I think the work he's put in, Lebron deserves to go through tot he next round- we haven't got many years of his prime left, so I'd like to make the most of it. However his teammates are playing like absolute trash and deserve to go home ASAP. Ideally, Lebron should be allowed to defect to the pacers so everyones happy. In fact think the nba should introduce a new rule whereby if a player is so catastrophically let down by their team mates, they should be allowed to defect to the other team mid-playoff series.

Now they're stuck with him for another season (unless they buy him out)- he's not going to accept a bench role without crying about it.

On the few occasions Melo was given shot opportunities he was efficient (3 of 7 pr 42.8 percent). Effort was not the issue as his exertion was clear. Yet, for the 33 (soon to be 34) year old his porousness on the defensive side of the hardwood made him unplayable. To wit, Melo finished with a team worst -18 differential.

The sad part is Melo seems to have taken to OKC, Westbrook and the team, but his services at close to $28 million next season are a waste of cap space. The best OKC can hope for is the highly unlikely possibility Anthony will opt out of his contract so the Thunder can move on from this failed experiment.

They remind me a bit of Thibs' bulls teams. They always would lose key guys going into and during the playoffs. Brown goes down tonight and they just keep going. Next man has worked for them. When the Bucks started the second half on a run and Brown was out I thought that might be it. Rozier and Horford were awesome for them tonight.

That’s the same backward bullshyt you vomit all the time.
No stars? you knew Haywood would get hurt?
Kyrie?
What your are seeing is blue chip youth patience pay off. Rozier afew seasons. If a knick, you’d slammed him for a few seasons. Brown has developed fantastic and Tatum given minute has blue chip talent.

BTW, you sound like a bitter old man.

That's definitely on the coaching staff, the game plan they put in, the adjustments they make, and everybody knowing their roles and buying in. Case and point...

The last thing you want to do is let the Bucks get out in transition with the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Eric Bledsoe able to wreak havoc on the fast break.

In Game 6, the Bucks piled on 25 fast-break points, but in Game 7, the Celtics dropped that number down to... zero.

With Antetokounmpo in early foul trouble, the Bucks struggled to get into their flow for most of the game, but the suffocating defense from Boston made life even more difficult.

don't know what you are talking about. when KP went out, we crumbled. boston on the other hand with their 2nd best player going down on opening night kept on chugging. then their best player went out, they kept winning. and now jalen brown their 3rd best player is out and they're still winning. whereas the greek freak with all that talent couldn't will his team to a win in game 7.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree

Cavs look really bad, Lebron is a Monster but he is too old to carry them to finals by himself

Aw, nice try. Cycling doping was under suspicion for years. Lance lost the technology race as it became a game not winnable.
Did we do the superman thing with Jabbar? Jordan? and Now Lebron?
Is Lebron a roid horse? I don't know. Do they test him? Is Westbrook on the same juice? Durant? Harden?
These guys are amazing.

There were just rumors. His name was mentioned briefly in the Balco scandal. But real talk...I'll always have hat in my heart after that "King of NY" crap. I'll GOOGLE search LeBron PED rumors enough times until it becomes true. This might be the one and only time I root for the Raptors.

No, but who knows? The crying Jordan meme made up for a lot of the suffering he caused me as a fan. No need to dig any further. How do people percieve as an owner down there? Are people calling for him to sell the team?

Nobody really cares. He can do no wrong in this state. Football panthers matter, not hornet.

LeBron's supporting cast is coming through tonite. Good timing because LeBron looks gassed. Has to backup to give himself a "runway" to attack the rim. Thompson and JR playing well.
