So nobody is gonna mention how GS has yet to beat the Thunder this season and the Cavs just turned them into food in Chesapeake

Makes no difference. Playoffs all about matchups. Okc is a tougher matchup for gsw than cleveland is. Gsw still matches up eith cleveland easy af. Same with houston. Houston gonna shred this cleveland if they happen to meet up. Okc is still a tougher matchup for gsw but gsw is still better. Theyll still win in 7. Cavs look good though. Way better than that **** they were wheeling out there a week ago

I'd rather houston get to the finals. Harden and chris pauls finals experience>>>>

 

[yobyellav]

Ban me if the cavs lose in the finals

They upgraded. Bron puts them over the fence.

This

Semantics.....if they don’t make it to the finals, y’all still here.

[yobyellav]

Is that Isaiah thomas’ real hair? Looks weird....

 

[drewsone]

Nothing has changed. They still wont win

Obviously they’re not winning the chip bruh lol

You know I don’t think I’ve watched Portland one time this season but their record is surprisingly good

 

[a-friend]

Surprised at some of the posters saying LBJ isn't the best in the game right now.....

 

[hand2handking]

i thought crowder was supposed to be that defensive uprgrade for the cavs

antic was the big with potential

how quickly things change

now george hill jordan clarkson and larry nance jr are considered major championship components

that media spin crazy

 

[nflowshoe]

Cavs gameplan last finals was to put Bron on Green because he would have to play extended minutes to help Cavs 2nd unit and couldn’t risk foul trouble guarding KD

If Cavs stay healthy this year Bron should be able to guard KD all game because he won’t need to help the 2nd unit as much. Kyrie and the 2nd lineup was terrible last year finals.

If Cavs get production from thier bench it changes the whole dynamic of playing the Warriors.

Damn first one to catch it

 

[lamekilla]

Lmao at Warrior boys stacking phantom chips on Houston. Y’all know they ain’t coming out the west.....

 

[hardens beard]

The days of Lebron "guarding" KD are long gone.

 

[hand2handking]

is the cavs starting 5 > gs starting 5?

NOTSRS

That 2nd move is still one of the most incredible moves I've ever seen.

This game tho. Still incredible. A.i. and starbury were filthy.

Kobe shouldve shot that. Deferring to tim duncan bum ***

Just better fit.
Nance is a rim runner that compliments LBJ.
Guys who draw doubles and distribute will make Nance a game changer.
Westy would do the same with him.

Hill, he just wants to do his part and is down with whatever that is, no matter. Again, he's built to play with LBJ because of it.

Clarkson can score, he's never won at this level so he will eat out of LBJ's hands and serve as a sponge not a counterpart, just what LBJ needs.

It's just fit. And here, that's far better than "accomplished players" so to speak.

Clarkson giving McCaw buckets. Cedi cooking with oil. Nance dunking on KD again. NT explodes.

The days of Lebron "guarding" KD are long gone.

imagine playing 40 minutes putting up 40-10-10 then have to guard KD for the last 5 minutes cause he was cooking Shumpert....

i hear that, it just seem like going back to the beginning of the season there was so much upside

now they retooled and its like expectations are even higher than what they were when they got those guys originally and things were so bright

i personally dont see any of these guys showing up in the offs to carry lebron

if he not on his a game i think they would rather quit on him and force him to leave so the team can be theirs

than win with him and watch him take all the credit

and they take the blame when they lose

like i think a lot of players learned from kyrie dont play lebrons game
