Nuggets can't win if they don't run up the score, the Clippers are just too good defensively. They need to play at a faster pace...
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Bad mouth MPJ, then next thing you know he's sinking dagger 3s. His release point is impossible to stop.

You mean when both Klay and durant went down and they basically put 4 guys on Steph the rest of the series
Yeah. I'm sure that little detail was purposely omitted.
The rewriting of history is ridiculous
one said Kawhi is a giant killer. Which dynasties has this dude single handedly killed? I love Kawhi he's **** awesome.
He hasn't dismantled any dynasties by himself.
Its like people cant stop themselves from writing fan fiction about players.

Braun is a 35% Corner 3P shooter.

He can't create any space because as tall as he is, he's unathletic than a mf'er. So it's almost impossible for him to create his own against active defense. So the only thing he has left is spot up shooting, which he's streaky with.
Since he's tall but so slow and unathletic, he can't hustle across the court for rebounds and loose balls like Braun can. Or defend like Gordon can. He has a KD body type with 5% of KD's athletic gifts. Most people in the NBA his size and length are above average athletes but he moves like he's in quicksand and it affects every part of his game.
I mean, it's a small miracle he's even playing after multiple back surgeries. But as a prospect he was touted as highly athletic, a lot of that was sapped from him. He's low key one of the bigger "what if's" his jumper was just so good that he still found a place in the league.

He has had back and nerves issues since college. He is nowhere near the prospect he was back in HS.
