>Batum returning worries me
As as Blazer he usually came back from injury really passive and shy to mix it up. He'll probably hang out on the wing more than usual on offense and be more of a facilitator. On defense he'll give the shooter a bit more room and protect the passing lanes more with those long ass arms.
>>67151824
Im worried desu. It's a must win game if we want to win this series, because I doubt we can win a game 7 (if it happens)

It also worries me, but he's playing off the bench so it's not a big deal desu

- Once Jeremy Lin starts scoring like crazy, bench him immediately after he chucks a shot or turns the ball over
- Get Kemba Walker open
- include Al Jefferson in more plays

>>67155032
HE'S COMING HOME
>>67153335
For some reason LeBron just shits the bed against the Spurs, but maybe he'll finally get over that hump this year. As for the Warriors, the Cavs are the favorites if they play them in my eyes. LeBron almost beat a fully healthy Warriors squad by himself last year, and that was when he was playing the worst season of his career. Considering the fact that he's playing well again, his whole team is healthy, and Curry is coming off of an injury, the Cavs can sweep the Warriors in 5 if they meet in the Finals.
>>67155108
Holy fuck please no, those 4 teams are so young and fun and have bright futures. Whichever team gets Howard is committing instant potential suicide.
>>67152632
Shaw would have been a terrifying cop
>>67155174
>shit's the bed
you mean his team, right? he leads them in every category every finals appearance minus MAYBE rebounding by like 1 or 2
>>67155235
In 2014 his team definitely shit the bed too, bud he played worse than he usually does. In 2013 he played well overall but once again he messed up things that he usually doesn't mess up. 2007 he played average but there's no fault for him there, his team was dogshit and he wasn't in his prime yet. Maybe "shit the bed" is too strong of a term, but LeBron always plays worse than usual against the Spurdoras.
look at this shit and compare it to how LeBron is playing now

best Drake songs = corny R&B love songs where he accepts that he's a corny half jew beta boy, like Just Hold We're Going Home

> “It starts with Harden and Howard, the team’s two stars. They have tried to be friends — Harden picked up Howard’s tab for dinner in New York on his birthday. During dinner in Phoenix at the All-Star break, the two discussed their on-court issues.
>But ultimately, the chemistry between the two hasn’t been there. One team source said: “It’s cordially bad.”
>Howard feels he’s a star and should be respected in the locker room. Howard, known to be playful with media members, was distant over the last two months of the regular season. He was largely frozen out of the offense despite coaches and players saying he needs the ball.
>In Game 4 against the Warriors, Howard took only five shots in the first half, and in the third quarter turned invisible. He scored his first fourth-quarter points during the series with 8:11 left. Asked why he didn’t get more touches, Howard said: “You have to ask the appropriate people.”
>…
>While Howard is irked by not getting the ball as often as he would like, it is Harden who is dismayed by the center. He wishes Howard would demand the ball and not goof around so much. Howard’s personality — bubbly, friendly, warm — often can rub guarded people such as Harden the wrong way. Howard jokes with fans during games and easily becomes frustrated with referees.”

are you kidding right?
the heat are nowhere close to the same place as the celtics. the celtics have a chance to at least get the third pick. the heat is built on over the hill players who are nothing but ball hogs who weaknesses are extremely one sided. there younger players are way too unconsistent and the only one who is going to be a star is not going to get the max. the max player on the heat is about ready to retire and the second best player is over the hill and shoots the heat out of the game way more than he wins games.

to be fair this year is a pretty huge asterisk. with 2 injuries they went from being favorites to make the WCF over the Blazers and Warriors to being a guaranteed 1st round exit. its the equivalent of OKC losing Westbrook and KD in the same game then losing to the Mavericks
>>67160868
You have nary room to talk about uncalled fouls and games being handed to people by the refs... Gay Area faggot
>>67161383

>tfw /nba/ fears the ODB

>>67161463
Suns and Kings were supposed to be decent
Hahahhahaha to the other 3 though
>>67161383
Because 3 of those starters were pretty high profile starters while the other one was decent while playing there. Also worth mentioning they lost Arron Afflalo among a few decent role players so the team they lost (especially compared to what they got in return Mo Harkless? Aminu?)
LMA got the max last summer and has been considered among the elites in his position the past couple years.
Wes Matthews is getting a 17.5 million a year and was one of the best 3&D SGs in the league, he definitely regressed this year though (injury).
Batum also had an injury last year but when he was healthy he was a fucking beast of a SF. He is one of the hotter FAs this summer because of his insane passing ability for a SF, and will more than likely get the same kind of money Wes is getting.
Losing that many players of that caliber was a pretty big deal and people thought Portland were going to be in the Ben Simmons owl (now the Ingram owl).
>>67161463

literally no one thought the Lakers or Nets were going to be win even 20 games. the Suns were on their way to the playoffs until Bledsoe went down for the season. the Kings were hit or miss, a lot of talent that could implode any second and they did end up imploding. the Knicks met expectations, better than last year's train wreck but still not good

Needs a good coach and/or pg that will ride his ass. Houston fired McHale so it's not happening there. He and CP3 might head out east to a team with a senior, alpha coach.
I don't even want Curry to come back! just sit him out! /nba/ would literally shut down if the Warriors won without Curry. the asspain would be epic
>>67161594
Unironically the Cavs. LeBald will asterisk his way to getting one for Da Land when the Cavs beat an injured Warriors team in the Finals. Then Howard will take a pay cut and sign with the Cavs since he gets along with LeBeta. They'll meme their way to another ring together and Howard will retire with 1 (one) ring that he got carried to.

