Manutd19:Just saw the highlight. He shares the same shooting range with Steph. Westbrook tried to play bully ball the last second but couldn't finish. |

Westbrook's shots were more than his points last night. Lol. Dame, nice one bro. Thanks for sending those fvckers home. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:57am On Apr 24, 2019 |
steady986: 114 points from 111 shots this series. |

Eruditor:Nobody disputed Oladipo was not better than his numbers. This was the source of disappointment to start with. Remember he was a 2nd pick Of course Oladipo thriving in Indy could also be attributed to playing in an expanded role, in a team that wasn't expected to do much. Fast forward to this season and if you check properly, Oladipo's numbers are all down from last season prior to his unfortunate injury which makes you wonder if last year was an outlier Eruditor:Koeman? Nobody tagged Koeman the best thing since sliced bread. Were you expecting trophy from Everton?? Benitez barely spent a full season at either club. Pep finished trophyless in his first season getting knocked out to Monaco in the freaking second round!! You think he wouldn't have gotten the boot at Madrid or Chelsea? Carlo is finishing at the same place Sarri finished with essentially same squad. Both coaches won nothing Anywho, none of these guys enjoy the luxury of the blank cheque and unlimited stability Guardiola enjoys. Pep is achieving the bare minimum. And the only team that rivalled them in spending thus far is matching them blow for blow |

chic2pimp:Old Man Jupp took us to Semi-Final last season. The more pertinent question is why Pep is yet to get to even semis despite spending £500m+ |

aliondo:They said this last year. Dude shoots like Westbrook with Curry's mentality. 3yrs now he hasn't changed. |
Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 10:05am On Apr 24, 2019 |
SmooshCHN: I prolly deserve all the bashing from you..You came outrightly brutal on him then and I initially used to disagree a lot with you but now I see what you were saying all this while..You were right all this while.. |
Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 10:16am On Apr 24, 2019 |
Nurkic don finish us with that shirt. . ...Last season, it was 'a rookie' took us down... |
Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 10:18am On Apr 24, 2019 |
I now see why K.D left...Man, if you can get your 3rd ring, go for it cos you deserve it but I ain't following you to the Warriors... |
Re: The NBA Begins by aliondo: 10:38am On Apr 24, 2019 |
birdman:Bro...you absolutely right...I don't have a problem if he is ready to sit down and learn how to really play that PG position from peeps like CP3, Magic, Stockton, Kidd, Nash etc but Russ is just too arrogant, proud and stubborn. ..Cos of this, I just give up defending him till he is ready to change and learn.. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 11:39am On Apr 24, 2019 |
aliondo:This part is everything. I hope Russ can change oo. Oh wait!!! We might be in trouble if he changes. Nah!! He is Russell Westbrook he can't change at 30. I hope I'm wrong though. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 1:13pm On Apr 24, 2019 |
A40: Nah. You guys said Oladipo was a scrub. I said Oladipo was played out of rhythm and given the ball to shoot with 2 seconds left on the clock. KD's regular season numbers were all down from last season. Numbers deflect here and there. Indy were seeded higher and Oladipo was on course to being an all star again back to back. Koeman? Nobody tagged Koeman the best thing since sliced bread. Were you expecting trophy from Everton?? Koeman puts the money theory to bed. He was great with all the minnows he coached. He is great again with Netherlands squad but failed miserably with more money. That Benitez spent less than a season in Inter and RM is an indictment on his coaching. That Pep would have been fired at RM or Chelsea is moot considering they did not fire Mou in his 2nd term after finishing 3rd and trophyless nor did he get the boot in RM in his first season. Carlo is finishing maybe 23points behind Sarri. That is exactly what he is doing. I am 100% sure Klopp crashed out to Wolves and Chelsea in competitions with better squads this is an aside from not winning anything in the same EPL. So how did the bare minimum criteria change for him? Pep had also failed in the FA Cup back to back prior to this season. That one has been fixed. Every thing else that has not been fixed will be. Lucky for him, the UCL is something he has won, twice in. 1 Like |

Eruditor:No. We said he played like one! He shot poorly throughout the series. That is the bitter truth. Every player has had bad series, even LeNomad James Anyway no point delving deeper into the number of times he was given the ball with 2 seconds left on the clock because if we ask you to show and prove you might not be able to do so Nope. KD shot 52% last season and shot 52% this season. His numbers were identical Oladipo went from approx 48% shooting last season to 42% shooting. Significant difference Eruditor:How is Koeman great? What was his record before going to Everton Eruditor:This one is neither here nor there. The difference between Pep's scenario and that of Benitez boils down to the former dealing with more patient employers. Even Pep knows that is why he is very selective of the type of teams he moves to Mourinho won how many trophies his first tenure at Chelsea? He had the cache to earn another season Mourinho won the CDR in his first year at Madrid ending a 4 year trophyless run Eruditor:Lol what was Napoli's investment this season? Compare to Juventus adding Cristiano Ronaldo. Bottom line they are in the same boat with Sarri's team that won nothing and didn't even make the quarterfinals of the Europa Everyone knows Klopp's target is CL and EPL. This is the first year he has had enough significant investment to compete and you can see for yourself the impact. I can bet you're praying fervently for City to win else your boy would be stuck with a Mickey mouse double Lmaooo. Let's run down the teams Pep has faced in this season's FA Cup shall we? And as for CL shebi na here we dey. When you were exonerating Pep at Bayern we warned you that this man don cast. Now he can't even cross quarterfinals |
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 3:08pm On Apr 24, 2019 |
Paul George really said that game-winning, series closing shot was a bad shot Per Second Spectrum, Lillard is 8-of-12 from 30-plus feet this postseason, compared to 6-of-38 for everyone else. He's right that it's a bad shot for anyone else but not the guy with the ball at the time |
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 3:09pm On Apr 24, 2019 |
Now that dust is settled and the next round beckons on us, I have one request for the NBA through its referees for the Celtics v Bucks series. I understand there is an intentional push by the league to have Giannis become the face of the league and to denounce the idea that small market teams can not cope in the current league. I am not one to complain about officiating but it is imperative I raise this concern considering the antecedents going into the series. Please and please, officiate the game respectfully and fairly. Appropriate fouls fairly and accordingly without bias because one player is in the run in for the MVP or the face of the league. |

A40: That's the thing. You guys are in a hurry. Give it time as I am confident that He would not only get to the SeminFinals, He will Win it. |
