gotta appreciate these moments.....watching a team like this is a lot of fun. Not only of course LeBron--- but Love, Kyrie, TT, everyone...

Great day to be a Cavs fan. Lot of fun- but the job isnt finished.

Time to move onto the most hyped Finals in NBA history--- 2 behemoths in their rubber match. kind of...

I'm happy for Korver and Deron too. They never have been to the Finals

thats pretty cool.

Both of those guys have had their moments in the playoffs too...each have had a big game here or there to help the team get ot where it is

the opportunities for the bench arent always there with such a stacked Big 3--- PLUS with how great TT has played.

but those guys have stepped up when needed

can you believe the Cavs are 36-5 in the East the last 3 post seasons? LeBron is freaking UNBELIEVABLE. And- when you see Kyrie step up like the other night when needed- you just wonder how long the Cavs can keep this going into the future.

Not a Cav thing at all because it's happened forever, but the whole buy out thing is bad for the game IMO.
It's just a way to stack a team for basically nothing,

This hockey game is pretty good. Not sure I can make it through another OT though.

This what the playoffs should be about. Overtime in G7 of the eastern conference finals.

I'm not a huge fan of it either

Giving up 135 points and 40 plus in the first quarter. Whats a team like that doing on an NBA floor? You could pull a top college team and they would compete better

What's their record going to be in the next series?
#coward.

I will conceed and give credit where credit is due.
7 straight Finals is nothing to sneeze at.

Congrats to UM alumni James Jones

Well.. I think injuries ultimately broke the bulls up. They would have eventually got to the finals. Probably 2 years ago. They were going up 3-1 on the Cavs and then Gasol went out hurt. Probably hurt them another finals prior to that as well. Right before Rose's first knee injury in Game 1 a few years ago, they were playing championship level ball.

And then this year.. Who knows what the Bulls would have done. Once again, they looked like legit finals contenders the first 2 games vs. the Celtics than Rondo goes down.

Injuries have ruined the Bulls for the better part of the last 6-7 years. Not Lebron.

You can't get momentum when you're CONSTANTLY losing key guys to your team every freakin year. No team can.

The last 7 years some key guy was always injured at the worst possible time

- Boozer hurts his toe
-Noah Goes down
- Bulls rolling then Rose goes down, then misses an entire season. then gets hurt again
- Bulls about to go up 3-1 on Cavs, Gasol goes down.
- Bulls rolling Games 1-2 on Boston's HC. Rondo goes down.

Ultimately, Injuries have cost the Bulls a few finals appearances probably and even a potential championship. The year Rose went down with his first knee injury, I think was the year they would have won it all.


The Bull may have been able to even make the finals this year.. Though they would have lose to the Warriors.
No team can ultimately overcome injuries like that

Don't forget David West bitch ass.

Patrick "won't play in the playoffs " Mccaw, Matt Barnes.

God I hope McCaw and McGee play any kind of minutes.

Really, West never made a Finals? I'm super happy for that dude, love his game.

You aren't very smart.

anywhoo.....

fun night....great to see the Cavs finish off the series in 5. Hats off to a tough Boston team.

Just a helluva lot of fun to watch this team.

LeBron has said its the closest group of teammates hes had....this team has had some time to come together and gel now over these last couple years

adding hungry vets like Korver and DWill helps and is fun too.

Now its down to business.

we all get to see what everyone has wanted to see from the beginning....first time in the HISTORY of the NBA 2 teams will go at it three times in a row.

now though- off to bed...this week has been fucking rough and it aint getting any easier any time soon....my Barbri review class started--- every day from 9-1, and then go into work from about 1:30 to 6...then get home and look at some review materials....fucking A.
