Choked ? Dude had 3-4 guys running at him when he caught the call. You know why? There’s literally nobody on the perimeter that’s respected. No other consistent scorer on the roster.
You blitz Mj or any other great you’d be punished by Kerr’s, Paxons, Kukoc, Hodges etc. There’s a reason you never see triangle and twos or box in ones, well.....until now.
Dude played **** near the entirety of games after KT went down first time. But a three time champ , that’s hit unlimited clutch shots the last five years ( and this series ) “ choked”.
Gotta love today’s clueless sports fan, lol.
Ppl will have their narratives. Curry left it on the floor. Got a good look just didn’t knock it down.
You saw two teams built different ways. One top heavy and one balanced. And had Durant been healthy they smoke these guys. But when you are top heavy you can’t afford an injury and you can’t afford a second injury.
My two take aways 1) what happened to draymond greens offense. In 2016 he was capable of dropping 30 on any night. His game 7 finals performance was beast. I know he’s gotten less shots over the last few years but to this point? That’s just crazy.
2) I wouldn’t write off the Warriors even if Durant leaves. They have a great coach, great players and a great culture. Players will want to go there and I expect them to be super aggressive.
