0fficial 2017-2018 NBA Postseason Thread....NBA Finals Cavs vs Warriors 0-4(dubs back 2 back champs)

[KingTaharqa]

I'm saying consistency in the framing
you got niggas in here that will argue every team that's ever won is better than this one
then argue that they better not lose cause its the best team assembled ever
and then turn around and try and say i shouldn't be happy that they won lol
kind of shit is that?

I dont think every team thats won is better than this one. I do think if you added a top 3 player to most championship teams youd get teams as good or better than the Warriors.

You guys are HEAVILY expected to win given your clear talent advantage so no you wont be showered with praise when you do.

 

[jack walsh13]

Oh I'm fucking no doubt but she kinda ugly but they fuck the best lol.

 

[shaddyvillethug]

We not gonna fail twice in a row.

LEBRON is always guaranteed 2 chips every 4 finals appearance.

Good Luck Thursday Gentleman.

If the greatest player on the planet right now (Lebron) & his team can't beat this Warriors team, what makes yall think Harden was gonna do it especially when Cp3 was out? Lol

Steve Kerr said it best at the post game, his team showed they were more talented. You can talk about coaching, x's & o's, missing 3's all that but the Warriors did what they supposed to do with 4 all stars & 2 MVP players on their roster.

Rockets had two all star caliber players & was down to one in the last 2 games. The warriors did what everybody expected them to do. The only way I see a team beating this Warriors team is assembling a similar loaded team, period.

It's trash though.
Jordan and Pippen and them added Rodman and were the best team and got praised and are still honored to this day or did that not happen? lol

Yall have the second best player on the planet & arguably Curry is in the top 5 as well. Pippen & Rodman were unique stars but neither one I would say is scratching top 5 during that era, maybe you could make a case for Pippen but I doubt it.

Well you and I both know MJs legacy is judged by a different set of rules lol. The Bulls werent coming off a Finals loss when they signed Rodman. They were a 2nd round knockout that wasnt a contender without him. GS was a 73 win team that added a top 3 player after blowing the Finals in 16. Had you guys added no one and got the same team back and avenged that loss (similar to Spurs in '14) it would ve enhanced guys individually. But to stack the deck with Durant and out talent every body its always gonna rub some the wrong way.

My whole thing is be consistent.
Either this team is good always even when you want to make an argument to make like what they're doing isn't special and when they win games too.

I'd like to point out that no team loses and then stays the same. We were just fortunate with the timing to make it happen.
Accolades for the warriors are only brought up in the negative.

I am sure he will play his heart out, I just hope he does not let Durant get back to back Finals MVPs while he is guarding him.

He has too much pride to let that happen.

I dont think he cares. Kawhi and Iggy won Finals MVPs back to back over him. Didnt stop him from being LeBron or people deeming him better than MJ years later. His first Finals loss was 11 years ago and tonight we still had a MJ Bron debate in this thread. Theres literally nothing KD or the Dubs can do to hurt his legacy. This year showed me.

I am still waiting to hear 10 coaches, current players, former players, teammates, or owners say Lebron is the best to ever lace them up.

Who are these creditable "people" you are talking about that said Lebron is better than Jordan or that he is the best ever. Isaiah, JJ Redick... I need help

Who Lebron think or say is the GOAT?

 

[SamSneed]

@Big Tex @SamSneed @Llano @KingTaharqa @spider705
NOTHING BUT RESPECT TO YOU.
you hear me?
nothing but full most utmost respect to you. congratulations on a great season a hard fought series and the future is bright with you.
nothing but respect to you. know that what I say has nothing to do with YOU that I at'd so don't take it personally
it's the niggas that tried to live vicariously through you that's about to have a long couple of days.

so Again let this show that nothing but respect for you guys if I missed some H-Town fans I apologize

All good, our team ran out of gas

3’s can win it all.

I miss 90s ball. Big men ran that shit.

American sports is dyin. Fundamentals is lost.

I just hope baseball remains. I feel it will.

Happy Memorial Day to your pops( I believe you said he is a marine) , rip to my bro.

Isiah Thomas was on TV this morning saying that Bron is better than MJ. Scottie did an interview last week calling Wilt the GOAT and said Bron is better all around than MJ. His own teammate. The MJ is the undisputed GOAT stuff is some 2011 shit bro, you must live under a rock. Every week Chris Broussard is interviewing MJs contemporaries (Kareem, Polynice, Drexler, etc) on his podcast every week and none consider MJ GOAT. They say hes great but always big up some one else as greater. Golden State sweeping LeBron wont change that. Theres more MJ aint the GOAT sentiment today than ever, and its growing.

Fundamentals aren't lost. We pass the ball shoot good shots including jumpers and play defense that's all the fundamentals right there.

Yea he was. R.I.P. your bro man.

MAn dudes was acting like they were allergic. Shit...Capella got his big man on......but I can't get with this 130 points per game bullshit the league has turned into. The league is essentially promoting bad fundamentals. I don't know what's going to be the future for guys coming into the L because they are going to be playing bullshit ball.

 

[KingTaharqa]

They said hes better than MJ. You dont have to be "the best ever" to be better than MJ. Not what that means.

 

[HotNixon36]

Send 10 links of former or current NBA players or coaches saying Lebron is better than Jordan. Should be easy, if its so obvious and I am out of touch.

Leave Isaiah and JJ Redick out, Pippen has more than one video and answer. Didn't Pippen say he was better than Lebron, lol.

Run them videos and links for the board, educate us out of touch cats, lol

If Mikes own teammate he won 6 rings with doesnt believe hes GOAT dont know why we would. Hes never changed from saying Wilt is GOAT just flip flops tween Bron and MJ. Which still says alot.

Ive given you names now you moving goal posts. I promise you next year no matter what happens in the Finals there will be media and former players that vocalize Bron as greater than MJ. Can you guarantee me that the MJ and Bron debates wont happen on TV, print, and in barbershops next year? Jordan is only referenced with LeBron at this point, only thing keeping him relevant.

  Where them links and videos?

The whole board saw you get called on that bullshit, and can't deliver.

Like a hoe, put up or shut up.

Durant is about to put back to back Finals MVPs on Lebron's ass, and it ain't shit he can say or do about it.

in that 2nd half I think Capella only got 3 lowpost touches, he dunked one and the other two he kicked out for a dudes to jack up bad 3's. people keep posting that "live by the 3 die by the 3" quote but that shit was so beyond that. They weren't trying to shoot any midrange jumpers, no cuts to the goal, no nothing just forced 3 after forced 3. james Harden jacked up a 3 soon as they got the ball in the 3rd quarter, he didn't try to drive or swing the ball around jst jacked upa 3....i'm disgusted with that team

The board sees your weak
strawmen arguments for MJ as GOAT. His legacy isnt viewed the same. You already said his shoes are your world so nothing will convince you. Now post some links of MJ dunking on slow white boys 30 years ago and try to convince me its the greatest shit I ever seen.

 

[KingTaharqa]

Durant is about to put back to back Finals MVPs on Lebron's ass, and it ain't shit he can say or do about it.

Durant cant save MJs legacy. He already has 5 Finals losses and people still say hes better.
