And what about Wade? You can't just ignore all the foul calls he is getting. Some player are just good at getting calls. It's an acquired skill.
that was probably the best half durant has ever played. i think he had one layup and went 8-10 and showed court vision like few times before, although the heat should probably change the D from "leave the big man wide open underneath the hoop at all costs" because that's kind of stupid. for some reason the heat have these stretches where they overtrap the crap out of the ball and seemingly will leave anyone open that they have to just to trap. hey, spoelstra, layups are bad for your D. try just playing some straight up D for a while.
Yup, Heat is overplaying the over helping the perimeter, how the hell did Perkins and Ibaka get soooooooo damn open.
That was the best Durant can play. Shot lights out, make plays like he's the best PG on the planet, and played great D. If he could make plays like that, he could be on par with LBJ.
Probably can never reach Lebron's passing and defense, but will probably be a way better and versatile scorer
field goal attempts per free throw attempts this season: wade 2.82 durant 2.57 lebron 2.24 harden 1.71 he's at about the ratio kevin martin had at the peak of his powers and even martin is down to 3.00 with the new foul rules. the guy could stand to go 3 or 4 seconds without a call every once in a while.

Durant is a better shooter that's for sure. But with LBJ's improving post game, it will be debatable if LBJ keeps shooting 53-55% for the rest of his career. But Durant scores so effortlessly that it reminds me of TMAC. Such a beauty to watch him stroke jumpers with ease.
If Joe Johnson can produce like this every night, he would deserve his contract. Too bad this type of production requires 2-3 OTs for him LOL.
Spo is such a bad coach. He can't see that in a game like this, you can't afford to play Joel Anthony extended minutes b/c he can't even catch the ball cleanly.
