When a man posts 40+ 10+ and 10+ and loses. Whether Kevin love had 30 30, it's obvious the supporting cast wasn't enough. He did his part. JR going 0/7 is awful. Not even bothered right now but some dolts are very fond of making senseless illogical arguments.

Well...look at it this way, if Cavs win the series, "He had no help" chants won't make sense because he balled today and they still did not win.

Logical reasoning can be painful to a mind not built for it.

When Bron put huge numbers and won against Pacers...y'all said he did it alone. In other words, he got all the credit.

Today..he had huge numbers and did not win. Which means..Cavs winning or not does not depend on him scoring huge..it depends on the help he gets.

Such that if Cavs win the series..it will be senseless to now claim he did it all alone. Kapische?

Just the same way I was here saying Kyrie got zero respect for his 2016-17 performances despite averaging 27 and 29 ppg in those playoffs finals. Bron got every single credit.

BR will draw only him in a tug of war with the whole celts team.

Now he did all..and they did not win. If they win, why does he get all the credit WHEN IT IS CLEAR THAT He MUST HAVE GOTTEN HELP for his team to win?

Why claim he did it all for his team to win?

Look at the Raptors series. They swept..they gave him all the credit again.

Put the fear of God in them. As the game progresses bring the others into the fray. Tried the reverse in the previous game and it didn't work just like it didn't against Indiana. This is the much better strategy.

I'm sorry didn't the Cavs pick up games in the pacers series after the guys put up similar or worse numbers to this?

Depends on the opposition too, works against some but not against others. Sometimes he can drag a team, other times he can't because the opposition is too strong.

I like your first sentence though, were you looking in the mirror when you typed that? And it's "capiche", egg Nog.

Re: The NBA Begins by etidy: 6:23am On May 16, 2018
Rodney Hood was pretty solid before going to the Cavs. Crowder was good on the team he was on before AND after the Cavs. Derrick Rose and Wade both had big playoff moments this year too. And Nance can barely crack the rotation after being a solid player in LA. Makes you think is lebron ball dominance crippling the ability of this team to run a system?

Remove oladipo from the pacers and lebron from the cavs, the rest of the cavs team would be better than the pacers yet it didn't feel like this in the first round.

Rodney hood and Crowder are system players. Jazz fans were happy to be rid of him and go and ask jazz players about Crowder now knucklehead. Rose and Wade played well for the Cavs before being traded, I won't expect someone who only reads box scores to understand though.

Nance was coming off the bench in a lottery team and you expect him to do what exactly for this Cavs team? Lol! This forum is the Mecca of dumb people.

Granted playing with LeBron isn't for everyone, puts you on the spot and everyone expects you to make every wide open shot because you'll get a lot of them. But Hood and all these other guys played well in Boston immediately after arriving, why? They had wide open looks and they sunk them. Difference now? The spotlight is in their head and the shots aren't falling. Someone will blame LeBron for JR being a streaky shooter and going 0/7 of mostly open looks.

Less thinking ability than even apes the lot of you.

Lebron has no help grin to beat a team without two all stars. A bunch of rookies and sophomores + al horford is crushing a team with the GOAT, another all star, a player you called the best shooter in the league = Kyle korver, JR George hill. Come on ! What do you need ? Micheal Jordan? grin

Lmao. Dum dum, let me explain how the NBA works since you're clueless, a team has to win four games in the playoffs. Each team plays two straight games at home and the team with a better regular season record gets to enjoy the first of those two home games. The celtics have won two of their home games now and retained home court advantage.

If you need more pointers as to how the NBA works please be more humble, don't come here and spew your stupidity all over the place.

I made a post with a sentence that said should and I don't know why this Ape is quoting it again. Fvck off my mentions monkey.

What I need is for your mum to bend over so I can fvck her in the arse. What the Cavs and LeBron need is for JR not to go 0/7. LeBron with an efficient 40 point triple double and a loss? These bums need to step up. And if they don't your mum can step up, either way I'm cool small fry.

Lebron played great and admittedly his supporting cast has big flaws, but they are better than what they are producing. The major problem is with the coaching but lebron also shares a bit of the blame. The team lacks a system that can make the role players more involved in the offense. The whole team is built on lebron creating shots for others. There is so little ball movement and defensive coordination.

If context matters in a narrative then the narrative should not pre-dominate the context.

As for your spelling...lol..for an Italian word? Your problem is...you forget the reality check you will always get paid with on nairaland.

Slang can be spelled anyhow. Keep your ITK to your peer-simpletons you converse with in your regular life.

And nobody said the supporting cast played well. In fact, the contrary. The point is..when they play well..the narrative then becomes "he did it alone".

In other words, he gets all the accolades. LOL.

Too bad LeBron can't go 3/18 like Jordan did in the 1993 ECF game 3 and still win by 20.

Even I came on this thread and expressed how important the supporting cast showing up was. Even LeBron gave his teammates credit for their performance. This dunce continues to make a fool out of himself.

Concept is a subsect of every narrative fool and in this case it was 100% true. He did drag the Cavs through some games against the pacers. Period, if you want to debate that go find someone who doesn't know what you are to debate with.


Lol! I have never seen anyone anywhere spell it that way and even your screenshot showed nothing of the way you spelt it even with all the variations. Hold your L in peace small fry.
Re: The NBA Begins by Donndino: 9:18am On May 16, 2018
The Celtics are as good as the Pacers defensively but are much better than the Pacers offensively. Am loving the Celtics, they're young hungry and talented. Lebron and the Cavs are in big trouble! I can't wait for the Skip and Shannon analysis of game 2.
Re: The NBA Begins by etidy: 9:24am On May 16, 2018
Some said this on twitter:
Look...Brad Stevens is a great coach...but the main thing that is killin the Cavs, is that the offense plays to the strengths of ONE player...JUST ONE. Its a horrible offense..and horrible offense =horrible defense.

Players can't get into rhythm against good defensive teams when only one player is doing the playmaking. Just look at this

I've seen horrible offensive teams that are good defensively and vice versa just like the regular season Celtics were defensively sound with bad offense. I could actually make a case if that sentence was in reverse but what

But let's ignore that dumb statement for a second.

Can you show the box scores for the warriors rockets game yesterday? I want to see how many field goal Al's Durant attempted compared to the other warriors. Then I want to know which team won, since FGA is what you're using to measure offense. Nobody came here to complain the warriors offense is playing to the strength of just one player when Durant took almost 30 shots yesterday. SMH

I told you, if all you do is read boxscores, don't talk about basketball period.
