No problem bro. As far as i will meet guys there and the court would be open. Then no qualms

you can go there early but make sure you hold your ball as the malam won't want to drop ball as he doesn't know you but if you come 3-3:30 boys go don dey dere

SIRcumalot:

no excuses from me.
if the warriors should win this series even if they lose this nite. I would fully concede the following.
-we are officially in the warriors era.
-LeBron can't call himself the best player in the league or on the planet anymore.
that is curry title now.

chokers or no chokers this na LeBron roster from lue to the last man in rotation,and the crazy thing is,this a very good team any other team in the league apart from GSW and Cleveland would probably win the championship.
whatever moves they make in the off-season should they lose,is to try to counter the warriors in every way possible.

My Guy, whats up. Great points you have there.
While I agree with you on This is Lebron team/roster, I feel the Cavs need to just develop their own type of style/plays that work for them. That is what GSW do and OKC and Spurs. If the Cavs keep trying to counter teams like GSW, whats the guaranty they even meet in the finals again? what if Cavs meet Spurs in next years finals? All the planning for GSW would be for naught (for all we know Cavs may not even make it to the finals next year - Go Raptors) and then Spurs maybe blow them away because Spurs play Spurs basketball.

Find what works for you and stick to it, I mentioned before in my earlier posts about management taking the Organization 5, 6, 7, 8 moves ahead! So far Cavs are just playing catchup, they do not have a solid basketball identity

I just hope GSW 3peats on CAVS BACK to BACK to BACK

Honestly with the way the Cavs are structured, they will have hard time beating GSW in the finals. You might have your 3 peat

I disagree they have their own style it just isn't working against this warriors.
you dey right it really should just be any team in the West that they should watch except for Miami if bosh is well again.
you better pray biyombo and derozan no waka Comot.

Most underrated comment today.

My people, let us not beat this dead horse. Green or no Green, it ends today.

I feel for Bron, because he is a legend in every sense, but his era is done.

I want to watch angry warriors today. Wow. That's what I really need.

Haha, I'm sure Ujiri will work some African Brotherhood thing with Biyombo hahaha
Derozan ain't going anywhere man, where else can he get what he has in TO? (well, I pray and hope not)

Its happening tonight king James. Its a Do or Die Game tonight. Let's get this win. #ALLIN

U already know!!!


Regardless who wins, it has been a very interesting, thrilling and captivating 2016 playoffs, the emotions haven't been lost all the way here in NL thread's cyberspace, as we have all poured out our different opinions and ideas on how the playoffs panned out.

I would like to salute all NBA fans here that made the thread very spicy and educational (y'all know yourselves), thanks it was needed!

Goodluck to the champions in waiting! I wish it can be extended though to Game 7 cos I aint gon lie, I have been enjoying all these playoff nights with my pals here ( U know..in the sitting room with beer, wager on the table, putting out the fire...)

Once again its Game 5 NBA playoff finals Y'all, Let's do this!!!!!!

Its been an interestin playoffs you know. and also interesting how people get in a bandwagon train and diminish a great player accomplishmnt and throw jabs to the fans. i dont want that to end real quick
Your brackets too. definition of an O.G
Yes that's the hook. it's Game 5 of NBA playoffs finals.

WATCH THE WARRIORS BLOW THE CAVS OUT OF OAKLAND BEFORE THE 5TH MINUTE MARK OF THE 4TH QUARTER

Counting down to the Warriors winning the Championship tonight. T - 5 hours.

Are you talking about queen Lebron " cry baby" James?

The warriors have the home court advantage but without green. I am doubtful that they will have an easy win. Trust me, he is a vital part of this team. His peculiar defensive techniques brings the A game out of his team mates. I am a die hard fan but let's not under rate the skillful touches of irving and his brilliance for the cavs. I see iguodala playing tough and an improvement in curry's shots. If we can take out irving, and play hard on lebron with the home support and good threes. We would knock them out.

