Official 2016 NBA Playoffs Thread: Conference Finals: Warriors / Thunder | Cavs / Raptors

I got mad respect for Lebron James outside of his NBA uniform. Dude is extremely charitable. Work ethic is crazy. Great example for black youth.

The basketball player Lebron James deserves the slander. The only time I'll give him a pass was the Spurs sweep.

Dude has faked injuries, and called out players on his own team. Also didn't the Cavs finish number one in the league his last two years in Cleveland before he left? How do you not have a squad yet you have the overall best record in the league back when the East was somewhat legit.

Man what? Ray allen and shane were for sure old vets. Just because they contributed doesnt make them
Not old. You're being ridiculous calling them #2 options at that point in their careers on mediocre teams come on.

And those role players you mentioned were indeed good role players, but hardly the type of players that would make up a super team and that was the overall point

dude the 1st year they had wade-lebron-battier-bosh-haslem a little weak bench though , 2nd year allen-wade-lebron-bosh-andersen with a bench of chalmers-lewis-cole etc , isnt the 2nd year a super team team ? 4 future HOF and excellent role players , so whats your super team like wade-lebron-bosh-allen-kobe-durant-curry together ? get real

Michael Jordan couldn't even win a title without Scottie Pippen coming to his rescue

I swear half of these LeBron haters never saw a Bulls game in the 90s

Meanwhile they worship teams like the Warriors built almost exclusively through free agent signings and non-home grown talents. Iggy saved that team last year and he wasn't even drafted by them

The warriors core was built through the draft bro. Thats homegrown

Name one important player from their team not named Wardell that they actually drafted

I'll wait

Klay? Draymond? You can't be serious.

Klay? You mean... The 2 time all star who has accomplished nothing?
And draymond? The guy drafted 34th overall he hasn't even been an all star twice yet
If they mattered they would've won finals MVP, but they didn't.
Igoudala and other valuable free agents like about make this team what it is

 

[shoeking2102]

Final predictions for tonight, go

Okc by 7

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Warriors by 12

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Warriors by double digits. Easy. Got $13 on it.

I think calling the Heat a "super team" is a crazy way of tarnishing bron's legacy and it just further shows how much people dont realizs that role players matter in the playoffs

Wade was dying, bosh was bosh, and the rest of the team was filled with old vets on their last legs or just flat out marginal NBA players.

The warriors are more of a super team than those heat teams were.

Dudes call the Heat a super team to discredit LBJ, but yet they never take credit away from Wade for playing on the same exact team.



Back to playoff talk for me though

 

[Air Pope]

I honestly have no clue who's going to win tonight. But I'll go w/ OKC by 5.

 

[silverbackhoney]

I'm taking Cavaliers by 4

[@=https://niketalk.com/members/139814"we have no tables left," look over his shoulder and it's nobody in there. Then we stumble into Urban Roots because they thought Urban meant city, did the Simpsons in and out gif with a quickness but me and Crystal stayed a minute. Vibe may have changed by now, or maybe it's different on weekends. I was just mad uncomfortable, not really my lowkey type of crowd. I'd rather watch at AppleBees like you, especially if they got TouchTunes[/spoiler]

Thunder finna be up in this thang

Because he was on the team. Any roster with him on it is the best team in the East. You really going to claim those Larry Hughes, Donyell Marshall, Jumaine Jones, Daniel Gibson, Eric Snow, Sasha Pavlovic, etc. teams were legit? Almost all of those guys were out of the league 2 yrs after Bron singlehandedly dragged them to the finals

 

[wubalubadubdub]

Lebron is easily the most overrated and underrated player ever.

His narrative is **** as is

 

[mgrand15]

There's no way you were watching basketball when Lebron was on Miami bro.

Be honest.

Shane Battier a #2 option. Lewis an excellent role player

you sound ridiculous. he got to the finals once win trash. he didnt win the east every year till he got decent squads . the narrative that put him on any team and its the best team in the east is stupid and not reality .

. he got there once with his first stint with the cavs. you try to talk ish to haters but you guys pumping him up saying nothing but lies.
