>tfw the Raptors are going to get swept by the Heat
>tfw Drizzy isn't going to come to your town for sideline antics during the game and light up your clubs at night
>tfw instead you will get to watch Chris Bosh literally die on court
I guess it's an even trade.

I hate being a Hawks fan
Why the fuck are they playing like potatos
Missed layups, jacked up three's, turnovers. how many fucking times are we going to leave them wide god damn open from three Jesus fuck
If the cavs sweep us and go on to win the chip I am officially switching my allegiance to King James. I'm sick of supporting these fucking bums.

What happened to Shump
Why is he shit after leaving the Knicks
>>67354753
He was always shit
I unironically really like the dropping dimes commercial
>>67354771
Nah, he showed flashes of defensive eliteness last year, but then got injured in the finals and never recovered.
>>67354623
They'll never live down that "Spurs 2.0" and "beautiful basketball of the East" and "The whole Hawks team is the player of the month" and "The entire starting lineup of the Hawks make the ASG" bullshit. "Team basketball" only works when you have superstar(s) or great players playing at superstar level. They crumble when they play a real star.
>>67353060
CAVS
>>67354812
This. Al Hordford ain't no Tim Duncan and Paul Millsap ain't no LMA
Come on this can't be real
>>67354793
>>67354753
>>67354771
Shump is fine, his fame and name/image recognition outpaces his actual talent. He plays decent defense and makes jumpers once in a while. He never did more than that.
What the fuck happened to the sound
>LeBron actually making 3's
Atlanta is fucked
>>67354839
he's not making any jumpers this year
Our only hope is to let delly take every shot
How good of a coach is pooinlue compared to the jew?
Imagine if Mozgod and Shumpert had last years form.
Fuck.
Here's a fun game Hawks fans: take a shot every time someone from the Cavs takes a shot without a defender in a 10 foot radius
good luck making it to the second half
Why are the cavs so much more enjoyable to watch than the other elite passing and three point shooting teams in the nba (spurs and warriors make me want to gauge my eyes out)?
>>67354839
He used to play really good D last season and was actually useful offensively
>>67354870
>Our
>>67354782
based?
>>67354869
He's not taking many either. He's not a primary scorer.
>>67354911
I'm a Cavs fan and I have to feel the exact opposite. Maybe it's because I'm connected, but I just get stressed more watching the Cavs, the Spurs and Warriors are far more easier to watch in my opinion.
>>67354889
Good IMO, he gets criticized and scrutinized for everything but the Cavs are playing way better than just few months ago. Whether that's just because they like Lue personally more than Blatt or whatever, it shows.
>>67354911
No bullshit cheating screens
>>67354911
lebron
>>67354911
because the cavs are constant fuck-ups and when they get going it's the best thing ever
>>67354956
>I'm connected
???
>>67354929
he's sub 30%
he's also shown no improvement off the dribble
>>67354983
Guess that's a poor way of wording that I'm more invested in them since I'm a fan so I can't relax watching them play.
>>67354911
Because of LeBron is a freak athlete that's fun to watch even if he was playing on the 76ers. Because JR Smith makes ridiculous shots, Kyrie is a wizard with his handles, Love has a huge ceiling and his performance is a little unpredictable, old ass Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye look like all stars when playing with LeBron, Delly is Delly, Tristan Thompson tries his best to do Rodman impressions etc
Who here /bandwagoning the cavs in the playoffs/
LMAO even delly is hot
cavs are fucking murdering the hawks holy SHIT. nba record for 3s this game, calling it now
>>67354987
his midrange was good for a couple of games recently. Cavs have so many weapons it really doesn't matter; he's going to be invaluabe in guarding livingstone, curry, thompson, iggy, etc
>>67355014
here
hope I don't have to next year
This passing is fucking beautiful
>Cavs trying to be Warriors lite
J 3 F F 3 R S O N
>>67354911
Because the Cavs are a mish mash of misfits that LeBron somehow makes work, in other words they're
>fun
to watch
>>67355020
Delly shot 40% for 3 this season
>>67355041
More like Warriors heavy
>>67355041
They've been shooting more threes and at a higher percentage than GSW
Literally a moving screen
L3BRON
L 3 G O D
WELCOME TO THE NEW AGE
>>67355041
But the cavs are actually likeable. Gsw are bunch of arrogant faggots
>>67355030
he's also underperformed defensively. He just needs to play better full stop.
>MOVING SCREEN!!!
LMAOO
who was that
>>67355014
Ha, no. I've been a Cavs fan for most of my life. Not my fault all of you follow false gods
>>67354987
I'm not saying he's playing well. I just mean that Shump playing kind of shitty is low on the list of worries. Based just on the eye test, his defense is fine off the bench and he's not chucking
>>67355105
>arrogant
How dare they
god the cAWKS are the ultimate >regular season team
>>67354682
Also:
>Shumpert
>J.R. Smith
>Mozgov
>Frye
>Hardaway
Thinking about all the players who left who are currently in the playoffs is like a punch to the gut.
LeBron can't even blow by Muscala for fucks sake
>cavs set record for most three's in a half
I'm fucking dead inside. there's still a whole other half of this shit.
>>67355072
>>67355073
Don't ever talk to me again, Cleveland scum. Also kiss the ring, soon to be rings after we buttfuck you again in the finals.
>>67355137
>sell the farm to bottom out and tank
>resign Melo, get a bunch of vets like Afflalo and RoLo to sabotage the tank
Phil is clueless
> hawks playing good defensive and technically sound basketball
> losing only because the other teams meme chucks are luckily going in
I don't think this semen slurping sport is for me
>>67355041
scoring more 3's with less illegal screens and somehow none of their shots feel like chucks. They're on another level to the warriors (and the warriors won't even make the finals)
>>67355177
Why u mad bruh
>>67355130
What does that even mean? They only won 48 games in the regular season.
>>67355177
Heavy as in they're a bully ball version you autist
who /rooting against Lebron/ here
>>67355177
Hey, /sp/, post yfw curry gets an actual career ending injury against the Cavs
>>67355183

