I can smell now the finals match up cavs vs okc |
Re: The NBA Begins by Skywalker5(m): 3:43am On May 28, 2016 |
lolawilliams: Not okc, warriors are coming back.Okc can't handle them cavs. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 3:45am On May 28, 2016 |
lolawilliams:Congratulations.. Why do you prefer OKC? |
Re: The NBA Begins by lolawilliams(f): 3:49am On May 28, 2016 |
SmooshCHN:You know they got that home court adv. I dont prefer them, but it looks like they have more chance of winning at home. So I think its cavs vs okc |
Re: The NBA Begins by lolawilliams(f): 3:50am On May 28, 2016 |
Skywalker5:Okc would be so silly to let gsw win again.. That home court adv is working for them. I think it will be cavs okc |

Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 4:07am On May 28, 2016 |
okc deserves to go ahead and they are a better matchup. this cavs team will maul the warriors. okc has a backcourt that cannot only score, but can get physical. plus durant and westbrook are due one ring i think. did i mention they (westbrook and durant) are also humble, not dancing and beating their chest after every play. or chewing their mouth guard like its gum |
Re: The NBA Begins by Skywalker5(m): 4:08am On May 28, 2016 |
birdman: Humble? |

birdman: 1. OKC deserves to go ahead. YES. 2. They are a better matchup? FRAUD NO. 3. Cavs teams will Maul warriors? Comic relief. 4. Beating chest and raising one finger is him saying "God I am playing for you". He said he came up with it in college with his mum. Now funny thing about OKC is. The way they have played this series against GSW is the way they alone could have played GSW. They don't match up well against Cavs at all. It will be like Cavs vs Raptors. Each will steal close home games but Cavs will win because of home court. OKC still depend on KD and Westbrook compared to a 3-man Cavs team. Anyone who wants a Cavs vs OKC final, wants Cavs to win it. Period. 2 Likes |

birdman: You no see the recent thrash wey e spill on Curry? https://www.instagram.com/p/BF6g_k8jBtG/ I like KD but he has been quite vocal this playoff and it's rubbing the wrong way in my opinion. |
Re: The NBA Begins by lolawilliams(f): 4:23am On May 28, 2016 |
Kudos to Lebron James to achieve 6th consecutive Finals appearence, he is the first player in 50years to accomplish that. This "east is garbage" argument is old.. #AllIn216 #June2Finals #CavsNation 1 Like |

