KD really got carried going single coverage with Steph drawing 99% of the attention for 3 years and had the league fooled into thinking he's the best player in the league. Jesus this is all time bad, dude has as many turnovers this series as fgs made, and on the verge of being swept in the 1st round while his role players have been stepping up.

Double teams were always an issue for KD back on OKC, he was always turning the ball over and it's showing again, this is because:
-he lacks the handles to split doubles (he dribbles too high and if you cut off his strong side his right, don't give him space for hesis he freezes up)
-lacks the playmaking to make passes (can't make cross court passes to shooters in the corners)
-and lacks the frame to power through

The Celtics have completely exposed his flaws.

they didn't even need to be superstars last game to have the series 2-2, if even one of them wasn't a complete bum and was slightly below avg we'd be looking at a tied series.

Currys effect on the opponents defense and giving teammates opportunities will always remain underrated, especially since you cant immediately see it in stats.

Yea the only box score stat which can capture some of that is +/- a stat which Steph absolutely dominates. Even rn coming off the bench in limited minutes his +/- blows everyone elses out the water

Have you seen KD's ugly af passing? :gokulaugh: He thought he could run a team like Lebron. He forgot he almost sunk the Golden State against Houston when he started to dominate the ball

Facts. People forget that little tantrum of his during that series. Dude went pure iso ball and it nearly cost the warriors the series.

Fuck. Sixers almost swept TOR while playing shit again for the majority of the game. Finish it next game

Yeah. T-Wolves won! @ShinmenTakezo KAT best big shooter ever :suresure: Honestly, if he plays like this more, they will beat MEM this series. Adams cannot handle him and triple J got benched because of foul trouble. KAT should also just not get into foul trouble 'cause that messes his rhythm up. They should be 3-1 up now

Thank god the Nets are about to get swept. Only time I'll ever root for BOS but they look scary good on defense. Maybe if KD & Kyrie had a playmaker next to them that would've taken pressure off then they may have done much better than they're showing now. :denzimote:

Tied it up, t wolves is taking this series to 7! Dallas and Utah are probably going 7 too.

KD is not best player in the world; as soon as he joined Curry team, i knew he wasnt the best. Who joins a rival team/player. Its like if Kidd joined SH after wano. We see now, KD can't lead his dysfunctional team. Too iso heavy. Steve Nash is not a good coach either. They're getting swept
