Difference being Roberson was playing all world defense, Anderson was doing his best traffic cone imitation

No losing "points "
Everyone else just know you B made
Why hate on others success who has the same goals as you in life?
No one is saying be "fake"
In the UFC and boxing mans that actually try to kill each other don't even act b made like that

PG13 would be a great fit in Washington. He can play the 3 in place of Otto.

Harden shot 41% for the series 24% from 3 with 6 turnovers a game as well, but narratives.
Russ was 39% for the series 27% from 3 with 6 turnovers a game.

Yup save that gwuop for paying Otto and allocate it towards PG salary. I just thought of this a few days ago and pissed myself off

Agreed.
I love "**** it" take over basketball.
I also enjoy team basketball when it's good.

They're the type to argue every foul call in pickup games for 30 minutes at a time and take their ball that everybody is playing with home with them after they lose. They also lead their local rec leagues in technical fouls.

I feel you. At least your honest.
Does not playing defense fall into "playing hard" and "intensity though"?
Because Russ completely ignores the other side of the ball....but he "plays hard" and is "intense"....

but why though? why do you have to? we arent buddies. we are competitors. that's the issue with sports now. everybody is buddy buddy. 'good game. good shooting. great block you just had on me. thanks for kicking our ***' f all that. it has nothing to do with being mature. Losing gracefully is still losing. I thought we only played sports to win? is there another reason to compete besides winning?

Yeah everyone has their own style. Now that all the big men are gone I find myself liking the guys with that smooth, "effortless" style. James Harden or KD, used to be a big Ray Allen fan. A lot of people feel like those guys don't show enough emotion/intensity though.

They don't have to be mutually exclusive. He played poor down the stretch of games AND his teammates were hapless without him.
The narrative didn't change from how it was all year. He had to average a triple double just for the games to be competitive in this series. Just as was the case the entire season, he just wasn't able to close like he'd done so well during the season.

At the end of the day...a 3 seed beat a 6 seed.
That was supposed to happen.
