Anyone think last night's game is going to effect Harrison Barnes market?
I couldn't believe how many open 3s he missed.
Yea I think he was like 2-14 or something.
Side note - looks like Dario Saric may not come over this year. 100% right choice for him in my eyes due to the 15 million he'd be leaving on the table, but really would've liked to see him come over this year. Sucks having to wait 3 seasons to see anyone from that draft play as it is. It'll be the 4th for him now.
I hate draft and stashes.
Lebrowwwwn
Warriors are still winning the series but LOL, it was not smart to piss of Lebron. He has beasted the last two games.Quote:

If the Warriors somehow manage to lose game 7, there may be a mass suicide of fans.
Except most of those fans are bandwaggoners soooo... probably not. :P
Yeah they will just immediately go to store.nba.com and buy Cavs gear.
Just remember...whoever wins...Drake will love them.
Stop making me sad Cheat.
Dude...I have to see Drake hang out at Kentucky games a few times a year...for no reason at all.Quote:

So....pretty sure most of the hate accrued by James is gone right? No matter what, he brought a championship to Cleveland. He could go play for the Warriors next year and nobody would or should care right? Crazy. That game was awesome. One of the best I've ever seen and considering all the blow outs, perfect way to end the season.
That was one of the best game 7's ever and probably one of the best we will ever see. Can definitely see LeBron leaving Cleveland now that he brought them a championship. Can also see them trading Love in some sort of a deal to get LeBron the team he wants. At somepoint in their careers we'll see LeBron with D Wade, CP3 and Carmelo on an NBA Roster. Still can't believe how stacked that '03 draft was. Maybe Darko will sign with them for shits and giggles.
man totally had to dvr that game. cant wait to see it. cant wait to swe what skip bayless has to say. Lebron #1
My thoughts: Lebron is still tje best player in the world. I had this oppinion before but this solidifies that opinion. and 2 that gsw team is now not even a top ten all time team sadly. I was so ready to debate it with friends as the #2 best team of all time.
definitely a top 10 team of all time still. don't know what you're talking about.Quote:

Congrats Cavs. I guess this game was rigged too?
They had the best regular season of all time and just couldn't close in the finals. One bad series. And it's one they should've won. Curry was missing shots that he could make with his eyes closed if given the chance again.Quote:

No. But the games that made game 7 possible may have been. A guy posted this on a different forum I frequent a few days ago:Quote:

I believe basketball would be much more entertaining and exciting, if it were not encumbered with such a distracting (at least to some) appearance of engineering of games.
In some ways, I don’t know which would be harder to correct: games appearing to be engineered this much, or games actually being engineered this much. If the games really were being engineered; that would be a pretty easy fix, assuming someone in authority had integrity. But if it’s just an appearance of engineering, then that is much tougher to fix and something pro and college basketball might never recover from.
Regardless, I wish I could watch and enjoy pro and college basketball without having to actively work at pretending I don’t see what appears to be engineering, even if it isn’t.
And I wish persons like Ayesha could, too. It must suck to have to suspect your husband, even just in a heated moment, is in what appears at times to be an engineered profession.
I wonder if the NBA and the media-gaming complex appear to be reaching a point where they are going to have to either stop actual engineering, if it were being engaged in, or accept that their product appears engineered and begin marketing it that way.
It seems unlikely they can have it both ways much longer, but you never know.
For a long time Neo did not care about the Matrix; then he did.
Agent Smith knew about the Matrix and wanted to keep it.
And the world behind The Matrix was more scary than entertaining.
Hard to say how things may go.
All we can really be confident of is that it will eventually go which ever way generates the most revenue.
Rock Chalk!"
It was posted before game 7. It kind of sums up how I feel about the NBA right now.
I think you might have misunderstood what I was trying to convey with my post.Quote:

In a 7 game series, the best team wins, period.
Not if one or multiple games are being fixed. Then the best team can lose. I still think Golden State is better than Cleveland.
They're clearly not manon. And you cannot fix a 7 game series. I'm sorry but ya'll need to get a grip. I wish I could blame all my teams failures on cheating and fixes, lol.Quote:

You can fix a 7 game series actually, we may have just seen it in fact. Draymond Green did not deserve to be suspended for game 5. Had Green been playing, I think Golden State probably would have won the series in 5.
In terms of personality, LeBron seems way more objectionable than Curry. I just do not understand why people like LeBron at all. He's an ego-maniacal, self-centered, narcissistic diva. He throws his teammates and coaches under the bus when his team loses. He never holds himself accountable when his team loses. He whines about every call that doesn't go his way. He lobbies for other players to be suspended during finals games. I could go on.
Also, Vegas has Golden State as the favorites to win in 2017.
He's good at basketball. (probably the best)
He's top 10. Maybe top 5.
The donkey faced fuck deserved to be suspended against OKC and wasn't. The W's dont get to wine about shit being fixed after that.Quote:

Here's my take:Quote:

2) Draymond cries after EVERY single call, makes LeBron look normal in that aspect.
3) If you listen to seasoned NBA veteran's speak they always talk about Tim Duncan complaining the most. It's just not outwardly done for cameras and fans to see. At least it was discussed on the radio a lot this week.
4) Curry missing open 3's and GS role players missing shots in key situations (or entire games in Barnes case) is what cost them the championship, not the officiating/suspensions.
5) LeBron's performances in past 2 finals have been unheard of. He's now one of 3 people to triple double game 7 (joining Jerry West and James Worthy), 3rd players with 3 MVPs and 3 Finals MVPs (Joining Magic and MJ) and his game 6 stat line had never been done before. He's the first person ever to lead a series of any length in Points, Assists, Rebounds, Steals and Blocks (that's just insane). Led his team to the first ever comeback in 31 tries in NBA finals being down 3-1. LeBron is easily a top 5 player of all time probably top 2-3. He's #2 in my book.
6) GS was the better team, but LeBron and Kyrie got it done. Gotta give credit to Cleveland's defense for shutting GS down in their wins.
Warriors celebrated every made 3 like they had just won the championship. That is infinitely more annoying than anything LeBron has done. Even his stupid announcements and what not.
