Irving like Wade just hands over the keys to their team to LeBron. Irving is good enough to be lead dog as Wade was. They should have had some PRIDE in theirselves and abilities. Instead, both guys like wussy out

Dude, you need to get to the emergency room right away. I think you're having a stroke.

It's called deferring to the better player and it's the smart thing to do. It's been going on for years. In the 80's, Kareem and James Worthy were good enough to be the lead dogs, but they deferred to Magic because it made them a better team. The Celtics had Parrish and McHale who were good enough to be the lead, but they deferred to Bird because it made them better

In Lebron's first year in Miami, he and D-Wade tried to share the lead dog role equally and it cost them the title vs. the Mavs.

They figured out that they were better off with Lebron in the lead role and and made 3 more trips to the finals, winning 2. Yes, D-Wade was a good enough player to be the lead dog, but they were a better team with Lebron in that role because Lebron is/was a better player.

Kyrie is definitely good enough to be the lead dog, but Lebron is the better player, so Kyrie wisely defers to Lebron because it makes the Cavs a better team.

Draymond Green calling other players dirty ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha

I saw that. Couldn't stop laughing. I'm not saying Olynyk isn't dirty, but to my knowledge, he hasn't kicked anyone in the balls.

lol Except it's not made up. It's stupid, but it's not made up. Besides, I have a reply.
As long as I know we're still friends, I was afraid you took my indiscretions against your modding a tad too serious earlier, I was afraid we were on bad terms, I'm happy to have you back, friend.

Meh, there is very little that I take seriously enough to get upset over. Internet message board stuff isn't on that list.

Neto doesn't even look at the rim on his penetration or when he catches in space. The Warriors are playing him accordingly. He will continue to be an offensive liability for the Jazz unless he ca. Grow a pair and become somewhat of a threat.

Just imagine how good the Jazz would be if Favors were still playing at near all star level and Exum was as good as people thought he could be coming into the league.

Exum been a major disappointment. Guess some of that is due to the ACL tear

Yeah.

I honestly thought he had been in the league longer than he has. I think he was drafted 3 years ago, but only played 2? Too lazy to look it up.

Warriors gonna get a long rest. Spurs/rockets probably going 7. And the reward? An ass beating by GS

Correct. Missed the 2015-2016 season due to some ACL tear while playing for his country.

To your point, he can create his own shot at any point & practically from anywhere on the floor. THAT is what they were missing & KD is the perfect player to fit that bill.

I still laugh at guys like Rob Parker who said the Dubs would've been better off paying Barnes the max. LOL

George Hill is 100x better than these guards they have in. Exum is young but they all are scrubs. Hill has championship experience and is basically there 2nd option. I guess ot doesnt matter, they were gonna lose regardless. I knew this would be a quick series. Many thought Utah could hang but they dont have enough offense.

They're a bunch of lame fucks anyway. Decision clearly worked out for ol' Shuttleworth. Ray Allen should count his lucky stars that he doesn't have to associate with Ratatouille and soft ass looking DMX.

Wonder if they give Doc shit for forcing a trade to the Clips?

Describe this championship experience that Hill has.
