Remember how Lebron said he’s not going to throw his teammates under the bus?

Kevin Love is a 5 time all star playing like an absolute scrub (shooting 32% in the series). That's nothing compared to what he deserves for his performance in this series.

They run an awful offense, their best players don't show up in the clutch and don't even bother to play hard most of the time. Otto Porter, one of the best wing players in the league potentially, isn't utilized properly whatsoever. They should be winning 50 games a season with that collection of talent but have never once done so. It was embarrassing for this version of the Raptors to even lose 2 games to that team (and they're a relative joke too with a one-way "franchise player" Kobe-wannabe who doesn't even bother to play defense himself). |

Pippen's restricted effectiveness touched every part of the Bulls' strategy, from rebounding to defense, from offense to Jordan. Without Pippen, Jordan was left to fight the fatigue of this long series and long playoff run. Somehow, he made up the void. Jordan stripped the ball from Karl Malone with 18.9 seconds left, then hit the game-winning shot with 5.2 seconds left to give the Bulls the title. Pippen had a cortisone shot Saturday and felt some relief from the pain that crept up on him after taking five charges in Game 3. The discomfort may have had something to do with a 2-of-16 performance in Game 4, an effort that belied a series effort that had many proclaiming him the most valuable player. https://www.nytimes.com/1998/06/15/s...test-feat.html Last edited by New World Order; 04-28-2018 at 01:09 AM.. |

Haha **** you Russ. OKC had 3 MVP’s on their team and looks like they kept the wrong one. Should have traded Russ and kept KD and Harden and they probably would have won a couple of Finals by now.
Also not surprising that Oladipo played like shit next to the ultimate pos ball hog |

Was OKC the at least the third best team in the West with their talent this year?

I don't think that happens this year, but I could be wrong. IMO, it's more likely that Cleveland soon will be in the same place the Wizards are now, and Lebron will be planning his way OUT of Cleveland - Again.

And Oladipo is better this year because he has a good coach and because he worked out like crazy this off season (partly motivated by seeing Westbrook work ethic). But yeah, how exactly did Westbrook cause Carmelo to play like shit this series/season? PG had a couple good games, but it's Westbrook fault he went 2-16 in a elimination game?
