LOL.

He is the point guard. He can shoot whenever but be is choosing to facilitate. This narrative you're trying to push is stupid

 

[bksballer89]

You guys can't blame kyrie for everything. He isn't the point guard. If he was still the pg and Harden only had 5 attempts then that is a different story. As a pg, you get to choose if you're being aggressive or not. Harden on his own is choosing to be passive

Neither of the top 2 guys could hit the side of a barn when they were Pistons

It was facetious, calm down. I very much doubt he's going to demand a trade after 4 games with a new team

Yeah if they are struggling defensively with this team...they are going to have a lot of issues

In the end they won but they have a long way to go to be a deep playoff team

What a night for Bam though

Yeah they gotta score 120+ every game. Very possible but that takes a lot out of any team having to do it conistent for 60+ games

not over yet

And almost impossible in a best of seven vs a good team

Over now. Heat continue to fight shorthanded and lose. I hate this nba season. Baseball season can't get here faster

Yep Cavs had to do it for 2 weeks

Wish they did like college basketball. Pause a team from playing for 2 weeks if there were multiple positive covid test.

I feel bad for the mavs. Feels like they had 3 rotation players MIA due to covid for about 3 weeks now or close to it

he almost pulled a Sexton.

no team was as short handed as the Cavs were for those 2 weeks....the back court was just insane.

 

[bksballer89]

What a night for Bam though

The guy went from not being able to make a jump shot prior to the bubble to having a inconsistent jump shot in the bubble that was lacking confidence to now having all the confidence in the world in his mid range jump shot.....and this all took place in the last 9-10 months.

Simply amazing

Heat having similar issues. The 3 key guys out right now all play the same position basically.

I get contact tracing can be frustrating but in the NBA you're one injury to your superstar away from being a totally different team.

We've had several finals of late with teams with multiple guys out.

With covid they just gotta push through. Way more games than cbb

Brooklyn gave up 124 pts to a Heat team with no Butler and no Herro. My expert analysis indicates that the Nets have some defensive issues to work on.
