^@JSM If you think the Thompson comparisons are bad...I have to listen to the ABC announcing crew describe Harden as "the greatest". I know I have heard it more than three times. Ain't crazy or had a few either.
What's so pathetic about the East is that at this point, I'm not even rooting for the Hawks because I love the game and a GS/ATL finals would be bad for the league. LeBron is the only way the finals would even be interesting.
Atl showed that their biggest streanght in season is also their biggest weaknes in the play offs,team game...they dont have top dog,go to guy...they dont even have clear #2 guy...when times get tough they dont know who to give ball...
Now that it is painfully obvious we have another Lebron finals on our hands, it's time for my 5 year tradition of totally disconnecting from the nba for the next few weeks. I'll be back when the draft happens. I was sooooooooo hoping for ATL/GS.
These guys are injury prone ... It probably won't prevent Lebron to get to the Finals a couple more times after this season ... BUT it probably will prevent him to win another title ... Change his nickname from Lebronze to Lesilver ... he's going to end up with a 2-5 or 2-6 record in the Finals
Does the Hawks have someone in the starting lineup who is not injured? besides the SAS-LAC series, it was a pathatic playoffs up until now. maybe the worst I can remember, unless there's gonna be an epic finals.
^ I think watching the Clippers go down in flames like that was pretty cool, but otherwise I agree. The entire Eastern Conference playoffs has been a complete joke. Pathetic.
^ yeah. If cleveland gets burn in the finals 4-0 /4-1 its gonna be the "humilation of the lakers enemies" playoffs - clippers gets burned after hugh expactations, rockets and howard sees how weak they are and lebron gets burn in another finals.
Finals are... well, Finals. We'll see how GSW handles pressure. I would love for them to sweep both Rockets and Cavs but i think the latter will put up a fight.
Delly is the white version of Patrick Beverley. He's dirty. I hope someone plants him one of these days. He has it coming. He gets another key player kicked out of the game. That's just terrible. Taj and Horford kicked out, Korver injured.
Delly knows what he's doing. There are 2 things that tell me that he is purposely doing these things...... 1.) Zero remorse afterwards. He just rolls up on Horford and the first thing he says to him in the replay is don't go over my back. 2.) Both in the Horford and Taj incidents during the review the camera pans to the CLE bench and they are all laughing and joking with Delly. 3 incidents in two rounds is not a coincidence, it's a pattern.
Terrible last play. Next time play for the win instead of playing for the Cavs to get a final shot off your miss. Morons. It's the playoffs, win or go home. Next time just dribble the clock out.
Hope all the commentators are wearing their proper attire -- knee pads and hair ties. Bron's d*** is going to be sore with the polishing job they're going to do on it tonight. Can't wait for Curry to shoot them out of the finals by himself.
Well time to stay off of ESPN for the next couple days, all they are going to talk about is how a banged up Lebaby carried his team to a win. I hate how he had to act out his cramps and soreness, like that one instance where they fouled and he waved to the bench to be taken out, he limped a few steps and then waved the sub back to the bench. It's ridiculous that the only way they'd win is if they pull this dirty stuff. I hope somebody knocks Dellawhatever out cold, bring Artest back, give that little pest an elbow.
I think I may have watched one game in the Leastern conference playoffs so far. Haven't watched a second of this series and I'm glad I didn't. LeBron would never leave the East, it's a cakewalk to the finals every single year.
