LeBrons hair looks good with an army haircut. Don't know why he always hid his hairline with a headband.

Well that happens when your Go To Guy is Evan Turner.

I do think he could be better utilized as a third option but yea, I do think 2nd option is his better position. He needs an offensive 1-3 to carry the team and hit the big shots but he is absolutely capable of being the guy who can pick up a huge chunk of the scoring load. It's not an insult to Love, I also think Prime KG was not best suited as a first option guy either, meaning, he shouldn't carry the offensive load. Its rare in todays NBA that a big man should and its a role much better suited to a guard/wing that can create their own offense.

Of course probably the most important thing is that if Kevin Love is your third option, your probably a title contender because team has a ton of talent.

He was good enough to be serviceable, so was KG and many others, but I don't think you are winning a title with those guys as first options. Its not impossible but they would need to have an extremely high level cast around them.

Smart and Olynyk are actually solid players but they are building for mediocrity there. I have no idea how they are going to get the at least two or three high caliber players missing to get into contending mode. Then again they probably don't have any idea either.

2 trades away from being 2 trades away.

Brad Stevens is too good as a coach. They need to fire him so they can tank properly.

That's what Doug Collins mentioned either in pregame or at half. They've got solid players, now they need a difference-maker or two to take the next step.

With the way to NBA is build you have to search for the difference makers before finding the solid role players. :dontknow:

I have a hard time believing Boston can sign a couple stars via free agency and the possibility they pick up a difference maker with a mid 1st is not very high.

Love the way Kevin played in the second half. He seemed so nervous in the first two quarters, but i'm really happy for the guy.

If Toronto does gather the hype train to go after Wiggins down the line, it will be a force to be reckoned with lol.

Blah, next season Atlantic won't be weak. There won't be hype trains if they screw up free agency now.

The Toronto game they played bad baskeball. The finish wasn't boring, but the game was horrible.

Kawhi Leonard will be the key to this series. Mark it down. Also, Hack-a-DJ.

It's like something you'd see in the WWE.

How do these teams only have 30 points in the first half?