GS moves the ball better without Steph in the 1/2 court sets, mostly because goes one on one and creates his own shot. GSW will win the NBA Championship with or without Curry

because he punked out like a bitch with the Lakers in the last playoff game, fouled himself out

Shaq wade heat is best heat
Apart from the Leltics fucking up this is happening.
Daily reminder this semen slurping sport needs some fixin and this is how we do it(this is how we do it):
>30 teams
>get rid of conferences and divisions--no one cares
>each team plays every team 2 times in a season
>3 points for a win
>1 for a draw
>0 for a loss
>no overtime for regular season games
>6 team playoff
>5 game first round
>7 game champions hip series
>top 2 teams in the league table ranking get a first round bye
>playoff seeding determined by points(league table ranking) at end of 58 game regular season
>in case of a tie(league table ranking) , POINT DIFFERENTIAL[(total points scored during regular season) - (total points allowed during regular season)] for the entire season breaks the tie
Point differential would make every possession--every play--throughout the entire season count.
With a 6 team playoff you can expect to have 12-13 teams realistically vying for a playoff spot so around half the league will always be incentivized to play hard and win.
Since relegation isn't possible and there are no other competitions(Champions League for example) to qualify for, the other half of the league could be incentivized to win with a combination of determining a teams percentage of revenue shares + determining draft picks
you're welcome, I just saved your dying sport

Cavs need to get more athletic from the bench and a rim protecting big, It's pretty worrying that richard fucking jefferson actually gets quality minutes. Dwight would be a pretty good fit if he actually came to play, but ideally Mosgov would turn good again
>>67162161
he doesnt really deserve any. he was the only player that showed up
So my wife's son just told me he hates me. What should I do?
I've been thinking about taking him to the local courts and showing him some of my post moves. Maybe it'll restrengthen our bond
Who else rooting for Lebron and the Cavs here if Warriors make it to the Finals again? This is Lebron's babyface turn guys, he's the underdog.
>>67162131
Hornets still have plenty of opportunities to blow this
>>67162161
he dropped 35 pts....
i like to defekate on harden just as much as the other guy but hes still a borderline top 5 player of the all time current nbasad

>>67162183

i am talking about the entire series. who cares if he can score if that's all he can do.
he's not a good leader. he's not a good player because he doesn't help his team get better.

tbqh he deserves a ring but the rest of his team doesn't

Right here senpai. Been a lebron fan forever. I want him to win one and retire and buy the cavs
>>67162205
he also hit a game winng shot that which wobn the only game in the series....
just becasuse he is the best [player on the team doest mean he has to maker others better, u think kobe made anyone better/?
I will probably get lot of hate for saying this, but I thought the Warriors play better defensively without Curry. So, by missing out Curry on the offense, W made up for it with the defense. not bad
>>67162205
>averages 8 assists a game
he does everything that a man can possibly do to help his team. did you watch the series? here's how every single possession went
>Harden breaks down the defender, drives to lane and runs into a double team

>Shooter chucks up a brick
>Harden tries to set up another teammate next possession, shooter bricks another wide open shot

he gets his teammates open as well as anyone in the league, its not his fault none of his teammates can hit an open shot

when curry and ellis shared a back court they were the statiscially worst back court defensivly in the nba, and imo ellis ins't that bad on d the lions share of that was on curry, and he hasn't gotten any better
>>67162228

I've been saying this. If Klay's shot is falling, they really don't lose much at all. Livingston is a much better defender, and knows when to take advantage of mismatches on offense.
>>67162329
at least sasha got the last laugh he married morry sharapovich and kobe is married some mexican dime a deninzen who didn't even finish high school...
Look at the way he's typing out his fucking sentences with intentional spelling mistakes. As if he's fucking drunk.
Stop responding to him

they were a blackhole between the early 80s and the late 90s; even got relegated to Division One and then, Two.
I had a lot of respect for their fans back then, not easy to support such a team at a time when ManU was at its best.
(in this sense, being the smaller brother of a super successful franchise for decades, then suddenly get a shitload of bandwagoners, the comparison is valid)
The Cavs handled the Spurs the last time they played when Duncan was out. Duncan will play in the playoffs but the Cavs are a lot better now than they were in January. I think they match up well and it would make for a good Finals
