NBA Playoffs 2011 Discussion Thread

I'd take Bosh over anyone listed below 5.
Just cause his numbers went down and he is now on the most highly criticized team in the NBA, doesn't mean he lost his game.
You ask where he ranked last year in Toronto, or previous years, dudes would say top 5 easily. And you can't even deny that.

Over Griffin and Love???? Crazy.

Lol, no you can check that thread. LeBron is undoubtedly the best player in this league.
Also though, you can take that argument and apply it to a few of those guys you listed, soft or not. You put Griffin, West, Randolph, Love, etc on the Heat, their numbers go down significantly, as does pretty much all of them.
Also, Dirk is soft as shit, but he is still the best PF in the league. These days, lots of PFs are soft, just the way the NBA is changing.

Whether their stats would go down or not is debateable. Bosh's style doesn't fit Miami's nearly as well as a post-up power forward would, meaning their stats might not go down as much as you think.

And Dirk is shedding his soft label. I've called Dirk soft more times than anyone over the years but I'm starting to stop. Maybe just because he out toughed Pau Gasol (also incredibly soft).

i'd definitely take Blake over Bosh

but Bosh and Love is a tossup. i think I lean Love though

 

[DJT]

Love got 20 and 20 for how many straight games??? Not even close in my book.

that shouldnt make you stop calling dirk soft
he still is. he's having a great postseason, but he hasnt done anything to make me stop thinking he's soft

Look where they play, come on. lol
Talented as fuck, absolutely. But I don't think they would translate that well on a better team.

Everything in the NBA is debatable lol. Just some shit we can never figure out like this haha. But personally I take Bosh over most of those guys.

And that's like winning the best cake competition

on a garbage ass team..

 

[DJT]

Bosh would NOT get 20 and 20 for however many games Love did....not even on Minny. Ya'll know that.

Timberwolves are pathetic though lol.
Who is he going to steal rebounds and points from in the paint? Darko? Pekovic? lol
And believe me, I love Love lol. I think he is better than Griffin.

 

[DJT]

I know the Wolves suck, but Bosh still wouldn't get 20 and 20 there.

Love didn't average 20 and 20 there? lol

 

[DJT]

Love didn't average 20 and 20 there? lol

I didn't say he did, but he had like 20+ straight games of 20 and 20, or however many it was....Bosh WOULD not do that.

i better be seeing a $100,000 fine
>.<

the precedent has been set, dammit
hell, i know you guys saw that anti-gay jared dudley/grant hill commercial

 

[The Young One]

Bulls are just getting their ass beat..honestly. They are starting to look shook

Korver doesnt need to see anymore minutes at this point..brewer/bogans/deng need all the wing minutes..you're tiring out your best players chasing around bron and wade..while korver isnt even touching the ball

20 and 20 on a team that finished with the worst record in the NBA.
I'd take Bosh and his 20 and 10, cause he got his team to the playoffs at least a few times. Granted they didn't do much lol.

 

[The Young One]

Last thing too..Boozer should sent Bosh a apology card..I mean my god man he's just owning you this series.

If Love had Wade and James, they'd be in the playoffs lol.

im in agreement with you taking bosh over love, but in love's defense, the east when bosh was making the playoffs was extremely week
