Series Thread: 5) Indiana Pacers vs. 4) Cleveland Cavaliers

[msgkings322]

they would get slaughtered.

Well yeah, because LeBron sucks so bad.

 

[flyerhawk]

The bench will be filled with David West types chasing rings. You see how hard it is for the Ws this year. Next year will be even harder. And I am of the camp that thinks the Big 4 will not be together after next year.

I guess. As I said, I think it is possible if Ingram and Ball really step up their game. Kuzma is an after thought with PG and Lebron on the team.

 

[msgkings322]

Like I said---- if James and George signed i think Ball is traded

How do LeBron and Ball share the court? LeBron has the ball in his hands the whole time. Dude is not gonna play off the ball. He wouldnt play off the ball with freaking Kyrie Irving.

Ball is a terrible fit with LeBron if you ask me. Ive watched LeBron a long time and a LOT of games and a point guard who cant shoot and takes the ball out of LEBrons hands since the PG needs the ball in his hands is just about the worst skill set I could imagine playing with LeBron.

Ball setting up scorers like Klay and Cousins? I think a solid fit---- Ball running the point and LeBron playing off the ball? Over LeBron's dead body.

OK so he gets traded, for value back. Type away Wiggy, you know LeBron is gone.

Pretty good afterthought to have.

lol.....The Big 4 in GSW will be broken up before LeBron leaves Cleveland- thats for sure. You got 1 more year after this one. Better make it count.

Maybe. I guess we'll see. Also possible that he was a volume player on a bad team. Not sure how much impact he has if he can't get all those shots.

That remains to be seen. Probably 50/50 he stays in Cleveland this year unless they get to the finals.

LOL I know they are breaking up after winning 3-4 titles. Troll harder.

LeBron rhymes with gone.

This is always true.

 

[The Oldtimer]

The scenario under discussion is LeBron AND another max player (likely Paul George) signs with the Lakers.

James/George/Kuzma/Ingram/Ball is a legit contender, and the Ws are nearing the end of their window.

Yeah they would be a legit contender in the West. I'm not too sure they could beat the Warriors in a playoff series, even if they were to sign LeBron and PG. I don't believe that the Warriors are "at the end of their window".

I do, because I don't see how they can keep Klay after next year.

 

[Black Adam]

Indeed.

STILL don't want him...

Oh they are getting to the Finals.

The more games this team gets under their belt the better. And I kind of have a hunch that this Pacers team would have given just about any team in the East some major hell. They have been underated and overlooked by everyone all year.

Cavs will win in 5 or 6 vs. Toronto and then take down the Sixers--- thats if Embiid stays healthy and the Sixers make it to the ECF.

Honestly- I could see a scrappy Boston team giving them hell.

Sixers Cavs is gonna be epic and I don't think anyone can say who wins that one. Kind of like Warriors Rockets

He's also a good defender and rebounder. I think he'd find a way to make an impact.

Look all this hemming and hawing about putting together a Laker superteam reminds me so much of when the DUbs got Durant. Then it was all 'oh noes, without Bogut who will defend the paint? And they will decimate their bench'

It's silly.

All I want is 6ers vs. Cavs.

We'll see.

After next season LeBron will be 35 shortly after the 2019/2020 season starts.

 

[msgkings322]

We'll see.

As I said previously, this is always the case.
