    or Faried.

    they're good regular season depth but they can't play against the warriors in the WCF.

    this is where we REALLY miss ariza and luc out there instead of shumpert and Faried.

    Hartenstein and Clark were awesome the last time we played them at home. Of course, neither will play a single minute this game because...

    Faried getting dominated by looney on the glass and Curry’s drives. For all the optimism of dominating cousins on offense our own defense still got a long way to go.

    I remember one specific interview with Morey on TV. The host said "you gave up a first for Shumpert." And Morey was just like "Yeah..." and that's literally all he said. Like he knows he screwed up (or he was forced into it by Tilman or something).

    We literally played those last 3 minutes with Faried surrounded by 4 small guards.

    And you wonder why we get outrebounded. Come on.

    Like 99% of these post lack perspective.

    WARRIORS ARE TRYING TO MAKE A STATEMENT

    Lol jesus like these the dynasty boys and we gave em something to prove. The rockets built a brick house and they’re down by 10. It’s gonna be ok geez

    Agreed. Dont feel like its coming in rythm. It actually feels like hes taking a tougher shot then he could have 2 seconds earlier

    At this point i don't really know if Shump is just bad or if he needs some time, but it's like he's not fitting as well as expected so far, he takes some bad shots, forces some passes...maybe he just joined the team too late to adapt, i don't know...

    It will be their demise

    Shumpert and Faried are killing us out there. Dumb fouls, no boxouts, terrible positioning, funneling guys to an uncontested rim. Worst ball we've played in 2019.

    they're trying to get Steph to switch out but the warriors are doing a good job of hiding him. at some point the shot clock winds down and you gotta go for it.

    Harden might lose MVP based on stats.

    Efficiency is dropping and he's got a good excuse, but will frauds (media/public) recognize ??

    My bad... Bucks' record is already fraud, yet nobody mentions that... so fraudulence already displayed.
