If you are going to rip on him for his defense go watch a rocket's game and focus on james harden. As far as overrated goes... You could pretty much list off all the chuckers in the NBA. Melo, Rudy Gay, Josh Smith, Joe Johnson etc... Also guy's known for dunking Blake Griffin (soft) DeAndre Jordan Dwight Howard (Waste of talent, but looks better than he really is because there aren't any other dominate centers yet... Cousins and Drummond) We mine as well throw in Head Coaches as well Doc Rivers Erik Spoelstra (not sure if anyone actually thinks he is a good coach?) |
the problem is, that's exactly what Curry is. A shooter. Nothing more. He puts up far too many shots and he throws the ball away far too often. And he's like a piece of paper on defense. Overrated and overpaid just for a shooter.
Spoelstra, I think, is actually pretty good. He's got two championships off of a team that doesn't have any decent inside presence, and basically changed the way Lebron and Wade approach the game. They didn't win in their first season because those two were chucking so many threes. After that, they got in the post a whole lot more and there was a marked improvement in the Heat's efficiency. That alone makes Spo a pretty good choice as a coach.
