    7/32 from three and shooting 38% overall…embarrassing as hell

    Agreed. I think this was Udoka and Stones master plan. Get an elite scorer, surround him with a bunch of defenders and then lean on that scorer when the game is on the line. What could go wrong?

    I'm surprised that the rim is still orange at this point after all the paint chipping shots

    And you have one of the slowest learning curves/reading comprehension on this site. Maybe reed the rest of the posts I've made in this game thread as well as the other ones. Its been fairly consistent.

    I've made those points over and over, in fact since this is a message board you can probably look them up too. A couple of posts earlier I literally stated that nobody cares if Reed misses, but if he can't take open shots there is no defending him. Reed has been passing up open shots many games. He has been a Durant dispenser looking ot just dish the ball as soon as he gets up. He has been looking to pass before looking for a shot. These are all criticisms everyone including me has made. I truly believed Ime was responsible for a lot of it with the short leash but unlike you I allow the larger and larger sample size to provide evidence and objective data.

    You need to stop being such a puss and take off the blinders. If you're getting made at me for criticizing sheppard you are delusional.

    Kicking your legs out to try and get a foul should be a technical.

    only amen and aaron can drive to the bucket

    too bad they gotta pass the ball to KD tho

    this is why amen needs to go rogue and i won't blame him for it.
