Pls you are the one that needs to watch videos, I know you are not referring to in game situation urgh even if ingame sef they can't go one on one cuz of the screens lol iono you sound like a curry bandwagon

Let's look at it this way - CURRY with the ball definately not athletic to drive through West brook so he wld settle for 3's which westbrook won't even give him space in a one on one situation though curry would get away with some and few mid RANGE step back jumpers and that's it plus he won't score all, btw currys defense is just 40%, I haven't even seen curry block a shot lol...... I know westbrook wld get some of his shots blocked even if he pump fakes brook has the speed to catch up.

Westbrook - westbrook with the ball super-duper athletic, all he wld do is bull doze his way to the rim which we all know curry won't be able to keep up, westbrook is a utility player, he has a little of everything a baller needs. Plus u think curry is that kinda player that would stop a monstrous westbrook from driving in lol u must be joking fam


P. S - Westbrook is the kind of player that takes a shot and follows it incase Curry on the other hand would take a shot and strike a pose lol.

Nairalanders be the judge edakun.

Kevin Love is just day light fraud, was a legit baller at Minnesota iono what's wrong we should have kept Wiggins,apparently I don't think kyrie is 100% .... As it is now these two losses would wake cavs up though #Allin

So youre a cavs fan. I just got tired watching the game, Cavaliers needs to make some changes!!

In my opinion if Kevin love and thompson really bleeped up in the game, was waiting for coach lue to bring in mozgov since thompson cant stop playing like a b!tch. Mozgov would have protectd the rim a lil bit.. As for love I really dont know what went wrong with him, cavs are lucky valenciunas didnt play... Cavs defense was so sh!tty and they shld stop isolating the god damn ball.

Frye played well but Lue failed to make
the adjustment. As soon as he saw Frye was hot, he shld hve left him in, and bench Love. This loss is on the cavs. They didnt
defend, raptors got easy buckets. Cavs got outplayed and out coached and that 4th quarter was notorious while cavs trying to make there great comeback but nope the refs ended that real quick
Let's hope for the best in the nxt two games. #ALLIN #Cavsnation

So harden gets suspended for this flagrant foul last season during the regular season..but green doesn't get suspended for that?!? Nba said there was no room for that kind of play when harden did it. Jones hits Biyombo near the end of the game and gets Suspended. Green hits Adams during a blowout and gets no suspension. Really NBA??!!??

We hear. So you argue Westbrook is still better one on one player and then use an "in game" game play to justify your comments. Well if that's the case I accept Westbrook is totally a better player than Curry (Lmao).. You only did talk about Westbrook intrinsic strength, what about about his shooting (not important??) and you mentioned dunking wink cheesy I'm sure you're one of those who overrate dunking.. (How many dunks do you see in a one on one game?? How many straight drives do you see? Well if you don't watch street ball you wouldn't know.. You mean when you put Curry on Westbrook he's not going anywhere?? I don't know what part of basketball you watch. In a one on one game you need a touch of every basketball knowledge and skill. You can't come with just your strength and "bully" you way everytime. First, You need to know how to shoot, know how to dribble to an extent or know how to beat your opponent. Don't come claiming one follows rebound, or would block when the other tries to shoot. How many players have blocked Currys shot?? If you really want to talk about a one on one game, it's totally different from a Bball match, rebounds are totally useless. Put this boy Curry in any part of the court you're not safe, Westbrook will keep up in a one on one game but would definitely not win. BTW, according to you Curry plays 40% defense, bring facts not what you think. You don't need any Judge to tell you how important shooting is in a one on one game. Cos the way you put it, you're insinuating Currys shooting is useless in a one on one game. Westbrook will keep up but won't win a one on one game.

