What a gutting way to lose for Denver. That shot changed the series. I would've called it 55-45 for LA had Denver managed to pull it out. There's just no way, despite their history of comebacks, that they are taking 4 of 5 from the Lakers. Last night was their chance and Anthony Davis, 30% 3 point shooter, ripped it out of their hands.

Totally agree. LeBron, who, for all of his freakish ability still to jump 40ish inches into the air at age 35, has lost at least half a step in the last few years. Nevertheless, he thinks the game better than any player in recent memory. I'm not even sure it's close. Like him or hate him, the guy's career increasingly demonstrates that being a world historically great athlete is about much more than physical dominance.

I hope we all have someone who believes in us as much as Tyler Herro believes in himself.

Dude is ridiculous. Did you happen to catch the post-game interview? Rachel Nichols (married to the son of Mike Nichols, by the way) had to show him where to stand. And he has just the tiniest bit of peach fuzz on his chin. And yet, he thinks he's the best scorer in the league and plays like it often enough that he's genuinely dangerous. That the Celtics lost a coin-flip with the Heat for the right to draft him is the icing on the cake.

Wikipedia has him listed at 6' 5", 195 lbs. Dude needs to muscle-up a bit.
Other than that, if he can keep shooting the way he did against the Celtics, he has quite a future in the NBA. |

A more interesting and pertinent question: is Zion still first?

I take Ja, but it’s close. Lead ball handler that is an offense by himself is the most valuable commodity in the NBA. I don’t love either ones long term durability - Zion for bulk reasons that you’ve already referenced several times and Ja because he throws his body around in a way that reminds me a little too much of DRose.

Welp, now the Nuggets have the Lakers right where they want them.

If AD and LeBron continue to drop 60 combined, this won't be going much longer. And it'll be a short Finals too.
