I'll take the Heat vs the Cavs in a series bet if you'll take the Cavs vs the field in another.

Can you post the Stephen A video from First Take from I believe today where they are now saying everything that we have said here lately.

Not sure if this is it but believe it is.

SPURS with the expected let down game loss.

I figured after beat OKC, CLIPPERS, and WARRIORS all in row....

that Hornets quick road game was the most obvious trap game ever put on an NBA schedule.

The Hornets are now the hottest team in the league at 10-2 in their last 12.

Still they did blow a big lead which is a good reason for Popovich to ream them all.

Hornets are quietly one of the best offensive and defensive teams in the league.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Charlotte is dominant at home and SCORCHING RED HOT right now.

That was the worst possible game for the Spurs to play after the big emotional Golden State game.

 

[Hitman Hart]

Hornets had somewhat of a WTF loss over the weekend, so beating the Spurs just balances that out.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Charlotte looks really good at home this season.

Admitedly, the SPURS were emotionally spent and looked like it....but they got beat fairly.

The problem with Charlotte is they suck on the road and have a zillion road games left. (3 home 9 away)

This just means the Spurs are going to destroy my boys on Wednesday

KEmba Walker is the real deal....

They need to resign Batum in the offseason- if they do that and keep adding they could be the best team in that division pretty easily I think.

Didn't the Bobcats come into the league (1988) at the same time as the Heat?
Let's put it this way, they have as many division titles as the Cavs do championships, but yep, they'll just dominate the division moving forward.

 

[Black Adam]

Doesn't matter.
'Dog days of season'.
It prob really doesn't matter, but it was a major ass kicking, and you can bet your life if the result was opposite he'd have made a dozen posts about it.

their GRANDKIDS are gonna need therapy once their born. that's how much of a flat-out ass-whuppin' that game was...

Wiggy may not admit it, but I'LL certainly call it for what it was...

 

[Hambombs]

Warriors back up 4 in the conference, I like our chances for the #1 seed

if a March "ass-whuppin'" would cause grandkids to need therapy- then this 5 year stretch of suckitude the LAkers are on would cause your progeny to leap from the tallest building in LA from now till the rapture. lol.

1 month from now no one is going to care the Warriors lost to the Spurs- or the Cavs got killed by the Warriors- or the Heat played a great stretch of basketball against mostly shitty teams in Feb and March.

As was the case at the beginning of the season- the Cavs cant prove anything until the calendar flips.

yah id say so- 4 games with like 13-14 games left or something....lol....there fine....they just need toget healthy and make sure everyone is good to go for the playoffs.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Using that stat is pretty lame. Everyone in the world knew the Cavs would not get off to a slow start as they did last season and would obviously finish with a better record this season. Pretty irrelevant if you ask me.

Everyone knew? really? everyone KNEW with Tristan Thompson holding out till the very end- with Lebron getting back injections before the season started -with Kyrie out till December- with Shumpert out till December- with Mozgov and Love having offseason surgeries---- EVERYONE KNEW right?

GTFO!

Find me one person who thought the Cavs would be .500 through 40 games this year back in late October/early November.

No way that they were going to start off as bad as last year, just because...
Plus, if you recall, their schedule was pretty tame in October/November.
Didn't they play Philly 3 times early on?

 

[Heatles84]

I see Wiggy is catching an ass whipping on this thread similar to the Cavs in Miami. Not surprised.
