Hey Pete Carroll, get on the phone and offer him a contract.

Fuck your VORP!

What an awesome ending!

What an awesome ending!

I wish they wouldn’t play with their food so much. Have to get this first half defense figured out. Embiid is just dialed in right now. Quiet night from Harden and Maxey.

Not sure I liked that missed free throw strategy by the Cavs right there,

The fact CLE came close was a hell of an effort. No Garland, Allen goes out late, Mobley in foul trouble. Miami couldn’t miss in the 2H. Making some ridiculous shots and Butler stepped up

3-3 homestand. Not great

No TO’s. Little time and Miami will foul them if they make both. It almost worked. Could have gotten a foul out of it too. I don’t mind it

This the dog days of the NBA. Teams are ready for the playoffs but have to finish off the season.

Nice to see the Sixers tied for the lead in 20 point comebacks this season.

True. I just didn't like it because Jimmy hitting those free throws ended any chance.

Plus, I doubt Miami fouls because the Cavs would have to shoot a "hail mary" as soon as they touched the ball

Chances of winning are incredibly slim either way, but I see the hail mary shot work more often than the missed free throw.

Cavs had won a game earlier in the season on the missed foul shot so they probably thought they could do it again.

I don’t like the strategy tho…Most teams don’t foul anyways in that situation

True. You never feel like they’re out of a game.

 

[tlance]

You are too good for this world.

Im not even trolling.

I am just tired of watching kids do stupid shit because they see it on TV.

Then people here saying they miss the days when players didn’t shake hands after?

What?

Players almost always shook hands after the game. It was a big deal when they didn’t, like when the Bulls beat the Pistons for the first time.

Loved D-Lo's post game comment when asked about what the team can do...

"Man, get this group with a full training camp and the sky's the limit. That being said, we don't have a training camp under our belt and the sky's still the limit".

Raptors constantly throwing bodies at AD all game to shut him down and he only scored 8 pts. Lakers still won with everyone else going off. Pre-trades this team loses by 35.

If they're gonna play like that, hell, maybe they could do something in the West considering how everyone else is falling apart. Take my foot, Lebron! Go win the chip.

Haven't had any beer today.

Just searching for a reason for that statement, lol.

Plus he said that their opponents were lucky he hurt his ankle, as he was ready to go off lol. Not lacking for confidence...

Not ready to talk title for them because they won't have HCA in any series. But if they get to the playoffs healthy, no one is going to want to have to play them.
