You are on crack if you think Memphis will be allowed to be physical in the 4th quarter

Correct.

smh i remember that. gasol was getting bullied like a middle school nerd bro and nobody was going to do anything about it. but lets not get it twisted, zbo can probably squat and deadlift 10x more than gasoft so lebrons not going 2 be doing that to zbo ill tell u that

Y'all act like Miami coming out the east is a given.

Is it not? The Bulls are choosing a UFC route, The Pacers rely too heavily on Paul George, and the Knicks are limping through their playoff run. I'm not saying they'll sweep their way in, but I only see Indiana being the match to watch out for, and even then without Granger it won't be enough.  

As far as LeBron flopping, you can't lie like that out there for the press. Everybody flops, but at least own up to it. Regardless, he's still the best player on the court, just because he flops it doesn't change that fact. Just wish he'd cut the crap.

Shane will get some minutes on Z Bo too.

Everyone failed to mention that Miami will probably just try to zone up on Memphis.

I hate the complaining of flopping from the players. Its the refs fault for identifying flops. The players play to win and if flopping helps them win, they will do it, regardless of who they are. If refs stop calling flops, THE FLOPS will slow down and soon than later end.

Not even just Crawford, but Crawford AND Bennett Salvatore. Those dudes are going to get into a back and forth of who can call the most technicals and bad calls in general. Ibaka guarded ZBo last game so him and Perk didn't interact much, don't think ZBo wants it with Ibaka.

I don't think ZBo wants to disrupt whatever mental state Ibaka is in right now.

If Memphis had a go to guy in the clutch, I'd definitely be worried.

With Spoelstra moving around and playing Lebron more at the 4 this postseason, Memphis would have some tough decisions to make.

 

[duba169]

If Miami role players hit their 3's game over. That simple.

 

[Animal Thug]

Cole will shut Bayless down.

 

[jpzx]

Y'all are already discussing match-ups in The Finals?

 

[$tacy]

u gotta b crazy to think lebron would do zbo like he did pau. Only thing bron n battier could do is challenge the shot or FLOP.

 

[jj watt]

Y'all are already discussing match-ups in The Finals?

[dirtybuhbuhnew]

Oh rley? You disagree?

 

[hypebeast5]

Cole will not lock up bayless ever!!!

[antidope]

For the record i took no offesne to anythuing it was all jokes. I saw some of those comments Ska, the funniest part was how people were reacting to it. "Antidope has gone off the deep end, you shouldnt have lied to your mom Antidope"

Lebron should be proud of the flopping. Its a legit basketball play and hes using everything at his disposal to win.

Spoiler: Warning%3A%20Spoiler!

“It’s kind of the same as when people said I was overrated, I have the same response,” James said. “I don’t need to flop. I play an aggressive game but I don’t flop. I’ve never been one of those guys. I don’t need to flop. I don’t even know how to do it. So it doesn’t mean much to me.”

I was watching first take and somehow lebron's response magically turned into

"I'm very aggressive, that is not my type of game"

It's crazy how far NBA and ESPN literally work together to protect his image. He's lucky too because his PR people have always been ******ed.
