*** the official 2014-15 nba finals thread ***

[mrJR]

I see a lot of hating comments on the cavs I don't know what you've been reading. people giving warriors all this credit like they all that when they suppose to have dominated the cavs. If the cavs can take this series to 7 games that should be the highlight of the series not the warriors winning the chip.

Dumb ass logic.... These are the 2 best teams in the league this year. Whoever wins it should be the team talked about and getting credit. LeBron has been to 5 straight finals, of course this was not going to be a cakewalk and if you or others thought it was stop listening to the dumb ass media. Warriors are ALL THAT, they're repping the WEST in the finals. I see a lot of hating comments on the Warriors and if Steph grabs the damn ball in game 3 after Green swats him and they save it then it's GAME OVER and series over after today.

A few averages for the series (5 games)...

LeBron James 36.6 points (39.9 FG%), 12.4 rebounds, 8.8 assists, 34.4 3PT%, 3.0 TOV
Timothy Mozgov 13.4 points (53.7 FG%), 6.6 rebounds, 1.0 blocks

Steph Curry 26.2 points (44.6 FG%), 5.0 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 40.7 3PT% (22 made*), 5.0 TOV
Andre Iguodala 14.6 points (54.9 FG%), 6.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists

*Danny Green's 27 3 pointer's made (on only 49 attempts) in 2013 is the NBA Finals record

Yeah if that nigga wear platform shoes

MJ played in a whole different kind of offense during the championship years.

Why are people glossing over that fact?

Who on the cavs right now can you trust to handle the ball and make plays?

The triangle offense and the help MJ had (which people are basing their assumptions on, the championship teams and not the early Jordan years) left him with more energy than Lebron has.

MJ never played in a finals with a team this depleted and dependent on him. MJ wasn't bringing the ball up every set, having to set up every play, having to carry such a leadership role on the court AND in the lockerroom.

So you can use that emoji all you like, but the Jordan you are thinking of wouldn't be the actual Jordan we'd see- 12 years into his career and playing against a high powered offense with an injury plagued team.

He wouldn't be going to the rack every time out in the same situation. It's a silly assumption that doesn't factor in anything.

 

[BDR]

Damn RR niggas in here getting on you

 

[Amajorfucup]

How does a Draymont Green and Andre Iguodola get to the line more than a Lebron James? Im just askin?

largebills, feel free to chime in after you wash your face.

(i only saw 2 hack-a-shaq on Andre)

 

[gene cisco]

man, don't start THIS damn argument again.

when it comes to MJ, lebron is close, but he's not even closer than kobe, imo; he's a different type of player.

for example, blatt, kerr, and EVERYBODY watching would if steph curry was left out on wing guarding MJ. no disrespect to steph, but MJ going to the rack 100% of the time and finishing over him.

lebron is passing the ball.

There is a legit argument for Lebron being the MVP of this finals and cats still want to talk shit. 40 points, 14 rebounds, and 11 assists and playing 228 out of 250 minutes and cats nitpicking about some Curry on an exhausted Lebron(god help Lebron if curry flops).

You could live to be 100 and won't see numbers like that again. You could live to be 100 and won't see one man carry a group like this to win 2 games in the finals.

Swear this cat could go for 50 20 and 20 with the Cavs taking the next game and some of you cats would be like "But MJ would have (insert whatever the fuck here)."

Shit. Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I'm sure there will be a parade to the freethrow line for the Cavs in game 6.

Doubt it. We havent seen him get calls all series.

 

[stretchwallz]

It's clearly been iggy on both sides of the ball. Curry has had one good shooting game... Iggy has been their best and most consistent player...easily

If averaging 40, 12, and 8 means you're not the MVP but your main defender is ? you are truly the GOAT

You're the MVP because you stopped him from averaging 52, 20, and 14 ?

 

[Helico-pterFunk]

Great series so far. Enjoyed game 5. Shit ... how many lead changes were there in total? About 15 or so?

