2016 Playoff Discussion Thread

That shit was hillariou. His own teammate hits him and he goes down like a sack of potatoes. I dont hate Lebron, but **** me, you are the perfect athlete. If this is Rocky 4, Im creating Lebron. 6'8 240 plus of solid muscle with the jumping ability and speed of a God. He is a star in any sport he wanted to play. Dont get it twisted. He would have destroyed the NFL if he wanted to. He is the perfect specimen of a human in sports. Why must you act like a *****? I mean if that elbow hurt you then I can knock you out easily. I dont believe that. You are a God among men physically. Stop being such a pussy!

OKC is owning the Warriors

we know how fast they can come back...but damn...they aren't looking like a 73 win team right now

 

[BNB]

If OKC blows this lead... man.

 

[Scoot26]

:jawdrop: I'm amazed at how relatively poorly GSW has played this series.

 

[SilenceS]

OKC length is bothering them. Also, OKC just keeps attacking the rim. Draymond Green is playing like absolute shit.

Even if the Warriors do right ship, they will never top the 96 Bulls as the greatest team ever. They may have the regular season record by one game, but the 96 Bulls would NEVER have lost a playoff game like this. Hell, none of Jordan's Bulls teams would have.

The '96 Bulls arent a jump shooting team.

yeah, that 72 win Bulls team was dominant in the post-season. 11-1 before they got to the Finals, then went up 3-0 against the Sonics. Ultimately won in 6.

..... Luc Longley was their fucking center in an era the post game still dominated.

Really, you want to say they weren't a team dominated by 3 point shooting.

The Warriors attempted more 3 point shots through 48 games then the Bulls did in 82.

Good thing I found.

Warriors may be fucked since Draymond should be suspended next game. The Thunder are totally different this post season than the regular season. They're actually stepping on people's throats now.

Durant and Westbrook could go against any duo in NBA history. When they are on, not a whole lot is going to beat them.

That site did my work for me.

I was actually going to do an article for CCS after the season ended on the 96 Bulls vs 2016 Warriors. I too had see the O-Ratings and D-Ratings favored the 96 Bulls.

My bias conclusion still would have been the 96 Bulls. Playoff performance was going to be the true deciding factor in that.

Its important to note that the Bulls were a vastly superior rebounding team that year. Offensive Rebounds were nuts in addition to total rebounds. Much like how OKC is the #1 rebounding team, and they are really getting GSW in that category.

True of most Superstar [well, my definition of Superstar anyways] duos in history.

They arent that many superstar duo's in history if you look back. But, I agree with your post.

 

[SilenceS]

I got a feeling Draymond act is going to get tiresome to the Warriors. Artest, Rodman type tiresome.

Shaq-Kobe
Jordan-Pippen
Magic-Kareem (before he got too old, even then they still won some titles)
Malone-Stockton (probably much like Durant-Westbrook in the sense they have struggled to get the Finals)
Moses Malone-Erving

That's what we got since 1980.

Clone and I discussed the 70s and 60's before, but I can't remember the exact duos. The 70s are generally a weak period IMO. The early 60's have Cousy-Russell and Baylor-West

 

[Novak]

OKC cant be stopped. The doubters are plenty, but they haven't cared.

I am loving it. Durant and Westbrook are fucking nightmares for anyone they go against.

I wouldnt mind Durant going against Lebron and Durant calling him sawft!

The showtime Lakers are like the best team ever to play with on NBA2k16. Lol
