One thing I've always liked about that 2018 ECF Game 7 between the Cavaliers and Celtics, is that BEFORE the game started LeBron said "I'm not sitting down at all during this game. I'm staying on the court the ENTIRE time". Then LeBron ACTUALLY ended up playing all 48 minutes and the Cavaliers ended up winning by 8. LeBron would have been DEVESTATED if he lost that game.

The Celtics getting rid of Kyrie was the best thing to happen to them. It allowed Tatum and Brown to flourish. The Grant Hill trade did as well with Ben Wallace. Him getting traded to Detroit caused him to become a formidable defensive force and he was the defensive anchor of Detroit during the early 2000’s. As for Hill if it wasn’t for the injuries, he could’ve lasted a lot longer in Orlando.

Everyone on that starting squad had a chip on their shoulder from getting overlooked and bought into what Larry Brown was trying to build.

Grant Hill is a little unfair, his best co-star during the 90s was old Joe Dumars and that ankle injury ruined any chance the Magic had to become anything. If he had stayed healthy and there still was a way to pair him with Ben Wallace in Detroit, that team might have had the extra scoring punch needed to be a full fledge dynasty.

Oh that's right, in fact I think it happened twice with him. Traded from the Nets to Suns for Jason Kidd. Nets make back to back NBA Finals appearances. Traded from the Suns to Knicks mainly to make offseason moves to sign Steve Nash. Suns become perennial playoff contenders, become the best offensive team in the 2005 season and Steve Nash wins back to back MVPs. Stephon Marbury while an entertaining and skilled player in his own right, never elevated his teams to compete in a playoff level.

The Bucks got better without Jabari Parker. I know this doesn’t seem like the best example but remember he was averaging just over 20 points for a team that was 22-30 in 2016-17. The same game Khris Middleton came back from a hamstring injury, Parker went down with another knee injury. However, the Bucks finished that season 20-10 with Giannis and Middleton and played a tough first round series against the Raptors. The next year, it was clear that the knee injuries were going to prevent Parker from ever reaching his full potential. That being said, the 2016-17 season proved the Bucks were a better team without Parker and he wasn’t going to be part of their future plans.

just like any skill, you need iso players as well as ball movement. when defenses clamp down, that ball doesnt' move so well any more. that's when you need your iso players to step up and punish the otehr team. going full ball movement isn't good either cause then the ball gets forced into the hands of players that have no business shooting over some one who shoots 45% from 3. and a ball that is constantly in the air is easy pickings for steals.

The coming-out party of Zach Randolph? So we’re just going to completely forget about his stint in Portland.

Demar should be number one easily because the raps won the chip right after he got traded. That should be a low blow to any players ego.

Thunder vs Rockets I actually wanted OKC to win, because it would have been funny. Rather than fizzle out the end of his career on a lottery team, Chris Paul and the OKC making the playoffs and beating the team that just traded him and the player they traded him for while OKC beat the player that just left and the team he left them for, would have been funny.

9 outta 10 teams will play better as a team that moves the ball, plays unselfishly, doesn't rely on just one guy. And I don't even have to give examples, you all already know, and can also go look up and prove this with teams of the past

@theghostofthomasjenkins9643 28 дней назад
you want ball movement, but also want those players who can create without it. you need to be able to step up once the other team slows that ball down. those warrior teams moved the ball, but they could rely on steph and klay to take over if the ball can't move as much.

I think in the regular season, the raptors were clearly better WITH Demar than without him. But in the playoffs, he would regularly wet the bed and I felt many times the raptors played better without him because if he wasn't making shots, he was a huge defensive liability and blackhole offensively. He was very inefficient in the playoffs. But obviously you can't just bench your franchise player. Love Demar though, and so does the whole raptors fanbase, he's been nothing less than a professional despite all the criticism he got. Unfortunately the legacy of that era was being crushed by Lebron and underachieving by losing against the Nets and the Wizards as well. However, making the conference finals at the time was a huge accomplishment in Raptors history.
