[OhioState1987]

I Hate that fraud ass teams like Cp3 and the clippers get to move on to the next round and don't deserve it Utah really missing Gobert. Clippers doing all this work just to get shit on by Golden state the next round and not win a game. And y'all can hit the feelings button all u want to I really don't like Chris Paul I don't get the hype please tell me what I'm missing when it comes down to his game like what do he do that is so special that other PG's can't?

 

[DaBull]

Gobert is sorely missed !!

Lmao

He's the best pure PG in the league, whatever he lacks in flash, he makes up for in smarts, this comparison may come off crazy so flag me if u want but I think of him as our generation (black) John Stockton

I love John Stockton. Ill take prime cp3 over prime Stockton though.

That's a great comparison. Both have high basketball IQ and are quintessential point guards. They both stubborn, sneaky too and could score if they wanted to but understand their role is to get their bigs and everyone else involved first. Simple but effective pick and role, pass to the open man or shoot the midrange or drive to the hole if they overplay. They both hall of famers. For the record, I hated Stockton and the Jazz against my Jordan Bulls but I respected Stockton.

I Hate that fraud ass teams like IT and the Celtics get to move on to the next round and don't deserve it chicago really missing Rondo. Celtics doing all this work just to get shit on by washington the next round and not win a game. And y'all can hit the feelings button all u want to I really don't like Isiah Thomas I don't get the hype please tell me what I'm missing when it comes down to his game like what do he do that is so special that other PG's can't?

Fixed

sad !

Same ol story for the Clips, wouldn't make any difference against Warriors. If Jazz get Gobert, they can at least give Warriors a better series.

 

[its....JOHN B]

The general consensus if we make it to the next round will have Washington mopping the floor with us due to how bad we looked in the first round but we will handle Washington as long as we make it there, a bad matchup and a mental hurdle is the biggest reasons for our struggles, but if we get through Chicago Washington isn't stopping us, Cleveland will

 

[HustleThaDon]

Is blake officially injury prone now?

 

[ckfree]

jimmy picked a terrible night to miss 11 of his first 12 shots and 14 of his 21 shot attempts

no assists

one steal

one block

i understand he was doubled most possessions taking away the drive but bad floor spacing hasnt stopped him all year

he needs to be better/smarter

it wasnt even jimmy just missing shots some of the shots he was taking were just ymca game bad but the reason the bulls lost was brad stevens opening up the floor more and boston not bricking every other open look the bulls gave them

 

[ckfree]

griffin and his injury history and waning athleticism makes what lebron is doing athletically in year 14 more amazing

 

[Alpha_Ambition]

Shows how important your thumb and big toe are. You can't grip and you can't plant your foot at all.

Tough break nigga

This (except for the hate).

I'd take him over Stock, but it's almost a push. I just think CP3 can do everything John did, BUT Chris can take flat take over games. It also depends on what kind of team I've got and with that said, I think Paul naturally fits any system (and his assist/turnover ratio is better). Stock does have durability going for him tho.

Derrick Favors always looks like he ain't even interested in basketball. After 7 years and no real evolution in his game, it speaks to that.
