You're crazy. Now I'll never argue Bogut being the best center in the league- but he did protect the rim for them and fit in nicely with that team on defense. Anyone who says they didn't miss him in those last two games can't keep it 1-hunid.

I can't keep it 1-Hunid. My limit is 95

Knowing what to do and actually executing it, is two different things though. I'm absolutely sure the Warriors know how to close out games.

This was my only point. I already know & agree with the rest of your post.

I'm just sooooo happy the Kings took him and not Klay.

Yeah, talk about dodging a bullet.

Speaking of Klay- is it just me or does it appear as of late he's been shooting way more than anything else? I have noticed there are times when he's taking bad shots instead of making the right basketball play (passing the ball).

if the Cavs have a lineup where LeBron plays PF---

PG- Kyrie
SG- Korver
SF- JR
PF- LeBron
C- Love

how do you double LeBron?


a lineup of

PG- Kyrie
SG- Korver or JR
SF- LeBron
PF- Love
C- Fry

isnt much different.

think of how much space Kyrie and LeBron would likely have with those lineups...its scary to think about.

In the Finals the year before, Bogut was a 'healthy DNP' for the last 2 games. (and only played 2 minutes in game 4) They benched him after the Cavs went up 2-1.

Well, he did say he wasn't adjusting his game...lol

Yea, they went complete small ball

He wasn't doing much in the finals in '16 either, but he was a better rim protector than anyone else they had.

He was averaging 1.6 bpg in the yoffs on only 16 mpg

Yea, so did Chalmers, by Spalding.

Damn, didn't realize Super Mario got a shoe deal as well. I guess in today's NBA all you have to be is below average & some shoe company will throw money @ you. Good for him.
