Draymond is both underrated and overrated at the same time, right now, in this thread.

He's a great two way player. He's being rated correctly by most analysts.
Only on NT where most cats think McGrady was underrated when you got experts calling McGrady overrated given his scoring output yet lack of success.
 
Steve Jax is a hater. I saw him literally the day after the Cavs won the title last year and asked him what he though of Lebron. He smiled and said "he aight" :lol: Jax is cool though, I run into him about twice a month.

I don't see how dudes don't like Bron. Dude is an all time great athlete. He isn't out here getting duis, getting arrested for hitting women, shooting himself, raping women, committing adultery and getting caught, he is socially conscious, and gives back to marginalized populations.
just cause someone is a great player doesn't mean people have to like them. Just like in anything. People you root for and people you root against. I dislike LeBron like crazy but it's just basketball. Nothing personal. It's part of Fandom and I don't care if he is a good person or not. Outside of the NBA , his life and how he chooses to live is irrelevant to me.

You've never seen Stephen Jackson before? I dont have any pics with him but I've rambled on NT countless times about where I work and how I get a chance to meet so many people. I also mentioned how I talked to Dr. J last week and asked who he had in the finals. He said the Cavs.
 
Good points made

Word if they don't bow to the throne they wack. A lot of these semi contemporaries ain't buying the hype. Good to see honestly.

I don't understand this. They still lost two more games after game 5 with draymond :lol:

But somehow ppl discount the love and kyrie injury in 2015.
I hate this argument. Yes, Cavs won games 6 and 7 once Dray came back, but the team he can back to was not the same team pre game 5. Iggy was clearly playing hurt, as his back was flaring up. Also, with no Bogut, Dubs were unable to set the tone, allowing Bron and and Kyrie to attack the paint at will, which led to them getting in their zone, leading to 40 point games for each of them.

Tbh, the real X factor will be Tristan Thompson. His ability to keep possessions alive is extremely valuable. Last year, in the later half of the series, the Warriors could really only throw Varejao's flopping self, and Ezeli, neither of which were effective against Thompson to warrant a lot of playing time, leading him to get vital offensive rebounds. This year, they have McGee, Zaza, and West, all big bodies who can focus exclusively on boxing TT out and hoping someone else on the Warriors gets the rebounds. Of course, I expect Lebron to also bang down there.


I've stated this before, but all I hope for is for the refs not to call ticky tack fouls against KD or Curry in the first quarter, effectively taking them out of the beginning of the game and affecting they play as true game goes on. This has happened in both the 2012 and 2016 Finals. It irks me. They got called for BS fouls in the finals that they were not called in AT ALL in previous rounds. Tbh the foul situation was a big factor for Currys play in game 6 last year.

I expect 2 early fouls and a few technicals from Dray tho.


And lol at some people still slandering Kobe. Dude must've hurt them real bad.
 
I mean you got people in here slandering Kobe in a Finals thread in 2017 also
