I think people dont like the cavs cause people hate Lebron way more than curry or KD who are humble superstars

Lebron is pretty humble especially to the city and it's fans, he just has a big ego. Curry is humble but a little cocky which he never was before. I have nothing bad to say about KD honestly, things could change though

I didn't say you were, just to make that clear. I just think the Cavs need to bring back their team. What have I criticized that isn't true? I said West was old and broken down, Pachulia provides no defense but they were good moves for what they were working with. If that is hate then idk to say lol

id love West on the CAvs as the 4th big behind Frye that got like 15-18 a game and was their as an insurance policy....

on the warriors he is either the best- or 2nd best guy over 6'9"- and the other guys name is ZaZa.

Not 1 not 2 not 3 not 4 not 5 championships...

So Cavs fans receive hate for two years straight and took it. Now Cavs fans cant dish it out a little (not even that bad). Cmon now. Grow a pair

Warriors will be on the receiving end of a lot of that pressure come October though.

I think anywhere Lebron goes, pressure is followed because of his national spotlight. That's why I didn't discern any additional pressure, that was not at least caused in some part by Lebron. But if you say the Media was all over the Cavs, I'll take you at your word. I didn't follow the Cavs everyday like you did, so you may be more used to it.

The Warriors already have peaked on the amount of pressure they received. At least Curry, Klay, Draymond, Livingston and Iguodala have. There's no more pressure to win a championship than when you set the record for wins in a season and don't win it all.

The pressure may be on KD, I can't deny that. He'll be trying to mesh with a group already in place and add to it, without being detrimental.

The Warriors, even if they had struck out on Durant would still be in championship or bust mode. It would just be with a different group of players.

Lmao this +1111. They will find anyway to discredit our moves

6 months from now when are watching David West limp through games because he has no business playing over 20 minutes a night- you will see what we are saying.

at least ezeli is young athletic with some quick feet....west is old and broken down and slow....

 

[purguy12]

Youre discrediting zaza like hes some scrub. I watched alot of bucks games and he was pretty good for them. Almost made the all stsr team with dallas last year somehow

Ok. I have already said that was stupid of him, he made a mistake and he even said he did. But he brought 2 championships to Miami then went back to Cleveland even after all the hate. If you watch every postgame interview you can see how humble Lebron is.

Yes ezeli is a young athletic rim protector but with shitty hands and a bad offensive game. West will only have to play 15 mins maybe off the bench as a 8th, 9th man. Hes still a solid player

Get used to it. And its not just Cavs fans. Trust me. Its going to be basically everyone that isn't a Warriors fan.

The Heat fans in here know what's coming to Warriors fans. Although it will probably be to a lesser degree.

Every failure will be magnified. Every accomplishment will be dismissed - however illogically. Learn to embrace it because its only going to get worse.

When a team is this stacked all we can do is search for something that looks like a little crack and hope to God that it is actually a crack.

How about " im the best player in the world " comment in the finals? I dont hate lebron but he says dumb stuff sometimes lol. But he is right

 

[Shanemansj13]

wow. A big blow to the spurs IMO

SA traded Diaw to the Jazz

Wonder why? Clear space for what?

 

[avalon2423]

I read today that Ray Allen said Miami never once approached him about coming back and playing. Seriously? Miami had no 3pt game at all, why wouldnt they go and see if they could get ray back? We could have definitely used him in the playoffs.

KD has said he was the best player in the world two times....so yah lol

 

[Shanemansj13]

Nvm...it was to clear space for Pau

 

[Hambombs]

Yeah they needed the space

 

[Hambombs]

Lol true

 

[avalon2423]

What if Wade went up to Cleveland to entice him to come back to Miami. LOL Maybe he wants to reunite with Wade and Bosh and now Whiteside and see if they can take the Warriors on.. He is still a FA. LOL :P

 

[Hambombs]

Hopefully dubs can get chalmers he would be a nice get
