NBA Finals Discussion Thread

[Enasic]

LeBron is the biggest to blame if you ask me. He's supposed to be the leader of the team. He's been in the finals what, 7 times already? He's the one who gets criticized the most for his failures in the finals yet he comes out and plays like it's an exhibition game. I have not seen him even TRY to project his will after two games and for the most part looks like a guy who knows the series is already over and doesn't really give a shit.

You do realize there is zero chance they get rid of the conferences. It would be like suggesting MLB baseball do away with the American and National Leagues.

Well that shows what you know because they've already discussed it/are still currently discussing it.

This series is so boring that ESPN has spent three times as much time talking about Warriors vs Showtime Lakers than they have Warriors vs Cavs

Cleaveland came to play tonight

But at half, i still get the sense the warriors are going to win this one.

Its weird. He tries to finess his plays when he should force them, and when he forces and misses you feel like he should try more finess... But if you watch enough lebron you know he doesnt have a lot of finess. Thats by far the biggest difference from mj. If he was as flexible as mj he would be better than mj.

I think he's struggling to adapt to his loss of athleticism too.

Either way, funny to think Warriors doing all this without much of anything from Curry.

Ive always thought he was a clunky player. I dont think it helps hes done way more strength training than mj ever did. It tightens your tendons. Look at rose or curry... They dont lift much and they are much better bbal players than their size says they should be.

When Warriors shots arent falling, they really lose themselves.

Thats true of every jump shooting team in NBA history.

Yea their offense is off tonight. Not the first time this has happened this playoffs. Theyll bounce back

Give cred to cleaveland too. They played lights out.

I expected the Cavs to win one handily but I thought it would be next game.

Well at least we can say there was some level of drama at some point

 

[bamainatlanta]

Yeah, but keep in mind I'm coming at this from the stand point that I wasn't going to be shocked if the GS Warriors won it. Just kind of went with a knee jerk feel in this poll.

The more I watch this GS team the more they remind me an amped version of the '93 Suns, who IMO are one of the more underrated "great/very good" teams of the last 20-30 years.

Still can't believe the 93 Bulls took all 3 in their house, correct?

This has to be the most boring playoffs I can remember.

This year is the most blowouts in playoff history by far.

I've barely watched any playoff games and I've barely missed anything

 

[Benchmob757]

How do you beat a team by 30 then lose by 30 the next game? Doesn't make sense. 10 points, maybe 15, but 30? What's going on these playoffs?

This postseason really does suck. I didn't watch game 3, but by the looks of it, it wasn't really an exciting game. Also, the Cavs should tell Love he keeps failing the concussion protocol, even if he doesn't.
