KD, the supposed best scorer ever, hasn't).

When the shot aint falling, he's more likely to check out.

And his bag is low-key limited. He has the same predictable pull up hesitant jumper moves, and 1 cross over, and a generic turnaround fadeway.


This is why I've said KD NEEDS a point guard like Steph. KD is a fun scorer, but he can't win as the undisputed best player on your team.
Quit discussing basketball

:hhh:

Wtf is this. He has Kyrie.

Ever since Bron used to get let down by subpar supporting casts people have played telephone and misused the ‘no help’ narrative. It really doesn’t apply here. Steph curry was leading a team of G leaguers before Klay came back. Ja led a bunch of dudes barely in their 20s to a 2 seed and his co-“star” is dating Bruce Jenner.

Every sentence is wrong, or at minimum debatable :wow:

1. He was the main reason, or at minimum co-main
2. They lose to Cavs in ‘17, and probably the Rockets in ‘18 without KD
3. KD will need to lead them to a title, Kyrie is not that guy.
4. Debatable.

Yeah its weird seeing all the Simmons comments. Have yall seen Simmons against the Celtics? They're even better on defense this year. He will make them worse especially considering unfamililarity with teammates and vice versa. It takes a while to get use to playing with a guard whose man will just leave him disrespectfully.
