That's such a bad deal for Philly but it's so in line with every trade Colangelo made with the Raps that I think it'll happen

So if you were coach Lue /sp/, what would you prefer to get killed by GSW in the paint or by their back court? Because there is no way the Cavs can defend both at the same time.

even if /nba/ says no, in their hearts its a yes
>>
>>68070183
I really think there is no way the Cavs can win the series against the Warriors. If they go for scoring their D is crap. If they focus on D their scoring drops off a cliff. The Dubs are too well rounded and they know how to make LeBron work for every point. So if it's Lebron vs GSW the Cavs will lose for sure. If it's the Cavs team vs the Warriors team then there is hope but I don't think that will happen. The cavs bench is shit and they can't as a team do offense and defense at the same time.

>A lover of practical jokes, Gilbert once wanted to dummy up a fake news release that the Cavs were signing Dennis Rodman to a 10-day contract and put it out on April Fools’ Day; he was talked out of that one. After a playoff victory over the Washington Wizards 10 years ago, Gilbert had a remote-controlled fart machine installed under coach Mike Brown’s seat. When Brown went up to the dais for the postgame news conference, Gilbert stood in the back and worked the controls. Brown was flummoxed — although the microphones didn’t pick up the sounds.
>>

This picture is so weird. Why does that guy behind Gilbert to the right have such a huge head. It's like 2x bigger than Gilbert's and Gilbert is closer to the camera. And why the fuck is the guy to the right of the big head man so fucking tan? He looks ridiculous.

I know this one of you guys

Ex-NBA star Stephen Jackson says he called out a white guy in his gym -- to his face -- after he heard the man compare Serena Williams to a gorilla.

Jackson says he heard the man talking about the gorilla that got shot in Cincinnati -- when the white guy quipped, "They shot Serena? Serena got shot?"

Jackson says he debated whether or not to let it slide ... but ultimately opted for a confrontation.

"I straight up told old boy, 'I heard you and it's wrong.'"

Jackson says the man tries to apologize -- but Jackson made it clear, "That s*** ain't cool."

Timmy has always been a team guy. and I love him to death, but I think it's time he does the ultimate sacrifice for the team. I know that the Lakers are retarded as fuck and would trade players and a shitton of money for Timmy. Hopefully we can get a deal for Randle so Pop can turn him into the next Duncan. It stings to think about this but the Spurs way has always been team first, and Timmy will always be a Spur, even if he goes to the Lakers.

Lead by example, champ.

He is already on his way to having as many rings as LeBron and at this rate he'll end up with at least five or six. The successor to Jordan is some tiny pretty eyed lightskin nigga from some junior college.

You niggas better invest in Curry's shoes now because in a few years they'll resell for a nice price.

Says the Curry dickrider.

Michael Jordan won 6 ships with 6 finals mvps because he was the best player on the team every time.

Curry just has a stacked team with no parity or decent competition.

He can NEVER be compared to his airness.

No, but the Cavs ever winning a NBA Championship with him definitely are.
>>
>>68073364
They didn't even want to win the game last night, and still won anyway. THAT'S how fucked Leaveland is.
>>
All LeBrick knows how to do: Back up and shove his ass into the defender to get closer to the basket.

That's some shit I'd do if I was playing a 6 year old in basketball.

Man up and get by the defender by either shooting over him or getting past him. That's real 1 on 1. Slowly backing up into him is boring, pussy basketball.
>>
I'm a huge lebron hater but I think he could be an elite defender if he put a lot of effort into it. Some say he goes the harden route and saves his energy on defense because he has to carry his team on offense, but I personally think its because he's too over protective of his image. He doesn't want to look like he tries on defense because he could look foolish like mj did when ai crossed him up. This is why guys like mj and kobe are such a different breed, they want to utterly defeat the opposition, whereas lebron often settles on poking his hand at the ball when his defender beats him and never really tries to recover his position. He also never sticks to his man, he just hovers between passing lanes to either help, double up or steal passes. When you're guarded by lebron he'll give you all the space in the world unless you're a huge threat, which is why iggy got so much wide open 3s.

That's called posting up. A move most forwards rely on. Are you literally 12?

He has to carry his team on offense? Maybe last year in the finals but kyrie is a better scorer than lebron. Most of what hes been doing is catching the ball in the post, waiting for the double team and passing out to a three pointer

it was a horrible decision. Wiggins is a decent wing defender and his length would help against the warriors not to mention a second scoring threat from the guard position. Giving a long term deal to tristan was a shit plan too. gm bron isn't very good at gm'img

man it makes so much sense though, narratively. (i happen to have a degree in this shit.) kobe as the rightful heir to jordan's legacy falling short one championship would make for a great turned-villain-then-turned-good-guy-at-the-end-again character. catharsis and shit, foils everywhere, marketable self-deprecation by ways of acknowledging your own shortcomings, just like space jam proper. giving the people the kobe/lebron finals matchup they purportedly always wanted but never got.
>>
>>68073600
He's still the primary decision maker, is expected to play 40+, and expected to close out the game strong or get roasted by the media.
But yeah I don't think its the harden approach anyways, its definitely an image thing. It ties in with so many other unexplainable shit in his career. For example, everyone is shocked when he's not being aggressive crunch time(what if he misses clutch free throws?) or why he didnt post up lowry in the last round(what if he misses and people say he can't post up Lowry like I couldn't post up barea?), stupid shit like this gets in his head and results in him doing dumb shit to protect his image. He's super fake. He's LeBeta.

Is it just me or does it seems that LeBron is the only diva on the Cavs and gets butt blasted whenever his team hits a rough spot. Someone on that team needs to stand up to him and tell him shut the fuck up at times. It really messes with a team's dynamic if the superstar keeps being a little pussy when shit don't go your way.
