Arguably he best point guard and small forward in both conferences going head to head and both healthy

Also I guess y'all ignoring that kyrie isn't and doesn't want to guard curry just like how curt isn't guarding ky and that neither play good defense but it's cool keep tryin to make kyrie out to be some decent defender

Kd can guard bron and bron can't guard kd that's he thing people can't wrap their mind behind

Lebron expelled so much energy worrying about Durant he couldn't even get all the way up on his 2nd half dunks the nikka looked his age for once in his life

Klay is the only dude is respect on the Warriors. God willing, he'll come to Houston once his contract expires..

James Harden aka Tracy Mcgrady 2.0 aka Bet Mvp ain't going for that:russ::lolbron::mjlol:
Klay ain't going nowhere..
He's on a championship team that could win multiple, why in da hell would he go to a pretender team..
The Rockets have one of the most explosive young talents in M. Harrold and wouldn't even play him:francis::mjgrin:
Klay chillin and getting it done with defensive(even though I want Killa Klay game 6 to bury the CAVS) but he's not leaving unless something traumatic/dramatic happens.

Ya know....

What's funny is that the Warriors doubling Kyrie on the perimeter to get the ball out of his hands.

And they're trying to bait lebron into taking jumpers on sagged off single coverage.

Kinda makes you think who the real threat is on the Cavs offense

If 50% of Lebron's FG attempts are outside the paint the Cavs will get swept. Absolutely the right idea forcing Lebron to take perimeter shots and forcing Lebron to take the majority of the shots. All of this would be counterproductive against a Kobe/MJ, but with Lebron since he can't really shoot that well or handle the pressure this works with great efficacy :mjgrin: All those fast breaks generated by Lebron's bricks :whew:

This righht here is total nonsense.

1.GS is rotating 4 defenders on Lebron to tire him out(Durant,Green,Iggy,Thompson)

2.Act like there isn't excessive contact when Lebron drives the basketball.

3..Act Like Lebron doesn't have to be in help mode to cover for the poor defense of Love/Irving/Korver....Durant can just focus on his man and his man only.

4.Durant has been afforded the luxury of being able to just stand at the 3pt line while Curry and Green facilitate the offense.Durant got so many open dunks and 3's because Cleveland was worried about Curry/Thompson

5.Act like Lebron didn't have 19p/11r/4a at halftime.Most of that scored on Durant

6.Lebron played 41 of the first 43 minutes..Durant played.35 of the first 43 minutes.Durant got 8 minutes of rest(two 4 minute rest breaks),Lebron only got a 2 minute rest in the first half.More luxurys for Durant......KD could never sit for 8 minutes of a finals game if he played for OKC.

Durant can rest while Green,Iggy and Thompson take their shot at Lebron.

Fact:No all-time great offensive player can be stopped ....Durant will continue to get his 28-35..Lebron will continue to get his 28-35... cleveland must limit their turnovers,and the role players must step up.

I see you idiots never learn y'all lesson.Talking about Durant can stop Lebron.LBJ put up 28/15/8 and sat the last 5 minutes of the game....Lets see what happens in game 2.

Looks like we have a Curry stan as one of the mods. How you gon call this post low quality posting? This is the god honest truth and I got facts to back me up.

KD, Klay, and Draymond are all 2-way players. Curry on the other hand is a liability defensively who has to get hid on the worst perimeter scorer. Klay should be guarding 2s but because Curry is so terrible as a defender he always has to cross-match with the opposing teams 1s. Put Klay and Draymond in any era under any system and they can thrive. Curry can only work on a 3-point shooting team like Golden State in this era. And he can only succeed with having a guy like Klay taking up all the tough defensive matchups against the elite PGs in this league. Steph Curry is a gimmick player who hides from his defensive responsibilities.

There is nothing "low quality" about my post. Its the TRUTH.

So was magic a gimmic player also

On a forum full of trash opinions, this might be the worse one I've ever seen. :hhh:
It's up there with blaming Shaq for the 2004 finals and suggesting that we should be amazed Kobe was able to lead the 2009-10 lakers to the title with the supporting cast and coaching staff he had while at the same time suggesting we should hold it against Wade for not leading the Heat to a title that year with the supporting cast and coaching staff he had :martin:
