Kobes the best tough jump shot maker I've ever seen. Kyrie might be the best tough layup maker I've ever seen. Am I wrong?
No, he makes insane layups. When he gets to the hoop I'm surprised if they DON'T go in. I'm sure there are others that we could come up with that are on his level, but not better.
Finally a good playoff game. This was the Cavs best chance of winning A game this series. I've been mad with KD all season long but man this is some sweet goodness watching LeStatSheetStuffer crumble. What's annoying is everyone will be pointing at the box score, "look at his crazy numbers!" "he has no help!", well isn't he suppose to make his teammates better? Aren't the great ones suppose to find a way? Dude hasn't shown up in the 4th and sounds defeated already.
Durant's getting a chance to exorcise all the comments about him getting owned by Lebron throughout his career. It's beautiful to watch.
I'm sure bigger more athletic guys like MJ made ridiculously difficult layups look easy. It's just that kyries look by far the most circusy.
Great game finally... Cavs missed a lot of corner 3 , this is the game right there ... along with the confusion after the KD go ahead basket . I think you take a timeout to have a clear idea of what you have to do in the 2 for 1 situation ... Horrible possession by Kyrie , then Love doesn' foul Green , then Lebron bad decision to go to the corner to receive a pass ... No Korver and no Frye on the floor down 3 ? Meh
ugh, looks like our record will be no more pretty soon also, kyrie is absolutely unreal when it comes to making contested layups. i haven't seen a smaller player do that since AI, and i'd say kyrie is better at it than AI was
Agreed about Kyrie. For all his greatness with scoring, his defense and ability to run the team leaves a lot to be desired. Screwing up that 2 for 1 at the end and doing a step back 3 down 1 was a big mistake. Overall, the biggest mistake the Cavs made was not giving Kyrie and Lebron more rest before the 4th. Both of them looked gassed out at the end and that might have explained the passive style they played with (in addition to the Warriors playing tighter defense). It's crazy that Lebron played 46 minutes and had a +/- of +7.
Yep ... and/or Kyrie has the " a GW has to be pretty" syndrome ... should have attacked the rim , had the space to do so and his long ball was off . You can't ruin a great effort in the Finals by taking a rookie type decision , you just can't ... Lue is responsible too
