2018 NBA Playoffs

The misses from the stripe will cost them this game more than anything else.

LeBron has to play defense this series if they are going to win. The Celts have too many capable scorers and if he tries on that end he can shut one of them down. It will hurt his energy on the offensive end but he is going to have to do it. You can't put him on Brown if he is just going to let him run past him

 

[DarthFed]

Celtics are going to run away with this game now. This looks like series over

 

[DarthFed]

LeBron just not taking it inside, I don't get it.

 

[DarthFed]

Tristin Kardashian needed more minutes, they have no rebounding or rim protection outside of him. Seems like a bad move by "coach" Lue and coach LeBron

 

[kskate2]

The Kang is still good for at least one wipe every game.

 

[DarthFed]

It starts with LeBron though, the Celts have no one to contest him inside but he settled for so many awful shots and didn't even try on defense. This looks like a sweep

 

[kskate2]

I think Cavs muster some energy at home and get at least one game.

 

[DarthFed]

Nah, this is done. Lue isn't bright enough. Thompson is his only real hope and for whatever reason they didn't play him enough. They got nothing else on defense.

 

[kskate2]

No Steven A didn't just call Bos a bunch of rough riders plus Horford.

 

[kskate2]

Yo Darth. They are singing your tune on Sportscenter. They're talking about making bad bets in gambling.

Thats a huge oxymoron that Stephen A is spurring.. But Tatum laid a good lick on Lebron’s kisser.. that slow da Kang down

Yesterday is a good example of why you can't just always look at stats. Bron quietly had a bad game when you factor in 8 TO's, 3/8 at the line and awful defense. That's what separates the beast from 4-5 years ago when he could play elite defense and still have plenty of energy to carry the burden offensively. He played matador defense yesterday and still looked gassed by the end. Still the best player in the league but he has that kink in his armor now. I read an article yesterday saying he wants to play more off the ball going forward so he is probably well aware of the decline in endurance with his insane mileage.

Makes sense that he will want to join Philly or Houston. The Bucks suddenly don't look so terrible for barely losing to Boston. I wish like hell they'd have the cap space to have a chance at the Bron sweepstakes.

Darth.. all due respect but Milwaukee doesnt have a big enough market to hoist da Kang.. The best hope for Milwaukee is to try to land that sniper from Phoenix, Devin Booker.. I would wish this for da Bulls but I totally have the highest disdain for that organization.

He will go to a team that has a high chance of winning that isn't named GS or Boston. And if they have another young superstar who could handle most or a lot of the load that'd be a plus. Milwaukee actually would fit pretty decently but Philly and Houston are better and they have more cap space. I don't buy for a second that he is heading to LA.

Given all of the shade that KD still gets for joining a 73 - 9 team, wouldn't it be worse for Lebron joining Houston? Seems to me the 76ers getting dusted so easily has given him the perfect cover to go there.

LeBron going to Houston wouldn't be anywhere near as bad especially if they get smoked by Golden State in this series. KD joined a 73 win team and to make matters worse that team had just rallied from 3-1 down to send him home.

I do agree with you about Philly. That's why I was saying last round that Boston may not be doing itself any favors by beating Philly but I also figured Boston wouldn't be getting by the Cavs. Shows what I know.

Houston trying to guarantee a G5 on their home floor.

Darth.. if your current employer is Accountremps and you contract is ending, but the firm that contracted you is Apple or Google.would you turn down either organization..I doubt it..Well, that’s theoretically what KD did.

Curry has been brutal this series. Just terrible.