>Reggie Miller is praising the Cavs focus and locked in mentality

Just fuck my life.
Will steph be back for the finals?
>>67355183
Cavs, duh
>>67355214
>hating LeBron
Sup redddit
>>67355232
they arent meme 3s if they are set fucking shots, a meme 3 is a shot like 4 feet behind the arc
what city is shittier cleveland or atlanta?
>>67355180
Technically sound basketball is cute and all but it falls apart when you play GODLIKE players like LeBron. Technically sound basketball doesn't work in that scenario unless you have some godlike players of your own
20 point lead should end the game. Thats how we play 2k
>>67355130
They choked hella games in the regular season. They're jsut not clutch at all
Hawks should just forfeit at the half
>>67355245
if odds, then yes
>>67355269
Detroit
Baltimore
St. Louis
>>67355269
Atlanta, but that doesn't make Cleveland a paradise or even close to nice.
>>67355272
then how come it works with the spurs
>>67355297
Flopping and collective refball
>>67355297
Because (in various degrees depending on the year) Duncan/Parker/Ginobli/Leonard/Aldridge.

Do the Atlanta Hawks suck or are the Cleveland Cavaliers just way better than them?
>>67355377
So LeBron is just a super version of Hedo Turkoglu

I thought Americans liked winners

Does he ever play well when the cavs aren't dominating?

Woah slow down there pal. He has talent but he can't win championships.
>>67355457
not sure if you're familiar with lebron's shenanigans, but he's annoying as fuck. plus, he really hasn't won all that much so there's not much to like
>>67355476
They really don't; normies lap up the shit that they spew on first take

