Broken? I recall Shane Battier raining 3's upon OKC, and Mike Miller finishing them off. No doubt LBJ was far and away the best player, but he had a damn good supporting cast, even when Bosh was hobbled. Let's not do this. He had another wing adding 20+ ppg.

You're talking about a single series and not the entirety of the playoffs.

Battier - 7 PPG on 37% shooting
Miller - 5.2 on 40% shooting


Those are the good to great playoff performers you're calling a great starting cast?

We were playing JOEL ANTHONY AND RONNY TURIAF!

This nikka @Draje showing no mercy in this thread. :scust:

The lengths stans go through to argue against not only stone cold facts but obvious logic is exactly why I want Bron to get his 3rd this season if the Rockets don't make it out the West.

How the fukk were that Thunder team undermanned? :wtf:

Those motherfukkers were the clear favourites with arguably the most stacked team in NBA history yet the fukking Spurs would have been better opponents. :upsetfavre:
You don't think SA would've been the better opponents? They took us to 7 the next season, and smacked us in 5 the season after. I was glad we had to face OKC instead of SA.

We have individual players efficiency stats for the playoffs but do not for team drtg. You go by what the evidence says.

:russ: You're such a fukking hypocrit. I showed you the shooting charts we have, which show Lebron more efficient all over the floor than Kobe. Do you have any opposing evidence? "You go by what the evidence says", right?


True shooting percentage fam and lebrons drop off is vast whether it be this year 2013 2012 2011

Oh, so now we'll lie about true shooting pecentage then? :aicmon: Here are Lebron's playoff numbers for every fukking season:

06: 56%
07: 52%
08: 53%
09: 62%
10: 61%
11: 56%
12: 58%
13: 59%
14: 67%
15: 49%

Career True Shooting % in the playoffs? 57% :whew:

Wanna guess what his career true shooting % in the regular season is? 58%

Kobe, meanwhile, rocks 55% in the regular season, 54% in the playoffs. :mjlol:

Just take the fukking L man. You've been wrong over, and over, and over, and over.

But this is about the thunder compared to other runner ups so what the fukk are you going on about?

Youngest offensive anchors and weakest team defense since 2007 Cavs

You're saying the Thunder were average defensively. They were a top ten defensive team because them and the tenth best team (Spurs) had the same rating.

You said the regular season doesn't matter and then cited the regular season defense as a reason why the Thunder lost.

You said the inexperience was why the Thunder lost but that same inexperienced team ran through one of the most disciplined and mature teams in the league.

No, the Spurs had a better drtg and I don't think they were a title team so the Thunder beating them is whatever.

He doesn't know how to accept an L. Ever watch dragonball z? Remember when Goku gave that ether to Freiza about how he isn't even a challenge anymore and how he's challenged and lost to a superior fighter, yet he kept fighting until his own energy disc cut him in half (self ether is the WORST ether)? Then he threw a little more energy at him and got blown away again? That's what this argument with a kobe stan is

Shane couldn't hit the broad side of a barn until the finals. I think he got more open 3's that season than ever and shot only 34%. Miller was not able to play much. Man was limping up and down the court most of the season. says he was hurt so bad he was surprised we didn't take him behind the barn and shoot him. He did show up big in the closeout game against the pacers and game 5 of the finals though.
That's the beauty of depth and coaching, as much as we like to kill Spo, he still utilized the pace and space offense to a tee. So even with an injured Bosh, we can just plug in players, and put them in positions, and play small. How much is it just LBJ being great, and how much is it just good coaching and solid roleplayers? Again, the numbers LBJ is having to put up now, pale in comparison to what he had to do in Miami. You can say "Welllllll , it's because Kyrie's hobbled and there's no Love out there" but even with a hobbled Wade and Bosh, LBJ's all around stats didn't have to be astronomical in Miami like they were during that Chicago series. Not to mention he actually has a center in Mozgov, and the greatest Offensive rebounder in the game in Thompson.

Notice you didn't post the regular season true shooting percentage :russ:

specufically 2015 2013 2012 2011


This is the second time you did this. Are you unable to read, "regular season"?

I would just call you an incompetent reader, but it's pretty clear that you're just straight lying.

Lebron's career playoff TS% is just 1% lower than his career regular season TS%. WTF do you think cherry-picking 4 seasons has anything to do with anything? You don't think I can find 4 seasons where Kobe's playoff TS% was much lower than his regular season TS%? Why don't you try 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2004 on for size?

Both had a DRTG of 103.2. Post some stats that say differently.

And who cares what you think? They just won 20 games straight and were sweeping through the first 2 rounds of the WESTERN CONFRENCE!

Again, the Thunder went through 3 of the most experienced teams in the league in convincing fashion so why did their inexperience suddenly become a curse?

I posted Kobe's second best shooting chart SINCE 2002, only 0.6% off of his best shooting season EVER.

Let's look at it again:


grant_r_Kobe1213_ShotChart_1152.jpg




Kobe shot 46.3% that season. Now, show me the season he did better. Please, show me.

We go by the evidence we have, right? Wasn't that your quote?

Your relentless commitment to shytting on kobe stans and relying on logic and visual evidence and statistical data is admirable. I'd say I wish you wore the same colors as heatwave, but trail blazer red and black are ok too. quality posting from other fan bases is always a welcome sight.
