Alright, you faggots got me. But, LeBron is still destroying these chumps.

That is actually him.

Anyway, back on topic, I wore my Loud. Proud. Warriors. Playoffs. shirt today that I got at last year's playoffs vs the Clippers. That was the game where the whole Sterling incident happened and the Clips turned their warmups inside out. Anyway, getting a lot of thumbs up and shout outs walking around down town today with this shirt on.

This one:

I gotta be real. Respect for being so self aware in his own stupidity that he signed up for an alt. I mean at least you know you'll probably be banned. But the same stupidity led to him picking the same name. LOL.
 
I could see the Cavs having a slight chance of winning if they chose to turn it into a 90's style basketball game or just try to go Bad Boys but I'm still not sure if that might work.

Furyous alt acct???

Nope, that's not me. The Miami Heat have fans that still cheer for them? I thought the fan base quit after last year.

I am rooting for a good series and hope my team puts up a fight. Everyone hating on the Cavs that is not a Warriors fan CAN BATHE IN A TUB FULL OF SALT. HOW IT FEEL WATCHING THE CAVS IN THE FINALS WHILE YOUR TEAM IS AT HOME? THE SALT STOPS THE TEARS GUYS AND GIRLS SO IT WILL BE OKAY.
 
the cavs just need to rebound and take care of the ball

dubs actually aren't that amazing in the half court--they thrive off the fast break game and cavs i think have been one of the best teams in the playoffs in terms of turnovers

LeBron has an outside shot at being Finals MVP. If he wins, though, it will be a consolation prize while the Warriors hoist the championship.

Man, this felt like a really long week. Predicting GS in 6.

Gm 1: warriors Gm 2: warriors Gm 3: cavs Gm 4: warriors Gm 5: cavs Gm 6: warriors

Very Excited! I know it isn't realistic but I really hope this goes 7. I just want an entertaining finals.

Same here. I stupidly planned a vacation that encompasses games 2-5. And to think this is the first time I'm not going to E3 in a decade (where I usually scramble to catch the 4th quarter of games).
 
Hating on Lebron is mostly about his clownish behavior on, and off, the court. It's also about how he talks a big game but only beat 50+ win teams 7 times and has a 2-3 finals record.

Not bumping...but I agree with this portion. Lebron one of the greatest basketball talents ever, but I seriously hate his juvenile antics sometimes. He reminds me sometimes of Shaq. Being a clown because he can be, not because he's good at it.


I also think he didn't show his coach NEARLY enough respect this year. Regardless of the result, he made his coach seem like a child earning a big paycheck. That rubs me the wrong way.
 
I still hope the Cavs win, not because of any one player, but because Cleveland fans deserve something good.

You mean like being able to draft arguably one of the top 3 basketball players of ALL TIME?

I ain't crying shit for the city of Cleveland. If they want something nice, earn it. (which they might this series)

Go Dubs!!!

OH, and F*ck Charles Barkley's prediction.

Heat jerseys don't burn as well as Cav jerseys. We're too busy making porn while on our knees to grovel to LeBron in the same position.

So what does this do for Lebron's legacy if the Cavs are able to pull this off? Defeating the 3rd best team of all-time based on ELO? I'm sure people would still find something to hate.

Oakland's basketball team is already polishing their rings though, so not much to worry about.

I asked a similar question like a week ago. I think it makes him Top 5 all-time if he retires the same day. GSW being insanely good doesn't matter to his specific legacy. It just shows he could beat a team that on paper was better than his team.

His losses in the Finals hurt his legacy and his team swapping does too. The media and NBA will re-write the history of his whining and flopping, but no one can deny how great of a player he's been.

If Lebron manages to win a championship with these Cavs, in their first year together, with David Blatt as their coach, he will be the second best ever, right behind Jordan.

Lebron's legacy is safe, he's the anointed golden boy of this generation, no matter what.

Only thing that can ruin him is if those HGH allegations ever come to light.
 
I want the cavaliers to win the finals just because its been 51 years since any team in Cleveland has won a championship so I feel bad for the fans, but I'm pretty sure the golden state warriors will dominate. They're just on another level than any other team in the NBA and really the only 'elite' team this season in my opinion.
 
unless LeBron gets Wade 06 mavs style treatment i'll put him as #2 of all time if he beats the warriors

he will need the warriors to choke to a entire new level though, Delly is ready too
