[purguy12]

Screw the NBA. This game has me watching the music awards. Screw u NBA. Screw u. I will never forgive u.

Irving, Love and Jr are a combined 13 of 16 from 3...lol.

What is so awesome about the NBA. Is once their two precious All Star teams sweep, we wait 8 days until game 1 of the Finals.

Excellent, excellent scheduling. by day 7 we are all going to be sick of Warriors/Cav pre game talk that the series will feel like its been going on for 3 years.

oh wait.....it has.

You really think the NBA supposed to know that there would be two sweeps? It's not there fault that there will be an 8 day break.

the easiest job in the world has to be coaching the Cavs and warriors...

Team- "any strategy against these shit teams coach?"

Coach- " just go blow them off the court guys"

Can we just get to the finals already? This whole playoffs have been one big exhausting exercise to reach a final that everyone already knew would happen.

Where's the jackass that said Korver and Frye would be more important than Love?

That Fucker should be perma-banned for uttering such blasphemy!

 

[WiggyRuss]

Tristan is 6/6 from the free throw line....guy is locked in. Playing great D, great on the boards....finishing those roll to the basket when they double off him.

the NBA and their Finals is becoming CBB and March Madness. Soon, no one will even follow the NBA until the Finals just like CBB and March Madness.

NBA ratings have been awful all year (Yes blame it on the Election that ended in November, week 3 of the NBA..........................) But the NBA is banking that the Finals goes 7 games and have the highest rating of all time for any NBA games so they can come back and say "see told you we are fine"

Man, you are desperate for someone to argue with, eh?

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Cavs/Warriors prob isnt changing anytime soon either.

Would you bet against it right now for next year? and even the year after?

Depends on who returns.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Exactly. The Celtics need size and a 3 that can score.

Butler, George, Hayward, I could see any of them in play. Though I don't see Ainge giving up the #1 for any of them.

Lot of options. None feel like slam dunks.

adding Fultz and Hayward- and a real PF would help them a lot.

If Griffin wanted to win ---- i think he would be very interesting there.

 

[Black Adam]

Depends on who returns.

i wouldn't bet against it next season. TWO i might...

players age, y'know...

 

[DorianRo]

And I thought the 2005 and 2007 finals were boring. Nothing beats this for boredom. My god.

This playoffs have been a cure for insomnia

It's gonna be Ibaka.

With Horford and Griffin you might as well roll out the red carpet down the lane, right to the rim.

Yes they had a clue we have 2 super teams. Maybe not a sweep but had to know it wouldnt be close. Oh yeah maybe that we had the same finals for 2 years now and about to be 3 now. Next year lets just have cavs and GS play every game we donteven need the other teams to play.

No lie preseason basketball is better to watch.

what? you don't think Griffin's coming back...?

Durant would have to take another 1 and 1 deal or Iggy and Livingston have to take the vet minimum after being renounced.

 

[AlpacaWine]

I wonder if the refs know that they can call a foul on Cleveland.

Kerr isnt even coaching. Think about walton coached them last year and this year kerr isnt coaching the playoffs.

Super teams were ok when other teams had talent in the conferences and other teams had enough talent to still compete and give us a series. Super teams aren't ok when the best opposition is a team like the Celtics or the Spurs full of injuries.
