Kevin Durant is unfair

Nets are contesting Giannis more, and he's still hitting these jumpers. LOL, I don't know what's up with him, if he's going to do that consistently, there's no defense for him.

On the bench now with foul trouble though. Maybe that's the best defense for him lol.

KD has been amazing so far.

this is some bad defense on both sides. too many advantages gained for no reason in semi-transition

Stan Van Gundy should retre already. He defensive job on Curry is so bad

Dallas needs to win this game. No Butler, no KP makes it pretty evenly matched.

Cmon LaMelo, cmon Terry. Put us down! Don’t let Sekou and Diallo keep us in this.

Man the KD/Giannis matchup is so damn fun. I hope Philly gets that #1 seed so we can potentially see both teams in the second round.

If/when the Nets have Harden back I don’t think the Bucks can afford to not have Giannis guard KD. I know they want he and Lopez to protect the rim, but you cannot have Divincenzo and Middleton guarding KD and Harden.

if harden is healthy, then that matchup wont really mean anything.

False. Even if the Nets are at full strength that’s still going to be a very competitive series and nothing we’ve seen this year makes me think that’s likely. Harden’s missed 20/62 games. Durant’s missed 37/66.

I'm not saying he is a great coach but that is unfair. Everybody defensive job on Steph looks bad. Steph is just that dude.

Defence optional

Anyone else noticed that Doncic added the 3-pts-shot of the dribble to the right? He started doing these 3 or 4 games back.
Also, i think he has a left knee injury. When he is driving to the rim he has absolutely no lift off of his left leg and he repeatedly grabs at it and winces.
That good and not even healthy...

2nd quarter was much more like it. Herro and Precious is also out also for Miami. Go getem Mavericks!

Make KD play defense

Archx · Post #38 » by **Archx** » Wed May 5, 2021 1:15 am

It's hilarious how much better Doncic plays when he's not talking to refs 90% of the time.

I think he is pretty happy with his defensive assignment. Iggy attempted one shot in the first half. He is tailor made to get a break on almost every trip to the other end of the floor

The Heat are not the same team when Butler is playing.

I really don't know what Bledsoe is doing out there. Not playing D, can't make a shot...it just looks like he's throwing himself around trying to get a whistle.
