Series Thread: 2) Cleveland Cavaliers vs 7) Indiana Pacers

[LAD]

Definitely true about the FT's and D, speaking of FT's, Kawhi had 37 points in game and was 19/19 from the FT line lmfao

I remember we had discussions on these boards about Kawhi when he was coming off the bench for SA. We debated on whether or not he'd be a franchise player. Some of us thought he would- others not so much.

I've been on board ever since the 12-13 finals when he put up a +29 against Miami

The NBA gets out of hand sometimes with the friendly rigged lol

I saw some posts yesterday in the MLB forum where people want all calls to be monitored by automated systems, because the human umps suck so bad.

If any sports should do that shit, it should be basketball, refs single handily change the game on numerous occasions.

He was a defensive player coming out of college.

He improved, dramatically, on offense thru pure will and determination.

"RW defends" is a myth. He may have at one point been a decent defender, but he's no longer good. He's living off reputation, like Rondo did for years.

If Lebrun got calls by the book he'd shoot 25 free throws a game

Exhibit A, B, C and D of why Russell Wilson wife'd her...lol

I have to give her props.

She can go from hood rat to glamorous better than anyone I've ever seen.

Agreed, even though most people will disagree with you, I used to watch him get hacked multiple times while going to the rim and the refs would swallow their whistle.

It's one of the reasons he started flopping so much, because if he no sells it, the refs definitely won't call it.

Lebron definitely doesn't get as many calls as he maybe should because of his natural strength. That's not to say he doesn't get a lot of the benefit of the doubt in situations where he misses though. Also gets away with an extra step pretty often, so I think overall it kind of balances out. Can't have the best of both worlds.

Lady in the street, freak in the sheets. IMO.

The fact that she dated fucking Future, and had a child with him, and then dates a class act like Rustle and makes him wait until marriage, smh.


Nice guys finish last, literally.

Yep, he has totally abandoned that part of the game.

Hopefully, he got that shit out of his system this Season.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Freak, Kawhi, Davis, KAT aren't far behind due to their age.

But, yeah....KD is the consensus for most.

But, I'd take Kawhi or Freak if I'm starting from scratch.

I would take Kawhi right now over anyone....well except Lebron. But being Kawhi is younger it is him no doubt.

Yep he never used to flop in his early Cleveland days but once he started getting disrespected he started acting. It helped but he still doesn't get a ton of calls

That waiting til marriage shit was him.

But, I'd be hard pressed to pick a person that would be worst than smashing after Future.

Maybe one of the Kartrashians or Charlie Sheen?

I'm not as sold as you on it being a no-brainer, but he would get very strong consideration from me.

I'd honestly be torn between Kawhi, Giannis, and AD. Towns is just a shade below those guys.

Plug and play, I'd choose Kawhi. Building a team around, I might go Giannis. Most talented is probably AD. Just depends on which direction you'd want to go.

Well he does a lot of crab dribbling, which is often confused with an extra step, especially with his size and length and the way he uses the crab dribble.

And on other instances he gets away with a step, it's the NBA, I literally saw a few weeks ago where Steph Curry walked with ball in hand for 10 steps, no joke, no one gives a shit about traveling anymore.

Yep.

But, if Freak ever learns how to shoot?

Good grief.
