I really don't want to see the criticism that comes from LeBron getting ousted in round 1, because it won't have any merit, but I'd like to see how for real this Indiana team can be.
Miami is not going to beat Philly anyway.
LolBlazers. That being said, I do really like this Pels team and think they could do some damage against GSW. Can't win the series but I bet they go 6.
It doesn't matter how good Dame plays, though. Portland probably doesn't have a good enough roster to even get out of this round regardless of how he plays. They're just not that good. Super fluky 3 seed.
The carrying annoys the shit out of me. Just enforce it. These guys are all 6+ feet. It's not that hard to dribble correctly.
As for travels--call 'em all. I think one of the worst trends at all levels of basketball is the catch, two footed re-set, and shoot. It's definitely a travel, but the...
I'd love to say the Wolves have no chance in game 2 but there's no way KAT is so quiet again. Capela flat out abused him, and Capela can't do anything but dunk on offense.
LeBron had a triple double. Not his fault his teammates sucked for like 80% of the game.
We expect greatness of him and he delivered. He can't do it himself.
The GSW/SAS series ain't even worth watching. Loved what I saw out of Toronto yesterday. That bench really is something. Though a lot of folks were picking the Heat to beat the Sixers, I think Philadelphia showed yesterday that they really should have no trouble with Miami, and I'm not convinced...
It's hard to argue with what the Rockets are doing right now, but I wonder what led them to believing Robert Covington was an expendable asset. They could have him right now, and he'd fit right into Ariza's role.
Hoping he goes to a great quarterback as opposed to the most money. He's a great WR if the quarterback trusts him enough to give him a chance because he never has gotten great separation. It's a treat to watch him catch and run with the ball, though.
They make 5 easy layups in the first half and this is still a game.
Why take 10 point leads at two different points in the second half only to fold over the last 10 minutes? Pathetic
