Man I hear ya but go rewatch Game 7. Folks on this board focus a lot of KP's numbers but the Mavs lost because they sucked on defense. The scored plenty of points, and KP didn't play terrible in game 7 on offense.
But when you look at the defensive tape Luka and KP consistently made mistakes and KP just looked totally physically overmatched. KP just can't guard the perimeter and I'm not sure you can pin that on coaching. The dude is a slow 7' 3" center with sloppy footwork and terrible defensive awareness and honestly he looks injured and out of rhythm.
