I want to like the guy but he just cant help being a douche bag. Given how.he was treated at such a young age I guess it was inevitable. |
Utah is on fire from 3. Ingles has hit 3-4 just in the 1st. They keep hitting those shots then it will be season over for OKC
|
Lebron is definitely in Larry Legend's class
No doubt about that It's hard to put someone in the top 5 though when they haven't dominated their era |

It's beyond obvious already that LeBron is the greatest player in history but it's going to be completely indisputable once he shatters the entire record book by the end of his career.

There is going to be so much crying when he passes Jordan on the all time scoring list next season. LBJ will likely finish with the most points, top ten in steals, top 5 in assists and top 50 rebounder all while playing the 3. To be fair, he may also have the most turnovers in nba history as well. Still, STUD. |

what happened in Utah is Melo only took like 7 shots and Abrines/Grant played in the 4th instead. Something Donovan should have did back in Game 2. Melo is almost unplayable in playoff basketball.

I don't think it's obvious, but it's an opinion. I think he's unquestionably in the discussion at this point.

He's had such a long period as the best player in the league, it's pretty crazy.
As much as you seem to hate him, for whatever reason, he's legit going to end up being an all time if not the all time great. |
NBA is unwatchable

This is LeBron's worst supporting cast ever. Just absolute trash everywhere. We're going 7.
Raptors finally ended that trash Wizards' team season (it isn't that they lack talent, they just have no idea how to use it), was at least a game later than it should have been though. |
Quote:
Very Jordan-esque. |
Quote:
They were out there playing a lineup with Green, Clarkson, Hood, and Thompson earlier in the game. It's like LeBron purposely put together a group of the league's biggest scrubs just to challenge himself and see how far he could carry them. |

Lebron is 7-16 for 22 points. Surely you're not defending this performance. |
This series would have been over by now if Oladipo had played even average the past 3 games.

MJ never lost a playoff game by 34 pts especially against a middling team like the Pacers. The Cavs will win Game 7 and I am sure it will be all Lebron. Then they go into a gimme series against the hapless Raptors. :D
Hopefully the Jazz end OKC's season tonight. |

Westbrook is just chucking it up all over the court tonight. LMAO

Is Utah not allowed to rebound?
|
Game, bitches!
Uh, Russ just hit a fan. WTF? |
**** off Westbrook.

Remember how Lebron said he’s not going to throw his teammates under the bus?
Quote:

Kevin Love is a 5 time all star playing like an absolute scrub (shooting 32% in the series). That's nothing compared to what he deserves for his performance in this series.

They run an awful offense, their best players don't show up in the clutch and don't even bother to play hard most of the time. Otto Porter, one of the best wing players in the league potentially, isn't utilized properly whatsoever. They should be winning 50 games a season with that collection of talent but have never once done so. It was embarrassing for this version of the Raptors to even lose 2 games to that team (and they're a relative joke too with a one-way "franchise player" Kobe-wannabe who doesn't even bother to play defense himself). |
Quote:
Pippen's restricted effectiveness touched every part of the Bulls' strategy, from rebounding to defense, from offense to Jordan. Without Pippen, Jordan was left to fight the fatigue of this long series and long playoff run. Somehow, he made up the void. Jordan stripped the ball from Karl Malone with 18.9 seconds left, then hit the game-winning shot with 5.2 seconds left to give the Bulls the title. Pippen had a cortisone shot Saturday and felt some relief from the pain that crept up on him after taking five charges in Game 3. The discomfort may have had something to do with a 2-of-16 performance in Game 4, an effort that belied a series effort that had many proclaiming him the most valuable player. https://www.nytimes.com/1998/06/15/s...test-feat.html |

Haha **** you Russ. OKC had 3 MVP’s on their team and looks like they kept the wrong one. Should have traded Russ and kept KD and Harden and they probably would have won a couple of Finals by now.
Also not surprising that Oladipo played like shit next to the ultimate pos ball hog |

Was OKC the at least the third best team in the West with their talent this year?

And Oladipo is better this year because he has a good coach and because he worked out like crazy this off season (partly motivated by seeing Westbrook work ethic). But yeah, how exactly did Westbrook cause Carmelo to play like shit this series/season? PG had a couple good games, but it's Westbrook fault he went 2-16 in a elimination game? Posted via Mobile Device |
Carmelo is just bad at basketball now. It was expected with decreased usage that his efficiency would rise but it did the opposite. He's really poor at every aspect of the game and should be nothing more than a 15 min a game bench player.
They still should have probably been better than they were but Westbrook/George's skill sets don't fit together too well and Donovan isn't exactly a good coach. |
Over/Unded on the Cavs/Pacers free throw differential tomorrow night. The league needs LJ to move on so I say plus 10 for the Cavs
|
I think it's kind of pathetic whenever there's a series where the home team wins every game.

And Milwaukee just needs better players. They only have one great one and some other decent pieces. It's not enough. |
Hard to see the Warriors losing a game in this series. The Pelicans aren't good enough offensively to keep up with them and they aren't good enough defensively to even bother them.

Just hope my Sixers can take advantage of the Celtics having to play two more tough games In the last week. Every week that goes by where Embiid heals, the better it will be for us.

Draymond Green 16 points 11 assists 16 boards 3 blocks 3 steals against a team with Anthony Davis.
JUST A JAG THOUGH. I bet the Blazers wish they had a guy like him instead of Evan Turner |

Game 7 Cleveland/Indy should be a barn burner. Expect Lebron to get upwards of 15 free throws. He will get every close call and break.
If the Pacers are gonna win, they’ll need to play lights out like Friday. If it’s close, Cleveland wins. |

Cheers guys. I'm a little nervous because they have the same youthful exuberance as we do, but I think with them not having Kyrie and Howard we should have the edge where the vets are concerned. No doubt though this is just the beginning of a major battle between the two teams that is gonna last a fair few years as both have good young talent on their respective rosters. Whoever gets through this round will have invaluable experience going forward. |

Lebronies remind me so much of the Alexsexuals it is scary.

This isn't a very good team around James for sure. That's part of the problem of their relationship though. He may just be too powerful in Cleveland for the relationship to ever work. They bend over backward to appease him and keep him there because they're so afraid he'll leave, and he has all the power. In the process they've tried too hard to make him happy with personnel moves, coaches... and most of it hasn't worked. They need a strong GM or someone like Pat Riley in the organization who can do his own thing and can tell LeBron no. Of course LeBron left Miami too, so who knows if that'd work either.
Even though it eventually caved in because of all the egos, that's one advantage Jordan had over LeBron. Jordan had a GM who wouldn't take crap and a coach who knew how to deal with personalities and wouldn't be intimidated by someone like Jordan or LeBron. |
