Shots fired.

Funny thing is, Love is actually leading the league right now.

I don't know if this is going to make any sense, but I kind of feel that Kevin Love accumulates points more than he purely scores them. Durant and Westbrook dominate the ball so much, whereas Kevin just ends up taking shots as a result of ball movement or a fading shot clock.
 
That make any sense to anybody? What I'm saying is he doesn't have dominate the ball to score a ton.

That makes a lot of sense lol

Anthony Davis is the same way.

Let me say what he really meant:

"It's fun playing on a team that isn't nearly as good as OKC, so I get to shoot"

What's funny is that OKC has two studs out of 15 players, but Minnesota's remaining 13 are significantly better than OKC's. It's crazy how much star power matters in the NBA, and it kind of sucks, to be honest.

AI got far practically on his own. It's just the type of league where you need star players to win. I think the Spurs are a good example of a team that focuses on more than star power to go far though

Two superstars is barely star power?

Ugh. Nothing will fall in for Houston.
 
And the Clippers are making ridiculous plays. Man oh man. This is just hard to watch.

We're talking Duncan and Parker? I'm not trying to discredit anything, I like what they've been doing this past decade. But I'm judging off recent seasons because obviously Duncan can't contribute as much as he used to when younger or when he was considered a superstar in my eyes. My point is I like how the Spurs have still been able to keep relevant through focusing on depth and development while Duncan and even Ginobili have been aging.
