This is where some of you start gassing it. There are like 2 billion men out there doing this on a regular. It's not an achievement. Leave it at basketball. He's a GOAT on the basketball court. Just leave it at that.

Not everyone has the spotlight or influence he has and most cant handle it. Jordan drank and gambled, Kobe cheated on his wife and may have possibly ra.ped someone, not a knock on their ability on the court but it's a rarity for someone so famous to be this disciplined, especially given the conditions he grew up with. And he's been like this since he was a teenager when he had the spotlight on him, let that sink in.

No way Cavs wil win Rockets, I can’t imagine it. Houston have better offense and defense. Houston is better in every aspect. Rockets with outscore them, have more Rebounds.

Stop over thinking it bro. Everything in the sport this year points to LeBron winning a championship.
This has always been the script. No way they make him lose another final.
It's not about what Houston or golden state can do.

whether you're a billionaire or a peasant, it's not an achievement. Still had nothing to do with Kobe and MJ.. It's not a competition and neither should it be a comparison. Doing what men are naturally supposed to do or have been doing for a million years isn't an achievement. It's no knock on those who do well and those who fail at it.

I don’t know what NBA will do, when they start raining 3s in Oakland or Houston, even in Cleveland. You can only rig close game.

But the point is some people have that assignment much harder than others. It's like commending someone for finishing a job when he had a higher workload. Nothing wrong with that. He's a great role model period.

CP3 out. Golden State better not phuck this up like Boston did! Though I trust James Harden the mental midget to fold as usual

Brahhh even with a healthy CP3 I don't trust no James Harden who can go 0 for 30 from 3 in the Finals or something like that. James Harden and his 5/25 shooting assss would definitely doom the Rockets to defeat so naah let them try next year.

Warriors got to have this one

Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 1:42am On May 29, 2018
I not sure the NHL would prefer the Knights winning the Stanley Cup as it may portray the league as weak.

This Boston team has not made excuses all season. Game 6 will not be a good place to start! They can win Game 6 and if you ask me they must pull all the stops to win Game 6.

They might have homecourt in Game 7 but this only guarantees them a wider berth not a win per se especially against the Cavs as an even better Golden State painfully discovered

The pressure on them going to this game is nil and they have to use this to their advantage.
.

Surprised and not surprised that the Cavs wound up winning. Could vividly recall stating here that Boston must do all within their power to win Game 6 on the road. Daunting as that might have been the basketball gods threw them a bone with Kevin Love getting hurt! Should have been the coup de grace yet Boston proceeded to drop their worst quarter of the season. You could even argue that that Game 6 2nd quarter was were the series was lost

They should bounce back from this hopefully but I also hope they realize that it's not a given they would be back here. This is why I was hoping they broke through. Everybody thought OKC would get to multiple Finals after losing in 2012 but look what happened.

My post-mortem would not be complete without giving props to LeNomad. I can loathe him but when you see a player leaving everything on the court for his team. As a fan and lover of the game you would have to have a very wack perspective to not respect that

Fact!! Great role model. Nobody's a saint. People do this everyday. Being a father is a responsibility not a pass or fail exam. Everyone is expected to do this irrespective of their financial or societal status.

Not really. Just the beauty of sports! Plus people keep forgetting that they actually got a lot of good and perhaps criminally underrated bunch of players. A lot of these guys are also playing for long-term deals

I had a nervous breakdown but I'm fully out of it. King James being a beast when facing elimination is even helping.

Shaq fu has already spoken, “If Cleveland wins at home tomorrow, they will definitely win Game 7"
Sorry about this dear. No wonder you've been scarce. Good to know you've broken out of it. At the end of the day we're all going through something.

I trust you have a strong support system and all. We are here too Lebron hate or not smiley

Damn!! These early fouls though. Very stupid of Klay Thompson.. You can't block Harden's shot anyways and he will get the calls

Thomson in foul trouble... nice tactics
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 2:15am On May 29, 2018
Don’t fall in love with the contested 3. Nobody wins game 7s that way. It will drop to the mean. Eat with easy 2s and stay close it is marathon not a sprint.
