d30ebw6	t1_d30cdrh	t3_4ipwo0	nba	imthegenius	the hockey assists are definitely because of his efficiency... but shouldn't be held against him for taking advantage of them. He's still top 10 in assists despite defenses having to play him that way. I don't think it's fair to say he's just "pretty good" at passing... go back and watch some of his assist highlights, the guy has amazing court vision, and the coordination that lets him make 3s and layups more efficiently than anyone in the game doesn't hurt his passing ability. Totally agreed that Lebron has been the king of getting teammates involved, and it's always pissed me off when people give him shit for passing/not having that killer instinct... I think the difference, this year especially, has been the timeliness of when Steph chooses to get his team involved vs. take over himself. I think Westbrook in particular, sometimes chases stats to the detriment of his team, and I think it's a little unfair to label Curry as a one trick pony.	false	medium	42,981,883

I am sure the Kings rolled out the red carpet and showed them how much they wanted him to be ve apart of the org. I'm sure that felt good to him, no matter what org he works for.

d30e7m8	t3_4iqauk	t3_4iqauk	nba	jphamlore	In my opinion, the Thunder not having won a championship is solely due to management's apparent inability to hire a head coach who can get the entire team to buy into a good defensive system. Golden State started their championship run precisely when they developed a defense that people could describe with a straight face as a candidate for best in the league. The Thunder have height and athleticism at almost every position. There is no excuse for them to not be defensive terrors, especially in the post-Shaq era.	false	low	42,981,925

d30e72f	t1_d30e1if	t3_4ir036	nba	richp1180	That's my thing. Any other player who's been considered the "Best in the game" started out clearly in a linear path towards becoming the best in the game, except Steph. Since I've never seen anything like it, and I see his shooting percentage #s aren't that significantly better than they were from what he started at, what else is it?

Also, he's not a fucking Saiyan that transformed to Super-Saiyan 4, he's the same dude, he is just more aggressive. He's always been an offensive monster, just watch his college days.

d30e5mb	t3_4ir1c4	t3_4ir1c4	nba	Umbricon	Here are some thoughts I have after watching the previous games. * I think Pop is gonna look to solve the defensive threat of Steven Adams. He's my X-factor for the Thunder this series, and I think if they somehow manage to stun the Spurs and win the series, he'd have played a big part in their series win. * Building off that point, I think Pop will try to isolate Adams and attack the weak side, or try and get him in foul trouble. I don't think he plays Aldridge at the 5 on a regular basis, but it'd be interested to see if he tries that to get Adams away from the basket. * For the Thunder, I would hope that they do put Adams on Aldridge more, at least to try and stop him from taking over. * I like Kawhi on Russ for the Spurs. The biggest secret about the Thunder is the fact that Durant struggles to abuse bad matchups. We put Chris Paul on him in 2014 and he failed to take advantage, and it's mainly his lack of post game. Meanwhile, Kawhi is the perfect type of player to bring out the Worstbrook. * A lot has been said about Westbrook being too aggressive on the glass, but more importantly for OKC is getting Kawhi off him, because the Spurs' weak links on defense is their undersized point guards, and Westbrook's underrated post game can give them nightmares if they find a way to provide that opening. * Speaking of abusing post matchups, I hope Billy Donovan calls some plays for Kanter on the block, especially when the Spurs' bench bigs are in. West and Diaw are decent enough defenders, but Kanter's size and soft touch can be the difference between a dismal bench performance and a game-changing run. In any case, I'm loving the series so far, and I can't wait for tonight's game.	false	low	42,981,946

If anything, they don't think they're even the slightest bit weird -- they think they're the fucking shit while everyone else sort of goes out of their way to avoid them. I'd tell you to start with Season 1, but that's before Frank (Danny DeVito) enters the picture. I don't know, I think it's definitely worth a shot.

the hockey assists are definitely because of his efficiency... but shouldn't be held against him for taking advantage of them. He's still top 10 in assists despite defenses having to play him that way. I don't think it's fair to say he's just "pretty good" at passing... go back and watch some of his assist highlights, the guy has amazing court vision, and the coordination that lets him make 3s and layups more efficiently than anyone in the game doesn't hurt his passing ability. Totally agreed that Lebron has been the king of getting teammates involved, and it's always pissed me off when people give him shit for passing/not having that killer instinct... I think the difference, this year especially, has been the timeliness of when Steph chooses to get his team involved vs. take over himself. I think Westbrook in particular, sometimes chases stats to the detriment of his team, and I think it's a little unfair to label Curry as a one trick pony.

