Rivers is overrated. He needs a Thibs-like coach to provide that defense that he needs to elevate the Clips to the next level. If they play elite...
You are aware Memphis was a 56 win team last year right?
They lost for the primary reason they brought Doc Rivers in for: defense. That alone would make it a failed season. I'm sure the Stirling...
If basketball was that simple huh.
Oh trust me, I know they're a better offensive team. Vastly. But Blake Griffin would have grown anyways (he only grew this year when CP3 went...
OKC and Clips are pretty damn close in terms of talent. Having Durant wouldn't guarantee you winning the series b/c he cost his team one game and...
So switching CP3 with WB in game 5 and OKC would win? Assuming same numbers as you stated.
Clips brought him in to make them tougher defensively. They still sucked defensively. And they lost this series b/c they sucked defensively.
What's the main reason? WB - 28, 6, 9, 49%, 35%, 2 steals. He was the best player in games 2, 3, 5. So in 3 of OKC's wins, he was OKC's best...
He didn't win 6th man of the year? You don't consider that an elite role player? Guess you have high standards. Maybe Durant isn't an elite player...
You rather want Shane Battier? Mo Williams? Jeremy Lin? Nobody is blaming Chris Paul for some of his teammates' struggles . I'm personally...
Just b/c you're stacked doesn't mean you'll win. Heat lost to the Mavs no? It's a team game, and a lot of factors come into play. My point is,...
I think you underrate how stacked the Clips are. Elite PG Elite PF Elite shooter Elite 6th man Supposedly elite coach One of the better centers...
Another thing: Doc Rivers was brought in to improve the D. But it still sucked. This Clips team is STACKED. If they played any semblance of good...
You can't shut down a star. But if you're CP3, you can't let another PG outshine you like that. WB > CP3 all series (except for game 1 - and...
Don't worry, the refs will allow HIbbert's verticality to be all over Lebron.
It's a toss up for me. At their best, OKC's peak is better (Durant/WB). But Spurs are more consistent. I'm leaning towards OKC as I have all...
The opposing PG outplayed him (despite what the stats say). Paul needs to bring it even more.
The Pacers have the defense to slow down the Heat. If Wade doesn't step up, this could be a long series. Ultimately though, the Heat will win...
Better team won. Clips lost this series b/c their defense sucks. I read on ESPN that prior to this game, their defensive rating is like 110....
