Nakakatawa naman yung mga biglaang fans ng GSW sa Cavs na naman binuhos yung sama ng loob nila sa pagkatalo ng team nila.

^pre di ba ikaw yung Heat fan na lumipat bigla sa Cavs nung lumipat si Lebron?

I thought you looked down on those people

Balik Heat ka ulit pag bumalik dun si LBJ?

maybe, maybe not. imo both curry and thompson got neutralized by the defense of the spurs. whether it was an off night or fatigued or what.

1-for-12 for Curry and 1-for-7 for Thompson on the 3 point line. pero kahit na ganun ang performance nung dalawa, dikit pa din yung laban which tells a lot about GSW as a team. malalim din but they rely talaga sa splash brothers.

ngayon, the teams that GSW will be facing next have an idea how to neutralize them pero thats only one part of it, dapat may mga similar players din sila tulad ng sa Spurs that can keep up to finish.

masaya din ako with this win by the Spurs since nanalo ako sa pusta ng 1pc chicken joy. lol

Spurs sa finals! pustahan? lol

Watching nba game time, i remember last night dunleavey and hornacek predicted a gsw win.. Haha..

sa tingin ko, ok lang matalo gsw sa spurs sa regular season para at least hindi sila overconfident pagdating sa playoffs. bad thing about that loss is yung 72-10 record, although kaya pa pero mas mahirap na habulin.

Hindi ko alam kung nabasa mo yung mga post ko before. Anyway I made it clear na LBJ fan ako. So kung saang team ang favorite player ko, dun din ako. You asked kung lumipat ulit si LBJ sa Heat magiging Heat fan ba ulit ako? I'm still a Heat fan because of Coach Spo.

Did I looked down on those people? Baliktad ata pre? Hindi ba't mga haters before ng Heat ang mababa tingin sa mga Heat fans nung nandun si LBJ?

rusty · « **Reply #2110 on:** Mar 20, 2016 at 11:23 PM »

^Yeah, I read your posts.

You make a lot posts whining about of about the notion of bandwagon fans/fans switching teams..

Tapos ikaw din pala lipat-bahay din.

You're the last person who should be talking trash about "biglaang fans" of a certain team. Biglaang fans ka rin, bro.

Baka nga lahat tayo maging fans na ng 76ers when they draft Bol Bol in 2019.

Basketball is still a big man's game. Defense still wins championships. Curry is good. He becomes great when the defense (the lack thereof) allows him to be.

There are many accounts that highlight the big improvement in Curry's defense. Just see how many passes he deflects, and steals he makes in a game (2.0 Stls, ranked 5th).

Dubs is going to win it all this year. I also think Dubs will break SAS home streak on April 10.

rusty · « **Reply #2113 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 07:07 AM »

^^But taller doesn't correlate to better defense in today's NBA.

Some of the teams with huge frontcourts have the worst defenses in the league (Kings, Lakers, Suns, 76ers, Wolves).

In contrast, the Warriors' best froncourt player is 6'5 but they ranked top in the league in d last year and top 5 this year.

Curry isn't great because he takes advantage of bad or even smaller defenses. He's great because his skills stretches defenses to their breaking point. His "gravity" creates open spaces for his teammates and he even opens up opportunities for himself. He's not only the greatest shooter ever but also also scores in the paint with the % of a big man.

Here's a good article about Curry's improvement on D -http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12648764/how-stephen-curry-developed-top-flight-defender

^Just because today's big men don't want to play (or know how to play) defense doesn't mean basketball isn't for big guys anymore.

Curry is very accurate from afar, but not as accurate as a big man in the paint. Shooting from way beyond the line is showboating. He gets away with it because he's accurate than most and his guard don't play enough defense.

rusty · « **Reply #2116 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 07:26 AM »

You don't know what you're talking about.

Curry is top 5 in fg% in the paint as of february

I didnt say that basketball isnt for big men anymore, im saying that the analogy from your initial statement is uninformed.

and its not even true that todays big men dont play defense anymore, some of them are rendered ineffective because modern playing styles require more defensive versatility (switching, hedging) from bigs.

bumblebee · « **Reply #2118 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 07:36 AM »

I already replied above as to why.

bumblebee · « **Reply #2122 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 07:56 AM »

Oh, yung stats? Sorry, pero hindi ako impressed sa stat sheet na pinangungunahan ni DeAndre Jordan

Don't get me wrong though. I like Curry. Kahit noon pang may ankle injury yan, player ko na sa fantasy yan. And I'm happy with what's happening with him right now (except that contract. He deserves max). Just seeing things in a different light.

Of course you're not impressed. It doesn't support your narrative.

Oh, Steph's a monster in the paint now? Well let him switch from beyond the arc to the paint then.

rusty · « **Reply #2125 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 08:04 AM »

Ikaw ang nagsabi nyan.

I-advice mo kay Steve Kerr. Baka makinig sa yo. "He's ruining the game, Steve!"

bumblebee · « **Reply #2126 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 08:15 AM »

^Nope, it's actually your narrative.

rusty · « **Reply #2127 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 08:19 AM »

It's not merely narrative. It's supported by stats

I wasn't the one who pettily suggested switch Steph inside the arc because all of my assertions were proven false.

Oh do you know Curry is really a "monster" in the paint....he shoots 57% there. And for a small guy...that's huge indeed.

rusty · « **Reply #2129 on:** Mar 21, 2016 at 08:28 AM »

^accdg to bkref he's 68.5% within 0-3 ft. Yung 57% 2 pt fg yata yun.
