Can the OKC/SA series start already?

Everyone eager to hand SA the series. OKC might shock. Going to be a good one for sure. :smokin

Save the LeBron hate for the finals, LOL. Only series that matters. And we know how he is in the finals, so

All the greats?

I'm a NikeTalk Legend and think that LeBron James is the biggest stat ***** in NBA history.

Garbage. 2-4. 20% outside of 5 feet. The guy guarding him won Finals MVP.

This great is not impressed at all.

No other current player would have remained that competitive with GSW through 6 games replicating the same game plan, which was the correct one designed by Blatt/Lue -- and you'll probably see SA/OKC try to replicate a lot of it in a few weeks.

Some of you still can't figure out that with what was left of that roster the only option CLE had was to slow the game down drastically and just isolate him? Guess what happens when you do that vs a defender the caliber of Iggy and never try to play in transition? The percentage drops! Shocking. But no wing this side of 2006-2009 Kobe and MJ would have had a chance to grind out every possession in that manner and stay in the series, and even then I'm not sure they hold up physically. Same people that came in after the first couple games last June and whined about an iso-centric offense completely missed the point that it was the only thing they could do in the first place. Same people that bring up the FG% can't understand the context of it for that series. On the flip-side, his efficiency numbers while in MIA were inflated as he became more and selective, so the LeBron fans that propped up that probably missed that as well. So I can't blame anyone who throws 'that efficiency' back at them. But yeah, nothing about last years Finals should be looked at through his stats - As gaudy as the totals were or as poor as his FG% was. It's dumb.

how dare you try to interrupt the lebron hatefest with some rationality
 
My NT Bracket is looking struggle.
Might miss 2 first Rd picks for the first time in 3 years.

All good though.
That OKC chip Choice gonna be worth heaps.

Still in it, but others who have the OKC Champ have clean first rounds.

While it's the Thunders Year, it doesn't appear to be a-friends

Didn't he shoot under 40% in finals? That efficiency

Oh word? He was by himself that series bro. If he at least had Kyrie, he would have been fine. He was so great that finals that they thought about awarding him Finals MVP even if he lost. Thats greatness bro.


You probably read the #s without even watching a game.

If kyrie was healthy his numbers go down and they lose in the finals anyways

His legacy of empty stat padding is better off without kyrie playing

Already struck out with ATL winning, CLIPS losing (possibly), and probably HEAT and TOR also :lol:

"LeBron Era"

What a sad era :lol:

LeBron is a great player until he faces quality teams.

Word.

Was never a Kobe fan, but shed a tear when he left.

LeBron on paper is a really good player though, and for his size, no one else like him.

Disclaimer: LeBron is my least favorite player EVER to play. BUT, gotta give him credit where credit is due. I wouldn't put him with the greats though. Top 10 maybe. The greats close series and win championships.
