Phoenix has the more complete team and HC advantage. If they lose by any chance, it would be most likely that they threw it away.
perhaps so, but i think its more because holiday and middleton had greater usage and its a lot easier to get into rhythm when you have the ball in your hands more.... and now there was ante.... here again that is ball dominant and you need to incorporate him and lopezes role is again different....portis touches and opportunities also decreased and he was huge in be(r)ating hawks.... i bet you any money they look much better if jannis sits the next game....
Like most people said, they add Bogdanovic, either one of those 2 Bogdanovices, and it's a whole new ball game. Without giving up Jrue, Splash Mountain.
I’m impressed how well the Suns are dealing with their first Finals appearance. They’re so poised, that’s all leadership - coaching staff and CP3 - and preparation. Of course it helps to have the better team and for the Bucks not to be some juggernaut as their biggest challenge is probably behind them.
nice, i am also impressed how the game looked like a blowout long before it ended eventho the bucks were close but suns kept the poise and the win .. i never doubted the suns will win it even if the comeback was nearing at one point
it's people who were wrong about cp3 from day 1. casuals. and westbrick fans who like inefficient losers
easy to shut down a team best players when their best bench player ended up being Shump. Capela was forced to the bench. Rivers sucked that series. Nene was an old liability. nobody else was playable and one of the biggest reasons was LTS. They had the trade for temple and Jamychal Green who both would be immediate rotational players that Tilman backed out of for LTS. Both cp3 and Harden played well in game 6. Which typically bodes well. However outside of PJ, they got absolutely nothing from any of their rotational players, including gordon. Meanwhile like any good team, GS has guys that came off the bench and stepped up as rotational players. Something the rockets stopped having after the 17-18 season. Shuffling guys like melo, Ennis, Shumpert, Knight, Chriss and that's supposed to be a contending supporting cast. Flat out embarrassing This suns team has depth. guys who have stepped up in different moments. Rockets had 0 depth. they brought in a bunch of cheap scrubs on the edge of being out of the league for LTS and wanted to act like these guys should be your supporting cast. Absolutely pathetic.
“Space the floor and let him orchestrate.” … “Allow yourself to be led.” James: You can’t even beat your man! Shut up and listen watch!
Because the Rockets didn't run the pace and ball movement offense CP3 thrives in. Harden and CP3 were simply incompatible. They made it kinda work for one year because of sheer talent, but they both got annoyed with each other by the end of Year 2 and it was evident in their play and their yelling at each other. The two players simply needed different systems to thrive.
These quotes summarize why Harden/CP3 was never going to work. The Rockets' offense was about maximizing Harden's effectiveness. CP3's offense is about maximizing everyone else.
Isn't the Chris Paul story that he blows the series. Seems like everything is right on script. When it gets tough Paul fumbles. But super demoralizing for the Bucks to be completely outplayed like that, even when you had your MVP out there. They need to regroup fast.
lol I love CP but the kid is not old enough or experienced enough to make that claim. Hyperboles makes great headlines.
he has plenty of say to make that claim where it's his opinion. Especially when he's part of that 1%.
