Kyrie
Kemba
Schroder

All 3 were selfish, ball hogging chuckers who had a horrible effect on team chemistry.

I completely forgot Schroeder even began the year with them. Same with Enes ‘Freedom’ :oldlol:

Credit to Brad Stevens for flipping them for a solid bench player in Theis.

So the Warriors trading Curry in the off-season?

Stupid topic. Healthy Walker made the Celtics lethal. Unfortunately he couldn't stay healthy.

Can you spot him in this picture of the Celtics' defensive chain?

Along with these pictures of Kyrie and Schroder?

Very well. Since you apologized and admitted you were wrong for daring to engage in a basketball-related discussion with me, I'll let it slide then.

I'll give you props for guessing that I was also thinking about Westbrook.
But the rest of your 99.9% posts, along with those of your countless alts are trash. With the notable exception of this one:

It turned out to be pretty accurate. But hey, broken clock/twice per day, sunshine/dog's ass, jordon/3 pointer and so forth...

Boston has 3 ball handlers just like golden state. Thevdiff is bostons ball handlers are long rangy and athletic.

Golden state could def use GP2 this round. Marcus smart can rotate on Poole and curry. Klay is getting grant williams. Draymond and horford is Interesting

Turns out defense is vital to winning. Someone should point that out to OP's hero Lebron.

Curry is no where near in the same mold of player as those other 3.

Curry is highly unselfish, has incredible off ball movement, and while he might not be a good defender, he is underrated and has been underrated on defense for YEARS. He is a GOOD team defender.

Those other guys are always looking to score and don't play defense.

Steph is looking to make the right play.

It's like the people that ripped Redick for years as well for not being a lockdown 1 on 1 defender. JJ still steered players where he needed them to go and he made the rotations he needed to make and contested shots. He would get torched 1 on 1 but NBA basketball is not 1 on 1. It's the exact same thing with Steph. Steph isn't 1 on 1 locking anyone up, we know this... but his team defense is underrated and thus he is underrated defensively, to reiterate it.