 

[drowzie]

I don't know why you niggas are bitching now the Cavs are getting that azz handed to them. When they were winning the 2 games, niggas was on some LeBron the greatest thing alive and that nigg the greatest, to now the nigga ain't got no help, his team is weak, etc...He putting up the same numbers, why yall giving different analysis. They only have 1 offensive set, is the reason they are not going to win this series. Iso on the weak side with LeBron all day, and let him choose the play from there. It's what won you 2 games, so you gotta ride with it. Especially with no Kyrie Irving (true PG). GS is oing exactly what I would have done from the beginning, let LBJ beat you by himself, take the other role players out the game....shit he cant score 100 on his own.

They won't give it to the mvp of the losing team.

Iggy isn't defending Lebron every play and he's been the most consistent player for the Warriors. Excluding the 4th quarter of game 4 and then game 5, Curry has had very little impact. Iggy has also been the one pushing the pace...which is the main reason why they're winning games now.

.

Settling for jump shots with smaller players on him has always been a problem for Lebron. He's been doing it his entire career. People have complained it out every single season. We all know the context of the triple post and this injury-depleted team. Sit your ass down. He's gassed and asked to do too much. Shooting fadeaway jumpshots when you have a player 100 pounds lighter than you defending you in inexcuseable in damn near every scenario.

 

[Spectrum]

A few averages for the series (5 games)...

LeBron James 36.6 points (39.9 FG%), 12.4 rebounds, 8.8 assists, 34.4 3PT%, 3.0 TOV
Timothy Mozgov 13.4 points (53.7 FG%), 6.6 rebounds, 1.0 blocks

Blatt keeping Mozgov off not only puts more pressure on Lebron to be a scorer...he then needs to roll to the paint to rebound. Notice how much easy rebounds Lebron missed in game 5? That's because he needs to be able to take some plays off on defense to be able to do everything else he's asked to do.

If Curry has another monster game thy going to give it to him but I agree with the insertion of iggy into the starting line up its been a wrap

Yeah. And Curry seems to have found his groove now... yeah..one more good game and it's his. I think they'll give it to him regardless though.

There is precedence in other sports and the NBA

Jerry West was named finals MVP 1969 on the losing end of Bill Russel's Celtics. West is a CAC though ...

[D-TOWN REP]

stop making up imaginary arguments.

nobody in here is hating on the cavs. not 1 soul.

and the team ain't at full strength and it never was going to be at full strength

apparently this is the 1st time anybody has heard of kyrie irving and kevin love

they get fucking injured. just as its a guaranteed that lebron will get in the finals

it is a guarantee that somehow someway those 2 will be injured. period.

Exactly

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Ungrateful, dislyal, bitchmade ofays from a shit town that nobody gave a fuck about before Bron came and made them relevant. Disgraveful.


Man stop it. Bron putting up historic numbers on a shit team and the officiating stinks. What do you want folk to discuss?

Yea man shit is disgusting

I hope he leaves that shit town again

Rich Paul u better take care of Lebron

 

[D-TOWN REP]

And if the warriors win Iggy ain't winning MVP just like Gasol didn't win in 2010

The star player gets it period

Oh. I know they've done it before, but the game has changed. Curry is next man up to be the face of the NBA. NBA is a massive business now... they're going to do what's best for the brand.

This is why I wished he didn't give those clowns the satusfication of going back.. But for his sake I hope he has some defacto ownership stake in the team because it ain't no valid reason why he shouldn't went back there..

You quoting like one caller out of a 1000 man. Folks are going in on Blatt, Smith, and Shumpert. Blatt might not make it out the Q alive if he sits Mozgov next game and the Cavs losing.

Another game like Sunday, and the Aussie going right back under the bus like he been all season. Fans hated him until recently. Easy come, easy go when there ain't been a champion up here in 50 years.

Folks up here in awe of what Lebron has done. Unless Curry goes batshit with the stats Tuesday, expect crazy shit to happen if Lebron isn't named MVP if GS takes it here.
