2017 NBA FINALS THREAD. PART III

[bballkid11]

You thought they were a lock to win game 2 though, no?

The thing is, the cavs are so far away from the Warriors that even the refs can only do so much  man, I don't see it.

Hope i'm wrong cause I want basketball to continue but man they just aren't even in the same arena when it comes to basketball teams.

Totally did, which makes me think even more Game 3 is locked. Could be wrong again.

I have a feeling KD gets in the foul trouble game 3 from Bron just nosediving to the lane.

 

[MVP]

ehhh i think lebron was too young to be judged in his 2007 finals performance

but it shows just how bad the east has been

that team should have never been there in the first place

conference full of heartless trash

Youth could be an excuse, but I think it's more of him choking under pressure which he to his credit eventually got over. But we did see it info spectacular fashion again 4 years later against Dallas.

Also for a 'trash team' the rest of the young guys played decent that series vs SA (Drew, Boogie, Sasha). All averaged double figures pretty much (Sasha at 9.8 ppg).

 

[AEA18]

Had the Cavs knew Giannis was going to be who he is today, they would've taken him in the 2013 NBA Draft with the first instead of bum *** Anthony Bennett.

Crazy how things would've been different.

They wouldn't have drafted Wiggins and would have shipped Giannis to Minnesota for Love?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

That's not how it goes and you know it.

That IS how it works.

How the media reports it, sure, it doesn't

But that is how basketball operates

 

[Lovetohate3000]

No fool, with better efficiency than he had with the thunder this year

Westbrook isn't smart enough to play in the warriors offense. Even if Westbrook had wide-open shots he still can't shoot anything like Curry. Just stop

 

[Mr Dink]

Let's be honest, the NBA this year is the most boring it's ever been. Nobody wants to see both teams running over everybody in both conferences. The only exciting part is seeing Lebum getting a taste of his own medicine and witnessing his era finally coming to an end. Only downside to that is we have to witness a Warriors dynasty in the making.

 

[District of Columbia]

and y'all can say prisoner of the moment blah blah blah ..

But it's some credence to Steph and KD being one of the best duos already. Yeah they need to win some ring but these ****** are damn near unbeatable when they both are on due to there style of play. It's unreal

 

[MVP]

Awww damn, it all makes sense now...

@Xtapolapacetl has returned.

LOL that's who that clown is? Nevermind not responding to him anymore.

 

[Proposition Joe]

Naw, this board hates Westbrook, I get it.

Saying that man doesn't sit at the table with the top players in the league is ridiculous.

I enjoyed the regular season tbh

 

[dland24]

 

Both teams healthy. Both teams stacked.

Warriors in the games Durant missed this season: 16-4 in the regular season and 2-0 in the playoffs.

Cavs in the games LeBron missed this season: 0-8. 4-23 in the games he missed since coming back to the Cavs.

A "stacked" team is not a lottery team without a single player.

We need to stop with this "oooh the Cavs were 0-8 when LeBron sat" storyline.  You wanna know what else happened in those 8 games?

Kyrie Irving missed 5 of those games.

Kevin Love missed 5 of those games.

Both Kyrie Irving AND Kevin Love missed 4 of those games.

Kyrie Irving AND Kevin Love both played together in only 2 of those games.

But LeBron.

Man them dudes were barely hitting double figures.

LeBron folded up Dallas but 2007 was just him losing to a better team.

If I could rep you a 1000 times I would

 

[antidope]

I've been saying this Cavs team isn't good all year and people were speaking about "Flipping the switch" and all sorts of idiocy.

In terms of contenders the Cavs are last place in that tier

Earlier you mentioned the Cavs were the 5th best team in the NBA.  Just out of curiosity who do you have as the top 4?

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Series isn't over. Don't care what anyone says.

Too much logic!!!!

 

[dragicon]

Lebron trying to play godfather by getting all his boys paid caught up to him, again. They're simply outmatched.

He, like most people, didn't see the warriors turning into this. I bet he doesn't make those moves if he knew this would be the result.

 

[hardens beard]

Honestly there's only one contender. The warriors are the GOAT team and no one is close to them this season.

 

[Fozz]

Series isn't over. Don't care what anyone says.

Far from over.

It is almost a lock. IMO

A LOCK? What?!

I really want to know what game these guys are watching.
