They did do well against the Heat, but they got hot and shot 50% from 3 on 32 attempts and 66% from the field...so a hot shooting night.
Anyway, I don't think our squad with this much star power should struggle with a team like the Pacers without Haliburton. Siakam is good but he's no Haliburton and doesn't necessarily elevate his teammates.
Not talking numbers here. But I'm just sick of the Haliburton lovefest treating him like he's some superstar. He may very well have some great reg season numbers this season.
You'd think a guy who has 4 times as many all star votes as Book would even have played 1 playoff game first.
He's putting up historical #s, and your rebuttals are weak..4-4 without him...we are 5-2 without KD...does that mean he ain't that good? All I said was it's probably a good thing he was out because of how much difference he has made to their team when he's on the floor. To argue that is just ridiculous. Using that record without him, I'd have a better argument for KD, but of course I'm not going to use that as some evidence suggesting he aint that good.
Nothing personal against your post at all, yeah of course they are better with Haliburton. My post was simply expressing my feelings towards Haliburton and how much love he's getting before he's played a single playoff game.
Now comparing him with KD to justify your point of view.. c'mon now, that's the kind of thing that made me mad enough to post what I posted in the first place.
We got a guy that's played 0 playoff games and now he's getting 4x the all star votes Book is getting, and our Suns moderator here is so defensive of him he's using KD as a comparison. Tell me the world isn't mad ...
