Is Bran ball gimping Schroder?

[Smoke117]

He's been complete ass compared to how he played last season on OKC.

[Bankaii]

He went from taking the most FGA on a first round exit team to being the 3rd option behind two superstars on the reigning champions. His stats are still similar aside from the reduced efficiency, which should improve over time.

Why does this still have to be explained?

lol Saying he took the most shots on OKC like he was the guy defenders were gunning for his hilarious. That means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING if you actually watched the Thunder play. Chris Paul was always the main attention of the defense whenever he was on the court and SGA and Gallinari were about similar afterwards. Usually I agree with you and I just made this thread to take the piss, but you are absolutely ****ing stupid if you think Shroder was anything close to being some kind of first option on the thunder because he was "taking the most fga". lol He was the 6th man who mostly played against teams 2nd teams. Seriously, know what you're talking about before you start. This just comes off too ****ing ignorant...especially when you are trying to say this against someone who actually watched the majority of Thunder games. Shroder is basically in the same role as far as totem pole, but it is definitely a different situation. Last season Paul basically played much less handsy with the ball till 4th quarters. He let other players do their thing and do their thing till the 4th quarter till he took a more hands on approach. He wasn't the ball dominant floor general he'd been in the past. Shroder is now having to play with one with LeBron, though. That's clearly taking a toll on Schroders game.

He had an outlier year last year. He’ll get better but won’t match his efficiency from last year even taking less shots as a 3rd option now. His jumper isn’t that good. Lakers are still happy with Dennis since he’s a very good defender now. Ik what you’re getting at lol but it is to cp3s credit too that Dennis played well. at very least Dennis learned his foul baiting from cp3 lol.

He really knows how to impact a game even when he’s barely touching the ball and takes like 8 shots a game. Makes him very easy to play with even though he has a rep of being a ball dominant point guard. Okc had 4 guys score all around 17-20, unheard of in this era.

Is Shaq ball hurting Derek Fisher?

I intentionally avoided saying first option because CP3 was clearly the best player/first option.
I stated Dennis had the most FGA because it would explain his current drop off in points.
However, acting like CP isn’t ball dominant is comical. If you compare last year’s CP3 to this year’s Bron, they had equal times of possession, and if anything CP3 held the ball longer than Lebron.
I missed you tho smoke, it’s always fun trolling you.

Schroder has been awesome. He's been a very reliable scorer for the Lakers and a dogged defender.

Last year the Lakers never knew who was going to score double digits after Bron and AD but this year Schroder and Trez are both good for 10+ every game - for the most part.

He's been a major positive for the Lakeshow.

[TheGoatest]

It's going to gimp his ring-bearing finger due to the weight of gold and diamonds that will be on it after the season, in the same way it gimped otherwise craeer-losers Chris Bosh and Kevin Love.

AD is averaging his lowest RPG since his rookie days. These players are being degraded slowly into being spectators by their own teammate who want to keep averaging triple double.

poor man's rondo.

Were you one of those saying AD shouldve been finals mvp and was better last yr??

It was close and I don't mind Lebron winning the bubble FMVP award. But AD is capable of more if not for Lebron dominating the ball and turning teammates into spectators.

Damn bron won a ring with spectators.. Goat carry job by him

Pathetic right that the Lakers supposedly had the best lineup along with the Clips last year and yet Lebron debases his teammates by dominating the ball for stats and accolades.

Versus Miami heat with Adebayo? Who in the west wouldn't? They were sure to win it. Lebron just had to make sure AD gets out of the way. That's the "King" for you.
