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

[SlinkyRedfoot]

It got to the point where people didn't even want to waste their time coming because you knew what you were going to get.

Apparently, Miami fans hate success. Well, they should be happy with last season!

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

...and now you're doing what you've accused me of because James left Miami. It's completely transparent.

Whats transparent is that you can't read and comprehend.
I've never questioned James' or any FA's decisions.
Once the contract is up, it's up.
They've earned the right to do/go whatever they want.

All I have said negatively about him on the subject was that I didn't buy into the bullshit of the reasons he said he left, but that's strictly MY OPINION, and nobody's changing it.

As far as him being an asshole. I said it the entire time he was here, so how could it have anything to do with him leaving?

There, there, little fella. The Heat will be good again someday. Take one:

Another bad example.

Nobody questioned what James did on the court.
I was talking off the court.

As far as the 'state of the Heat', I'm cool with it.
If you lose to the Warriors, your'e season ends with a loss just like ours did.

I'm THRILLED to hopefully have Dragic/Whiteside long term, to build around moving forward.

You can keep James and his annual opt outs.

I say your about 55 weeks away from seeing him act on it if there's no banner by the end of next season.

 

[Nooone]

I hear Bargnani might be available....... Another of N Y's misfit that Lebron can light into and get his ass playing....!1


Wait for it.....

please, no

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Well cant wait for game 3. I think this game will tell us a lot. Im calling a blow out win by GS. GS will come out fired up. No more taking it easy.

If Cavs win or make it close then I think we might have our self a series.

My opinion:

More important for, more pressure on Cavs tonight.

Only problem with your rant, cupcake, is that I'm not a Cavs or James fan. I just like pointing out bullshit, which brought me to you.

What's the bet?

Lifetime ban from here??

Now. run along and take your bullshit elsewhere...

And, your'e not a Cavs fan, but an Indians fan...and you're going to tell me to 'enjoy the Heat' and their 1 losing season??


What a fucking glutton for punishment you must be.
Why not sport a Jose Mesa avi??

Here, because obviously you're a giant pussy.

 

[Montalban]

They just need to enter game 5 not down 3-1, obviously.

Down 3 to 1 would be death even to a mediocre team like the Love and Irving-less Cavs are.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Down 3 to 1 would be death even to a mediocre team like the Love and Irving-less Cavs are.

I wouldn't say death, because IMO it would then come down to them needing to more or less win game 6, but it would sure as hell diminish their chances.

I highly doubt the Cavs win another road game this series.

And, before it started, I said 7 games, both teams would win on the road, and that it would be 1-1 after 2.

That was with Irving though.

All true, especially the bold. Turnup is saying basically the same things about Lebron now that he's in Cleveland as he did when he was in Miami.

Been posting with Turnup since cbs and his take on Lebron was always the same. Never questioned his right to go where he wanted to go via FA (including when he left Miami), acknowledged he's the best player in the world, was glad to have him on the Heat and was happy about the 4 straight finals trips and 2 titles. He was also never Turnups favorite player and he complained at times about Lebron's drama and making things about himself.

Hahaha. Someone had those and I thought they were just regular Kleenex. I tried it and it was all cool on my face and I thought I was having a seizure.

You are what you eat, you know?

Hey, do you know any tales of goblins?

 

[Shanemansj13]

This goes for both teams, but the Cavs need to start hitting open shots. Plain and simple.

"Nearly half of the Cavaliers' field-goal attempts went uncontested in Game 1. They connected on just 40.5 percent of those unimpeded looks (17-of-42).
Almost half of their shot opportunities went uncontested once again in Game 2. They converted an even worse 30 percent of them (12-of-40).
J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert combined to go 4-of-14 on wide-open shots Sunday night."

That's all well and good, but the funny bullshit is that he took umbrage to someone calling Beasley an asshole because they didn't know him, but in the very next paragraph he called James an asshole when he doesn't know him.

What's good for the goose, and all that, you know?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

That was with Irving though.

True, but at the time, his status wasn't clear.

Also, the Cavs can defend better when he's not on the court (although he looked very good in game 1 until he was hurt injured).

As long as the other players are/were making the shots like they were in the first 3 rounds, I thought the Cavs would be fine as they were.

Being out vs injured def does change things, but it also for sure let's the others know what their role will be.

Warriors 'should' wear them out, but if you remember a couple week back, I said this Cavs team reminded me of the Buckeyes football team and we all know what the 'experts' perception was vs how the games actually ended.
