They were also perhaps responsible for the Cavs lone title.

They accumulated a ton of assets while LBJ was gone. Had he stayed, perhaps they never get 1?
If he stayed - and committed to stay - I think we get one. More 1 year deals? Maybe not.

However, no reason to believe they do not still make the deal for the pick that turned out to be Kyrie if he stayed. Probably more reason to make the deal if he stayed. Improves the team short term (as they'd get Baron Davis instead of Mo Williams to play PG) and no way they'd turn down a chance at a lottery pick WITH Lebron on the team.

Maybe so but Celtics are a good team and sometimes they are gonna win the game. Tatum and Brown were great. Spo can't engineer a sweep every series.
Just some guys who are gonna blame their coach nearly every time their team loses.

Heat need to shoot better from 3 and mainly Crowder. I give Boston credit on the others but Crowder is getting open look after open look and can't hit anything

Seemed like every wide open 3-pointer was a brick. Have to hit at least half of those. Boston couldn't miss last night.

Very true. But don't forget that he said if LeBron didn't drag an injured Lakers squad to the playoffs last year it would ruin his legacy.

That's true. It doesn't matter how many more titles he wins now. His legacy is irretrievably broken.

The Lakers should probably cut him immediately so as to remove his taint from the organization. lol

well, i'm ok with either team coming outta the East, but if Miami makes it it'd serve WiggityWack right for running his cock holster so much...

Yeah, Lakers/Celtics renews the rivalry, but Lebron used to play for the Heat.

I think a series with the Heat would be more fun if games had to be played in Miami to see how the crowd reacted.

My guess would be that he would get cheered during introductions, then booed for the rest of the game.

I wouldn't mind see Lebron stick it to Pat Riley again

Guy held a grudge after Lebron won him 2 titles, then was a cuck about it not speaking his mind for 2 years unlike Alpha Gilbert

Also, If the Heat won that would be funny, because Lebron tried to get SPO fired and would likely end his chances of winning in LA...Either option would be funny imo

His legacy is so fucked up now that I will no longer focus on his harline. Now it's all about reminding people that LeBron failed big-time last season. It's an embarrassment to the Lakers organization that he's wearing the Purple 'n Gold.

Lakers Heat in the Finals would make Wiggy explode. @DJ is the only one that doesn't see that.

The Celtics were 12-38 from 3 pt range last night (31.5%).

Boston has not shot 3 pointers well in this series, either.

Miami shot worst. I would've gladly taken 31% from 3 last night.

No doubt... the C's were hardly "can't miss", though.

I don't think there has been a single game in the series where the C's have shot well from deep... that may be true for the Heat, too... playoff defense/hustle/energy can be the death of 3 pt shooting.
