NBA Playoffs

Haven't watched a second all year and that won't change moving forward, but glad to see Bron Bron is losing! Yeah **** Cleveland and there burning river. Feel bad for Irving, hate injuries but he is a dookie and one less of them is always a good thing

I haven't either, but I try to catch the Finals and to see LeClev lose is an added bonus.
 
I want LeClev to lose in a humiliating fashion to the Warriors.
 
It's almost unbearable to listen to the God awful announcers slobber over LJ and the Cavs. They don't even hide their bias toward them. I want GS to win even more now because of them.
 
Which team is Dr J on?

He might as well put on the yellow, blue and maroon. Honestly, I knew it was an ex-player, but must have missed him being mentioned several times. I'm surprised GS is even able to take the floor against this All-World Greatness Team.
 
One more game!!! One more game!!!

I am so over LeBron. They are talking about naming him series MVP even if the Cavs lose. REALLY????
 
LJ is the Alex Ovechkin of the NBA. Yea, he will occasionally pass it off, but he is a ball hog. Of course, he's going to score 40 pts a game when you take the majority of the shots.
 
I ******* hope GSW wins tomorrow nite on a last-second shot, just to rip the ******* hearts out of any Cleveland sports fan who still harbors a glimmer of hope. **** those turds.

yes. there's precedent for it. and he absolutely deserves it.

ball hog? the cavs would be losing games by 30-40 points if he wasn't "hogging" the ball.

Not if the team he plays for loses. That makes zero sense. Shouldn't have happened before, either.

uh, yes, if he plays for the team that loses. he's been averaging nearly 37 points a game, and has been pretty much the only reason this series is even competitive. If Love and Kyrie weren't out of the series, the Cavs might very well have won by now. Shouldn't have happened before? It was Jerry West, and yes, Lynn, it should have. I promise you that.

that's why they not win the Championship. Just like the Capitals! One man will not win it on his own. No matter how good he is. He will wear down.

They will not give it to Curry? I'd think they would have to if GS wins. His stats are not too shabby, either.
 
LeBron is hands-down the best player on the planet... but if/when the Cavs lose, he should NOT be series MVP.

Can't deny him that. He's a freak of nature. Even if they lose tomorrow night, they will be the hands-on fav to win it next year.

THANK YOU. Rewarding someone for losing is ridiculous. IF the Cavs win, then yes. Give him the MVP. But to award it to a person whose team lost? NO.
 
Andre Iguodala is the series MVP. Suck it, Cleveland.
 
It's as if God himself looked down upon Cleveland and said "**** these *************"

Averaging 37 points a game while shooting 33% from the field are not MVP type numbers. All the talk about him not having any help is pure rubbish. Tristan Thompson was a double double machine, and thanks to his offensive rebounding, Cleveland was able to steal a few games. Nearly HALF of his rebound total was offensive. That late rally that Cleveland made last night, it wasn't because of LeBron, he kept taking bad fade away jumpers and forcing shots that he was missing. JR Smith stepped up and hit some tough shots and was the ONLY reason that game was in question towards the end.

This is what happens when you give one player so much control over a team. The coach was a puppet and LeBron cannot match wits with a true NBA coach. If I was on his team, I would have quit on him after he made his "of course I'm confident, I'm the best player in the world" comment. He basically said his teammates sucked and he had to do all by himself, like the media already excused him for. I'm glad they lost, maybe now I can read an article that isn't building in excuses for LeBron.
 
First finals MVP to not start every game. Pretty valuable guy. James should have been the MVP. Win or lose, no single player was more valuable to his team during the NBA finals. While unusual, not unprecedented.
 
If it were any other player for any other team, say Kevin Durant, you all know dang well that KD wouldn't have been considered for MVP if his team lost. It's because it's LeBron that the media feels like they have to reward him for just breathing.

I was watching First Take yesterday, and both Skip and Steven A. think that Blatt won't be back next year- not because he lost the finals or is a bad coach, but because LeBron doesn't like him. I wish I had that kind of pull at my job.
 
absolutely true. and Stephen A Smith was suggesting Tyronn Lue replace Blatt.
His racial hypocrisy is mind-boggling.
