:D But I'm, going to watch cause LEBRON is just amazing to watch.... Houston just KILLED the Jazz, and GWS made the Pelicans look like penguins ....Western Finals are starting to look like an epic showdown :boxing: :hello1: \:D/
jazz need rubio, very different team without him running point. we'll see if the pelicans can turn it around, tho I thought portland would have been a better matchup against gsw, too bad they had to face the pelicans. yea, toronto will probably win the series, but the cavs finally had some fleeting signs of defensive intensity in that game 7. if someone not named lebron can put up decent numbers and defense improves a little more, they may win the series.

indiana's pretty physical, and they let a lot more stuff go in the playoffs. I'd be surprised if lebron can get up for game 1 with 1 day rest, he looked like he went through a 12-rounder :boxing: after game 7.

:o I couldn't believe the amount of "bunny" shots at the rim they missed....some of those shots were in the bucket, and they would rattle out! :o ....CRAZY. I can't believe how hard the raptors have played all season long to get HOME court advantage..... :cry: Can't wait for the next ALBUM from DRAKE! :lol: :lol:

gotta change my outlook after this game, it's either going to go down to the wire, or I could also see this game mentally killing toronto. the sweeps by lebron and the cavs year after year could get in their head and they get swept or go 4-1.

on the topic of choke, there's a large breathing-impairing playoff cloud hovering over the the careers of the stars in houston. i'm hoping they can blow that away and take on the warriors who are no longer hampered by injury. pelicans looked pretty strong that last game tho, playoff rondo is fun to watch - we'll see if the series turns when they get back home

there's an asteroid headed toward the Canadian dinosaurs, and it's name is LeBron.

:o LEBRON just handed Toronto the worst follow up game to a bad lost....what a beat down! :- I'm totally stunned by the fortunes of the Raptors.....I really though it was their time. NOW, blow up the team, and start all over.

I TOTALLY AGREE with you about HOUSTON.... "large breathing-impairing playoff cloud hovering over the careers of James Harden and Chris Paul" looks more like a Tornado than Storm Cloud. With Curry back( and he looked gassed- for 28 points :lol: :lol: ), and the Warriors are coming out to PLAYYAY....Killing it! Pelicans better win big tonight or even close win, cause a lost would be detrimental to their future steps in being a serious contender.....

:o What's even more stunning is that LeBron has more last second game wining shots than Michael Jordon and Kobe Bryant combine! :read: There's no doubt on the greatness of LeBron James, and he will go down in the annals' of NBA history as one of the greatest to play the game.... :hello1:

do you have a source? I don't think that can be true and I'd want to check their numbers.

although looking closely at the spelling, I'd also have to agree that your statement is 100% true.. I would even go as far as saying LeBron James has more last second game winning shots than Michael Jordon, Kobe Bryant, Walt Chamberlain, Magic Johnsen, Larry Byrd, _and_ Karim Abdul-Jabbar combined! :lol:

:-? Well, I really thought the SIXERs would prevail, but the inexperience's.....bad plays on offense.....turnovers....CELTICs just outplayed them. Series done. Oh well, CAVs vs Celtics, and I see LeBron dominating that series as well......GWS vs Rockets are going to be a barn burner. \:D/ :wink:

:o Celtics just RAN over the CAVs, and LeBron looked like he was tired and done by the start of the 3rd quarter......Man on MAN, Celtics just look like a way better team, but it's only GAME 1...

Speaking of GAME 1, Rockets and Warriors get it going today! \:D/

:-? After watching both series game 3, I'm starting to wonder, who's really going to beat GWS? OMG, Curry went off in the second half of yesterday's game, and the ROCKETs could not stop him. Add KD with his usual, and the ROCKETs are really depending on CP and JH to by ALL world beaters isn't going to work. Celtic's can win the series....as long as they don't lose at HOME, LeBron season SHOULD come to an end :o :- ...easier said than done. :-$
