I think we both discussed it in the last week, but wow, either that guy isn't healthy, or he's completely checked out on that team. Portland indeed dodged a bullet, and have a better center for 1/3 the salary.

Yep

Yeah, you could get Dallas next round with HCA and in the WCF it would be Thunder/Grizz/Clips/W's. Clips have major question marks mentally at this point. Warriors without Bogut. Grizz are good but still a 7th seed. OKC wojuld have HCA and would be tough but they're struggling with Memphis.



Curry is the better shooter though. :ghoti:

Lol he looks like a cat watching it's owners bang it out.
 
The Bobcats are no more. The team will become the Hornets next season. Charlotte never won a playoff game as the Bobcats (0-8 all-time).

Golden State lost game 2 by 40. You must've missed that game. But I'm rooting for GS nonetheless. I hate the Clippers.

Curry is shooting 37% from three in the playoffs. Lillard is shooting 48% from 3 in the playoffs.

Who is scary again?

Your previous metric for determining the better shooter was higher 3 pt FG% in the regular season.

Curry overtook Lillard, as he always will given a large enough sample size.
 
Forget Curry or Parker or even Chris Paul. Lillard is the best PG in the playoffs:

25.5 ppg, 7.5 apg, 6.0 rpg, 48% from three, 3-1 series lead

Also, isn't Beverly supposed to be a good defender?

Lillard is outplaying Curry when it matters. It's not close.
 
Gotta love the Pacers fans cheering because they're team is only down 18. Who thought it would come to this?

I'm actually impressed they weren't booing the Pacers prior to that spurt.

currys beard is not very scary, i will give you that

lillard isnt even the top scorer on his own team though, so point for curry

and by your measure troy daniels is better than both of them

but lillard is my favorite player, so 20 points for him

but im not scared of lillard, i quite like him in fact, so -25 points

and some people are scared of spiders, and some arent, fear is subjective. for instance, some people are afraid of large crowds. or mushrooms. some people are afraid of sharks when they swim in a lake. some people will never have sex because they think boners and vaginas are horrifying. some people are mortified by the color yellow. some people have nightmares about potato salad.

would you mock their pain? tell them their fear isnt real?
 
I also think that NBATV is amplifying the crowd noise now, though. Nobody is standing, yet the place explodes and you can't hear the announcers?

Huh? Curry is only averaging 21 ppg. Lillard averaging 25 ppg. It is not Lillard's fault that he has a teammate who averages 35 ppg. Lillard is better than Curry. It's not close. I'll be rooting for Curry tomorrow night though.

i hate that shit, but most everyones reality is biased by their perception. clearly indiana fans are super pumped!!@@!11!3
 
Who is scarier? Look at how defenses play Curry compared to how they play Lillard.

That's fear.
 
KingSpeed said:
In the regular season. In the playoffs when it matters, when championships are won, Lillard is better and it's not close. At all.

To be fair, Curry has been further in the playoffs.

Regardless, the Curry/Lillard debate will be around for years to come. lol.

This is Lillard's first year in playoffs and he's going to 2nd round just like Curry did. Took Curry longer though. Lillard is doing it in his second season.

I remember when Lakers fans and Blazers fans used to say the same thing about the Oden/Bynum debate.
