that "horrible defender" has 7 steals
They down his one on one but never give credit to his passing lane or help play -
Lol Clippers had a soul 2 soul moment

I'm calling it now. The Knicks front office will make a major trade before February because of THIS loss tonight against the Cavs. They're an average team at best who cant compete with the NBA elite at all.
This was also bad coaching on Hoarneceaks part. If you see your team is getting beat in transition and unable to get a defensive stop. You should work the shot clock down, and draw plays for high percentage shots or draw fouls. Not go shot for shot with a team that's wayyyy better than you.
And I'm embarrassed for the Knicks, to let Lebron James come into your arena every year and violate you with out hard fouling/try to hurt him. The Knicks need a tough guy. ? not even a Draymond Green would allow this.
For my walking Dead fans
Knicks= Rick Cavs=Negan -

Unless they are trading for Lebron, they won't have a squad that can compete with the Cavs.
Cavs= the ? Knicks = ? -

Clippers got sonned. If the warriors lost this bad it would be a bunch of post about their lack of size step curry defense yada yada ya.
Clippers still got the same issue at SF. Ba Moute shouldn't be a starter. They gotta trade somebody either jj reddick jamal crawford or austin -

Nope they added Brandon Bass and Raymond Felton, they're contenders and the rest of the league is playing catch up -
When Brandon bass goes off for 11 and 7 victory is imminent

i said this before, but he has finally accepted his role as a catch and shoot player
he was determined to try and still be the focal point of the offense last season.
good to see him playing well though. Just wished he would've accepted his role a season or two sooner -

well last season in NOLA, was iirc, the most games he had played since being there, so...im too lazy to research it though, but just going off the eyeball test, i remember him playing more games than previous years -
Ahhh I'm just saying the proof is in the pudding. Y'all gonna sabotage y'allselves with AD if y'all don't do something about that staff

That and he also looks a lot slimmer than he did in New Orleans too which Im sure plays a big factor as well. Hes been outstanding on offense but I've really been impressed with his defense, much better than I thought it was going to be -

oh ok...yea...not sure if they ever fixed that ? about sharing the same medical staff as the football team which im still like "brah wtf" about...but i recall listening to a podcast earlier last month when the pels were still struggling or whatever and a dude mentioned something about a guy they brought in from the Spurs to head up their medical/training staff or something and how he was just going in on how dated the tech the Pels had.
just all kinds of smh
how tf you own an NBA team and dont wanna pay money to protect your investment -
Blake Griffin moving down that Amare Stoudemire path. That athleticism starts to fade and they become average.

idk man...that jumper was working against AD the other night...he might've just extended his career -
Clippers dont do a good job of utilizing their bigs against the Warriors, they get sucked into playing the Warriors game and they arent built like that. They need to slow the game down and work the ball inside more

memphis is so GOAT at playing in the halfcourt
the pels on paper have more talent, but they get sucked into playing slow and in the half court which is why they've lost their last few games against them -

To do what though?
Neither of them can do anything on the block
Clippers could never do anything with KD
The last couple years, can't do anything with GS
That team probably over. Blake ain't skilled enough to be your second best player on a championship team and their defense ain't consistently great enough to make up for it -

His issues were injuries. Amar'e had a good jumper. Blake has managed to remain relatively healthy but we'll see. -

last night was another confirmation why all the talk about how the warriors will struggle defensively without bogut, ezeli and barnes was way premature -- they just destroyed the clippers at home even though both durant and curry struggled with their shot all night -- they have the 3rd best defensive rating in the league in the last 12 games now
we clown barnes and sometimes bogut but they were on the same page
zaza/kd aint built that trust yet
i dont care how much talent you got
5 guys being on the same page defensively is one of the hardest things to do in basketball
i dont see the warriors hitting their stide until like january as they get close to all star break
and i definitely think kerr sacrifices some wins this year in favor of experimenting with rotations and rest -
Lol nah don't hit me with that. You know how many people think GS only made it out the west because they never saw the Clippers in the playoffs?
More than it should be. Besides this pic is better

Good ? , Morey sticking to his guns and not letting DMo and his agent strong arm(no pun intended) the organization