You are a real joke man, A player that doesn't post up, not athletic enough, cannot defend, cannot block only relies on 3's and step backs wants to play & beat westbrook okay agreed bandwagon , I didn't even mention dunking or does bulldozing your way means dunking sigh Oh so brook is a bad shooter and he can't dribble (hesitation dribble, euro step) also lol u said I should go watch videos I have, now you really need to watch some videos pls smh now rebounds are useless and you asking what part of basketball I watch? Perfect. NOW GET MY POINT..curry is one of the best shooter ls have seen in my life no doubt but he doesn't have enough tools to play westbrook on a 1 on 1 game..... We are talking about nba guys u r telling me if I don't watch street ball lol this guy sef...... The way u putting it, it's just like curry wld just be raining 3's, crossing over brook getting easy buckets lol I laugh in spiritual powers. "

If you want to go into details of who has better dribble move you don't need to be told. also lol u said I should go watch videos I have, now you really need to watch some videos pls smh now rebounds are useless and you asking what part of basketball I watch[b]Please don't confuse a normal nba game to a one on one game. A normal one on one game doesn't use rebound [/b]? Perfect. NOW GET MY POINT..curry is one of the best shooter ls have seen in my life After you yourself mentioned he'd get blocked on his attempt, or won't have the chance to shoot you come here saying best shooter, It'll be better if you stop the pretence. If you truly know he is, you wouldn't even question if he can shoot when guarded.[/b]no doubt but he doesn't have enough tools to play westbrook on a 1 on 1 game..... We are talking about nba guys u r telling me if I don't watch street ball lol this guy sef [b]It's a One on one game we're talking of here man and guess where it's played most, usually gym, practice and one the street.. ...... The way u putting it, it's just like curry wld just be raining 3's, crossing over brook getting easy buckets lol I laugh in spiritual powers. You would force me to ask did you skip the part where I mentioned Westbrook will keep up but wouldn't win? I wrote it twice. Though that's my choice. We have different opinion and root for different players in a one on one argument. We don't have to agree at the end of the day. Get your point across, read and digest when your comments are countered. Westbrook is more explosive agreed but from what I've seen in one on one, it doesn't take you too far. If you want to talk about the NBA games strictly, on one on one situations, the whole conversation would take a different approach.

it's not like Toronto is totally useless,
I just gave up on them because of their start-stop playoff performance.
when the 2nd best backcourt in the league came up na them I pick.


if you no attack the basket no free throws.
this particular issue,draymond na repeat offender if he wasn't on the warriors he would be suspended.
Na waa ooh. How did they gather a 16pt lead without attacking the basket?

Draymond was doing a Eurostep. I don't know why they are equating it to Dahntay's punch? That suspension actually paid Dahntay. His contract means he literally can't afford to pay for a flagrant 2

Ahh Curry don suffer for your hand ooh. You think its possible to win MVPs by being merely able to shoot. J.R Smith, Kyle Korver sef suppose dey drag for MVP. Did you know he led the league in steals this year? Don't be deceived by his lege lege stature ishan lo pa Bruce Lee oh.

I hope you know Westbrook is not even as good a defender as Steph.

because they were shooting really well.

it doesn't matter if he was doing the Euro dance he kicked the same player in the nuts twice. that is not coincidence.

I'm not disputing anything tho curry sabi, I'm just saying in a 1 on 1 situation I would pick westbrook but bro let's leave paper stats what does it take to be a good defender, what are the qualities of being called a good defender in the NBA

If we talk now they'll call us Bandwagon cheesy
Like I said before, Green honestly should've been given a Flagrant 2 at that moment and even pay, but just like the NBA does sometimes, after looking at what's best for business, best for ratings and satisfaction of everybody, the best is not suspension but what if Adams hit Curry in the Groin would he be ejected? Yes I guess. If Durant hit Curry in the Groin or Curry did the same to Durant would either be ejected? I'll say No!! NBA did what's best for themselves and the business which is wrong.. But I'll take it. I won't ask them to suspend him after that and BTW, Draymond is one game away from Suspension let's I believe he'll be careful after this. $25,000 no be small money but not enough if you ruined my balls and put my future and generation in Jeopardy. cheesy

True. Earlier in the series, he was falling for it and it was terrible to watch but now he's adjusted. Adams really playing his hearts out.

Yes, he really was. I still have a feeling curry will find a way to adjust, will probably start catching it and shooting it immediately cause Adams no they bite oh.

Biyombo did not even bite, not for lebron, not for Kyrie yesterday..... That boy is about to earn a huge paycheck. The kid is really satisfied with 7, 8, 9, 10 points.... I wonder why howard can not accept that kind of role anyways.
