Enjoy watching this LeBron while you can and while it lasts. He's playing at a level nobody ever has.

KC_Connection 05-19-2017 07:22 PM

How many MVPs should LeBron have won in his career so far? 8? 9?

Not even a top 3 finalist this year. LMAO

Holy crap, just looked at my phone and saw the score was 63-24. How is that even possible?

Red Dawg 05-19-2017 07:27 PM

I hate ol Boston crap. This is glorious to watch them get embarrassed 2 times as the 1 seed.

They will go down as the worst top seed in NBA history.

And yet another of your misguided statements you might want to consider revising. Celtics down 40 in the 1st half tonight. At least Toronto kept the games within 10 at home. LMAO

You have been able to accurately predict the teams who will be in the finals for decades...

I remember Gatorade had a cap contest in the mid 90's (predicting the finals matchup and how many games it would take to win) and everyone including me at time wanted a Bulls in 6 over Sonics or Bulls in 7 over Sonics cap...guess what happened?

The Lakers and Celtics dominated the 80's, and the 60's etc.

The NBA has never had a ton of parity. The talent level in the league now is better than it has ever been, but in some ways it doesn't feel like it... because something about right now just feels different. It should be more competitive than this. I'd say the 80's Lakers are the closest to what we're seeing now. They did pretty much dominate across the board. Their only competition was the Rockets, who at least took them out a couple times.

But most of these other modern teams at least had some legitimate challenges. The Knicks were a legit challenge for the Bulls early in their run. The Pacers had a legitimate shot at beating in the Bulls in 98 during their final run. Go watch that series, it took everything the Bulls had to knock them out. Those were championship level opponents.

The 80's Celtics had some all-out wars with the Sixers and Pistons. The early 00 Lakers were legitimately challenged by the Blazers and Kings. Somebody has to step up or LeBron is going to go to about 10 straight Finals.

You were right. The east is ****ing terrible. Put asterisks next to LeBron's playoff stats.

Imagine if LeBron wanted to put up an individual performance to rival Westbrook. It would be insane.

Jordan never beat a team as good as the Warriors.

Boston ownership should give a refund.

dirk digler 05-19-2017 07:55 PM

Why would you put the Cavs starters back in and risk injury?

These two aren't mutually exclusive.

Except LeBron just beat the 73-9 Warriors last year in probably the greatest postseason performance in NBA history. He'd be dominating against any level of competition.

Get out of here with that garbage. Jordan almost single handedly beat the Monstars. The Warriors wouldn't stand a chance.