This is the JR Smith game huh
>People not understanding the difference between lucky meme chucking illegal screen 3s vs. Tactical, pass around, incredible sniping 3s
The Warriors are the first one, the Cavs are the second.
i have nothing but praise for the Cavs management desu
I was first mad af when they fired Blatt
but all their trades and decisions are on point
>>67355557
Supp, 330 here
>>67355545
clippers or okc, griffin and westbrook look like frat bros
>>67355399
Hawks are the top of the 2nd tier teams. Good, even great but not elite. They had the #1/#2 D in the league coming into the playoffs. All of their players are seasoned, disciplined, and sold on the principles of The System
THAT SAID
It's a bad matchup, Lebron James is impossible on the best of days but the Hawks don't have any weapon/weapons of truly covering him outside of Sefolosha
The Hawks also suck at rebounding
The Cavs are liquid fire right now, if they play like this they are winning the Championship. The Hawks aren't scrubs, but the Cavs are making them look like it, for sure.
WE THE REAL MEME CHUCKERS NOW
Btfo. NEXT GAME PLS
17 first half threes is fucking insane
Anyone have a screenshot of that disappointed black guy?
Pls Cleveland, they are dead already.
>>67355557
I'm in Madison/Painesville (live in Painesville but I'm in Madison every day). I know I probably should hate it but I love it here
HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS INSANE!
They have made the same exact fucking wide open three from the same fucking corner like 7 times why is our defense so utter shit
>>67355561
THE
both warriors or spurs will still sweep them in 5
BURNING OF ATLANTA
ITS SHERMANS MARCH ALL OVER AGAIN.
What a fucking shit game. Every single starter for Atlanta should get sent to the D league for such a shit performance. Embarrassing
>>67355597
dude calm down its not even conf finals and the east is trash.
they will get curb stomped by warriors or spurs
>>67355577
i was glad they fired him. I said it again and again that he doesn't know how to utilize the Cavs' ENTIRE roster, most notably with Kevin Love.
Fucking kek cawks
18 first half threes is fucking insane
i dont get it, why did it take THIS long for Korver to get shut down, and exposed like this?
>>67355604
>CHUCKERS
Underaged plz
>Check score
>How the fuck did this happe..
>Notification pops up
>Set record for 3s in a half
>not guarding the perimeter
Is Atlanta, dare I say it, shit?
HHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
FUCK YOU ATLANTA
FUCK YOU GOLDEN STATE
HAHAHAHAHAHAAH
WE THE REAL KANGS NOW BITCH!
is this more about the cavs or the hawks?
>>67355476
I would say foreigners love Lebron, and any other marketable player. Same thing with Jordan and Kobe. Whoever is the most said, is the most rooted for, since they don't really get into the sport or the league to think for themselves in who they truly like. Same exact reason with how Messi and Ronaldo are the most popular footy players overseas.
>>67355633
FUCK
>mfw there is an actual company called Jay R. Smith Manufacturing and they make plumbing and drainage pruducts
>>67355443
The city really isn't that bad. Very mild traffic for a larger city, a lot cheaper than other large cities, and the city is getting better. There isn't nearly as much to do compared to a place like NY or LA, but it's fine for most people.
>>67355616
>>67355653
Heres a (You) since you are trying so hard

12 of the Cavs 18 three's have been contested. They are just on fire tonight.
>>67355702
>(you)
2peat and sweep in 5 again
>>67355678
OUT
>>67354186
1 and vol 2 are classic. 2 is the better game, and the undeniable classic.
>>67355729
I doubt that a lot
>>67355643
Again, Hawks aren't amazing but had the best D in the league, can't discount the Cavs completely if they're hitting all their contested shots
>city of Atlanta
>>67355656
because most nba coaching is bad and most players are undisciplined. If you stick with Korver through screens or force him to dribble you shut him down.
>get extremely hot vs a literal shit team
>Hurrrr gonna beat Curry!
Smfh you guys are deluded.
GSW sweep in 5.
>JR is the key to all of this because he's a more based character than we've had
>>67355621
this one?
>>67355557
fuck that looks comfy.
>>67355737
Commentators just said so. There's been some horrible wide open ones but they are crushing it.
>>67355731
Keep thinking that until your meme is out for months this time because you rushed him
>Atlanta Hawks
more like Atlanta Sparrows, Atlanta Pigeons, Atlanta Chicks, or something like that
Only silver lining is now the Hawks won't give Horford a max contract.
