Series Thread: 1) Toronto Raptors vs 4) Cleveland Cavs

I think Stevens is a better coach than Casey. I'd give it to him or D'Antoni. And if the Knicks had gotten 40 wins with that roster, it should have been Hornacek. Best coaching job isn't necessarily the team in first.

I agree that Steven is better than Casey. Although when the Celtics hired him I was very skeptical. Not many CBB coaches make the transition to having some success as an NBA coach.

I'm staying the course.

Was an LA Raiders fasn.

Oakland Raiders fan.

And a Las Wages Raiders fan.

Never considered myself a fan of the Raiders really but I have always liked their history, and they have the best logo in the league. I still have an old Oakland Raiders t shirt & sweat shirt from when I was in HS somewhere.

Quinn Snyder deserves consideration as well.




That team totally overachieved after losing Heyward......

I hope they don't change the logo. I heard some noise about that.

In the HOW FUCKING DUMB CAN YOU BE news of the day a man in India was mauled to death by an injured bear when he tried to take a selfie.

They better not change the logo. I'd be disappointed.

You ain't kidding. When is it ever a good idea to take a fucking selfie w/ a bear in the wild?

Hey I told you your nightmare might come true. Just wait until Yer Boyz sign Melo & D. Howard this summer as well.

But the Pacers did well by mainly staying at home on the other players -- and playing Lebron one-on-one.

The Pacers have the guys to do that. Not sure the Raptors do.

Something is always being built or worked on out there. Do you know if they have started the new stadium for the Raiders yet?

No idea. Last time I was there they were in the middle of building T-Mobile arena.

never a good thing to make fun of the dead, but that was asking for it...

have a story similar. 2 guys i used to know went camping once. after setting up camp they actually had a black bear cub walk in and start foraging around. these bozos decided pitching rocks at it was a good idea to make it leave...


WRONG...


it cried out, and unfortunately for them mama bear was in earshot. they made it out by climbing a tree, but that li'l brush definitely taught 'em a lesson...

Sorry to make you so upset.

Either way, bottom line, LeBron plays like this years ago like he could have and he has more rings and doesn't have a losing overall record in the Finals.

Now, go get a latte and some kale in LA and ease your feelings.

Actually, this is pretty much how he's played his whole career. He just has less help this year, so he's had to do more than in the past.

He lost his first trip to the finals with a team that had no business being in the finals. Of the losses since then, only the loss to the Mavs in the first year in Miami was a loss that would be considered an upset.

I don't remember if the Heat were favored when they lost to the Spurs the season before he left Miami, but no one was beating that Spurs team. By the time they reached the finals, they were playing flawless basketball. The 92 Dream Team wasn't beating them that year. lol

Have a good time. You're going @ a good time of the year. The triple digits will soon start to set in.

This basketball league that I used to play in always had a tournament in Vegas in the summer. We'd come walking out of the gym and it was like walking into a blast furnace.

More than once I was sure that I was going to turn to dust walking to the car. lol

Yeah from about mid May through about the 1st couple weeks of September are awful. You get about 108 & it's not comfortable @ all. The trade off is the rest of the year it's great.

You guys will appreciate this one. LeBron was contested on 26 of 28 shots yesterday & made 17. Just heard that on Around the Horn.

Ah if only I liked the guy... But I don't, sooooo ...

Best time to go to Vegas is in July and August. It's cheaper because of the heat and you just go do things on the strip at night when it is in the 80s and low 90s. Spend all day at the pool.
