DOA.

Also, that's a really smart move to say Duncan is the generations best.


You beat him, it ups your standing. You lose it doesn't look as bad.


Saying "Duncan is third behind Kobe and Shaq" just gives the Spurs more fuel, beating him doesn't mean as much, losing to him invites ideas that you're behind Kobe and Shaq.


Smart PR and mind game move.

But TD is better than Kobe

But TD is better than Kobe

Agree to Disagree. But it's the smart play regardless. If I was in Lebron's shoes, I would say the same thing.

No reason to preemptively give the Spurs extra bulletin board material and diminish my own accomplishments If I end up winning.

 

[exarkun]

Great article about my boy BOSH.

Gotdamn, he really does everything he can to help them win. When the Heat lose this series and they realize they need a center, fat elvis better scoop his ass up.

In reality any of those 3 could rep the best of the gen status

TD gets jobbed because he is whiny and boring

TD>Kobe. Accept it bro.

Not until you accept PG > Melo

They are usually bashing him so that's a breathe of fresh air.

Yeah, can't think of an athlete in the NBA who gets more undue negative press than LeBron.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Skip is yelling at me through the TV talking about "my spurs". You got Skip on your side, I feel confident.

We got game 1. Lets do this, lets go heat!!!

 

[BadAss2961]

All the "experts" picking this to be a long series. I don't think so.

Whoever wins this series will do so comfortably. Either the Spurs will school them or they won't.

going with my dawg mang flo rida wit da heat sweep



we already won yo

99 problems and a xbox one.

Never rooted for the Spurs in my life. First time for everything I guess.

Skip also called heat to win last year.

I kind of feel like this is true. Their styles are so different, it either works or it doesn't. The only things that could extend the series are Pop's adjustments, Wade, role players going hot or cold, if the Heat go back to sleep like against the Pacers...

hmmm maybe it could go more than 5 games.

 

[Syphon Filter]

He's full of shit. Ain't no one sweeping.

 

[Blackace]

Not until you accept PG > Melo

Bernard King or D Wilkins would have been the better answers

 

[jjasper]

DOA.

But how it has the INFINITE POWER OF THE CLOUD™.

I guess I want the Spurs to win so I can feel less bad about the sweep.

Looks like I'm moving to Houston #InsideNews

Well those two are obvious. Melo's on pace to be the most disappointing player of his generation.

 

[pilonv1]

Bernard is the most forgotten guy in NBA history, was a total beast

Naw

Bolton is

Seeing tmac warm up on tv

edit:makes sense.

[thekad]

Alright guys, the prediction you've been waiting for....


Heat in 4.

 

[Nori Chan]

Alright guys, the prediction you've been waiting for....

So it's confirmed to be 5 games?

 

[Subitai]

Ok home with popcorn! Prove me wrong Pop.

 

[Blackace]

Well those two are obvious. Melo's on pace to be the most disappointing player of his generation.

Pfft his stats are fairly crazy...

Bernard is the most forgotten guy in NBA history, was a total beast

The NBA ignores the coke era his 30+ ppg season in 84 was epic

 

[Vire]

Gregg Popovich pregame, "We haven't played in a long time, so that's my biggest concern. I don't really know what to expect."

 

[The Frankman]

I would watch that movie.

 

[thekad]

Also lol @ the XBOne. What a disaster.

 

[MiamiWesker]

Any Heat fans here in the coward wagon? That wagon better be empty.

 

[Vahagn]

Pfft his stats are fairly crazy...

He's not a bust. Busts like Thabeet and Beasley don't matter. He's disappointing because it's 10 seasons in and he's still a one trick pony.


He's like a more skilled version of Die by the Pipe. It took Wade, Durant, Lebron, even Paul George less than 5 seasons to realize you need to play defense, rebound, and play-make.


Melo with all the same tools is going on 10 seasons and he's only marginally better at those categories. He's disappointing because his potential and ceiling was no lower than a Wade or a Durant or a Kobe.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

man the hate is so strong in you .... its made you delusional

Everything is going to be okay.

 

[Pimpwerx]

Yay! Serge is finally gonna update the Heat mural on 29th street, if we win the championship. We can get Ray, Shard and Birdman on there.

PEACE.

 

[Cloudy]

LMAO Shaq

We shot out their tires. That coward wagon ain't going nowhere. PEACE.

Lol at the baby wearing the shoe

What is with the xbone posts in this thread?

 

[Emwitus]

spurs in 5.

 

[Vire]

Any Heat fans here in the coward wagon? That wagon better be empty.

Nope, feeling good tonight.

 

[Vahagn]

man the hate is so strong in you .... its made you delusional

He's 10 seasons in and he's got nothing to show for it. One scoring title. No chips, Two 2nd round appearances, No all NBA First Team Selections. No All NBA Defense selections. No All Star MVP's, no regular season MVP's. Literally his scoring title is his only hardware of any kind


I'm a fan of Melo, always have been. But he's a guy who had the package to be a complete player, and has just refused to do so, except in temporary flashes. That's infinitely more disappointing than just being a bust right away.

 

[jobber]

I'm so excited for the burial of the heat

and 1 for the thumb

 

[vas_a_morir]

Heat in 5.
