He was going to have to take contested shot and wasn't going to be able to get to the cup. And Hill was on his way to having a great look to take the lead had Klay not held him. Bron used to predetermine a pass at one point in his career, but there should be no complaints about him passing it to Hill there. A contested shot? Steph Curry was defending him. The dude was making insane shots all night long and you're telling me a guy who is roughly 7 inches smaller than the best player on earth is going to contest him?

J-ALL-DAY Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Um yes, a contested shot. Just because Steph is on him doesn't mean Durant and Green aren't two steps away. Either it would have resulted in a step back or pull up with two guys on him. Getting a lay up to Hill was the much better look there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re either afraid of clutch moments or you’re not. I don’t think he is afraid to take free throws. Free throws are a different animal. The way me measure clutchness is stupid. If you don’t make a 25 foot contested buzzer beater or GW shot you’re clutch. Think about this for a sec. 5-11 Jordan is with under 5 secs. So those other 6 times he wasn’t clutch? Why did he miss those 6 other shots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11sanchez11 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Hopefully KD, Steph, Klay, and Bron all get hurt before game 2 so we get Love and JR. vs. Draymond and Swaggy P for the rest of the Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only two players who seemed to have got worse playing with Lebron was Chris Bosh and Kevin Love, and thats because they went from being the #1 option on offense to being the 3rd option so of course their numbers will dip significantly. Actual role players tend to thrive playing with Lebron. Mario Chalmers, Shane Battier, Kyle Korver, Tristan Thompson ect... all looked good playing alongside Lebron. Kyrie went to Boston to be the #1 option and his numbers were virtually the same from from this year to last. Kyle Korver was an all star in ATL. Spot up shooters benefit from LeBron. It’s not about their numbers dipping, it’s their effectiveness and the way they are restrained from doing what they normally did. LeBron doesn’t actually make guys better. He just makes it easier for spot up shooters. Jeff Green is not a reliable shooter, Bron isn’t making him better.

Whether it's passing it to an open cutter, passing it out of the double team, or taking the shot himself, he makes the right reads. Looking at the screen shot he does thre right thing but that is not always the case. Dude does not trust himself there to make the FTs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was clearly at least 2 feet outside the circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rubs me the wrong way because, yeah, in slow motion review it's a block. But in reality that's probably called a charge about half the time in game. So it was a pretty weird moment.

Otherwise, you need to be set. LeBron was still sliding in front of Durant. It was a block. Here's a good explanation with video: It's not a close call imo. Durant tries to change his path, LeBron continues sliding and turns his body, and they collide. That's a block. LeBron wasn't set and didn't have position before the collision.
