Mavs: lol Doncic

[Killakobe81]

I actually prefer the upside on Doncic much more than yall that was sucking off Porzingis ...
Doncic has a flor bound game and for me much less prone to injury ...
His vision is up there with some of the better wings ... he also seems to enjoy big (regular season) moments.

Might ...just might be a better prospect than even Tatum/mitc long-term... but Its way to early to say so definitively.

Bull Diaw’s biggest Finals moment was getting beat for a rebound by Chris Bosh to lose Game 6 and then the series. David Lee’s Finals moment was rescuing the 2015 Warriors when Steph was choking. Only in the most homerific of SpurFan fever dreams was Diaw ever better than Lee.

Boris Diaw should have arguably been finals MVP back in 2014, tbh.

you can't plan torn acls unless they have been injured before.

Boris had the most impact on those finals, tbh. It wasn't untill Pop made the obvious decision of starting him over Splitter that the Spurs started to completely dominate the series.

Check this thread for some "non-revisionist history" context:

If it was up to me finals MVP would go to Boris, tbh. He's our most valuable player in this series. I know Kawhi has balled these last two games but between Manu, Green and Patty as SG we can somehow make up for his absence, same with Tiago for Tim and we have seen that we can survive without Tony. But we have no other player on the roster that can do what Boris does and for this series what Boris does is a huge matchup advantage.

[BD24]

Of all the takes I have seen

Boris Diaw, Finals MVP

FFS

[Texas_Ranger]

Diaw did a great job in those finals, but so did most of the Spurs. If you wanna give Diaw the MVP then you can give it to Tony, Manu, Green or Tim also.

You can predict lower extremity injuries in guys over 7 foot 2, because I did... I said I worried he was an injury risk and here we are... Maybe you can't...

Weight load and bad posture are certainly good indicators, but i don't see how is that relevant to him. And even if it was a foot injury, which it wasn't, it would still be way worth the risk. You can say every basketball player is an injury risk..

Would you agree a problematic knee puts him at risk for further injuries?
FOR every Embiid there are lots of wsam Bowies and Andrew Byum

yes but he did not have a problematic knee before the draft

[DAF86]

Unless he’s getting 20 boards and 15 assists a night, there’s no way you can say a 6 ppg scorer is MVP. Just when I thought your takes couldn’t get any worse

lol son. You have never won any basketball related bet against me on this board. You don't get to mock me on my basketball takes, tbh.

Um why are there re s acting like Boris for FMVP is so ridiculous? He was up there as the most important Spur and that team was unique in the sense that there was no clear cut best player/superstar. He was getting FMVP love from the media during those Finals.

[HarlemHeat37]

I wouldn't go as far as saying Finals MVP or anything close, but Diaw's 26-point game 6 vs. OKC(which was the real Finals and most important game of the playoffs) was far better than David Lee scoring 9 points(which I didn't even remember, had to look it up) against LeBron and scrubs..

Regardless, the Warriors going on an all-time great run immediately after removing David Lee from their rotation cemented his legacy it spoke volumes that Kerr decided he didn't want his stat-padding style..

[HarlemHeat37]

they got beat by LeBron without Lee, and had to beg Durant to come save them.

Why are you doing this?

[FkLA]

He is a bad dude.

Next KAT confirmed. KAT hasn't done and plays no defense but he's "special" too.

he was more the robert horry of the situation..

[Killakobe81]

yes but he did not have a problematic knee before the draft

Sure, which makes my prediction even more impressive, tbh. My preference is for players no more than 7 foot 1...maybe two the guys taller than that are usually stiff, injury prone or tease talents like Gobert, Yao, illgzukas etc

[Will Hunting]

Agreed tbh. Over 7 feet you better really do your homework on the guy, and if there’s even the sightest bit of question with his legs/feet holding up long term, you bail out and pick someone else.

I’m hoping THAT Deandre Ayton is the exception to this. So far he has been.

[DMC]

Luka 1-10

[Killakobe81]

I think 7 foot 1 is fine and even 7 foot 2 is fine its the ones way over that

[Mark Celibate]

Luka just blocked LeBron twice

[Killakobe81]

Toug game for Luca still believe in him though
