Non jazz 2019 playoff discussion.

In the situation he was in those metrics are meaningless. It didn't matter if he scored 1, 2 or 3 points, he just needed to score in order to win the game.

If he had taken the tree there might have been time left on the clock giving the other team a possession and possible chance to win. So dribbling and taking what was guaranteed to be the last shot was the right move.

He also sought out a spot on the floor that he is really comfortable taking shots from and got to it.

I agree with your explanation. Apologies for not using Sarcasm brackets [src] [/src] in my original message.

btw, I find it interesting in the two game 7's the 3pt percentage was way down...
4-26 for portland
2-19 for denver
9-27 sixers
7-30 Raptors

Unless you're the jazz shooting 3's. Than every game is game 7.

Yeah they did. They took a player that will be a UFA and who struggled to recover from a serious injury and missed most of the previous season. Not to mention the guy the traded away was best friends with their PG. trading for Kawhi was a huge gamble. The temptation to stand pat after lebron left the conference must have enormous.

wrong, not a huge gamble at all

lol so you can hold your liquor i take it. I"m more into rich reds from the southern hemisphere

so what is the measure of the Buck's success ??

 

[Truth]

Game 1 Portland at Golden State Q1 in the books.... McCullom and Lillard pressing into reckless shots and missing , 'Kanter Hood Collins keeping them in the game. Incredible that it's close, GS gets the benefit of the doubt an extra 30 times a game.,

 

[FalseFlagg K]

Can Portland keep Hood next season ??
