2017 NBA Playoffs Thread - CLE @ BOS Game 5 on TNT

[a-friend]

Billy D has had to deal with some **** his first 2 years there. Dude honestly deserves more love than he gets. When OKC was balling out against GSW last year, they were all executing on all cylinders within his system. When Russ and KD started iso balling that's when the series fell apart.

He finally got them to prescribe to his way of thinking and playing and they were smashing.

He even went so far as to say it straight up in the Post game pressers after OKc started giving back games that "I can give them the game plan, they have to follow it. I can't be responsible for them going back to the ways of old, I can only teach, they play"

Wall and Russ are different type of players. They way Wall plays is easier to coach if that's how you wanna put it.


Russ is getting them shots up no matter who his coach is.

I guarantee you 1000000% Pops and the Zenmaster don't tolerate the **** Russ pulled in the 4th quarter especially when you got quality guys like Oladipo, Adams, and Kanter on your team.

You telling me Randy Wittman had Wall under control before Brooks came onboard? Wall was doing anything he pleased. C'mon man

I always thought Wall has always been the superior floor general compared to Westbrook

Just Russ is the more dynamic scorer and an even bigger athletic freak compared to Wall.

Everyone here saw the convo. You backed out after openly flaunting your 1K in cash. I'm ready to bet. Are you? 

I do $300-500 lunches and dinners all the time like it's nothing. Wanna see a receipt from this past weekend? lol

You only fooling yourself buddy boy.

Russ been doing that **** for the past 5 years with both Brooks and Billy D in charge
Because Beta Durant got too scared most of the times

And Russ wouldn't fit in the Pops/Phil system
It's too structured for his style of play.
He would be looking like Melo on the Knicks right now

how about we let reputable NT hold both our 1k and gives the winner the money?

Russ wouldn't fit in damn near every coach's system. Tell me what system in this league the last ten years that Russ would fit in.

The system don't matter when it comes to Russ. You need a coach strong enough to get in his grill when he not doing what's in the best interest of the team. Right now, Billy D ain't in the right position to do it.

No middle man needed. Why you keep insisting on a middle man? Why not make the bet, and loser delivers the cash to winner? It's simple bro. Stop trying to finesse your way through. Ain't no man touching my money but me. But if I lose the bet, you're gonna have to trust me that I will honor it just like I will have to trust you that you will drive to Los Angeles to pay up when your Grizzlies lose 4-1 or 4-0. Man's bet, keep it old school, simple as that bruh.

Remember the subject of the PM you sent me? You wrote "Find a way and I'm down." Well I'm giving you a way, and now all I hear from you are excuses. You got til Game 3 tip off to make up your indecisive mind.

The system Harden is in right now.

And Billy D isn't doing a bad job. Especially when you have a shooting guard who is an average scorer, a small forward who can't shoot a three for his life,a mediocre front court, and a terrible bench, I honestly have no idea how the hell they made the playoffs when you really only got one man running the entire offense.

Let's just say Billy D decides to bench Russ for a little more because "he's being too selfish", who's going to run that offense? No one that's who. They would be losing by 40-50 every night if it weren't for Russ.

So are you saying that a team with Kanter, Adams, Oladipo, Roberson, and Gibson can't do any better than what they've done this year? I refuse to believe that.

Russ does a lot for his team, there's no question. But with a stronger coach who is able to control Russ a little bit more, OKC would do better. Not saying BillyD is doing a bad job, but he can certainly do much better if he he truly found ways to get Oladipo and Kanter more involved offensively. Kanter and Oladipo BOTH should be averaging 18-20 consistently hands down.

Exactly. 

I keep it old school. That's what you call "A Man's Wager."

Ball is in your court.

Game 3 is tomorrow night at 6:30. Sleep on it and get back to me. $1K or 2K, your choice. I say Grizzlies don't win two games. Loser drives to meet winner in winner's hometown. 

 

[friscostylez]

Where's your hometown.

Sounds like a fake bet & a cop out deal to me.

You still have no proof that you have 1k or 2k as of 4/20 tho.

Kanter and Oladipo BOTH should be averaging 18-20 consistently hands down.

Kanter is a huge defensive liability where giving him too many minutes would lead him to being a net negative and Oladipo can only average close to 18 by being an inefficient chucker (check his Magic numbers).

Even with a "HoF" caliber coach, this team would be a second round sweep at best. You're overrating the caliber of the current Thunder squad.

What's your hometown

Southern California. I already told you that. Don't act like you don't already know.

This Thunder squad is pretty talented bro. You're underestimating the makeup and balance of this team. They may not be the best defensively, but the Gibson acquisition was done to help improve their interior defense as a result of losing Ibaka. They have length, they have decent shooters, they have a defensive specialist in Roberson, and they have two bigs (aka legitimate CENTERS) that are better than what most playoff teams have. 

Russ is doing WAY TOO MUCH SCORING and is not doing a great job of making his teammates better in spite of his assist numbers. Instead of scoring 40-50 and dishing out 10 assists, the Thunder would be winning more games if he instead scored 25-30 BUT dished out 14-18 assists and placed more focus on locking down his man and found ways to get Oladipo 15-18 shots a game consistently. His teammates defer to him way too much just like Kobe's teammates in '05-07 deferred to him.

Your sarcasm precedes you, and it's clear you ain't ready to pay up because YOU KNOW THE GRIZZ AIN'T WINNIN TWO. Period.

The only proof being proven here is that you ain't the real deal holyfield. 

Stop talking and go take your 10 hundred dollar bills and go get you a pair of Frags.
