    Downright repulsive that LeBeta's road to the Finals consists of a team whose only "star" and best player is Victor Oladipo, 2 perennial playoff chokers and a star depleted Celtics team.

    Eastern Conference

    Thank God for the Warriors who will be there to exact punishment and strike with great vengeance upon LeBum

    And that's ANOTHER playoff win and playoff series win for the Celtics without "Killa" Kyrie.

    Embiid settled for too many long distance jump shots in the 4th quarter. In the third in quarter he was scoring at will inside the paint and then stopped doing in the 4th quarter.

    imagine the sixers didnt trade up and instead just took Tatum at 3

    Embiid-Saric-Tatum-Re -Simmons

    yikes

    it's still early to write off Fultz, obviously... but with Tatum at this point you already know you're getting a star

    Knowing what Simmons is , I honestly didn't get the need to draft a PG with the #1 overall pick

    they probably envisioned them on the court together... and Fultz was a good shooter in college.

    From what I heard is the Celtics were always going to draft Tatum even if they had kept the number 1 pick. They were just doing Philly a favor by trading the number 1 pick so the Sixers could get Fultz.

    If anything, mindlessly passing the ball just to say that you're "moving the ball well" leads to more TOs and passing up better looks for worse shots. Against GSt, isoball is the way to go, especially since they're so deadly in transition off of opponent turnovers. Isoball is what the Cavs and Thunder used to have success against them in 2016.
    We're talking two different things here.

    I'm referring more to moving without the ball to get open looks. The Warriors do that better than anyone. Particularly, Klay Thompson, the way he runs around screens to get open. Reminds a lot of how Reggie Milller used to do it. I think Klay is hands down, one of the best pure shooters in the game.

    You need the personnel to do that though. Player and/or unselfish ball movement doesn’t work with every team. It certainly doesn’t work as well if teams don’t have the players Golden State has. You suggested that Golden State wins if Harden and Paul play too much iso ball. But iso ball is exactly how the Rockets are built. They are NOT built to have a lot of player and ball movement. It’s isolation, PNR, and drive and kick. That’s how they win. One way may be prettier than the other. But depending on the construction of the team, one way isn’t necessarily always better for every team.

    You have to adapt to the roster of players you have. Houston wouldn’t be nearly as effective running a unselfish, free flowing, cut and pass, everyone gets a touch every possession heavy offense. They have to run iso and PNR to be successful. Houston may still lose, but NOT running iso ball with Harden and Paul won’t be the answer to beat Golden State.

    Agree wholeheartedly. I don't want the ball in anyone's hands except Harden or Paul. Only time Capella touches it is of a defensive collapse. That weakens GS defense. Draymond can stand around while Harden isolates.

    Didn't you say the Raptors were going to beat the Cavs and the Bruins were going to win the Cup?

    How do you not account for the LeGOAT factor? He's LeGOAT for a reason.

    You also didn't account for Tuuka Rask becoming Tuugoals Fast in the playoffs, per par.

    That went south really fast.

    2 weeks ago: "The next Lebron!"

    Now: "Can't shoot, can't post up at 6'10, and was a net negative for his team."

    It would've been funny to see Kyrie Irving and Isaiah Thomas play against each other on opposite teams from last year, tbh.

    Simmons main problem in this series were the turnovers. Not so much how many, but, when they occurred.

    The ones he committed late in games 3 and 5 were the most costly.

    He's the ROY, IMO. Would like to see him develop into more of a perimeter shooter. That's his biggest weakness.
