I am only kidding and busting modogg chops a little. Let's not act like all fans don't do this crap.
I want to say maybe he finally learned his lesson about his lack of commitment hamstringing his own team, but it's probably just about Bron Jr. This contract length frees him up as his son nears the NBA. But he still plans to compete. It just may be a couple years.
Odds were always the GS would win, but it was totally within the realm of possibility. Rockets had to miss 27 ####### 3s in a row and have Paul’s leg fall off.
Or ... maybe at the time he didn't think he was going to leave. But that was 4 years ago. Things change in 4 years.
seriously that is a good call. Hopefully they give Silver a few more years and a raise while the organizations do what they want. Well, except for Philly and Sam Hinkie because that would be bad.
I agree that Iggy being healthy and Paul being healthy and the Warrior probably win, but there is a chance Houston could have changed it up and won that series.
Yeah, I definitely under estimated that dynamic. A Jason Lloyd interview sometime amidst the Isaiah debacle is when reality struck. More so with Griff than the other two.
and if he leaves for a better situation i think it is explainable. But to leave to a ####-show of an organization is just disrespectful to the whole state of Ohio.
It's mostly Sixers fans. Get use to it. I got to hear all about it when the league stepped in on their whole tanking. Sixers fans would even go after each other for not agreeing with Tanking either saying hey aren't a real fan and don't know how basketball works, etc etc. I was actually stepping in defending people in those situations. And god forbid you said anything bad about Hinkie you were done for. I kind of warned a lot of 76ers fans mostly on the pages, my old message board friends etc. Some of them acted like it was a guarantee Lebron was coming to Philly.

I'm sure those were his plans, but given the dysfunction at the top he remembered why he left the first time.
That's just disrespectful to Indy. The Cavs played MUCH better against the Pacers than they did the Celtics and the Pacers had a great shot at winning that series.
Cool. Understand. Get that I’m not going to move the needle with any Boston fans. And if I was a fan of them I’d be optimistic too. Lots to feel good about. I like what thier doing a lot and Danny has done an outstanding job. I just don’t think they’ve got what it takes to compete with the top teams in the west. But I hope they do, makes for a much more interesting Finals.
I agree but did you forget Wilt Chamberlain played in the NBA for yrs? He's a top 2 player that many consider the best all time.
lol, ok DJackson i think you have said enough. One, i am the only one butt-hurt here, not the rest of the Sixers fan. This ###-Clown cost me money because he defied rational thought and any reasonable basketball IQ. And in all honesty, NBA fans in general should be a little dissapointed in not being able to see some great 76er-Celtics games in the playoffs and the growth of a promising young team.
And if Boston didn't get 3 happy in game 7 probably close it out and are playing in the Finals too.
Sure, Rockets were 33% to win the series which is the highest of any team in the past two seasons.
and if the Sixers can make a basket in the last 2 minutes of the games they are in the championship.
In full disclosure, I am not a big NBA guy, but the Cavs have always been my team. My godfather was team's original owner (childhood friend of my dad). I used to go to a lot of games when I was young.
We don't know yet...Hayward played about 5 minutes last year and Kyrie had his issues...have not seen the full squad together yet...I have been very adamant that Hayward is going make a bigger impact than many believe he will...his game is tailor-made for what Stevens wants to do...I could still see Ainge doing something big...he is not gonna let Rozier or Smart simply walk and with all those picks he has ammo to put something together...right now they are in a very good spot in the East...how close they will be to a team like the Warriors is still TBD since we don't know how this will look with Kyrie and Hayward playing together and how much of a jump Brown and Tatum make...
I was one of the first to call that BS out that you quoted. He only left Mia because he knew Wade and Bosh couldn't carry a load anymore and Clevland had Kyrie and picks and cap room. It was never about the good story of returning home for a title. If Wade was still in his Prime and Bosh wasn't dealing with injury what makes anyone think Lebron doesn't stay in MIA?
I don't think it is. All Leonard has to say is he's going to be a Laker in a year and it forces all hands.
I'm not trying to act like not all fans do this. Some of these people are also Eagles and Phillies fans. I'm just saying what I noticed in the city. I don't remember Eagles or Phillies fans having anything close to the attitude Sixers fans were giving people though. Plus it was pretty annoying to hear "Trust The process" all the time when it was a blatant tank job. I'm not saying they are terrible fans either. Just annoying and comical at the same time. Heck I have a boss who was pretty bosterioous that it was all but guaranteed Leonard and Lebron were coming to Philly this summer. It's all I heard for months after his Giants were a disaster this past season.
If you told me otherwise I would have reported you for trolling.Would it shock you that he’s white and goofy looking?
Glad I didn't have to write any of this. The only thing you might have forgot is him maximizing his income. And if he really knew about this for a long time like some people say, it's a pretty Dbag move to walk off the court like he did after game 4 this year. Salute those fans.
I wanted him. WHos the guy who didn't want Hezonja on the Knicks? I'll give you Cameron Payne and some Philly Water ice for Hezonja. Add a Chicago Pizza in there too
