2022 NBA Finals: (3) Golden State Warriors vs (2) Boston Celtics - page 321

Over right now if what?


If Klay shot better? Poole? If Dray played better?


Would be over the other way if Tatum played better of if Al shot better in gm2.

What kind of point are you even making? You arent saying anything of substance.

Of course if Curry scored 50 every game the series could be over.

But you know, basketball is hard.

If KD scored 50 every game celts wouldn't made it out the first.

Putting up 30 on 50% shooting vs the best defense in the league, is amazing.

Its hilarious how u think you are smart but you arent saying sh1t.

If AI did more they would've beat the Lakers.



Low educated take here. Do better.

-1   

If he doesn't give up the biggest 4th quarter lead in 30 years.

If he doesn't have more turnovers than points and assist in the 4th quarter.

Am I asking for too much of a top 15 player of all time?

-2   

Yup believe it or not Celtics shot 40% even with the Q4 sh1tshow. GSW only shot 35%.

Yup, you dumb

Best shooters of all time + moving screens >>>>>>

This or a troll

The Celtics are not the better team fam. Stop it.

If both teams played their best game, the warriors would still win the series.

you swore up and down the Celtics would close this out in 5

-1   

Celtics might slightly be the better all around team as a unit. Their biggest problem is they start chucking unnecessary 3s way too often.

But the Warriors got the best player in the series and sometimes that's enough if the supporting cast can contribute an adequate amount. We'll see.

Looks like we'll have something to watch Father's Day evening

How and why are the Warriors better talent wise?

-1   

Disagree. Celts are the deeper team and can get more production for more players.

You're delusional and mentally ill.

The Los Angeles Lakers won in 2000 because of Coach Phil Jackson and Apex prime predator Shaquille O'Neal.

2000 NBA Finals MVP: Shaq

2001 NBA Finals MVP: Shaq

2002 NBA Finals MVP: Shaq

2000: Shaq 18.6 WS, Kobe 10.6 WS
2001: Shaq 14.9 WS, Kobe 11.3 WS
2002: Shaq 13.2 WS, Kobe 12.7 WS

Here's some more….

Shaq's 2000 NBA Finals stats:
38 ppg on 61% FG, 16.7 RPG...

Kobe: 15.6 ppg on 36% FG

Shaq's 2001 NBA Finals stats:
33 ppg on 57% fg, 15 RPG...

Kobe: 24.6 on 41% FG

Shaq's 2002 NBA Finals stats:
36.3ppg on 59.5% FG, 12.3 RPG ...

Kobe: 26.8ppg on 51% FG

Kobe Bryant was Shaq's sidekick on the Lakers.

In the 4th quarters of the '09 and '10 NBA Finals:

Kobe shoots: 22-74 (29.7%)
Gasol shoots: 20-34 (58.8%)

NBA Finals:

Kobe shoots 41.2% (333-808)…

Kobe's teammates shoots 46.0% (1009-2161)…

His team won in spite of him, not because of him.

08 Finals: Blew 24 Point Lead in Game 4 and got blown out by 39 Points in Game 7

Kobe Bryant

- Never led the league in Win Shares

- His best season ranked by win shares puts him as the 115th best regular season by any player ever (NBA/ABA)

- Never finished inside the top 2 any given season based on PER

Shaquille O'Neal averaged 26.6 points on 63.1 from the field, 10.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 5 games in the 2004 NBA Finals.

Kobe Bryant averaged 22.6 points on 38.1 from the field, 4.4 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 5 games in the 2004 NBA Finals

38.1 from the field

17.4 from the three point line

+/- (-10.4)

The Lakers lost the 2004 NBA Finals because Kobe wanted to win the NBA Finals MVP and he would rather lose than to see his teammate Shaquille O'Neal win his fourth NBA Finals MVP.

That's the reality.

During the play-offs in their 2 championship runs ('09-10):

Pau Gasol: 8.5 Win Shares, .222 WS/48

Kobe Bryant: 8.3 Win Shares, .214 WS/48

Most missed shots in NBA history

2. John Havlicek 13,417

2011 NBA playoffs

Mavericks 4 Lakers 0 Kobe got swept with home court advantage and favored to win the series.
