lol the Dubs are next for these clowns...

0-3 on that stint we talked about. I doubt they beat Golden State...

3-7 over the last 10. Same as the Lakers

Only difference is the Lakers won their last 3

Bucks and Warriors is going to have a fun ending.

Dubs had a 14 pt 3rd quarter lead.

Now down 2 heading to the 4th

yeah, well...

 

[bksballer89]

shame on you. you've broken the hearts of evey LeClown dick rider on the planet...

seriously though, they usually pull their shit together by playoff time. we'll see if they do it again...

Yeah a team who is used to playing in June in a conference with maybe one another team that can make the finals. Unfortunately they will be fine as LBJ gets hurt.

Last year they were playing this way in March and April. Playoffs arrived and they were firing on all cylinders until they played the Warriors in the finals.

 

[bksballer89]

yeah, well...

Very good result for the Heat. No complaints lol

 

[bksballer89]

As much as I want to get excited about what the Cavs struggles now may mean for their chances of making the finals again, I just can't lol. Seen this story too often on teams LBJ played for lol.

 

[Black Adam]

Lol no defense. But significantly better than Thompson. Go for it.

oh i DEFINITELY think they deal Tristan Kardashian. i'm interested in seeing if they can fleece some dummy GM...

Yep. I enjoy their losses. But in the end, they're only short term. Come April/May, the Cavs will turn it on and go to the Finals.

The Cavs play the W's next?





The W's by 45-50.

I fully expect the Cavs to win that game. They usually get up for the Warriors and it's at home.

Hopefully I'm wrong

where they'll probably get dumped by the Dubs again...

oh, the predictability...

but, better them than LeClown...

nah, i think they'll flat-out house the Cavs the way they're playing right now...

guess we'll see...

Hope you're right. That's going to be an angry team though. Playing with a chip on their shoulder

I also agree that it is correct to think that way, but at some point it has to end.
MAYBE James not taking ‘rest’ nights will catch up with him when it counts?
I had those same worries the season we were chasing that season long win streak.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Houston came out flat....

 

[trojanfan12]

Just saw reports that the Cavs are willing to move Tristan Thompson for the right deal. That's probably an understatement...

Unless he's an expiring contract...good luck.

 

[trojanfan12]

Julius Randle reminds me a bit of a more athletic Anthony Mason. He needs to work on a bit more control, but I agree in the right system he could thrive. I think he would really be awesome on the Rockets right now in the pick and roll with CP3 and Harden as a secondary play maker.

The Rockets would be perfect for him. He is at his absolute best when he plays the 5 in the Lakers small ball lineup. He's a perfect big for D'Antoni's system.

They recovered nicely.

Nice of Lebron to go on twitter and admit he stepped out. They weren't happy with the replay decision as it took place. Also good to see due to all the beef going on with players and refs.

Stepping out didn't even matter.
He missed the shot.
Pacers could have blown the game by making that 2nd FT though.
