    I think it was during the ABC coverage during a game these Finals. And probably discussed in the booth.

    And you gotta love tough little guy Van Gundy cracking on Miami players for nor bringing it more physically and tougher. Ignoring size completely. Moron.

    I can live with that because he isn't Chris Webber.

    Bam Adebayo is the definition of overrated.

    Danny Green has entered the chat, "hold my beer Bam."

    Guys like Green and KCP are just inconsistent. They're good one year and bad the next.
    When they're playing bad, they're considered to be overpaid or underperforming (ie KCP last year)
    No one's going to confuse them for a Top 5 player like AD though..

    "Who would you rather build around? ----- Lebron James or Danny Green?" LOL

    I wouldn't say he's overrated but these days for some reason, we inflate talent. We use the word GREAT for anyone who has a good series or a good week of play. I mean, if Bam is so good, why did a 16 year vet make him look like a rag doll when he was trying to play tough guy?

    I actually think Bam is great but unfortunately for him AD is just on another level. Bam isn't David Robinson but I think it's similar the Admiral vs Hakeem. The Admiral was an all time great yet Hakeem was just on another level then him.

    Outside of AD not many bigs you'd want in this era of small ball then Bam. (the one big you'd want is of course AD)

    Bam is good. He is not great.

    Not a KD fan. Damn right it’s gonna be entertaining watching him and Kyrie the clown together. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Nets becoming the Slippers of the East.

    both are now dealing with injuries that may make them not what they were

    And both are openly disrespecting their coach saying they will coach part time.

    Should be great content for the NY media

    AD needs an alpha pushing him, at all times.

    15/5 isn't going to get it done. There went Finals MVP bro.

    We all saw he could be soft, but the real test is how he reacts to this next game. EVERY player has holes in their game, but he just got exposed big time.

    The coaching staff will have to help put him in position to be successful as well, but you shouldn't have to cater to your superstars. They need to be able to go get their own and dare the opposition to stop them.
