It's incredible how many players are completely not objective about their peers. Hopefully no team ever offers Pat Bev a job in their front office, good god. Did you see Pat Bev's take on Chris Paul? Pat Bev is there for hot takes to bring more viewers. He is just saying the most outrageous stuff to get ESPN views, likes, retweets, and reposts. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like people believe Skip Bayless believes what he says? It's gotten him millions upon millions to hate on the best players in every sport. So if you fall for the schtick, that's on you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Beverly has made 65,000,000 is his career, he doesn't need to do this. But ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t think the heat are any good who is? They’re only the #1 seed who’s basically thrown their former champion starting PG in the garbage and still winning playoff games by double digits.

Yeah I saw it and Reddick was nearly beside himself over Beverly saying Harden is worth a supermax. It was legitimately refreshing to see someone giving an obviously stupid opinion the business. JJ told Bev in not so many words that he was a flipping moron. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m also starting to understand why they insist on Bam at the 5. I hope they meet Luka to see how he and the Mavs try to counter the wicked ball pressure Trae saw. I think the Warriors are gonna roll the Mavs tho. Small Ball Extravaganza in the Finals. Edited May 18, 2022 by benhillboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators macdaddy Posted May 18, 2022 Moderators Report Share Posted May 18, 2022 Did anyone catch Udoka saying in the huddle while they were getting smothered in the second half something to the effect of 'quit pointing fingers and blaming your teammates'? I could have misinterpreted but thought that was interesting. Their season this year is eerily similar to ours last year so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easy to apply defensive pressure when key people are missing. If Smart plays last night, does Jimmy go for 41 (with what 16 FTA)?? If Horford plays last night, does Bam get to sit back and play defensive back like he has in the last two series with missing Centers? The road to the Finals have been paved with injured teams for Miami. This is worse than the Bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
