The C's deserve to lose this one... you get to the line, but y'all keep missing those FTs...

King Postwhore · « **Reply #876 on:** May 25, 2018, 08:54:57 PM »

Yup. They could have had this game. Btw, I can't wait to see Lebron play tired again this Sunday.

Not a LeBron fan, but I wouldn't bet against him in a HUGE game like that... as much as I hate to see this happen, but I bet the Cavs will win in Game 7.

Another ridiculous performance. Imagine if he had a team worth a damn around him.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #879 on:** May 25, 2018, 09:16:49 PM »

That was sarcasm. Those last 2 - 3 pointers were ridiculous. I did rag on him for the drama. He's a soap opera star. So was Paul Pierce. I hate that.

KevShmev · « **Reply #880 on:** May 25, 2018, 09:21:51 PM »

That is one thing I find annoying about basketball: most of the players whine about calls (or non-calls) way too much. Heck, Jayson Tatum is a great young player, but is already a veteran when it comes to whining for calls. James does it way too much as well.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #881 on:** May 26, 2018, 04:52:49 AM »

Yeah they all do. What's worse is when they are not even touched or they actually foul someone and complain.

KevShmev · « **Reply #882 on:** May 26, 2018, 05:47:47 AM »

That's almost as bad as certain quarterbacks who beg for flags when a defender breathes on them...

Elway? Manning?

No, the more recent QB with 3 Super Bowl losses.

Only one has a website called Manningface.

Well, Boston fans have to think of something to do in between hurling racial slurs.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #887 on:** May 26, 2018, 06:31:53 AM »

I'm sorry. What state rioted recently? Tee Hee.

KevShmev · « **Reply #888 on:** May 26, 2018, 06:41:21 AM »

South Carolina?

King Postwhore · « **Reply #889 on:** May 26, 2018, 06:45:09 AM »

Looks like we've started the game 7 smack talk!

KevShmev · « **Reply #890 on:** May 26, 2018, 07:00:34 AM »

The Celtics are the one Boston I don't mind. Plus, my 13-year old nephew loves the Celtics because he is a big Jayson Tatum fan, so I sorta hope they win so he gets some enjoyment out of watching. Even though I am a LeBron fan, I am not sure how much fun it will be seeing him get drilled in the finals since the team he would have dragged there would have no chance, only to have idiots everywhere needling him for having another finals loss, as if losing earlier in the playoffs is better (although it actually is for your legacy).

King Postwhore · « **Reply #891 on:** May 26, 2018, 07:05:05 AM »

It would be a feather in the C's cap if the get to the finals with their 2 top players out.

KevShmev · « **Reply #892 on:** May 26, 2018, 07:07:30 AM »

What's gonna be really scary is next year, assuming Irving and Hayward return and stay healthy. That deep roster with that coach...yikes.

Tell me about it. The Raps missed their window. And witht he 6rs coming on strong, just finishing 3rd would be an accomplishment. They surely aren't winning the East next year - especially with a new coach coming in ... whoever that might be.

It seems very similar to the Eagles season.

No doubt. As long a Wentz can stay healthy you're in for a long run.

Just tuned into the game.... uh oh....

Azyiu · « **Reply #897 on:** May 26, 2018, 08:06:37 PM »

As long as the Rockets can keep the same focus and intensity in the second half, I seriously doubt the Dubs can come back and force a game 7. The Rockets, especially Eric Gordon, look like they come to WIN this game; but the Dubs look to me like they are playing like not to lose.

KevShmev · « **Reply #898 on:** May 26, 2018, 08:45:17 PM »

Klay and Curry bombing shots left and right now. Durant having another mediocre game.

Azyiu · « **Reply #899 on:** May 26, 2018, 08:53:50 PM »

Wow! What a great great 3rd qtr! Intensity and tension the ECF can't offer...

Azyiu · « **Reply #900 on:** May 26, 2018, 09:15:29 PM »

Damn! The Dubs tuned it ON in the second half on both ends, something I haven't seen in 2 full games... now let's see how the Rockets adjust for Game 7 at home.

KevShmev · « **Reply #901 on:** May 26, 2018, 10:22:50 PM »

They better pray to the basketball gods that Chris Paul's hamstring heals fast. It is hard to imagine them winning a game 7 against a team with that much shooting talent. They balled like crazy tonight and still got their doors blown off.

lonestar · « **Reply #902 on:** May 26, 2018, 11:26:53 PM »

Damn man, when those boys get rolling, they are in a whole other dimension. Here's hoping they can stay hot through Monday.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #903 on:** May 27, 2018, 04:34:45 AM »

Jesus... I went to bed when it was tied at 74. Da fuq Houston?? More points in the 1st Q than the entire 2nd half?? 9 points in the 4th!?!?!?!?

TAC · « **Reply #904 on:** May 27, 2018, 09:15:00 AM »

Kevin Love is out tonight.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #905 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:11:35 PM »

Damn good first quarter for the C's. Their defense is the key.

Lebron can't do it all and needs others to step up their game. Big I'm the C's key on James and make the others beat you. Also, do what Smart did. James bulls his way to the hoop. Pick up a charge.

Azyiu · « **Reply #906 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:23:29 PM »

Not a LBJ fan, but I sincerely feel sorry for the guy. He is trying to win it all by himself with virtually no help... no one on the Cavs bother to step up? Really?

King Postwhore · « **Reply #907 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:27:19 PM »

It's all on him. He could score 50 and it wouldn't matter.

KevShmev · « **Reply #908 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:27:22 PM »

The Cavs starting guards have combined to average 7 points a game on the road this series. That is beyond pathetic.

They have zero tonight so far.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #909 on:** May 27, 2018, 07:30:56 PM »

Here comes the Cavs. Other players stepping up.
