I mean.. he was the only reason they were even in the game, and he played great late but why would you care about that?
Just busting your balls with the last two parts of my last post, you know me but nah overall just thought missing the ft intentionally was uneccessary and they had a better chance fouling and going across in 7 seconds, thats all

that logic is dumb as hell paulius

it was definitely the right move to miss the FT. Nets were matching Quincy Acy and Trevor Booker against Kevin Love and Tristan Thompson for the rebound (and look, KLove got the board, just didnt finish)

Where as if you make the FT, youre down 3 having to go full court on the possession. Brooklyn would double and deny Lebron the ball, meaning the Cavs next best ball handler would get the ball. Korver cant do much outside catch-and-shoot and Love is not the answer for that either.

Youre really telling me you feel more comfortable about JR Smith (who shot 1-9 today) or Jeff Green taking in the ball and nailing a contested buzzer beater to tie the game over Kevin Love getting a rebound and layup over a 6 foot 7 inch backup forward? come on now

Does he think it's the playoffs already?
Dude he's playing exactly like playoff Lowry. No confidence.

That logic isnt dumb when its been done 80% of the times over the course of nba history lol

You bank on the chance of the nets missing a free throw and its a 2 point game

If theres 4 seconds left, im all for it, but there was enough time for a decent look

But on the real, Lowry got his final big bag of his career, he probably doesnt give a fuck anymore

It almost worked out. I'm fine with just going for it there, no need to continue to delay the game

LeBron was trying to put the ball front rim and grab it himself, he nearly had it too, just put the ball a little too high

You guys probably havent noticed but Russ is shooting 55% from the FT line

The new delay of game rule they made where a player cant walk behind the 3 point line after shooting a FT has really thrown him off since hes been doing that routine since high school

55%, what the fuck is that man looking like Bron out there smh

These new rules to speed up the game needs to chill

Lmao two iso plays by the brick bros with a ton of time left to ruin the game. So much for this culture change.

At least the young guns are playing well tho.