birdman:Dancing/In game celebration and chewing mouth guard is now a criteria for who's not the better match up for a NBA FINALS. Or the same Backcourt that eliminated Cavs in 6 in last year's Finals?? Or Westbrook that did his pre-game dance competition with Cameron Payne or his teammates in every playoff games?? what what has chewing your mouth guard or in game or pregame dance or humility got to even do with Playing and Qualifying for a NBA FINALS?? Man, I never expected you to say something this sort. |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 4:39am On May 28, 2016 |
I admire James determination, hardwork and work ethics.. And most importantly, knowing his way to success, exploring the privilege or opportunity and doing a good job to make use of it. |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 4:52am On May 28, 2016 |
Eruditor: its more than that bro. all the "im baaack" and dancing etc...you realize the reason even durant is playing pissed is all the extra-curricular crap these guys do. I bet you the most of the warrior starting 5 dont have many nba friends... when you showboat excessively, you rub the general nba family the wrong way. but lets leave that alone..if you can make curry's incredible shots, beat your chest all you want. On to technical issues. You say OKC dont match up well with cleveland. At which positions? Because the backcourt of OKC >>> than backcourt of cleveland both on offense and defense. And the cavs stretch 4's lose their advantage. Love and Frye can stretch you defense and knock down 3's but guess what? OKC has 3-4 forward-centers who are happy to run around all day. And they are the leagues top rebounding frontcourt this playoffs, negating Love and Thompson's offensive rebounds. So where is this matchup favoring cavs other than the position Lebron is playing |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 4:53am On May 28, 2016 |
SmooshCHN: man, read the whole thing. I never said chewing mouthguard was why they were a better matchup or not. I clearly said backcourt matchp (ALL caps no good ). Man... |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 5:00am On May 28, 2016 |
Skywalker5: thats what i was saying in my other post. have you seen durant throwing that kind of shade towards any other current playoffs opponent? look at the video you posted now... you can see the obvious malice in the way westbrook is even chuckling. see the nba is a family. most of these guys competing against each other vacation buddies. everyone knows someone who knows someone - give or take, you have a good chance of running into other nba players in any given week especially in the offseason. Which is why when you win, you win graciously. And warriors are not gracious - which is why other players are enjoying throwing shade their way. And its not just this playoffs - the talk has been going on all season |
Re: The NBA Begins by Mizzzbeee(f): 7:09am On May 28, 2016 |
birdman:so okc has been gracious and humble?? Westbrook is one corky fellow... Ever watched any of his interviews? Curry beating his chest has a meaning he has been doing that since college so what is your problem Westbrook shows nasty emotions and taunts on the court, LBJ does that too... CURRY shouting Am back is hell necessary... Birdman You done fall my hand with this your talk can you point to one thing the warriors do, that no other player or team does WESTBROOK HUMBLE MY ASS MTCHEWW 1 Like |
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 7:24am On May 28, 2016 |
Mizzzbeee: eh, I know lots of you love Curry. cool. but his antics on the court, imagine some other player doing them. I know you guys wont be so forgiving. warriors are not the first to win a ring. westbrook has attitude...nothing wrong with that, its his job. but you dont see anyone crapping on westbrook, because chest beating and antics have time, place and limit. |
Re: The NBA Begins by Mizzzbeee(f): 7:27am On May 28, 2016 |
birdman:as I said what antics? Beating his chest has nothing to do with anyone and him showing emotions comes with the game tell me what he does that no one or team does AM WAITING MAN!!! U JUST WITCH HUNTING especially calling Westbrook humble just proves u r witch hunting |
Re: The NBA Begins by Mizzzbeee(f): 7:30am On May 28, 2016 |
birdman:oh now nothing wrong with Westbrook attitude wow OK it's official u trolling! Ciao |
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 7:44am On May 28, 2016 |
If any Warriors should be a thorn in the flesh and annoying it's should be Draymond Green not close to Curry.. Put some Respek on his name.. The San Antonio Spurs should be everyone's friend because they're so Gracious and don't show emotion.. 2 Likes |

Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 8:03am On May 28, 2016 |
S/O to lebron though. Going to the Nba finals 6 times in a row is incredible, regardless if the conference was weak or his teams were just too dominant. I also wonder if history will say he went 2-6 in the finals, or 3-5 in the finals in the next 20 to 30 years. Will people give him props for coming out of the east and losing to the western conference so much or will they forget he lost to the WCF and just regard him as someone who went to the finals so freaking much only winning two or three? I wonder how much this affects his status going forward, especially if he does not win this time. Still a great player you have to admit, but he whines too damn much |
Re: The NBA Begins by SIRcumalot: 8:22am On May 28, 2016 |
Donlittle:they will remember the final records and not the final conferences sometimes I wonder myself how strong was the east in Jordan's time? as it always been this weak ? from what I know a Celtics and Detroit became too old the Riley's Knicks for awhile shaq and Penny in Orlando and Miller's pacer. none of them lasted very long,maybe the west as always been this crazy. I think one thing to consider when it comes to LeBron his he has gone into this finals as the underdog three times out of six. 1 Like |

Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 8:31am On May 28, 2016 |
Lol. Either Birdman is trolling or doesn't like Curry at all. I choose the latter cos his comments and top 10 players list this season strengthen that point. Bro, if you want to be an NBA fan, try and be impartial. It's the best to go Curry hasn't done anything most NBA players haven't done. Your Rockets Harden worse pass sef, trying to shimmy after a crossover. Curry himself said it that hard work got him where he was but every play he makes is to the Lord. If you say he's cocky, he'd have displayed that at the interviews, even at replying shades thrown at him since college. Lastly, congratulations to Cavs and James. Regardless of the conference, he has set a record for himself and deserves to be mentioned with the greats. 2 Likes |
