I wouldn't mind seeing the Cavs this year. At least in the east, Spurs will dominate whichever team they play.

I think cavs / spurs will be way better than anyone expects.. who on the suprs will shut down james? detroit can't do it then doubtful anyone else will.. cavs can contain duncan too

I'd love for the Cavs to beat them, but its just not gonna happen. Hopefully they get past Detroit and we'll have some fun in the bookie forum.

It's the NBA it's impossible to say that.. I am willing to bet 95% of america that watches the NBA said Golden State will NEVER beat Dallas too

I never dreamed in a million years that GS would beat Dallas but it is the NBA and there will be two teams left standing and it won't be a quick series, I can bet that.. 6-7 games

sheed is an idiot. always has been

ya he's the reason I don't like detroit.. he is a dirty, bad attitude player.. see ya next year wallace!
 
Gibson is rockin.. james started off so weak.. 0/2 by 2nd quarter
 
I'd like to take a moment and address any and all detractors and naysayers of Cleveland sports teams. Fuck you.

disagree entirely.
sheed's bad rap comes not from his play, but from how he handles himself with the refs.
sheed's techs are rarely cause of a bad or hard foul.
people don't like him and that's fair, but to call him a dirty or cheap player is wrong and shows you don't follow his game.
it's like lebron has a bubble around him, get too close and the whistle blows every fucking time...i could see and relate to sheed's frustration and at that point it was obvious there was no coming back for detroit

did you like dennis rodman?

he is paid to play a sport not to bitch constantly, I have zero respect for people that continually bitch at refs. 7 technicals in the playoffs this year is a little high I do think
 
PuddleMonkey said:
I hate Rodman with a passion! He was cool when I met him, but I still don't care for him as a player.

i only care for him as an actor!! remember double trouble?

bruce bowen w/ a help defender...and all their help defenders are excellent. you got duncan down low and parker and ginobilli on the perimeter. there's a reason they've been one of the best defensive teams for years

it'll be more entertaining for sure than the same boring pistons but that cavs team is not very good...probably one of the worst eastern conference champions in awhile as a team
 
you people constantly bash on cavs and don't think you ahve a chance but I'd take anyone up on $100 that cavs do not get swept and this series goes to game 6 at the very least

they might not get swept....but it'll end in 5, maybe 6 if they steal one. lebron can go off for a game or two and just take over in the 4th if they hang around, but the spurs are just such a better system and overall level level of talent and have tons of playoff experience.

you really think larry hughes or ilgauskas(which are sadly their best other players) match up with the rest of that team?

You know it's odd, I think the cavs can beat the spurs, not b/c I'm a fan of the cavs, but b/c they have played each other twice this season and guess who won both those games? the cavs!

you can't argue with that

Duncan is not a good on the ball defender. Ilgauskas has range, duncan can stand under the goal and block shots and that's about it, outisde the lane he is a worthless defender and it will be proven. Duncan has zero range, if he's not standing directly under the goal odds are he will miss the shot

ilgauskas can't move though, you're acting like he can break people down on the dribble. he might be the slowest player in the nba.

cavs have no shooters. you collapse on lebron and put it in other people's hands. their supporting cast is not good enough. they won the last series because of gibson, but he's nothing more than a servicable role player with upside

i have the league pass...the spurs were a team i watched a good bit. duncan also can hit from up to 15 feet out, but he works best within 10 feet of the basket. doesnt matter what angle because he uses the glass so much

i don't particurlary like the spurs but they're about a solid overall team as you can get and they expose weaknesses very quickly

pistons 3-1 vs cavs this season
pistons never in 2 yrs lost 4 games in a row
it doesn't matter in the playoffs
spurs in 5 against cavs (spurs in 6 against detroit)
 
Yes if you were to break down the cavs and put them against spurs players one on one the spurs would win but the fact of the matter is the cavs have proven they deserve to be in the finals.. give them credit where it is due

I'm not saying the cavs will win it all, i hope they do b/c I hate SA but there are only 2 teams elft and it's not luck

i am deeply saddened


two years in a rock the boys go out in game 6 of the east conf finals
what makes it sting is that they lose to lesser quality teams
the heat sure were awesome this post season :rolleyes:
and regardless of what all the cavs dick riders claim, cleveland is a average team with a superstar

his name was eddy curry and now he's going to be the best dominant offensive center in the east :)

he's a giant douchebag....he singlehandley sabotaged a franchise. He's a sneaky bastard....
but he knew how to keep that team in check and disciplined. i'll give him that

Did Detroit win? Nope. Hehehehehehehehe
has cleveland won anything in the last 50 yrs? nope
i'd wait to talk shit bro, detroit basketball has quite a few titles under their belt

That's why I'm talking shit. We never win anything.

the pistons have been to the ECF the last 5 yrs
2 finals appearances
1 championship (very close to 2)

untill the cavs win a championship and have consecutive finals appearances, they need to keep quiet...
i'm def bitter about the loss. i just loved dtown's style of ball, where all 5 put points on the board. team ball in its purest form with no superstar.
so much better as opposed to the superstar ball, where one player scores and the rest are mostly scrubs (varejio, igauskas, hughes)
