What about Curry?Both fell from top 10 to not mentioned at all, far as Im concerned.
This narrative that Westbrook and Durant should have passed to their amazing role playersNo doubt. Which is why you can't use the hero ball excuse for OKC losing - Warriors won with that shyt. It's just Curry made his shots and KD and Westbrook didn't.![]()

LeBron would literally commit a pre meditated homicide against Russ... Yall think he hated Chalmers?The fukked up thing is, they have a championship caliber supporting cast
Substitute KD with Lebron, and OKC wins in 5

There lies the problem, damnned if u damnned if u dontThey moved the ball all game. Their role players just couldn't hit their good looks.
Adams 4-11
Roberson 2-11
Ibaka 5-11
Waiters 2-9
:colehuh:yup. Fakest superstars in a minute.
Harden >>> Both of these nikkas.
Right. Not sure what breh is talking about. The ball movement was, for the most part, similar to that of the blowout games. That's the problem you have highlighted there: players who were hitting shots, like Roberson, suddenly weren't such is the game of basketball.They moved the ball all game. Their role players just couldn't hit their good looks.
Adams 4-11
Roberson 2-11
Ibaka 5-11
Waiters 2-9
When they aren't hitting shots, it turns into the KD and Westbrook show and it should be apparent by now that they can't win anything playing hero ball.actually, they overachieved. warriors were 73-9, spurs were 67-15. they beat spurs, and almost took down the greatest team in the history of the league.
just need an upgrade over roberson, and bring roberson off the bench. Waiters not enough. Billy D is a great coach. He got the max out his team, but OKC will be ok.

Westbrook and Durant played above and beyond what they should have done . In the end only having 6 rotational players having to play 45+ minutes with no rest is what killed us. Need to trade Kanter asap for a backup pg and wing depth. I love where we are at but Goldenstate being able to play thir starters 38-40 mpg while ours had to fight through damn near 48 is the game.
Trade Kanter for teague or someone. A wing or pg is what we need .
The coli is pretty hyperbolic though so I'm sure taking a 73 win team to 7 with 6 rotational options is a fail
Forever they aren't the problem depth is. You can't expect your stars to play so many minutes without continued rest. Warriors were able to rest step the and klay for long periods of time together . If we sit Russ and kd it's a wrap. With Roberson and Adams improving you make marginal improvements with Kanter 17mm should gain you solid above replacement level playersLet's say the those trades happen... how many more seasons you give KD and Russ together if they can't win it all? Or how many more seasons should they stay together?
