Lebron should start diving in for those boards. I remember when T-Mac would get fed up with our bigs not rebounding and just grab everything himself.

The greatest

 

[Basileus777]

Boozer would have been a better fit in Miami and Bosh would have been a better fit in Chicago. Neither of them rebound, but their styles are better suited for opposite teams.

Bosh dreams he could rebound like Boozer. There's a 5% TRB difference between them.

 

[GaimeGuy]

He will not be as good as Hibbert or West this series...

Duncan to have a 50 PER in the finals

 

[PBY]

I know they're only down 4 but when you look at process vs. result, Indiana has thoroughly bitchslapped Miami around in the process.

The only real fact is that Miami HAS to play better. So far I have been shown zero signs they will. I've been waiting on a FU game from LeBron...instead, he seems rather insistent on getting everyone else going. That's fine, but if this continues I hope he assesses the situation right and doesn't let anyone else touch the ball unless they are wide open.

This is a great, GREAT post.

 

[linsivvi]

Eh, Pacers have 2 physical scoring bigs and big guards. Spurs have one scoring big and he's not very efficient. Add in all the little guys they play and Miami will have a much easier time with them

Spurs have one scoring big and he's not very efficient.

Ok.

Not just that, San Antonio's passing is infinitely better than Indy's

Tim Duncan and Splitter can also make point blank lay ups.

wat

He was faced against much better bigs in Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph than whatever the hell the Heat are throwing at Roy Hibbert. He'd have a field day.

Yeah but LeBron or the 3pt shooters could get hot (If Spoelstra stops this fuckery and plays some shooters)

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Who the fuck?!

Oh man I read Karl Malone and got so excited. That would've been amazing to watch.

 

[ph33nix]

He probably won't be as good as Hibbert (seriously, how many dudes can say that right now) but it's Tim fucking Duncan. Even with the size advantage everyone is surprised by Hibbert's sudden swag and touch

only thing is duncan probably can't have as much usage

Tim Duncan and Splitter can also make point blank lay ups.

why you gotta twist the knife bro

Duncan had 1 good offensive game that series though..

 

[reilo]

Perfect.

 

[Fjordson]

Supposedly Mike Malone is a very solid coach and was a big help in the Warriors improvement this year. Big X's and O's guy.


As a W's fan, I'm a little worried for Mark Jackson with Malone gone, but congrats to him.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Perfect.

10/10.

Fuck the HGHeat.

Last 3 games versus Memphis: http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/d/duncati01/gamelog/2013/#202-204-sum:pgl_basic_playoffs

18.7PPG, 50FG%, 3APG

You're factually wrong. And Marc Gasol is infinitely a better defender than Bosh and whoever else the Heat have.

 

[obijkenobi]

Duncan had 1 good offensive game that series though..

Duncan spent a lot of his energy shutting down Zbo. And then had Gasol playing defense on him on the other end.

 

[Vic]

LeBron looks stressed.

 

[reilo]

He's absolutely wrong. Duncan had 3 straight really good offensive games to close out that series.

18.7PPG on 50FG% with 3APG.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Duncan would have more problems against Indiana that Miami. He's going to be a monster in the finals, either way.

Oh, I'm not agreeing with him about Duncan only having one good game on offense that series. I'm just saying the dude played amazing defense on Gasol/Zbo and still put up good numbers on offense. It helps that he has players around him that could make 3 pointers and Parker is taking the next step on offense.

 

[ItWasMeantToBe19]

Great hire by the Kings.

 

[Syphon Filter]

vogel ftw!

 

[ThisWreckage]

Exactly. If Miami wanted a PF that can hit mid range jumpers and occasionally play in the post then Boozer was a better fit. At least they wouldn't be using Boozer as a spot up three point shooter.

 

[Geneijin]

Will and determination.

I guess I'm spoiled by Kobe's greatness. Anything under 25 in a playoff game isn't "really good" IMO ^_^

Hibbert pump faking LeBron and Haslem into oblivion.

When is a Pacers series ever fun.

They made rolling over a Dwightless Magic seem like a Pitt/Georgetown scrimmage

 

[aronnov reborn]

pity call for the heat. i dont blame them. feeling kind of bad for em'.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Especially pertinent tonight:

Fuck former child pornography suspect (HE WAS CLEARED!) Harvey Birdman and his douchey tattoos, X-Games circa '95 mohawk, and pseudo tough guy attitude. Buddy, they aren't cheering "Kaw Kaw!" They're cheering "Caca!" as in pure shit, which you are.

You and Miami deserve each other.

 

[reilo]

Wade made gave zero honest effort to try and make that basket, he went straight for the FTA.

 

[Cloudy]

Looks like Heat are ready to start jumping into defenders for fts

glen davis put da team on his back while ryan anderson shat his pants tho

yes more of that lebron

 

[CrazyDogg77]

Man I love how Hibbert actually looks like he's having fun out there.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

How is Wade doing?

 

[linsivvi]

Duncan went against Pau/Dwight, resurrected Bogut, then Marc/Zbo.

He'll have a field day against Bosh or whoever the Heat throw at him.

Kobe averaged zero these playoffs. It was still his best showing since 2010.

 

[ph33nix]

This is a great, GREAT post.

from one NYU violet to the next

I am fucking embarrassed by my alma mater's nickname

 

[duxstar]

the Pacers offense I think consist of "miss basket hope Hibbert gets it"

 

[PBY]

"urgency and desperation"

smh.