I think he had a lot of issues with the Grizzlies management, and never felt appreciated there. I am sure the Kings rolled out the red carpet and showed them how much they wanted him to be ve apart of the org. I'm sure that felt good to him, no matter what org he works for. Using "humbled" in this way means that he almost feels undeserving of how the Kings org has treated him through the process and being ao coveted.

Of course not, what he meant was the voters are a joke. Lebron will never get an unanimous vote because he is the NBA's villain, and some of these voters (if you go look up the years Lebron won) clearly would vote for anyone but Lebron. Curry on the other hand is beloved by all, both the fans and media, NBA's golden boy. Can't take that away from him, it takes both skills and charisma (and not doing that one stupid shit on television) to pull this off.

In my opinion, the Thunder not having won a championship is solely due to management's apparent inability to hire a head coach who can get the entire team to buy into a good defensive system. Golden State started their championship run precisely when they developed a defense that people could describe with a straight face as a candidate for best in the league. The Thunder have height and athleticism at almost every position. There is no excuse for them to not be defensive terrors, especially in the post-Shaq era.

That's my thing. Any other player who's been considered the "Best in the game" started out clearly in a linear path towards becoming the best in the game, except Steph.

I am not trying to argue against Steph, rather I am trying to wrap my head around how he got to where he is in years 6 and 7 without showing the flashes of this consistently in years 1-5

He was INJURED his first few years playing with Monte fucking Ellis!

Also, he's not a fucking Saiyan that transformed to Super-Saiyan 4, he's the same dude, he is just more aggressive. He's always been an offensive monster, just watch his college days. The difference is durability first, aggression second, and his amazing team third.

Umbricon

Here are some thoughts I have after watching the previous games. * I think Pop is gonna look to solve the defensive threat of Steven Adams. He's my X-factor for the Thunder this series, and I think if they somehow manage to stun the Spurs and win the series, he'd have played a big part in their series win. * Building off that point, I think Pop will try to isolate Adams and attack the weak side, or try and get him in foul trouble. I don't think he plays Aldridge at the 5 on a regular basis, but it'd be interested to see if he tries that to get Adams away from the basket. * For the Thunder, I would hope that they do put Adams on Aldridge more, at least to try and stop him from taking over. * I like Kawhi on Russ for the Spurs. The biggest secret about the Thunder is the fact that Durant struggles to abuse bad matchups. We put Chris Paul on him in 2014 and he failed to take advantage, and it's mainly his lack of post game. Meanwhile, Kawhi is the perfect type of player to bring out the Worstbrook. * A lot has been said about Westbrook being too aggressive on the glass, but more importantly for OKC is getting Kawhi off him, because the Spurs' weak links on defense is their undersized point guards, and Westbrook's underrated post game can give them nightmares if they find a way to provide that opening. * Speaking of abusing post matchups, I hope Billy Donovan calls some plays for Kanter on the block, especially when the Spurs' bench bigs are in. West and Diaw are decent enough defenders, but Kanter's size and soft touch can be the difference between a dismal bench performance and a game-changing run. In any case, I'm loving the series so far, and I can't wait for tonight's game.

MJ is a complete addict. Full of resent and insatiable drive. It was how he internalized those "perceived" slights that fueled his fire. Does that clear it up for you?

You're telling me to "stop giving false narratives" when you're making them yourself. This whole voting 100% thing is a non-issue when you think it is. Not even [Griffey](http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/14517514/ken-griffey-jr-mike-piazza-voted-cooperstown-baseball-hall-famers) cares. I don't understand why you're so mad over this.

Man.... this Heat team would be the best team in the NBA 5 years ago. You could argue that all of these players in their prime would be better than any of the LeBron-Wade-Bosh teams.

Someone else could probably explain this better than I can, but I'll give it a shot. At one point, I was kind of like you. I'd watch it for an episode or two and got tired of the shtick I guess. Lots of yelling, sort of dumb humor sometimes, but I came around big time. All the main characters are over-the-top narcissistic and brutally honest with each other at all times. Lots of drinking, pranks, vulgarity, etc., so if that's not your thing, I wouldn't bother. But man, Howerton and McElhenney (Dennis and Mac) write the show and they just do an excellent job of encapsulating how fucking weird The Gang is but also how they have no earthly idea of it. If anything, they don't think they're even the slightest bit weird -- they think they're the fucking shit while everyone else sort of goes out of their way to avoid them. I'd tell you to start with Season 1, but that's before Frank (Danny DeVito) enters the picture. I don't know, I think it's definitely worth a shot. I'd give it a few seasons to come around on you if you ever decided it was worth your time. But as someone who also watched HIMYM, in my opinion, it's a million times better than that show.
