I think with this denver defense bron gonna let AD feast

Having a game where you get 11 points from 10 shots kind of disqualifies it being the lebron series for me. Lebron's best game was better than davis's, but davis's worst was a lot better.


What are you even talking about? Looking at raw stats, traditional advanced stats, and impact stats, LeBron edged out AD on all of them in the Houston series.


I dont neccessarily think its a wash, but looking at impact data over a series doesnt work well most of the time, esp against a team like houstan

You make the finals every year and you tend to accumulate a lot of stats.

Also hes one of the best 3 point shooters that has played a lot playoff games in this new era.

He's the same guy, he's just on a winning team now. 2015-now for a playoff series you take Lebron 1st, AD 2nd.

No he's not. Davis was not as good defensively before as he is this season and his playmaking only become decent in 18-19 where he was auto dq'd from top 2 consideration by being put on a limits restirction. Davis is also shooting much better these playoffs from three and middies than he's done before. Stop this revisionist bs.



His D in 2018 was pretty fire, agree on the passing though.

Nah I think Bron handled the Houston series when it mattered. Game 2 he put the team on his back in the first half. That was pivotal. They basically were in cruise control the last 2 games

LeBron was +13 and AD -7 at the end of that run that basically put the game away.




At the same time Davis out the nail in the coffin in the third.

Yup, he dropped most of his points in the second quarter when they put the game out of reach

What put the game away was the nuggets best two players being stuck on the bench, and that was all davis.

My favorite moment in this game was when the camera caught LeBron looking like “Damn we have prime Dwight Howard too?” :lol:

Not only is lebron playing low minutes he also doesn’t have to do literally everything on the court for the first time.


This is his best team ever.

Idk if anyone's watching this but Shaq is talking the most reckless I've ever seen him talk on Inside the NBA. Made jokes about slapping the hell outta Chuck and joking about Chuck smoking crack :rofl:. Hell with that goatee he looks like Lil Rey Howery so it made it even funnier lmaoo
