Series Thread: NBA Finals: Los Angeles Lakers vs. Miami Heat

Nah, not giving 5-1 odds.

Scared?

 

[Wamu]

He has lost his touch.

Thanks for the laugh.


You really don't understand how the league works. Put Pop on any team that has multiple stars and he's taking them all the way to the Finals. Yes he's that great of a coach. And he's by far the best coach currently in the league. But go ahead and judge him just on this season.

I agree he has had a great career and can be considered one of the top coaches of all time but he is becoming stale as a coach.

Explain why he's all of the sudden "stale as a coach".

How did he do this year?

So you are judging his coaching abilities on only this year. Nothing else needs to be said.

Yes, he has lost his touch. It happens to the best of them.

Okay. As long as you believe it that's all that matters. But not many (if any) would agree with you.

I don't care if anyone agrees with me but this is how I see it.

You should start a thread about it. See if anyone agrees with you. Not joking either. I don't think many would agree that Pop has lost his coaching touch.

You seem butt-hurt about my opinion.

 

[bksballer89]

Crazy how peaceful heat & lakers fans are towards each other. Had this been 10 years ago then we would have been at each other throat.

Not this nonsense again? So you think because I disagree I'm somehow upset? You play your silly little game whenever someone doesn't agree with what you're saying. There's something wrong with you.

This is my last response to you on this subject. Bye now.

If I pretend to agree with you and say Pop is a lousy coach now will you return?

Wait, hold up let's get one thing straight, i'm not here to shit on the Heat. The opposite in fact. They've been nothing but impressive as a whole ever since Lebron left six years ago and i've got a lot of respect for the organization.

But let's be honest here, they don't match up very well with the Lakers. AD is a lot better than Bam and Lebron is a lot better than Jimmy. That's no slight on them, it's just the way it is.

Yes I admit, I was premature to compare the games the two teams played at the beginning of the year but if the series had gone 2-0 in the favor of the Heat, somebody would have mentioned that too by now. A lot has changed since December and the Heat have gotten significantly better. But so have the Lakers.

It is 1 thing to say that AD and LeBron are easily the best 2 players on the court. That is fact.

But, that doesn’t mean the Heat don’t match up well.

The Blazers, Rockets and Nuggets literally had no answer for certain matchups. The Heat have an answer for every lineup the Lakers can put on the court.

That doesn’t mean they are going to win. I don’t think they are.

But I also don’t think there is another team in the entire league better equipped to guard the Lakers effectively.

FUCK YOU!!

We're all older now, it's just sports. And with the shitshow of 2020 ongoing, not much energy to hate people for a game.

Okay. As long as you believe it that's all that matters. But no one agrees with you.