Just had to share this. From last year

How can they when they have put all their eggs in LeQueen's basket. How do you get players to go all in in such situation? If they win he gets the credit, if they lose they get all the blame.

Not saying there is one way to win a Chip but when 4 players in your starting V come from the draft its so much easier to forge an identity

Bobbieydeey:


What are you even saying, drifting away from the main subject, isit a crime to call the ref out? NO!!! You don't type like a sport man, u just watch sport and come up with views. Cry this cry that I'm tired of yall

Why should draymond even use such word on another player to the extent the media knew about it...... You can't be getting fouled and not voice it out loud.

You are just a certified hater. What team do you support oga?

Your boy is a puna abeg. For all his ishan he is such a mental midget. Openly whining about fouls, his actions in Game 4 screamed frustration. Its a shame his coach or should I say yes-man also cannot help but enable him.

I hope the Warriors put up a beatdown on the Cavs even worse than the Celtics did the Lakers in 08

Now to the Draymond matter. I think Draymond only has himself to blame. He knew the shenanigans his actions in the previous round put him into. He was at the point that even if LeHype whoze am e suppose turn the other cheek, I woulda been screaming blue murder if he was a first time offender

Mizzzbeee:
OKAY, CHECK THIS OUT: I respect LeBron James for EVERYTHING he does off the court... He is the greatest all-around player the game have ever seen. (Not the best player EVER though...JORDAN.) He is a tremendous guy. But he is about to learn that you simply cannot PUNK your way into an NBA Title. Ever since he came into to media's focus (At 17 years of age, he's been called THE CHOSEN ONE.), LeBron James has had a sense of entitlement. And it's been well-deserved, because we have never seen anyone with the wide array of skills he has put on display for 13 years.


When it's all said and done he will finish with 32-35K points, 9-10 K rebounds and 7-8K assists. Phenomenal. Having said that, His recent actions have indicated that 1) The NBA has gotten waayyyy too soft; 2) He is doing whatever he can to protect his brand and/or bring the city of Cleveland its first sports title in 52 years; or, in the alternative 3) he's acting a little spoiled/insecure or is threatened by the meteoric notoriety of Stephen Curry. Why do I say this? 1) Think about his comments after Steph Curry became the NBA's first unanimous MVP - "They should redefine the definition of MVP." - NEVER MIND THE FACT THAT HE'S A FOUR-TIME RECIPIENT OF THE AWARD. 2) His Comments about Golden State's Steve Kerr and his Coach-Of-The-Year Award. (He felt another coach deserved it - Terry Stotts of Portland). and now this...


After Game Four, he and coach Tyronn Lue proceeded to go on a long tirade about the officiating - Ironically, The Cavaliers have been the more physical team throughout the series - of which included the Draymond Green incident where he precipitated Draymond's reaction by stepping over/straddling him. Should Draymond been suspended for this? OF COURSE NOT. I'VE SAT COURTSIDE AND HEARD A WHOLE LOT WORSE FROM THE GAME'S FIERCEST COMPETITORS. (But I will say that his ban is the culmination of everything) Having watched basketball for over 40 years, I have never seen anything like this "Whimpery." And the ringleader of all this crying is the game's greatest talent. REAL GANSTAS MOVE IN SILENCE, LADIES AND GENTLEMAN.


This, right here is exactly why as great as Lebron James Is, he will never be considered the Greatest there ever was. It's almost as if he's showing a lack of mental toughness against what may be his greatest challenge, and that's sad for the basketball purists. Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, George Mikan, Hal Greer, Wilt, Kareem, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Reggie Miller, Gary Payton, Isaiah, Shaq , Kobe, Charles Oakley, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, John Stockton and Michael Jordan are shaking their heads right about now.----BY William Cooper #Endorsed

He's a snitch bi*h like Lucious Lyon sang and a mental midget. That guy been no need yarn pass that one

Hmm

It's BRUTAL IN OAKLAND

Id love to see who wins finals MVP tho

Bobbieydeey:
