2014 NBA Playoffs Thread

[Mexi]

See,you guys are cant comprehend what im saying

A few bounces here and there doesnt make either team clearly the better one

Yes portland couldve swept
So could houston
And this couldve also just as easily gone 7

It was way too close of a series to call one team better than the other

 

[Mexi]

Its the same as the ringz arguments and team records stuff i hate

 

[Mexi]

Seriously
Rockets 672 points
Blazers 670 points

How can you say portland is the better team? They just got a little more luck collectively ( im not talking damians shot, just overall bounces of the ball)

Congrats, but this easily couldve been reversed

Man that was a fucking great game, sad to see that series ending. 
 
Lillard is a fucking stud.

Just admit you were wrong haha

 

[Mexi]

Well shit, that series was a crap shoot

We all were wrong. No one thought it would be that even even if people picked portland to win
No gloating allowed with that series, seriously

Sports are fundamentally probabilistic

 

[Mexi]

Sigh good night
Dont know how much ill be able to post tomorrow. Im freaking jammed up from like 12 to 1am

I think its a good thing im missing the games. Watch them for me, im your sacrificial lamb

 

[RipCity32]

I see where Mexi is coming. I think Portland ultimately played better in the series. And I don't want to take any credit away from them, but I'd say the Rockets are a better team. 
 
I mean, you wouldn't say the Warriors that upset the Mavs a few years back were a better team, but just a hungrier team who played better, and a terrible matchup for the Mavs.

 

[Mexi]

Honestly, this was so close that asik only playing 12 mins game 1 and 24 game 2 was probably the difference

12 minutes game 1

 

[Hurricane Season]

Houston needs a defensive stopper late in games

Like they had ronnie brewer. He coulda been in there over harden on the last play, maybe its different

Little things like that

And lin has to go. He will too, you guys think they wont trade him but i PROMISE theyll find a partner

 
Deng

 

[Mexi]

Interesting idea
then they can flip parsons for a pg?

 

[RipCity32]

Who though? Can't really think of any PGs that could be traded right now. 
 
Unless they want Jennings lol. I'd gladly take Parsons

Don't really see Boston moving him now if they didn't do it last season.
Harden handles the ball enough as is, IDK how he and Rondo would mesh.

 

[Mexi]

If anything, he needs help

 

[Mexi]

Id pursue melo hardcore though because idk how they can upgrade at point anyways besides rondo

Unless they can steal kyle lowry

 

[jonathanlambert33]

I never got the idea that Houston was better than Portland in that series.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

And it's funny that the four guys that forced their way out, Melo, Dwight, CP3, and D Williams, all advanced the furthest with their original teams? LA and Brooklyn are obviously still alive, but I thought that was funny.

Dame has the clutch gene
