Why do the Cavs always choke in the playoffs since Bron arrived? (Serious Question)

[big j 33]

I can assume the 2007 in his screen name is the year he was born, because his arguments are that of a 3 year old.

 

[westcoastsfinest]

who is OP anyways? is he a Laker hater who is pretending to be a Laker fan so the legit Laker fans take the burden?

lock this for reals though

It's Kneesh. Don't take her too seriously. Sometimes you just have to shake your head and laugh.
You right. Look at the Bulls last year though. The Celtics had 3 all-stars ... we didn't even have one.

You right.

Now that you finally "manned" up, I will quit with the horse jokes for good.

EDIT:  Hold up, trying to backtrack, and be quick with the quick edit feature.

I have opinions like everyone else. :kanye shrug:

haha

Get me quoting that re-edit out of here...trying to be slick.

NIKE, what are you talking about.

 

[flowsomuch]

Dear God,

Please don't let S&T turn into the likes of the Jordan Brand forum.

 

[mytoasterspeak]

Lets get the true definition of choke down first. Choke is what the Indians did a few years ago when they were up 3-1 against Boston. Choke is when you are up in the series by lets say, two games, and you lose the series. Choke is when you miss two free throws to ice the game, then your team lose. Choke is when you have an extreme advantage, and you lose. The Cavs didn't choke last year, they lost, so please OP, make sure you understand what choke actually means before proclaiming that somebody choked, cause matter of fact, you choked when you thought of this thread

Well 2 since KG was out. I'm not trying to take anything away from Rose though, the Bulls made that series a lot tougher than I expected, I'm just saying what he did isn't comparable to what Bron did in '07.

 

[eneyekayee]

You know DAMN WELL what I'm talking about.

When I quoted you, all you said was "you right"...

Then, you felt the need quick edit it with the "but they had 3 all stars and we had none" nonsense. 

FYI, KG was in street clothes.

There is a reason they called clvd the mistake on the lake...

There are 3 reasons LeBron's Cavs haven't won an NBA championship yet.

1. Mike Brown can't coach. He's basically a figurehead.
2. LeBron settles for too many long jump shots. I thought he had turned the corner as a jump shooter at the end of last season, but he's still a streaky shooter. He started out the season shooting great from outside, but his 3pt % has fallen off a cliff over the last 1½ months.
3. Lack of a supporting cast. Jamison and Mo Williams are among the Top 50 players in the NBA, so that shouldn't be an issue this season.

   More better.

First off I dont quite get how the cavs choked in last years playoffs against orlando. The reason WHY they lost that series is because they just couldn't match-up well against the magic. Turk and shard were the 2 main reasons on why the cavs didn't win that series. The cavs had no one to match-up well against them. This year i do see the cavs coming out the east (as much as it pains me to admit) but best believe orlando will be their one true road block to make it to the finals. I honestly see them going to a 7 game series without a doubt. Cleveland has always had problems against orlando. Im sure any cavs fans would agree.

We already know the answer.

Stupid Laker fans would've been screaming Magic > Jordan even though Magic was winning rings w/ hall of famers on his side while Jordan was still in high school..
oh wait? doesnt that sound familiar?

Trailblazer fan? lol...I got nothing to say to you...enjoy the lottery...bums

yep, i'm a blazers fan, and a loyal one too...most laker fans are converted bulls fans who needed a bandwagon to jump on once MJ retired. you'll probably be a free agent fan whenever kobe hangs up his sneakers..

There are definitely exceptions, but this is true for the most part. Most Laker fans outside of the SoCal area were former Bulls fans.
