It was nice that the real Steph finally showed up but I still feel like everyone but klay (maybe) and iggy is just still wondering why their regular shits not working and haven't quite gotten up to full intensity yet, better happen next game
Meantime Lebron is in like utter maximum overdrive, he should probably spend three weeks in the hot tub after this series

My bet is that his secret motivation is that he is opting out and going to re-sign with Miami for the minimum and he hopes to just leave Cleveland with the one ring
― juice college (agent hibachi), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:13 (nine years ago) link
windhorst is thinking that his 'secret motivation' is being 3rd in the mvp race. basically proving that he's better than curry, which, well, yeah, but he wasn't for a full season. whatever it is its working.

without understanding the element that the dubs are just playing bad too,
not really an actual response to someone trying to give their take on why they're playing bad
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:52 (nine years ago) link
like them being young and not having gone thru adversity and now facing some on the biggest stage is at least an attempt to explain it rather than just *shrug* they're playing badly.
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:54 (nine years ago) link
maybe if steph cuts down a bit on his lazy behind the back passes to nobody
― polyphonic, Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:57 (nine years ago) link
so many things but yeah thats a big part, every single player besides iggy is playing subpar
― Spottie, Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:58 (nine years ago) link
at this point in their bball lives, curry may be too nice and klay too meek to shake it off and assert themselves/believe in themselves. I think they will at some point but it may take awhile and may not be during this series. whereas lebron (and others) has been thru enough shit that he's able to make that "wait no fuck this, I'm the shit and I'm taking this thing" mental turnaround quicker.
― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 19:58 (nine years ago) link
curry's beaten-ass face is definitely one of the saddest i've ever seen in an NBA game
― Nhex, Wednesday, 10 June 2015 20:00 (nine years ago) link
xp maybe. they were in this exact same spot in the memphis series tho and arguably playing even worse/more shook and they figured it out.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 10 June 2015 20:01 (nine years ago) link
xp yeah, i know it's fashionable here to bust chops on Lebron for his whole leader schtick but he got JR Smith into the finals COME ON
― Nhex, Wednesday, 10 June 2015 20:01 (nine years ago) link
yeah I still think Dubs will win!

the leadership stuff is v rmde-worthy, but yeah he actually is being a great leader, if anyone is allowed to beat that particular sports cliche to death during interviews it's 2015 LBJ.

he scolded mozgov so hard after he threw that one pass away, then wouldn't give him props after the game was over when he was doing his I'm tired act under the basket

i don't know, imo it's going to be something that when revealed it will add to the lebron-as-hero myth and not be something that looks like he's holding grudges

watched this game many moons ago and hadn't yet put together that Dellavedova is this guyhttp://ts1.mm.bing.net/th?id=JN.AVOnkQZgkAcqcvjQKX0kPA

love the idea that the professional athlete playing at the top of his capabilities / 2 time NBA champion has found new depth to his passion for the game because of some tweets from 2010

I like dirty players but knee assaults are really beyond the pale. Feel the same way about guys who do it in football.
