Thompson is my boy.

 

[spyder_ur]

Horford iso'd on LeBron is giving me nightmares of Brandon Bass down the stretch of that game 7.

honestly, the only team in the east that matches up worse than boston against this team is toronto (and a fair bit of that is probably coaching)

This doesn't really make sense. The other teams are much worse.

 

[Slizeezyc]

Max player Horford not as strong as super max player LeBron.

 

[eBay Huckster]

This doesn't really make sense. The other teams are much worse.

the other teams have less talent overall, sure, but Thompson/Love don't have that huge of a matchup advantage against anyone else

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

I just want a competitive series man. I know LeHogan is going to his 30th Finals but at least make me question if he is.

 

[friskykillface]

Same as the Hawks series
Horford will guard LeBron and he will get destroyed lol
Welp

Warriors will save us

 

[Iadien]

Horford on LeBron, really...

 

[mjp2417]

Name one better matchup?

Washington

 

[Line_HTX]

They don't have any good switches. Blowout is gonna come fast and without them noticing.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Horford on LeBron, really...

Maybe Tristan Thompson truly has put the fear of God into Horford already

 

[Gorillaz]

LeEmperor ending this game early makes it even easier for me to now hop on Overwatch

LeKing of the East is so kind to let us have the rest of the night to ourselves

Yes it does

Celtics are a good awful team when it comes to the cavs

 

[friskykillface]

Why are you giving LeBron open lane lol

 

[FTF]

Come on celtics, make it interesting.

 

[BlackGhost]

No one can find Nintendo Switches.

 

[darkwing-buck]

No one can find Nintendo Switches.

I want the neon one :/

 

[Sanjuro]

Not really. We have rebounding/capable big men in Ibaka/JV. We'd do better if we had Brad Stevens instead of brickhead Casey.

Wish Washington won, they'd be a serious matchup against Cleveland.

Washington

 

[LionPride]

LeBron don't care

 

[friskykillface]

Idiots
Go under the screen and let LeBron shoot from 3

 

[Frostinferno]

Celtics Spurs Finals is going to be off the chains.

How is Hilary doing as President over there?

 

[eBay Huckster]

cavs just put 30 on them in that quarter without hitting a single three. lord

 

[Darkness Unleashed]

Zero fucks given by Bron Bron

 

[spyder_ur]

Yes it does

I agree they're a bad matchup, but that's true of anyone in the east. You wanna see that Wizards defense here? We saw the Raptors.


The big man switches are just way, way too easy. I still think the Celts are getting good looks offensively. Generating some turnovers would be nice.

 

[metalslimer]

Cavs also look like they barely give a shit on defense

 

[friskykillface]

LeBron will try to switch on Curry all game in the finals

Just go under the screen and let him beat you from 3

 

[BlackGhost]

I want the neon one :/

We all want the neon one fam ..

 

[GitarooMan]

LeBron not even hiding the total disrespect in the first quarter of the first game, lol

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

Oh this is just sad. Maybe Boston can forfeit and spare the city the embarrassment of a sweep.

 

[WesternHeretic]

Zero fucks given by Bron Bron

One of these years he gonna realize he's getting older and can't do this shit anymore... but until then.... good god.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

LeBron toying with them.

 

[Tom Penny]

Miss wide open shots get KO switches on LeBron. Lol no bueno

 

[megalowho]

I don't think the Celtics are playing that bad, they just have to hit their shots to compete and they didn't shoot well. LeBron getting whatever he wants downhill is a huge problem, but that's just what it is for any opponent.

 

[friskykillface]

Maybe playing all these shitty teams will make the Cavs play shitty in the finals

MVP Jaylen putting the team on his back 😎

 

[random25]

LeBron unstoppable inside. Expected to happen.

Nah

This is like the difference between letting the alley oops and 3s flies for the rockets and taking another strategy. The 2nd night still have them best you, but don't give them the easiest way to beat you

No. Listen to the hot takes above. The Bullets were the best team in the NBA this year!

 

[phanphare]

the sickest joke of all would be if we all waited until the finals for some competitive basketball and then the warriors get the sweep

 

[LockOfTheWeek]

Nah fuck that, these cunts just got the 1st pick. They need to be smited and smited hard.

 

[eBay Huckster]

the funniest joke of all, on the other hand, would be the cavs getting the sweep

 

[mjp2417]

Eh, Washington is the only team in the East that could potentially push them in a series (not win a series, obviously). Cleveland has no way to guard Wall, they have dicey transition defense, and Washington wouldn't get abused this badly on the glass.

 

[Iadien]

Here's Boston's chance.

 

[Hyperactivity]

No. Listen to the hot takes above. The Bullets were the best team in the NBA this year!

The home team won every game, and if the wizards had hca, they probably get to ECF and do a better job

Yeah. Washington. The team with zero bench and one star player.

Yeah. Washington. The team with zero bench and one star player.

You guys aren't even trying.

 

[Line_HTX]

Cavs sweep, Warriors sweep, and Warriors sweep.

Best 3rd movie ever!

 

[Chase17]

That Horford miss

 

[friskykillface]

RIP PLAYOFF HORFORD

 

[LionPride]

I like the theory that players tgat don't give a fuck about rings keep an immaculate hairline, see Deron Williams and Joe Johnson

 

[FTF]

lol sigh, missing layups now.

Just start Cavs Warriors on Friday please.

 

[Brinbe]

I don't know how it's a hot take to suggest that the Wiz are a better matchup? They are a better matchup. They played them tough all season.
