NBA Finals: Cleveland Cavs VS Golden State Warriors

[bksballer89]

Fucking stupid! Why would they have a game on a Friday night? Dumbasses! I never seen a superstar complain so much about the schedule and need so much rest during the season, than Lebron.

Yep im probably going to miss game 4 thanks to the stupid nba. Already had made plans for that Friday night

And "loyal Cavs fan"

And "loyal Cavs fan"

How about "2013 Warriors fan"?

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

How about "2013 Warriors fan"?

Same rarity as a "2013 Cavs fan"

Hmmm... you have a point.

 

[gordontrue]

Wake up! Its Game Day!

Well not in the Finals last year lol. Arguably, not in the playoff this year so far.

I dont know who you are watching. LOL

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

This honestly could be the first potential Finals Rivarly in a long long time.....we have a back to back finals...who saying this isnt hte Finals for the next 2 or 3 years? very easily could be....that would be cool nad good for the league

A bit like the Celtics v Lakers in the early 60s - with the Warriors being the Celtics.

Problem is, in about 4 years time Lebron will be old and useless

 

[gordontrue]

If the Cavs win the title.... LeBron would have more championships than any player and any franchise over the last decade.

Hey @trojanfan12 can you earn your paycheck and sticky this man thread?

Done.

Because he was a Laker is an easy excuse for you isn't it? Kobe was arrogant, but he never tried to make himself bigger than the game, he never team hopped and he never mocked an opponent during the finals.

Too bad you can't say the same about Lebron.

Bigger than the game lol. The thing about Lebron he might be arrogant but he always talks about just being thankful for the opportunity to even play basketball especially when he is the Finals. Something Kobe and MJ rarely did if ever. Lebron is as professional as it gets in his postgame interviews on the court. It is easy to judge Lebron team hopping when Kobe got thrown into a perfect situation and organization, after doing all he could do and willing his team to victories his desire to win was just too strong. Kobe was handed arguably the best center in history and the greatest coach in history, must be nice. Unlike Kobe, Lebron has always been a professional, can't say the same for Kobe.

Done.

Paycheck is in the mail

I am pumped. Hoping we have a great, competitive series. Both teams look like they're a lot better than last year - Cavs, obviously, because they're healthy

At any rate, I expect some really exciting ball for the next couple weeks. Good luck W's fans

 

[Shanemansj13]

Ok, but I still don't see what your point is. Why are Cavs fans so hung up on who the MVP of the series was? The fact that Steph was in your estimation the 3rd best player in the series and the Warriors still won, should actually trouble you more than you should be happy about it.

Edit: And Klay was probably not even in the top 5 players in last years finals.

I'm not hanging myself up on it, I honestly knew it was over before it started Lebron did all he could do. My point has nothing to do with the teams, it had to do with comparing players. No it doesn't trouble me because the best player was Lebron and he didn't have Irving, who is a big key to this team. If the Cavs can defend Klay and 3 ball consistently (very hard to do) I think they can make these games competitive. This series is huge for Curry's legacy and Lebron's.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Lebron has always been a professional...

'The Decision' was professional?!?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Lol he had like 1 bad game in the finals and that's because he was missing shots he normally makes. Other than that one game he almost average 30. Nobody on the cavs can guard him

He struggled in 3 games and from the 3 point line in 3 games total. When you take 23, 17, 19 shot and you get 19, 22, and 25 points especially how often he shoots the 3 that is struggling. You add in the fact he didn't have to guard anyone on defense.

This year will be different, the Cavs have to guard the 3 good again and have their offense clicking at all times. I don't expect Curry to struggle as much as he did last year so the Cavs have to be on their A+ game this entire series.

Wade?

 

[Shanemansj13]

'The Decision' was professional?!?

Not a great decision but compared the things Kobe went through it really doesn't compare. He was accused of r*pe, had feuds with his all-time great coach and center, and much more...so yes compared to that Lebron has been a saint

Yes, when you hold a 1 hour special just to announce what team you're going to play for, you are trying to make yourself bigger than the game. Name one all-time great who has done that.

Also, when did Kobe, or any other all-time great do this?
