I know, right? Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4.... what a joke.Socnorb11 wrote:Yeah, at this point it's going to be REAL tough for Lebron to rack up the 7 championships that he promised to bring to Miami.
Yeah, they've got 2 with Lebron, but that's only one more than Wade won in Miami without LJ.

Re: 2013-2014 NBA Season
Haha.............. they interviewed Pop before starting the 4th quarter:
Question: What does your team have to do to finish this off?
Pop: Good defense
Question: What does it say about your team that they're winning so convincingly without Tony Parker contributing?
Pop: Everyone else is playing well.
End of interview.

You guys can frame it how you want, but there is a lot of garbage on this heat roster. I'm impressed LeBron carried them this far. This Spurs team is just special.

As one of the commentators mentioned earlier........... the Heat have turned into the Cleveland Cavaliers, fittingly enough.trill wrote:You guys can frame it how you want, but there is a lot of garbage on this heat roster. I'm impressed LeBron carried them this far.
Lebron should have known what he was signing up for. Miami had an unproven coach and an aging superstar when Lebron went there. Lebron climbing on board left them without much space to build around "the big three".
Everything that Lebron does is impressive, on an individual level, but I'd much rather watch the Spurs than Lebron.

Nobody's fault but his own there. However, I feel comfortable saying it's unlikely that Cleveland ever could have got him enough help to get the two he got. If 'not 5, not 6' was a real expectation or measure of success for him then he was pretty misguided, about Wade's age or the willingness of championship chasers to join or whatever. But 2/4 isn't bad, to say the least. I'd give an organ to see the Blazers win one.
Curious and pre-defeated as an NBA fan to see how he stacks his next deck and disgusts us all again. The Carmello talk certainly doesn't help me reassess my perception of this Yankees/Cowboys fan from Ohio, though his play in Miami has really elevated my opinion of him as a player and competitor.

Re: 2013-2014 NBA Season
He made four straight finals and won two of them. But keep taking shots at him because he doesn't meet your ridiculous notion of what it takes to earn being called a champion.Socnorb11 wrote:As one of the commentators mentioned earlier........... the Heat have turned into the Cleveland Cavaliers, fittingly enough.trill wrote:You guys can frame it how you want, but there is a lot of garbage on this heat roster.

...and in all honesty (though I don't have to worry about it), if all sorts of crazy maneuvering happened and LeBron and Friends descended upon Portland and won, my satisfaction would be very limited. That's really not the game I've developed such a starving (bitter, even) hunger to see won.
Thrilled for the Spurs.

Bask while you can, because Darth Riley is going to somehow get Melo AND Love.
