Officially on the “Kyrie plays hero ball down the stretch and it hurts us” train
hero ball, hero ball? seriously. KI had the layup that just barely rolled off the rim. that just after draining a long 3.
He's a -13. We are hiding him on Oubre, and Oubre keeps scoring. He has sucked,. But hey, 20 pts
Since when are the C's hiding KI on D? He's been at the top of the defense guarding Beal or Wall.
don't engage
he has an agenda
I realize that having seen some of his posts in other threads.
But when it's blatantly obvious during a game that he's not watching the same game everyone else is, that's when you destroy his credibility (assuming he has any).
I've watched every second of this game -- read thru the stupid thread. You literally just can't handle the objective truth, so you choose not to see it.
Where was he offensively at the end? Why is Tatum the guy we continually went to for buckets? He's a supertstar, MVP etc.
edit: Personal attack reported. Easier to see the game when u played D1.
You're incorrigible.
What personal attack? Your posts define "lack of credibility" based on an pre-existing agenda which precedes you by reputation. When you're wrong, you resort to reporting people for "personal attacks" to vindicate yourself even when shown to be biased and flat out wrong. And do me a favor and lose your condescending attitude, mkay, or I'll give something real, not imagined, to report me for.
Okay. I will create a thread tomorrow. It will be entirely for your benefit. I will timestamp every single possession that Kyrie was beat or responsible for points tonight. I've literally been accurate in every single post I've made this thread. Again, I am sorry. But who cares??? We weren't contending this year anyway. It's not that big of a deal. And his movie will probably be awesome. There's lots of NBA players in it, I think.
Hold on there, pardner, you're changing the playing field in a further attempt to rationalize your agenda (more below). This is what you wrote taken verbatim:
"I'll rewatch the game and
give you timestamps for all the possessions he was hidden on Oubre. I get it... his brand is super cool. But you guys need to open yuor eyes if you want to effectively argue this stuff."
Put up or shut up if you can't find evidence that KI was hidden on Oubre (which is what the C's had to do all year long last year with IT especially in last year's playoffs) in tonight's game.
Additionally, why do you continually harp on KI"s "brand" or making a movie. what does that have to do with his play tonight (or any other night for that matter). Why does that matter to you. Do you make similar snide remarks directed at other NBA stars when they make commercials? If not, why not?
The point is that your overweening hatred of all things KI in favor of your boy, IT who is long gone (get over it), colors your perceptions during games making them unworthy of credibility notwithstanding your appeals to yourself as an authority (claiming you played D1 collegiate B ball). Since it matters to you beuilding up your self esteem, were you a starter or an end-of-the-bench towel waver living off your high school press clippings?
In any case, I await with bated breath for not just timestamped instances
demonstratively showing KI singled on Oubre to "hide him" (on defense) but actual gifs or clips taken from tonight's game showing that to be the case.
