NBA: 2nd Round Matchup: Rockets vs. Lakers

[Spurtacular]

Lies. But if that helps you get over Kawhi or Lakers ringing. What a tough choice ...

You've done revisionist history to make yourself better.

What kind of moron wouldn't have Kawhi on his top 3, tbh?

let's not forget about KD and Steph just because they are hurt. im not saying they are unquestionably better, but they definitely have good arguments and have earned a spot in the discussion of being superior to kawhi (considering they've been pretty clearly the #2 and #3 players in the league for the past 5+ years) while kawhi really hasn't earned the spot of being superior to lebron yet.

Doc was at the game watching his son play (poorly). Sike! He was high key scouting the Lakers. ain't slick.

When the Lakers started clamping Houston midway thru the 4th, I saw him leaving early like he was tryna beat LA traffic

[Bynumite]

Rockets can replicate that shooting any time, their entire strategy is centered around shooting 3s. LA kept them completely wide open all game with their poor and predictable doubling of Harden.

Lakers got Rondo playing the best game he could possibly play. Danny Green and Morris combined for 7-10 3-point shooting, will never happen again.

Westbrook single-handedly beating Houston for 4 games is the only way they lose. He needs to go back to doing what he was pre-bubble.

Following this comment, Rondo immediately proceeds to have an even better game than he had in game 2 Harlem falling off. You hate to see it, as kids say these days

Despite S bag fan boys/cuckolds and anti bigs sentiments, there's no credible case for Davis not easily being in the same tier as S bag overall and to this point he's been better during the playoffs (despite much less fanfare). He's also doing it without a loaded, complete team.

Yeah such a “loaded, complete team” that Kawhi leads the team in points/rebounds/assist/blocks/steals along with having to take the biggest shots & having to put out fire when even Paul George gets torched. Meanwhile, Brow boy is dependent on a playmaker setting him up & tends to be MIA in crunch time let along asking for the ball in crucial situations.

Davis has played very well but he isn’t the focal point of the offense & hasn’t had to go up against an All-NBA big man.

Just wait for the WCF when Kawhi starts really trying and Davis becomes the Lakers' scapegoat, tbh.

I know you're trolling, but you're seriously going to attempt to argue this? They only have 1.5 superstars, 3 "closers", 5-7 shot creators, 4 plus 3-point shooters on the floor at virtually all times, tons of size/switch-ability on the wings and overall depth.

Davis is mostly creating his own offense. Big deal if James or some other perimeter player throws him the ball. He's mostly scoring on mid/low post ISO's, the same way S bag is.

Always got to be a cuck. If S bag is supposedly coasting, what does that say about his team (still succeeding) and why is he always credited for this? Davis is due for some regression and has a much worse team, so they'll more than likely lose. Swap them and the Clippers would still win.

Dude, one thing is being a cuck and another is negating reality.

Kawhi, I've said it thousands of times, but the dude is the best player in the World.

Your opinion isn't reality. My opinion is statistically supported by catch all metrics.

I guess we will have to wait and see on the next round just how on the same lavel they are, tbh.

Here's what we'll see: The guy with the significantly better team, who has to do far less and who the opposition has no one to defend, will more than likely win . . . then fanboys/cucks like you will rejoice.

Dude, are you even watching the game right now? Denver came back from double digits, George went to the bench with 4 fouls and Kawhi said " it" and single handedly pushed the lead back to 15 pts in like 3 minutes.

So, wait, let me get this straight. The Lakers have nobody to stop Kawhi, but the Clippers do have someone to defend Lebron? I wonder who that is.

[DAF86]

Kawhi out there playing as the scorer and facilitator on offense while defending Murray on the other. But he has to do "far less".

This phrase stuck with me so I had to do a little Research. Did you know that Kawhi is leading the Clippers on every mayor category ln these playoffs? Add to that having to defend the other team's best player far more than any other number one option in the NBA. Who in the actual does more than him in the entire league?

-1.5 "Superstars" b/c Playoff P is basically a role player every other night
-3 "closers" when the other team's closer is running a train on Lemon Pepper Lou
-5-7 "shot creators" b/c Beverely/Jackson/Shamet can shoot/dribble/drive like KCP

The hate is blinding you buddy. Half of Davis' bucket are in the paint & more than half of Davis' bucket are assisted (mostly via a PnR/transition) compared to 18% for Kawhi. Not to mention Davis gets plenty of garbage point off put backs.

Kawhi coasting doesn't mean he turns into a potato like Playoff P, it usually means he isn't exerting energy on defense until the 4th quarter like most superstars that carry a heavy load. He gets credit b/c he's still the best player on offense & the Clippers win in spite of their defense.....most of the time. As far as regression, Davis is shooting an unsustainable high percentage from mid-range (+40% compared to his season average) while Kawhi is shooting 10% below his season average from 3 so he can only improve.

Spurs fans need to redirect their salt towards Pop and Porker for running Kawhi offPERIOD

Truth bombs. I was really surprised about Pop's dismissal of Kiwi (publicly). Or should I have been surprised? He ran off Stephen Jackson too. Sad

Notice how much Taylor Rooks is retweeting this. Rumor: House was smashing HER in the jacuzzi bubble

so did several other teams throughout Jax's career. That's like being surprised at somebody for dumping a ho.

You can't be that stupid. He was LA bound no matter what. He was going to make any excuse to get there. If Pop/Parker didn't say anything he would have found some other excuse to get out.
