media wants to crown Luka so bad

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

Pierce was a better defender and didn't take stupid bad shots.

Pierce shot selection wasnt very good early in his career

Luka is great, yall better get used to it

 

[The God Poster]

He's gonna fall off abruptly just like Harden. His physical conditioning isn't getting any better and the older he gets the more of an issue that will become.

It’s weird because I feel like people are purposely ignoring this point. Harden is recent & the majority memory isn’t that damn short

But I guess because Kidd said he is pivoting toward Bron his condition will get 100x better lol

Trae stans are so desperate for him to be included

No one rates those fraud playoff wins last year. Those series were about Randle and Simmons embarassing themselves

After the foul baiting was removed, Trae spent the whole season being exposed as a fraud himself

Finished 9th with a stacked team, and then had arguably the most embarassing series for a young "star" ever

No one is ever going anywhere with the worst defensive player ever, turnover machine, and wildly inefficient player as their lead guy

Sometimes you just gotta ignore the trolls

Same thing trae young did last season

only difference is, luka is playing much better competition

that said, They're acting like Steph isnt the best player in that series

 

[FaTaL]

He needs to improve his fitness

I hope the Warriors sweep the Mavs. They're talking bout this dude like he's a GOD.

Dude had 43 and it still didn’t matter

Brunson had 30

Mavs knocked down 21 thee pointers and still lost

Brunson had 30

He had all his supporting cast contribute and step up
Main reason they lost is because the mavs have no defense and get punished for it
No rim protection
No help on screens
Luka giving up on plays defensively

This was a game they should have won but lost due to bad coaching and bad D

How many of y’all had the Hawks advancing to the ECF last season??

Nobody but Hawks fans had them beating the Knicks. Not even Hawks fans had them beating a healthy Philly squad & they took 2 from Milwaukee. I don’t wanna hear about competition when nikkas thought they’d get swept in each series last season

I never thought they’d get swept by any team. Randle is a fraud, we can agree on that. Simmons is the biggest bytch in the league, and Doc is the most overrated coach. It is what it is. Luka’s competition is clearly better than what Trae went thru

4 more FTA attempts too, more if you take away the intentional fouls they had vs the Warriors at the end.

They also got Draymond in foul trouble and fouled out.

Nearly did everything you could have done on a basketball court to win that game. 9/10 that'd be enough to put most teams away.

What it comes down to though: if every team in the league were to play at their peak, the Warriors are still head and shoulders the league's best team.
