lebron james is the reason why this team is competitive. if it wasn't for him this team would not even get a god damn bronze medal. if it weren't for him the heat wouldnt have even made it to the playoffs


god all those wasted years in cleveland such goat numbers i would have predicted he would have at least 5 championships if he had a supporting cast

oh and that post game is flawless

 

[G17]

Coach Krzyzewski clearly disgusted by that pass haha.

This doesn't look like American football so no.

 

[ShinAmano]

This is the most popular sport in the US?

[Levyne]

This is the most popular sport in the US?

Usually considered behind American Football (gridiron?)

 

[The Insane Dufresne]

KD!!

 

[Knux-Future]

This is the most popular sport in the US?

No..I think the NFL and Baseball are more popular.

 

[Gorillaz]

Replay of the Vince Carter dunk on Weis.

My God Vince Carter stole Weis' soul on that dunk. Weis didn't want any of the NBA after that.

Weis aint about that life

 

[Grover Cleveland]

This is the most popular sport in the US?

[giga]

Tradition and stuff.

wut? lol no. It goes: NFL > MLB > NBA > Hockey

 

[demigod]

No..I think the NFL and Baseball are more popular.

Pretty sure Baseball is behind golf.

 

[lush]

wut? lol no. It goes: NFL > MLB > NBA > Hockey

College football/basketball are both way more popular than hockey.

Bert Le Clos interview for those who missed it on the BBC. It's "UNBELIEVABLE".

[Gorillaz]

Football is more popular then basketball but bball has more variety

Also baseball being more popular then basketball? wat?

 

[Smokey]

I don't think MLB is more popular than the NBA tho..

could be wrong

 

[The Frankman]

Ok LeBron stylin on that fastbreak.

Pretty sure Baseball is behind golf.

Golf isn't remotely close to the MLB.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

Pretty sure Baseball is behind golf.

Ah forgot about golf. That's barely a sport though

and goddamn lebron is the best passer in the NBA ever

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Tunisia getting the three pointers and not a lot else...

 

[demigod]

Ok LeBron stylin on that fastbreak.

Golf isn't remotely close to the MLB.

lol it was a joke. But yeah I'm pretty sure its NFL > NBA > MLB > Hockey

 

[Mgoblue201]

Nope. It's a higher tier apparently.

I have Comcast cable but everytime I tried to watch a stream it told me I had to upgrade to XFinitity.

I only have basic cable, but I'm able to stream video (though it took nearly a full day to register an account with Comcast). The NBC site says that it only requires a TV subscription service that includes MSNBC and CNBC to access everything.

 

[The Insane Dufresne]

Dem threes keep falling....

 

[The Frankman]

HAHAHAHAHHAAHAHH WHAT A FLOP BY THAT TUNISIAN PLAYER. It's funnier that it's vs. Chris Paul!

 

[rekameohs]

lol it was a joke. But yeah I'm pretty sure its NFL > NBA > MLB > Hockey

MLB is bigger than NBA

 

[tino]

Hehe China and US medal count tie again. I am sure the US media want to find a way to put US on top.

....wat.

Oh well. I'll try again later.

 

[Diprosalic]

and goddamn lebron is the best passer in the NBA ever

i don't think so.

 

[ag-my001]

Crowd is behind Ingolfsdottir in Badminton, can she force a third set?!

 

[Kjellson]

Is the scoring in beach volleyball the same as regular volleyball (first to 25 points, first to 3 sets, 15 on last etc.)?

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

MLB is bigger than NBA

Seriously. NBA only ever gets good ratings during the playoffs. MLB at least gets decent ratings during the regular season for rivalry games.

Not to mention the MLB season is so fucking long, it permeates American culture for nearly the entire year.

 

[Talon]

lol it was a joke. But yeah I'm pretty sure its NFL > NBA > MLB > Hockey

More like NFL >> MLB >> NBA=NHL

Revenue figures
NFL: $11 billion
MLB: $7 billion
NBA: $3.8 billion
NHL: $3.3 billion

Not really. The past few years ratings have been higher than they ever have.

 

[PBY]

Guys- this prob gets asked a ton, but is there a legal stream of the game? NBC.com is confusing as hell

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

i don't think so.

Dude come on. Who is better?

 

[ag-my001]

Guess not, four match points can be fought off, but the fifth one is always tricky.

 

[G17]

Ah forgot about golf. That's barely a sport though

Steve Nash is the best passer in the NBA today but Lebron would definitely be pretty equal to Nash/Paul if he played that role more often.

Yeah baseball somehow makes buckets of money

In terms of popularity though he probably had it right.

That's the link without commercials or commentary.

MLB season from Spring Training-Playoffs -> roughly 8 months
NBA Season from Training Camp-Playoffs -> 9 months
NFL training camp Voluntary OTA's-Playoffs -> 9+ months

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

Er, yes? If you look at revenue and ratings, MLB is almost double the popularity of the NBA.

Right now it's more like:
NFL = Sex >>>> College Football >>> Drinking >>>>>>> Food >>>>>> Everything else

 

[Smokey]

This has nothing to do with what I bolded.

And I didn't mean to say higher than they ever had I meant since the Jordan era.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Isn't there MLB games like every day?

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

MLB season from Spring Training-Playoffs -> roughly 8 months
NBA Season from Training Camp-Playoffs -> 9 months

Hm, I stand corrected. For some reason I thought it was the other way around. Sorry for the mistake guys.

The Women's clean and jerk was pretty crazy. Lady gets the gold and goes back for style points.
