This thread is the best NBA finals thread in the history of NBA finals threads. I am amused

very similar to nick the brick and game 1 of the 95 finals. only difference is it's bron out there leading the cavs compared to a young penny/shaq. so we'll see how they bounce back mentally

Pieces of ****

 

[Quincy McCall]

Lebron's great, he's just not the greatest. Yall bronsexuals want it to be one way and the other.
He's the greatest because he wins, except for when he doesnt. Then he's the greatest because he had a chance to win. Disgusting.

No other slow clap gif would suffice

Crazy how Hills FTs got over looked by Highed Up JR someone check that man’s bag I’m sure there’s a couple blunts n a Henny bottle yo

It was almost a certainty he would miss one though. At least in my opinion.

Complete mental breakdown by JR is far worse than going 1/2 at the line in Hill's first ever finals tilt, on the road, less than 5 seconds, with a chance to win.

JR forgot the damn score.

https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/nba-finals-game-1-2018-ratings-1202827670/

Thursday night’s game, which again saw the Cleveland Cavaliers take on the Golden State Warriors, drew an 12.3 rating in Nielsen’s metered market households. For comparison, 2017’s Game 1 drew a 12.4 household rating.

"Best ratings in history" = not even as good as the ones last year

The point that more people would become interested in this series had the overwhelmingly massive underdogs Cavs won last night still stands. And those who thought the Cavs had even a small chance prior to last night think their chances are even smaller after such a demoralizing and crushing loss. Last night's rig job = Permanent evidence

Jr didnt prevent them from winning in ot

 

[DLF]

Refs were horrible. Look at this play. 2.6 seconds left and there are 8 Cavs players on the court. No whistle.

 

[bballkid11]

I need to post Hill's face again, man.

His heart must be beating faster than an earthquake. I would be surprised if he didn't soil himself while making this face.

Shook ONES

No one feels bad for JR Smith? I don't, but there's a part of me that has sympathy for him.

GSW fans booed this man for chop blocking Klay and possibly injuring him. Then the entire Cavs fan base boos him for having a mental fart and blows the game for Clev. Poor guy.

 

[QU!K]

I'm like 80% sure Bron would have hit that shot

Too bad he was 0% sure. He didn't even look at the basket

Knowing for a fact that the NBA conspired to suspend draymond in 2016 helps with their finals' loss indeed. While the Cavs had the championship parade and it was JR whom was shirtless drinking henny all parade long, we all know that the Warriors were indeed the champions that year. Lebron might have the trophy on paper due to the refs/NBA, but the real champions from 2016 were the warriors. This year, in fact, is their attempt at going for a 4-peat.



am i doing this right?

Not quite. The fact that the league didn't suspend Curry for game 7 for hitting a fan in his mouth with his mouthpiece stands in the way of your attempt at trolling.

Take the L and sit down.



Nba has to do something about bench players standing on the court during plays.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Do yall really wanna see games decided by mouth pieces and dudes standing on the court tho? Finals games at that

 

[maxelite]

Got almost 9 ppl in the paint bc theyre thinking this fool JR is gonna just put it up instead he's running out of there like a chicken with its head cut off lmao

Yeah, he sure is scared to shoot them clutch shots..

Seriously though? You're going to mention that in the playoffs where he had not one but two game winning buzzer beaters? Michael Jordan had three during his entire career. He passed the ball because Hill had an open layup had Klay not fouled him, which is a ten times higher percentage shot than a contested jumper. And he was calling for the ball while JR was having his meltdown, but as we all know JR didn't pass it.

JR got the Michael Vick cone vision

What does Michael Jordan have to do with any of this?

Since you seem to be the resident Bronsexual statistician, when was the last time Lebby took the game winning shot down 1 or 2?

Off the top of my head I'm recalling the layup he beat the Pacers with when he was in Miami, Game 1 when they took Hibbert out of the game.
