Series Thread: Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Finals Thread

[purguy12]

I know right??? Here in this moment...how huge was that trade??????

Big Imagine LBJ, Irving, Thompson and Wiggins for the next 5-8 years wow. They might of made the finals all 5-8 years(coming from the East) and would probably have won at least half of them. The GM went for the Big name and in most cases it doesn't work out. LA did the same with Howard(they just didn't trade a wiggins type player). Houston got it right with Harden.

 

[purguy12]

He also recruited better players to come and they didnt. He didnt have any all-stars with him. Yes, he played with them for years and some he didnt, they were less than mediocre players and most of them arent in the league right now. That really tells how good HE made them.

I agree with that. I remember he really wanted Jamison. that didn't work out. I agree he made the Cavs.

Whatever you say Nancy. You don't know what was in his head either, but you and Wiggy sure have spent a lot of time posting why he went back and claiming that Wade's injuries and age were a big part of it. You can deny it all you want, but the posts are there.

I noticed you forgot to bullshit that post. Better hurry Nancy, there may still be time.

Well now...not another example of hypocrisy on Shane's part.

Well, fractured knee cap it is for Kyrie...out 3-4 months. Cortizone ain't helping that!

Wow, that sucks for him.

 

[LAD]

Well if you root for all the teams in the league one will win, that's how it works lol. You are very confused, now I see why the switching of the teams and all.

I'm sure it isn't hard to confuse most with that garbage you spew non-stop.

 

[Shanemansj13]

You sure didn't have a Cavs avi and you definitely spent a lot of time rooting the Heat. Again, the posts are there. You should just stop because you're embarrassing yourself now.

I have always had all Cleveland/Ohio St avi's since I have been here and anyone that knows me here, knows the facts. So you can continue to bullshit or go back to worrying about your sorry Lakers. I know the offseason is tough but you will live.

Oh laaaawd...don't even get me started on Howard. LOL

But last night and going forward in this series could've had/have different outcomes had they kept Wiggins. I just couldn't believe that FO was that stupid to do that trade. I mean, some here think Love isn't injury prone, others say he is but the fact is he's hurt and NOT playing now when it matters most.

 

[LAD]

Wow, that sucks for him.

And for Cavs fans....I'm sorry.

 

[purguy12]

I can't talk basketball right now my 49ers are falling apart. We just lost another player to retirement. Pro Bowler RT A. davis just retired.

Oh wow...you have all kinds of phobes. This explains so much.

Man another joke of a Finals. back to back Finals LBJ is going to get blown out in the Finals.

I really wanted to see a good series and game 1 got me fired up and I'm not even a fan of either team.

You didn't have the Cavs logo when Lebron was in Miami. That's why several were surprised to find out you were a Cavs fan. Nice try.

What do you mean this won't be a good series? They have JR, Delly, Sean Marion & last but certainly not least Kendrick Perkins! 7 games no doubt!!!

Oh yeah I forgot about those guys. They still have a shot. LOL Its over for them.

Question now is does LBJ leave now after seeing these guys can't hold up. I think he stays but wouldn't shock me if he left.

 

[WiggyRuss]

They have half of a roster, I dont see how this makes a valid point and you know it. Stop acting like this half of a roster means anything especially the way GS is playing. Miami wouldnt have had a chance without Bosh, and hobbled Wade.

dude...I have no clue why you let the Heat and Lakers haters get to you. They have all been waiting each game, each round for the Cavs to falter- and predictably- they lose Game 1 to a team that won 67 games, has home court and is healthy- and they act like the sky is falling in Cleveland- when the fact is the Cavs are INFINITELY better positioned going forward than either of those other teams that will be choosing in the lotto.

Shit- there are only 2 teams left playing games right now- As a Cleveland fan this is only the 4th time i have experienced that and i was pretty damn young when the Indians made their runs in '95 and '97. The Cavs still have a shot Sunday to make the first 2 games a resounding success- shit- Smith, Shumpert, Delly and Jones all had poor games- it was bound to happen at some point. Lets see if they can bounce back. - And if they cant- its awesome that the Cavs made it this far because hearing KLove talk about how he has never been more excited for a game than game 1 makes it clear he is back.

Just relax and enjoy it. Only two teams make the Finals- and if it doesnt go our way in the Finals for the first year of this era that was kinda expected (at least by me) and became inevitable with the injuries to Love, Kyrie and Varejao.

shit man. At this time last year we were wondering if Kyrie was even going to resign- and now we just saw Mathew Dellavadova ice the hated Bulls on their home court, sweep the 60+ win Hawks, and took the Warriors to OT in game 1 on their floor. Its been a fucking awesome ride and its not over yet-

LeBron turned 30 in December. Kyrie is 23, Love is 26, Thompson is 24 (or maybe 25....), Shumpert is only 26, Mozgov is 28.....the haters HATE ...and i mean HATE hearing how this is just the beginning for the Cavs. My best advice is just to chill, and block out the hate and enjoy being one of two teams left playing and the journey that got them there!
