after 1 game? i guess i missed them awarding okc the trophy crofl
you really expected stern to let miami come out and dominate game 1, take homecourt right away, and probably deflate the thunders young morale going on to beat them in 4 games?![]()
You are a got. That was the Hype's best chance at stealing a game in OKC. They blew it. Period. Point. Blank.
The Thunder won't be star struck like in det 1st half. They didn't get much from Harden either... Yet here they are, 1-0.
they blew it after game 1! might as well go home! lmao idiot
They played horrible and yet that was their best chance at stealing one? Gee you're stupid.
Sure, why not, and blaming the refs?
Chalmers had 10, Battier had 17 POINTS?!?!
Harden had 5, yet they still won.
Not sure what happens in Game 2, but that was a very good chance for Miami to steal Game 1.
^ sup mono
miami should've done better protecting their paint imho, OKC aint at all that swole at the low post, porkins is a crap at the offensive end and their scores in paint were mostly achieved by driving-ins. spurs lost to them okc but their strategy might still be worth plagiarizing for them Miami imho, just block the lanes and do everything you can to prevent s like durant/westchuck/sefolosha from drivin inside, forcing them to shoot jumpers. s are inconsistent and they ain't keepin their FG% high even if you leave them open all game long

We're they NOT up double digits as late as the 3rd quarter before their patent pending chokery? Are the Thunder NOT dominant at home? Was this NOT the Thunder's first Finals game? You know the answers to these questions. All of this aside, they still came back and tapped det Hype ass. The championship teams don't let teams off the hook like that. They stomp on their throats with metal cleats. They put steel toe boots to asses. The Hype didn't do any of that.
Truth be told, OKC won't come out with deer in the headlights look v. the Hype in game two. They got a 5-time champion in their ear telling them what to expect from you bums next game, etc. And probably the most important factor: KD. This kid is showing the world what a special talent he is. 1st Finals game against "the best player in the world" (Wade's words - not mines)? No problem:
12/20 (60%)
36 points (17 in the 4th)
8 Rebs
4 helpers
1 emphatic swat on D-Whistle
KD > LeHype. Acknowledge it hommie.![]()
KD dropped 17 4th quarter points (effortlessly) on 1st team all nba defense LeHype! I love typing that .
![]()
but how much of the game did lebron actually guard him? i saw battier on him a lot and at one point wade![]()
I think it was Battier in the 4th when Durant really went off.
^i don't think culburn jr realizes that![]()
GTFO out my thread got. That was sarcasm because Spo and LeHype knows he can't check KD. Everyone says he shut down Rose last year. He's 1st team all nba defense. Everybody know KD was getting the rock in the 4th. Why couldn't LeHype stop him?
KD > LeHype. Acknowledge it hommie.![]()
oh now it was sarcasm, how convenient![]()
I watched the game. I know what happened. A true 1st team all nba defender takes that challenge and don't pass it off to a 52 year old Battier.
As much as you guys give Kobe, he would demand to take the opposing teams' best player. Like he did in '08 Olympics. You know, when he lead LeHype to gold.![]()
KD reminded me of prime Kobe during his 5 championship runs last night.
#ACNE-MAMBA![]()
what are you talking about? kobe neverrrrrrrrrr guards the opposing teams best player. never.
I watch way more Laker games than you. I'm willing to put money on that. And I wouldn't say never, but the last 3-4 years Ariza, MWP, or Barnes have taken the lion share of the defensive minutes against the oppositions best perimeter players. Prior to them Kobe had to do it because we needed him to. Even with them on the roster, if it is a critical stop needed, I've seen Kobe try to guard these elite perimeter players.. He's had a lot less success now, but in his prime - like LeHype is right now, his 1st team all nba defense nods were legit tbh. Now he gets the nod on reputation.![]()
kobe's all defenses were never legit. even when he was capable of defending well (which was only for a short period in his career) he never chose to do it in any manner even remotely resembling consistency.
