Re-read his post. He wast talking about how the games are called.

HE WAS JUST TRYING TO SOUND SMART
WITH A DATED CLICHE LINE.

THERES NO ADVANCED DEFENSIVE SCHEMES
COME PLAYOFF TIME.
THE DIFFERENCE WAS WHAT THE REFS
ALLOWED DEFENDERS TO GET AWAY WITH.

TEAMS ROUTINELY SCORED 120-130 PTS IN LAST YRS PLAYOFFS.
:devil:
:evil:

What does what you just said have to do with what he said?
it's easier to score when defense is constrained in the current era

it's easier because of off the floor shyte not because slugg is colder than his opponents

let defenders clamp down for real he's getting bullied

:mjpls:

does my opinion offend you¿

time to make dunks worth 3 points.

game need to evolve. :mjgrin:
I've been saying this for years, the league needs to adopt North Korean rules:

- Slam dunks are worth three points (up from two) :myman:

- Field goals in the final three minutes of the game are worth eight points (up from two) (get that intentional foul fukk shyt outta here pleighboi :birdman: )

- Three-pointers are worth four if the ball doesn't touch the rim
:ohlawd:

- Point deducted for missed free throws :lupe:

Why do you think defense was removed from the NBA?

:mjpls:

So guys like Cuban can do what he's doing.

You sort of right about staying the same but Jordan Hakeem, Shaq, Duncan, Dirk, Kyrie, Durant, Wade numbers all got better in playoffs. Plenty more players but you get the point.
Lebron numbers goo up

It only looks that way if you ignore that they're playing more minutes in the playoffs. Their per-36 scoring numbers and their FG% go down or stay the same:

MJ per-36 in regular season for Chicago: 29.4ppg on 50.5% shooting
MJ per-36 in playoffs for Chicago: 28.8ppg on 48.7% shooting

Shaq per-36 in regular season: 24.6ppg on 58.2% shooting
Shaq per-36 in playoffs: 23.3ppg on 56.3% shooting

Duncan per-36 in regular season: 20.1ppg on 50.1% shooting
Duncan per-36 in playoffs: 20.6ppg on 50.1% shooting

Dirk per-36 in regular season: 22.2ppg on 47.2% shooting
Dirk per-36 in playoffs: 22.4ppg on 46.2% shooting

Wade per-36 in regular season: 23.3ppg on 48.1% shooting
Wade per-36 in playoffs: 21.3ppg on 47.4% shooting

Lebron per-36 in regular season: 25.3ppg on 50.3% shooting
Lebron per-36 in playoffs: 24.8ppg on 49.1% shooting

Durant per-36 in regular season: 26.4ppg on 49.1% shooting
Durant per-36 in playoffs: 25.5ppg on 47.1% shooting

Kyrie per-36 in regular season: 23.6ppg on 46.5% shooting
Kyrie per-36 in playoffs: 23.7ppg on 46.5% shooting


All of those guys saw their per-36 scoring numbers drop in the playoffs except for Duncan, Dirk, and Kyrie, and those three only increased by a fraction of a point. And ALL of those players saw their fg% drop or stay the same in the playoffs.


I only found one star whose numbers actually went up in the playoffs:

Hakeem per-36 in regular season for Houston: 22.3ppg on 51.3% shooting
Hakeem per-36 in the playoffs for Houstong: 23.5ppg on 52.8% shooting

That's a pretty impressive jump.
