Totally agree.
I was pretty deep into a bottle of rum last night so I had to get at least one passive aggressive dig in at Kyrie.
Bro, it's all good, I don't mind any shots taken at Kyrie. FUCK HIM, for the things he said about Cleveland. If he didn't go there, it'd been all good for me at least.
That doesn't make any sense. If Ray Allen misses that shot he loses the NBA finals. It's over. That's a whole lot to lose. If Kyrie misses his shot there's still game left to play. Allen's shot was a much more difficult shot. He's back pedaling, he has to get his feet behind the line while every Spur is running toward him. It's nothing against kyrie, his shot just wasn't as tough as Allen's was.
I get that. I'm saying I just don't there's as much pressure. Didn't say no pressure at all.
I just feel when your back is against the wall, there's not as much to lose, compared to a team that's tied, or already winning. When you're losing teams tend to be more relaxed.
Look at the Warriors, they were winning, and choked, because the pressure was mounting that badly.
Agree to disagree. For the record, Allen has made that shot time and time again in his career.
It's a tough shot, just think you're underselling how hard it is to shoot of the dribble, stepping away, like Kyrie did.
That's a really fucking hard shot Kyrie made. There's no defense for it.. Curry played it well, and contested as well as you can, too. It was good defense on Kyrie.
Allen wasn't blanketed man. Look at the clip, he had some daylight, and once he got it off, Parker rushes over him, with a late and hard contest. But Allen was still open, bro.
Both are great shots. It's worth a debate.
I think Kyrie's was more clutch. Because he's on the road, its game 7. Going against a team that won 73 games.
I think hitting shots on the road is much more difficult than at home.
But the point remains. Why would some rather celebrate the Allen shot, more than the Kyrie one?
Just don't get that I guess. Even if we don't like Kyrie anymore. Still think we can embrace that shot, and separate Kyrie and our feelings for him is all I mean.
