Miami's kryptonite - Any team with legit centers. Vucevic single handedly destroyed them a couple times last year. OKC and SAS need to find some.
It's the exact same thing as a flop. 90% of the time when players flop, they are hit, and they flail to make sure the refs call the foul. Now sometimes there is no contact and it looks really bad, but those are less frequent. It's no different han the offensive flailing... players drive to the hoop and throw their arms around, yell, whatever, to get the call. It's not basketball. Just try to put the ball in the hoop and trust the ref to make the right call. I wish they'd just give Ts in-game for all of this ****.
Duncan is a legitimate C, and so are Hibbard and Noah. Miami has had no problem with these teams the last few years.
These Kings remind me of the Thunder from a few years ago, before they got over the hump. They are stacked with talent and just need to come together. Hope they win this game!
Spurs should try to trade for Greg Monroe, maybe a Kawhi Leonard+Danny Green for Greg Monroe+Pick trade
No. They started losing all these games when they lost Iggy. Let him comeback and see if the trend continues. Hopefully we don't play them with a healthy iggy because iggy owns harden and causes a lot of problem for Harden with his length and strength.
Pretty sure Pop is counting on Leonard to be the future. I like what Detroit is doing with their twin towers too. Both teams say no.
hmmm. I thought the Pistons would be the one to say no, Leonard has not met expectations this year. Spurs need a big man to replace Tim Duncan and small forwards like Leonard are a dime a dozen. Pistons might do it, just to improve spacing and moving Josh Smith to the 4.
Leonard isn't a dime a dozen. He's a very skilled player and one of the best defenders in the league. But the Pistons would definitely say no as Monroe is their cornerstone.
