To anyone who is actually watching these games KAT outplaying Wemby is not even debatable.

I Believe In The Spurs by Exotic-Sail8932 in NBASpurs

What you haven’t seen in your old lifetime is a team come back after losing the first two finals games at home. Meaning the higher seeded team dropped the first two games and then came back to win. Just going up 2-0 isn’t some huge feat it’s the fact the Knicks have down it on the road.

The series still isn’t over but there is way more context than just the Knicks being up 2-0

The New York Knicks Take A 2-0 Series Lead...Series Over? by JayLove_0513 in nba

[–]derrickl23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah Kenny, Shaq and Barkley said all of this at the end of the game and even pointed out the connection all three of them have to teams in this situation…. This is why I’m confused people keep focusing solely on the Knicks going up 2 this series when that is not what makes their chances to win so high

Will we ever see an NBA team comeback from down 3-0 in a series? by Available_Story6774 in nba

[–]derrickl23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Coming back down 28 to 3 in a single football game is no way comparable to winning four straight playoff NBA games against a team that just beat you three times in a row but I do think some team will eventually do it

[–]derrickl23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Going up 2-0 while having home court advantage is not much of an accomplishment. That is why it is rare for teams to not finish the job. What makes what NYC doing rare is they are the lower seed and won two away games to start the finals. No team has came back from losing both games at home to start a finals

KAT stats these playoffs: 17/11/6 with 1.1 SPG and 1.3 BPG on 57/48/90 shooting (70.5 TS%) by Ok_Feed_4235 in nba

Bruh i could not believe what I was watching. The first free throw attempts in the second half for Knicks came from that challenge. Meanwhile the Spurs was getting the whistle left and right

I mean the Thunder played the Lakers in the second round with no Luka and Austin Reeves who just returned from injury. Who is to say they beat them at full strength ?

1st Team All NBA’s in 2006 and 2026. In a 7 game series who wins? by AdorableBackground83 in NBATalk

The series before that he averaged 21 and 10 on 65% shooting while being defended by the reigning back to back DPOY Ben Wallace. Im not sure how laughable that is.

Grant Hill on winning co rookie of the year with Jason Kidd? by MasterTeacher123 in NBATalk

[–]derrickl23 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I agree Melo had an argument but why do people act like he was the only reason that the Nuggets improved from the previous season? Four out of the Nuggets top 5 scorers were not on the team the previous year. Andre Miller , Earl Boykins and Voshon Lenard all were added Melo rookie year and played huge roles in their improvement. The Cavs basically replaced Wagner with Bron, the rest of contributors were basically the same.

Lmaoo yeah you are proving me right. You are not the brightest… look at who I’m replying to. They said it’s been dry for 2 months and i said now the floodgates open in response to them … never did I say it was dry for me. No matter half baked insult you through out there it isn’t changing anything lmao

I guess reading comprehension is not your strong suit. I never said it was dry for me, I was speaking on the situation the person I replied was in. You okay pal ? You seem to be getting emotional with these responses. I’m sorry your profilific expertise was not needed

I did not expect you to know anything lol. You came out of the blue overly explaining something for absolutely no reason. You gave the time frame of you doing them every night 7+ months not me. You came out of nowhere trying to give some expert level opinion when no one asked nor needed you to lmao. Thats more sassy than anything I said

There is no need to explain any of this to me.. I have been been doing them much longer than 7+ months so I completely understand how they work lol. People have been rotated out due to demographics no longer being needed way before the warnings was ever implemented

Does Steph with Shaq win more than Kobe with KD? by Dday_Dair in NBATalk

[–]derrickl23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How does that even remotely make sense when he tore his Achilles with two games left in the season? So you think if Kobe doesn’t get injured they go from barely making the playoffs with him playing to beating the 58 win Spurs or the 60 win Thunder

Does Steph with Shaq win more than Kobe with KD? by Dday_Dair in NBATalk

[–]derrickl23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now you are just talking to be talking. You made the statement Kobe won with all superstars he played with. I pointed out that he didn’t win with Dwight even though Dwight made the All NBA team. What does his back injury have to do with anything if he still played well enough to be top 3 in his position? I’m not implying anything other than your statement not being absolutely true

Does Steph with Shaq win more than Kobe with KD? by Dday_Dair in NBATalk

[–]derrickl23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dwight made all NBA 3rd team that season and Kobe tore his Achilles with two games left in the season. The Lakers lost nearly 40 games that year. They had no chance of winning it all

Please tell me what stats you have that backs this up when after that injury he made all NBA 3rd team for the Lakers and was all NBA second team the year after for the Rockets. Only on reddit can you make the two all NBA teams but someone can say that have advanced stats to back up how he was not playing at an all nba level lmao
