Really? I think the last few losing seasons were the lee way he's given Miami. Honestly, before the year started, I thought this was a pivotal year for Miami. Now, they very well could get hot and change everything, but Miami can't bank on Wade staying and adding another big gun, as of right now.

I dont know about Atl. i mean, ive always had hopes for them in the playoffs, but JJ always disappears. Only reason i cant consider him a "superstar". Jamal is going to do work in the playoffs, quote me on that.


And i may be the only one, but i think atl can match up perfectly with Orlando. They have the dept, and the versatility for it. If Orlando was to use the "twin tower" lineup though, only team i can see stopping that is L.A.



Spurs are going to lit up the fire once playoff time comes, mark my words CP. keep doggin em, but you'll be up for a surprised.



LA needs to start playing with some more heart. them d udes always look lost as hell without kobe on the floor.

 

[i nasmatic i]

Atlanta does not want to see Orlando in a playoff series. Orlando negates and exceeds Atlanta's athleticism and length.

They're 0-3 against them and have lost by like 60 points altogether.

San Antonio is still experimenting with the group. Duncan has been a rock for the squad. Ginobili and Parker have battled through injuries. Jefferson hasn't found his niche. Blair and Hill have been nice though.

 

[dlo13]

Yeah, I was gonna ask how dude figured ATL matched up well when we've gotten stomped three times now.

 

[franchise3]

I'm drinking the Hawks Kool-Aid, simply because I drank the Spurs Kool-Aid for the longest. The Celtics are like the Spurs in the sense that you want to believe in their winning ways/veteran leadership. Problem is, father time has showed his face. We see it with the Spurs, and now we're seeing it with the Celtics. KG is playing on one knee, and Ray Allen doesn't look like the Ray we're used to seeing him. Come playoff time, if the Celts and Hawks were to square off, I believe ATL can handle the C's. They've shown they could hang 2 years ago, and they're showing it now.

I'm not saying Cleveland will, but you sound like really salty, and you know that's cause at the end of the day, you are scared the Lake Show will face 'Bron in the finals and you want to part of that.

LOL. Like Cleveland has ever done anything to be afraid of...

Good argument...How bout not just spewing some random Ohio hate for once and saying something real.  They already beat the Lake Show twice this year.  Lakers showed they had 0 answer for LeBron.  And that Cleveland hasn't every done anything argument is ******ed.  LeBron carried them to a final in '07 and this team is far better than that one.  Does Cleveland resemble the same squad as last year? Yes, so they still have a lot to prove by not letting down in the playoffs, but if you want to bet against LeBron, go ahead.

  
its regular season buddy...youre sounding more and more like Lebron tree hugger by the minute...2 regular season wins dont mean a thing...as impressive and great Lebron is...if you learned from last year and years passed that ONE player cannot do it all

i really find it funny how everyone is suddenly is loving the cavs and counting the celtics off due to having an 8 game winning streak...the celtics are just trying to tread water before the playoffs...remember they did take the magic to 7 games and thats without kg...the fact of the matter is its only february and if you and these other people are gonna start crowning the cavs the nba champs then youre fooling yourself because from here on out till june a lot of things can happen...having the best record in the league doesnt mean squat...hey! ask the cavs last year

I don't attack all Cavs fans - just the idiots that don't know when to shut up. JDB, Enwhykayee (or however you spell it), Clevelandsprince, and a few others are all good people in my book. AnimalThug, belle and OC bring the hatred on themselves.  

co-sign to this...eyeyee is legit though hes not really bad but add mytoaster to this list...i really laugh when i see these cavs fans run their mouths and get all excited during the regular season...havent they learned from last year?...you wouldve thought they would learned from last year but no

but once Lebron leaves everything will be back to normal and the cavs will be back to garbage just like their city

 

[i nasmatic i]

No wonder the Suns have been in a slump the past month. They're busy making youtube videos and *%%*.

 

[CP1708]

I like Atlanta but I don't trust them yet so I haven't mentioned them.  I keep seeing them swept out the second round like it was nothing last year.  Maybe they surprise me, but right now I look at them as regular season folk.  Ala Cleveland. 

I know BangDak, the Spurs will make me eat my words, cuz ya know, they always beat the Lakers in the playoffs.  The friggin Spurs ain't gonna do @#$%.  If they face the Nuggets or the Lakers in the second round, they are gone just like that. 

And I'm not @#$%^& Amish, gosh damn it. 

 

[airmaxpenny1]

I'm not saying that it means the Cavs are going to win it all, but you guys act like the Cavs regular seasn victories hold no weight at all...That just simply isn't true.

*shrugs*

They won 66 last year and were 8-0 in the playoffs, and it meant nothing.  And that was with a Boston team out there with no KG, and an Atlanta team no where near ready.  Now Atlanta might be tougher, and Boston has a 70% KG back, and Sheed to help out.  So to me, it's the same Cavs.  1 man team. 

  

 

[al3xis]

2 regular season wins dont mean a thing...
be honest, if LA swept them you guys wouldn't be saying that. They do have to do it in the playoffs, but we've gone from not calling them a contender to now them having to still do it in the playoffs..which is true...but it just seems like they have to do more to recieve credit then anyone else. We talk about history and winning and kill the cavs on here and now we're praising the Hawks? What have they ever done? I guess not have certain fans on NT.


...

Sheed? There is no switch for him to turn on come May...maybe KG, Paul and Ray have that. but not sheed, he just sucks now.

 

[halfwaycrook]

Sheed has lost a lot of respect I think from everyone. It's so obvious he just chucks.

And I hope we can move Ray for something. I liked those Monta rumors

 

[bangdak]

"turn it on blue boy"

If bibby can actually make some of his jump shots and play more damn efficiently, im sure they'll do work. not to mention joe smith is still injured. he deepens the frontcourt a tiny bit.



as long as Horford can keep dwight in foul trouble, they got a great chance.

 

[dlo13]

Monta makes no damn sense next to Rondo, tho.

i actually liked that trade for boston. it makes them younger, a real score who can make pp's life a bit easier, and can have two distributors at the same time.



They'll lose they're clucthness, but monta and PP can both make a shot when it counts when needed.

Don't matter, I'm sure they'd want Rondo back in a trade.

QUESTION:
What the hell happened to Mike Bibby?

 

[i nasmatic i]

If Boston is trading Ray Allen, they better get back some athleticism and depth.

 

[westcoastsfinest]

no way the warriors trade monta for ray

 

[i nasmatic i]

Random fake trade:

Sacramento gets: Ray Allen's expiring contract
Boston gets: Kevin Martin and Andres Nocioni/Beno Udrih

Who says no?

I say no only because the King's know we damn well cannot attract any big FA to Sacramento, so cap space is kinda useless to us

Said Brown to the Cleveland Plain Dealer: “It is unfortunate (MoWilliams wasn’t selected). I'm a firm believer in record havingsomething to do with it. There are talented guys in this business whocan be put in situations to go do what they want… there's not as muchpressure on guys to perform the right way and get numbers."

They hatin' on Mr. 17/4. SMH.
