Can't believe the Wolves and Pacers are in the conference finals b2b years

I guess there is parity in this league

For him not to win a game without steph shows he isn't the secondary scoring option they needed

He definitely didn’t look the same without Curry, just don’t know how hurt he is.

Or the wolves are a good team and the east is trash?

It's not even that he didn't win a game for them, it's his lack of aggression when they needed him the most. If you're gonna go down, at least go down swinging. Draymond taking more shots than you makes no sense.

Pacers just beat a team better than any of the 2 the Wolves beat

Ok. The East as a whole is trash. Yes they are top heavy but the East isn't a good conference, no need to get butt hurt over it

I'm not but I just don't need Indy success should be downplayed when one of the teams they beat won 64 games. I do agree the east as a whole was bad this year basically 7-15

Don't think he's that hurt unless he got injured after game 3 and didn't tell anyone?

He had 26 attempts in game 3 which is more where he should be with Steph out. Followed that up with a total of 20 shots in games 4 and 5

It was mostly just a tongue in cheek statement. This pacers team reminds me of the 93-94 rockets. When they are hitting their shots they are unbeatable.

Lol you can't just ignore the entire Midwest. They need success to drive fan engagement.

Not responding to msg because he's clearly a hater, but when Kuminga came back from his injury, Kerr would clearly discourage and bench him everytime he was starting to look for his shots. Just messing with the guy's confidence.

On a team like Boston or OKC, I get it if he's only getting 10 to 15 minutes. On a team like GSW though, he has no business playing less than 25 minutes, much less DNPs. Before Steph got injured, Kerr was playing guys like Spencer and Santos over him. He wasn't even playing in garbage time. Now that Steph's out, now Kerr wants to give him minutes? Lol.

I read that he got benched for looking off Steph to get his own shot. You don't operate outside the offense, especially when ignoring a wide open Steph to do it. Apparently, it was something that was happening fairly often.

I'm not sure why you are trying to boost up the west. Yes everyone knows they are the superior conference but the East is far from trash. The East had a lot of stars go down this postseason as well. Makes a huge difference

The Wolves did get somewhat of a free pass with the Curry injury.

Two sided coin though. If he defers too much, he doesn't contribute enough to make a case for more minutes. Maybe he needs a fresh start.
