Love went from being the #1 scoring option to the 3rd in Cleveland. His usage dropped 7% in his first year in Cleveland. Same thing happened with Bosh when he joined the first big 3. Best Love comp against KP is Minny Love NOT Cavs Love

He's talking about 148 points when he literally doesn't play 4th quarters because his defense is so bad

Last year even though he was okc's 2nd best offensive player Billy only on played him 2 minutes in an elimination game

He shouldn't be saying a word

Similar situation how Harden blames the refs and marcus flopping when he gets the most calls and flops all the time

Kanter and Harden both shouldnt be talking, but hey, they still do

Dolan is just as bad as Gilbert tho plus Phil is gone so maybe

even bosox will tell you Marcus is the #1 flopper in the league

Harden doesn't flop. He flails. They all do. They all practice it. Idk why you hate harden and his free throws. Other guys don't drive to the rim. The ones that do will take free throws. Gianni's averages 1 less ft per game but of course you don't care

Last year Westbrook averaged the same amount

But Kevin love isnt that same player anymore, period. Look at how different his body is.

Theres a difference between flopping on the defensive side how Marcus does, and flopping on the offensive side purposely baiting refs into calling fouls. Locking in defenders arms and swiping thru.

Marcus is a big flopper, but defense is defense

Harden does it only on the offensive side and thats whats annoying. Just play basketball

Then when playoffs come, and refs swallow their whistles, thats when he loses all his confidence when refs dont give him calls

rockets have made the conference finals under harden for goodness sakes

Last year he was gassed. Expired. He gunned all year. Westbrook was freaking gassed too in round 1. But San Antonio just was the final straw

That's why they got cp3

KP will never put up those numbers

KP gets hyped because he starts seasons off quick and is in NY

Like literally no one realizes since December he's been struggling. 2 months

2015 2nd round Rockets v Clippers. Had a solid series, but here comes game 6, down 3-2 elimination game and Harden 5-20FGs -20 on court. Got benched then Dwight Howard, Josh Smith and company came back from down 19 points to win it in that crazy 4th quarter. Played 28 minutes that game, benched the entire 4th quarter, mchale let the other guys to tie up the series

Thank the bench, dwight, and josh fucking smith for coming thru for him to make it to your conference finals

Not exactly sure what the argument is because I'm not about to go back and read the previous pages, cause fuck that, but Kevin Love was considered to be a top 10 player in the league at that point in his career, some argued top 5, and was without question the best PF in the league. I guess Porzingis could reach that, but aint that easy.

Because hes not ready to be the lead guy yet. Thats why with Lebron, everything would come so much easier for him as the second option. Right now you got teams double and triple teamming him and he said it himself, its drained him physically and mentally

Harden is the main one who does it while drivingHalf the league does it on jump shots, where they up-fake and essentially jump into the defender to create contact and flail up a shot to get FTs. 
 
It's really no different, it's part of the game.
