2015-16 NBA Eastern Conference OFFICIAL THREAD

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Wade now starting.
Won't matter.
Let's just hope he doesn't injure himself worse in a more than likely non winnable game.



I do think it might stay close for at least a while.
Bosh will go down fighting vs his old team.

Yeah agree. With 2 days off until our next game, I think there's a good chance we have most of our guys back except probably Deng and Hassan

 

[Black Adam]

Been there and done that.
We had tons of rain here today.
I'll gladly live with that.
Fuck that snow.

ah, Florida rain. how well I remember...and would STILL be hotter than blazes...

 

[bksballer89]

So with Indy and Detroit both losing tonight, it means 5-8 (Indy, Det, Miami, and Boston) are all tied with an identical record. Those 4 teams are only 2.5 behind Chicago and Atlanta for HCA in round 1

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

@WiggyRuss , looks like that Cavalier focus is only good in 2 game spurts...lol

 

[gordontrue]

In a strange way, these next 2 games are very important for the Cavs. Will anyone be impressed if they beat the Wolves & Suns? No. There might be some ridiculous overreaction from a handful of people trying to turn it into "Lue has these team rolling like never before"... but for the most part people will realize it doesn't mean much.

If they lose one or both of them - on the other hand - the overreaction and outside noise will be insane.

No way they're losing to either team. I will be stunned if either game is decided by less than 15.

If they lose to the Suns, whatever "overreaction" there is will have been well earned.

 

[gordontrue]

Yeah, don't get me wrong. I'm certainly expecting wins. Not saying its a tough task in front of them or anything.

But a loss would become much, much bigger news than it would have been without the coach change, imo.

True. If they lost one or both of those with Blatt, there might be some "what's wrong with the Cavs?" comments, but it most likely gets chalked up to the Cavs "cruising into the all-star break."

But with Blatt being fired, if they lose, there will be a ridiculous amount of "Did they make the right move?" commentary.

yes the weather is far from great- but you get used to it here- the truth is- i had a freaking LOONG week that involved me doing a hearing by myself FOR THE FIRST TIME Thursday for the pro-bono clinic at school to try and finish my hours that was at 9 am so i had to be up and rehearsing so freaking early to get down to the justice center in time...- so in addition to being at work almost 50 hours i had about 15-20 hours of "school" stuff and im freaking exhausted.

All code for "I have no friends".

 

[WiggyRuss]

All code for "I have no friends".

whats code for i have more baby daddies than Adrian Peterson has baby momma's? Please enlighten us.

The Cleveland BROWNS have a better chance to get a ring than LAD. LOL

LOL I must have hit a nerve.

Maybe if you put this much effort into your OWN personal life instead of trying to keep track of mine you might have a friend other than your momma.

I have no clue why you decided to insult me for absolutely no reason but i feel like I got ya back pretty good.

Being middle aged, unmarried, uneducated, and barely above the poverty line must suck. Good luck with that.

The Lakers will have rings for all 20 toes and fingers before LAD gets one. LOL.

You're too funny. Let me clue you in on a few things.

First, you throw so many un-necessary insults that anytime someone decides to insult you it would only be pay back for something you've already said.
Second, I'm not the one living at home in my parents basement well into my 30's so stop trying to project your own personal failures upon me. How do we know you're projecting? Because anyone with even half of the things you say I don't have wouldn't say the things you say. But, I guess we all know now why you don't have friends.

 

[bksballer89]

HUGE HUGE HUGE WIN for Miami. Without Dragic and Hassan, they just went into Chicago and won. Much needed W.

 

[bksballer89]

Winslow shut Jimmy B down

 

[GNG]

Surprised at how badly the Milwaukee Bucks are playing despite all that young talent.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

As happy as I was that the Heat beat the Bulls, it just sadly reenforces what I already knew.
Bulls haven't changed.
They aren't beating James 4/7.

I think we match up with Chicago really well....especially when healthy
