Threats?

Unless somebody can recite your address.......


But, let's keep it real.....you obviously like it.

If you didn't, you wouldn't create Stephanie Curry threads.

did he REALLY...?

a tad childish i'd call that...

 

[lebron23james]

Wow that's ballsy.

It's wishful thinking.

But, I admire the confidence.

 

[Black Adam]

Yeah they tried out like i said...that happens on a 6 man rotation

ah the excuses...

so what'll they be THIS time around...?

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Up 2-1 without HC and missing 2 starters...They tired out on a 6 man rotation, in fact i still think had the games been spaced out more they would have still beat them without irving or love

So, 2 guys hurt and only played 6?
I thought NBA rosters could have up to 13 active players.
We heard all last season from some how deep they were?

So if curry blows out his knee in the wcf and they lose i am sure nobody will make an excuse for why they didn't win right?

I agree, but Cavs #1 guy (easily) was still out there and getting plenty of contributions at times.

Hiya, Dj

I'm good, how have you been?

Mick back yet?

If so, has he been released from airport security?

 

[Mecca]

I won't.

You play who you got.

Nobody cried for the Griz, Clippers, Heat this year.

Nobody cried for the Cavs last Season.

So, why would we cry for the Warriors?

 

[Mecca]

a tad childish i'd call that...

Stephanie Curry is mighty sensitive

 

[WiggyRuss]

He's out shoveling snow still ....

Lebron almost beat the great curry missing both his starters...i look forward to a fair fight

yup...lets see what happens when each guy brings his team...

 

[WiggyRuss]

Gotta give the Ujiri credit...he had depth in the front court. Biyombo dominated many games through this series.

I gotta say- was busy all day so I didnt watch one minute....just got home from dinner about 20 minutese ago...

first 2 stats I look at--- three point shooting- and offensive rebounds.....see who is shooting well and playing hard.....Toronto had 20 offensive boards. Thats insane. Toronto shot 45% from three-- hit 9 threes to Miamis 7/25 for 28%....

I think most of the time if you dominate on the offensive glass and behind the three point line you are going to win.

I think Miami's rooks got some good experience. Richardson and Winslow at times looked overwhelmed- especially on the road- but at times they both looked really good- mostly at home- about what youd expect out of rookies.

Will be interesting to see what Pat Riley does this offseason with the cap space he has all the guys that are free agents...as we all know- Dwayne Wade, Hassan Whiteside, Joe Johnson, Luol Deng, Gerald Green, Amare, Haslem, Johnson, are all free agents- and most guys are either due significant raises or significant contracts- or both. Bosh of course too is a large question mark. 2 hard fought 7 game series'......I dont know how much more you could have asked-

I am especially bummed I wont get to see the Heat vs. the Cavs.........but the Cavs/Raptors should be an entertaining series as well. Tristan Thompson going home- i bet he has a HUGE series and shows you that Bismack Biyombo is little more than a poor man's TT and he WILL NOT be dominating the Cavs front line I can tell ya that.
