I think we'll be 2-2 after 4.

But damn, if it's 3-1 to the Dubs, how will LeBron win another championship? He'll have his GM work cut out for him with the cap trouble they're in.

Opt out

If iI didn't like the player specifically In Paul, I'd be against it.

Would you consider Paul to be weak?

Lebron joined a 5th place team in the East that hadn't won a first round playoff series in 4 years. Then went back to his old team who hadn't been to the playoffs in 4 years since he left. Let's put some things in perspective.

I actually don't think he's a troll, just very unintelligent.

I mean, for that to be an apples to apples thing you'd have to say Paul is on the same level as Lebron and Durant and he's just not. It's weak but not to the same extent to me. I feel bad for the stretch they've had in Clipper Land. They seem cursed. I think he deserves a chance to win. But he isn't making or breaking a top 10 legacy with his move. I guess that's why it means less to me.

What? The Heat? So you think that's relevant when Bosh and Lebron orchestrate their move together? You think Lebron just wanted to join a 5th place team, not form a super team? They didn't have a party and say they were gonna win 7 titles? They just hoped to improve their 5th place finish I guess. Is that it?

Just wondering since he is argueably a top PG of all time. He will probably be overlooked if he goes to the Spurs. Won't cause to much noise.

LeBron misses a layup

"HE WAS FOULED!!! COME ON REF!!!!"

Rinse, repeat.

The series is far from over. The Warriors have to steal one on the road. Great win tonight though.

He's never even been to the conference finals though I don't think and he's getting older. He is a top 5-7 pg ever though but outside of Magic and Isiah a pg in the true nature of the word like that hasn't really ever led to much winning.

Remember how we just talked about saying untrue things doesn't make them true?

Have seen it mentioned a few times in here that Lebron hand picked his team, if this is so, then someone needs to take that power away from him because there is no reason Richard Jefferson should be on the court in this game seeing valuable minutes.

I mean there is no other reason why James Jones has had a job for YEARS other than that he's LeBron's buddy. LeBron likes RJ, Cavs want him, it's how it works.

And they still had trouble competing with the West.

That's why I respect Jerry West as a General Manager. Probably the best of all-time. And just who has been behind the scenes since this Warrior run started 3 years ago? Jerry West.

And to think that the Bucks are interested in David Griffin boggles my mind.

Yea because they were basically capped out after those 3 while other teams built their teams organically, this isn't a hard thing to understand.

ninjacookies · 06-04-2017, 10:52 PM

These are all huge hypotheticals.

Just wait until PG13 signs in Cleveland for near league minimum and Lebron slides over to the 2. Heads will roll. Again.

I mean...that's basically where the modern NBA is headed. If you don't have an all-star at every position, then stop trying.

Let's make this easy.... If you get mad at Lebron for creating super teams you need to be made at Durant.if you get mad at Durant for creating a super team you need to be mad at Lebron. They each did the same thing. The hypocrisy on blowout is absurd.

Well they did win 2 championships, so they did build a competitive team. That shouldn't have had to be said though, lol
