Just like that, the San Antonio Spurs have slipped into 10th position in the western conference. Kawahi has to come back and going into the next year, the Spurs have to do a better job at drafting and picking up better free agents because they have slipped in that expertise recently.

A team I pegged at 65+ wins with Kawhi and LMA finding his form. I just hope Kawhi doesn't get rushed come Thursday, otherwise he'll join Jimmy G and the rest.

The injuries to Spurs, Celtics, Warriors and Cavs be like football something...
Re: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 2:23pm On Mar 13, 2018
Might as well rush Kawhi back. They haven't exactly been hitting home runs with their recent draft picks, which is understandable since most of them are late first rounders at best.

Incredible that the last time they've been in this spot was the 96/97 season
Re: The NBA Begins by lolawilliams(f): 8:17pm On Mar 13, 2018
The Cavs are having a bad season but it's very disrespectful to give them 0.01% when they will end up beating Raptors 26.2% in P/offs.

Loool what is the Cavs record against teams from the West? Jokes apart these Cavs won't make the playoffs if they played in the West. I don't recall any Western team from seeds 1-10 that have not beaten them to a pulp at some point
Reason why I don't want leBron going to another finals. 3-6 jokes wont be funny at all

Lol making the playoffs should be priority right now. Too early to start talking about Finals


How does OKC struggle with every bare team every damn game?? I don't know between them and the Cavs who is worse at this.

Danny Ainge na proper oso. Avery Bradley out for the season. Though with Marcus Smart out indefinitely e be like say ojoro don cancel

Re: The NBA Begins by redarrr(m): 5:58am On Mar 14, 2018
its going to be painful if d rockets don't get to d NBA finals cos am a feeling dat Chris Paul might injure as usual and dat team might nt stop d warriors to getting d finals
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:40am On Mar 14, 2018
Seems Lue has grown some balls. JR has officially been relegated to the bench. Let's see how this works out but I'm cautiously optimistic. We're getting rid of the cancer from the starting line up.

Hill (Maybe Clarkson)
Hood
LeBron
Love
Nance

The finals will be interesting.

The Cavs will definitely make the playoffs that's very certain but how far they would go is what I can't tell. I've said it before, this Cavs team isn't a championship team. The team is becoming a boring team to watch.

We need more billboards from top teams, LeBron should leave, he has gotten a ring for them already.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 9:11am On Mar 14, 2018
Mehn Lonzo needs to work on his scoring arsenal.


If his 3ball ain't falling,nothing else to give him points. angry


Hoping to see some major improvements by next season.

Was just messing around. Who would stop them in that watery East?

I'd wait to see how Kevin Love is when he returns because thus far only the Raptors look like a real threat to keep Cleveland from the finals.

Lebron would leave. He don't need no billboards! We all know this

He had better. I believe magic Johnson dropped the ball by trading a potentially great shoot first guard Russell because of lonzo. Just look at how Good randle has become with time, the same would have happened with Russell.

They've been a great team in playoffs for the past 3years but this year is what I can't really say. I have this feeling they won't go to the finals, I don't even want him in the finals, we LeBron fans can't stand a 3-6 jokes smiley

He's definitely leaving, eve the Cavs organization knows this.

Nope. I see it as 9 straight finals. Imagine losing to Kyrie's Celtics instead? How embarrassing would that be? Or if Kyrie's Celtics make the finals and the Cavs don't? Naaah. I'm down with a 9th straight finals appearance.

Besides. Don't be too hasty to judge. They will get better, maybe not championship better but sweep the east better when Kevin love comes back.

And who knows? No western team will go through the western conference without adversity. I'm already praying for Steph's ankles, KDs Knee and Hardens Elbow.
Re: The NBA Begins by Decale: 8:59pm On Mar 14, 2018
Lol.

The whole NBA needs to shut down for a few days

Good riddance.

I said that cause of Jeffrey fans, they bring that up a lot and fail to compare them to their contemporaries

Yes, it would be embarrassing to see LBJ lose earlier in playoffs but I think it would be more embarrassing to see him in another finals and end up losing again, at this moment whenever i think of an nba finals, all i think of is Lebron battling and carrying his team against the more talented team from the west cause I have this feeling the Cavs team haven't completely found their groove yet but like you said, let's see what K.love would bring to the table when he's back

Russell is more of a shooting guard. A very inefficient one at that! He was not leading the Lakers anywhere.

Once Lonzo sorts out his shooting form he could be good.

But Russell is still a better shot than Lonzo.

Magic wanted a pass first PG who thank God can play defense plus the whole saga didn't help matters.

Besides, there are enough shooters on that roster. Even the center shoots better than the PGs. Shooting no be the problem...

There's a reason we've never had 4 straight NBA Finals featuring the same teams. It's incredibly difficult to do. I'm even worried about Golden State because the injuries are piling up

I think if they don't get Love back they are definitely not getting to the Finals unless something weird happens to Toronto.

Where would you have LeNomad go?
