09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
09' MO......... 2.3 BPM... 0.165 WS.48... 3.1 VORP... 17.2 PER
16' KLAY...... 1.8 BPM... 0.144 WS/48... 2.5 VORP... 18.6 PER
Mo was growing by leaps and bounds every year, and his peak stats in 2009 were part of this yearly growth, but then injuries destroyed his career thereafter.
But it shouldn't matter that Mo had a short prime because Lebron was an OKC-level favorite with Mo in 2009 - Lebron caught the best version of Mo, and they were supposed to win in 2009... Unfortunately, Lebron was exposed at 38 ppg by being too ball-dominant at that scoring level to beat top teams, and he also had his first major choke, aka 7 TO's in the 4th of Game 4, which swung the series.. Lebron turned into a 12 TO per game player in clutch time of that series.. Lebron said himself that he "f*cked up and lost in 2009" - he said that himself.. He had no diversity back then, aka no post game, zero mid-range, weak jumper - only a downhill player.... Again, the upset loss in 2009 was like OKC losing to the Pacers in this year's Finals, so it was an all-time upset (-700 ffavorite).
Similar to Curry in 2016, Lebron was supposed to win the title in 2009, and Mo even outproduced 16' Klay... Infact, the CONSENSUS was that the 15' Warriors weren't a good roster, such as +2800 preseason odds and a lower producer than Hornacek at 2nd option.. So the 67 and 73 wins means that Curry did a goat thing, not Lebron.. Lebron doesn't deserve props for beating a 1-man team with the only "big 3" super-team in the league and the preseason favorite.. Ultimately, Curry has always needed less talent because his skillset produces better chemistry and ball movement.. It's intuitive..

09 Lebron outproduced ‘92 Jordan.

Re: 09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
16 Klay played defense too.

Re: 09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
Curry choked in 2016 facing a healthy Lebron.
Curry also reduced Klay Thompson to a spot up role.
Curry also reduced Steve Kerr to a g-league level coach.
Curry also cried on the phone to KD and asked KD to help him beat Lebron.
It's intuitive...

Yes I get it, guys who aren't first options are all the same. Makes sense.
But Mo had by far the best year of his career based on the numbers you gave so doesn't it seem like the fit was great for him? No? Playoffs happened and the lack of defense and being dumb and severely undersized hurt them? No?
Fair enough.

plus mo could handle the rock and pass
klay was better defender obviously but klay’s defense is historically overrated
plus mo had a modern day skillet that was in rarity back in 09’. He was one of tlhe elite guards of the Eastern Conference.
why do you think bron kept asking for more playmakers on the lakers?
he missed mo.

Re: 09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
It's not historically overrated. Nobody is saying he was a generational defender, but he was very very close to being a deserving all NBA caliber defender for his years prior to injury.
You have a long history of down playing Klay though, which is very weird. It's like a Spurs fan shiting on Manu. Just weird weird shit to do as a fan for the Spurs/Warriors.
Agenda driven shit.
Anyways let's dig into the Mo thing and to a lesser extent big Z because those were his other 2 main guys. I want to say a look at how they did in the playoffs series they lost because ultimately that's what Lebron is given flake for - losing against Orlando and Boston.
Mo and Big Z accounted for 28.5 ppg between them on under 50TS which is very poor considering the team was on a 54TS
Add in the fact neither Big Z or Mo are known defenders of giving a lot of "intangible plays" like a Draymond would it's very easy for me to say this is shit help.
The following year when they lost against Boston:
It's now Mo and Jamieson. They combined for 25 on a hair over 50TS while the team shot 54.7TS
This is also clearly shit.
Thanks for this little exercise. It solidified that Lebron in fact had miserable help from his #2 and #3 options when they lost in those years.

Given the numbers from the OP...'08 Mo Williams (before Cavs obviously) and '06 Smush Parker are not too dissimilar.
He was a God though that Lebron NEEDED.

Mo's spacing was the perfect fit for LeDrive, which is why Lebron's stats skyrocketed across the board to MVP status - Mo's spacing made Lebron better and added 21 wins, while Pippen's bricklaying would be a horrible fit..
Pippen told Rachel Nichols that he can't space the floor or play that role, so Pippen can't elevate Lebron to 60 wins + MVP like elite shooters did in 09' and 13' (Mo and Ray)..

[/QUOTE]
Mo's spacing produced the best chemistry that LeDrive ever had, but it still required Lebron to carry the scoring load in the playoffs, which Lebron can't do against top teams (too ball-dominant at high scoring levels)..
Accordingly, he lost with 18 o 38% from Mo, while MJ always won with that from Pippen and worse team defenses..
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;15025116]
and the lack of defense
[/quote]
The 2009 Cavs had the #3 defense and a reputed defense that locked up teams throughout the 07' and 08' Playoffs - this included the 08' Celtics, who were locked up so much that they nearly lost despite 26 on 35% and 5 TO's from Lebron.
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;15025116]
and being dumb
[/quote]
Lebron had the dumbest defensive blunder ever by guarding Courtney Lee to save energy, instead of his own position that was controlling the action (Hedo).
This defensive blunder cost the series on it's own, but Lebron's 7 TO's in the 4th of Game 4 also swung the series, along with excessive ball-dominance at high scoring levels and the worst clutch-time play of any all-timer - Lebron played well for 43 minutes but then disappeared in clutch-time, which lost three 4th quarter leads.. Lebron became a 12 TO per game player in clutch-time.
[QUOTE=ShawkFactory;15025116]
severely undersized hurt them? No?
[/quote]
What team are you talking about?.. The Cavs were huge.. And the only reason the Cavs lacked any size was because Lebron decided not to provide the size/length to guard Hedo and Rashard.
After the upset loss in 2009, Lebron was upset again in 2010 despite adding Jamison/Shaq to a 66-win league favorite - this is a mini version of adding KD to a 73-win team.. Jamison was a better scorer than Pippen, so it's pretty nice to have a better scorer than Pippen at 3rd option and better defenses than the 1st three-peat Bulls - Lebron had better help on both sides of the ball.

What about the oh so important post season though?

Re: 09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
[QUOTE=warriorfan;15025222]They basically played in different eras and Klay got to play on one of the best offenses of all time. He also can’t dribble or pass which Mo could do.
Ya it’s wild. No consistency with their criteria.[/QUOTE]
And Mo couldn't play defense but Klay could. Mo was a good player that was never able to take the next step in his progression. Klay was able to do so. It is what it is.

Still waiting on those Klay Thompson defensive metrics.

Re: 09' Mo outproduced 16' Klay
Klay is better than Mo, but not by a lot. Dude was a 16 ppg Finals player in an easy era vs average or below average defenses. Thats weak. I still cant believe Curry carried that team to 4 rings and record breaking win totals. Klay isn't AD or Wade or Luka. He wasnt even able to match Kyrie H2H.

Curry barely beat an injury decimated 2015 Cavs and then KD cucked Curry in 17/18. Not trolling at all, that factually happened. KD literally would've got a 3rd FMVP in a row if his Achilles didn't give out.

This.
What’s crazy is lebron stans will talk about Klay defense and not acknowledge he was a black hole who couldn’t dribble yet they don’t acknowledge mo had handle and a true rounded offensive game plus had dope shooting. They just auto throw him under the bus for his defense. It’s no way objective at all and it makes them a joke. Mo was legit one of the best guards on the Eastern Conference.

You're telling me Curry was outplayed by a spot up shooter in the 2019 Finals?
