Even the 3-1 lead that is seemingly unassailable gets frequently overturned like we saw with the Knights and the Sharks. Winning the President's Cup is almost the kiss of death. I think the Blackhawks and Red Wings are the only two teams in 20 years who have won that and won the Cup

After this first round I find it really difficult to predict a certain team winning it all. The teams are ridiculously evenly matched. However I'd go for a Bruins vs Blues Stanley Cup Finals

Anybody that put money on these spoilers would be laughing to the bank today like I am

When this becomes a hot topic in the league in future, you'll remember my post.

birdman:
Word on the street is the playoffs ratings are down this year. which is strange to me cuz we have had some of the most exciting bball back to back to back this year.

Is it because Lebron is not playing or peoples just tired of GS steamrolling to another 'ship. I know I avoided GS Portland series. Who wants to see accident in slow motion

smoosh20:
I guess the Warriors need to start losing every game and series and make the NBA interesting to get the ratings up since teams have refused to step up.

Bunch of confused fans who want equality of outcome are the ones mad keep shouting about how the warriors made the NBA so boring like it's their fault OKC or Boston got swept in the playoffs.

How dare you! How dare you!!

Lool I caught the part where he correctly identified the GOAT

A40:
Finals H2H 3-1 including a sweep. I'm sure he's moved on from one weakside block

A40:
I know a wasteman when I see one. The Bucks better trade Eric Bledsoe. He's their Harrison Barnes

ZenHallewell:


After they flew to the Hamptons to cry to KD? LOL 2016 will always haunt the warriors, its their marquee season/currys too and they bottled it all thanks to king james. Thats why their fans are still obsessed with him.

And mark me, they are about to blow that 3-1 playoff lead.

chic2pimp:


Bruhhhh He just signed a new contract so He'll be there for the forseeable future. Plus no team with playoff ambitions will take His contract.

A40:
Of course the way and manner of the loss will sting somewhat. I'm still mad about how we lost to United in 1999 but we knocked them out 3 times since then so it's all good.

I bet Bronsexuals are madder at KD than Curry fans are mad at LeNomad. That's why they are attacking KD both on print and social media.

Your man's is out of the title picture. It's better you wake up and smell the roses. Anthony Davis, Baron Davis, Viola Davis. No more titles for LeNomad

Roland17:


Nice prediction there. I watched the final game and it was typical Blues on display. They pounded and bullied the Sharks into submission basically. They seem highly motivated to bring Stanley to St Louis but I can’t support them na! We are serious rivals in the central division so I am going Bruins. The Bruins have a strong power play, the best goaltender(Rask) in this year’s and playoff and a very deep bench.

Bunch of confused fans who want equality of outcome are the ones mad keep shouting about how the warriors made the NBA so boring like it's their fault teams like OKC, Utah, etc keep getting swept in the playoffs. Fans need to understand that other teams just need to step up.

A40:
Doesn't have to be. Could be to a tanking team. His yearly average is under $20mil. Decent in today's NBA. As he ages and the small athleticism he has diminishes he would get even worse

ZenHallewell:

I have nothing against Curry or Iggy or Klay or the donkey, i know they're lebrons b-tches, KD too but it just sucks that this dweeb joined the warriors and now he thinks hes all that, LOL! There hasnt been an NBA champion since 2016 so I'm not as mad as i would be if the warriors as they were had come back to beat the cavs twice. KD ruined the league, and hes a punk for that, hes an even bigger punk if he doesnt rectify that mistake. i dont have a problem with the warriors core.


And you really think lebron is out of the title picture? LOL! You're in for a rude awakening.

chic2pimp:


Trade Him to a G League if need be. They simply need to get His Contract off their wage books to stand a chance of ever competiting for the Title. Time to write off this season and look forward to the next as Bud isn't going to ever drop the Bum.

A40:

LeNomad also ruined the league when he joined up with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh and for the first time in league history we saw 3 stars in their athletic primes come together. You can imagine how crestfallen the rest of the league was, wondering who would save us from not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4 titles that that alliance of evil threatened to win.

Payback is really a muthaphucka and I'm immensely satisfied that LeNomad is the worst affected from that move same way he tried to ruin league parity back in 2010. Ojoro cancel ojoro

As for KD the only reason I would want for him to leave the Warriors is if he really wanted to leave for himself or because the Warriors made it untenable for him to stay. Overwhelmingly loud Bronsexuals will not stop hating KD even if he won a Championship leading the Phoenix Suns so proving anything to them is a waste of time. He would probably never be included in the GOAT discussion so what would his leaving prove to anybody.

From a business standpoint leaving arguably the richest region of North America makes even less sense

KarnThornheart:


Okay this Bledsoe slander has to stop. Man has a bad series and suddenly he's cancer? Lol! He'll bounce back. Bledsoe may not be the best shooting or scoring point guard but he's solid and an amazing defended too. He just needs to step up.

aliondo:


When was that?

ZenHallewell:

How did he ruin the league when there were so many other good teams better or on par with them? Did the heat win 73 games and go to the finals when he signed? did the heat have the years MVP? LOL!

ZenHallewell:

This literally makes no sense whatsoever. The same move? LMAO! Did lebron join the orlando magic or celtics? no, he tried to beat them. When lebron choked against dallas did he go join them the year after or made sure he went all the way the next year? What payback? that lebron had a decent team around him for once? LOL! Like i said, zero sense. If KD had joined the wizards and teamed up with wall and another star i wouldnt blame him, or joined any other team for that matter. This guy had a 3-1 lead against this team, choked and then joined them the year later after they won 73 games and came back from the finals. Thats the weakest move any superstar has ever pulled in the history of the NBA.

ZenHallewell:

Like i always say, if the lakers can get kawhi/kyrie and then get AD? LOOOL! KD can stay. Lets see how he does against a good lebron team, lets see how the rest of the warriors will do against this team. All people are saying is he should prove he can carry a team so why will people hate on him if he wins with the suns? If the lakers can get one superstar i hope he leaves, if they can get a FA and AD, i pray he stays so lebron can whoop his candy as-.

ZenHallewell:

NY is a huge market where he will not be second fiddle to Steph so he will sell more jerseys and shoes, will be revered more by the fans and seen universally as the savior of the wretched knicks. As far as other businesses, he can run them from anywhere this is the 21st century.

ZenHallewell:
My Favorite NBA Players will surprise most, people assume i hate certain players because i say bad things about them. I say bad things about everyone.

Lebron



Kevin Love

Kyrie Irving

Curry

Lillard

Kawhi

A40:

Better than the Heat? Lol this is a bad joke. Between 2010-2014 the Heat were the winningest team in the League. No? In the East the Heat's competition was Derrick Rose and Luol Deng then subsequently baby Paul George and Roy Hibbert

By virtue of their 4 straight Finals they were the best team in the league bar none. LeNomad was the reigning MVP and teleported to join 2 other top 15 or 20 players in the league at the time. Pound for pound it was the same thing

Name one team that year that had 3 All-stars beside the Miami Heat


Who appointed you Judge and Jury of the NBA to arbitrate which move was worse than the other?

You're legit the one not making sense. Why would LeNomad join the teams whose best 3 players are at an average age of 35 even if they beat him?

Or the Magic who had just Dwight and Lewis when you can link up with two of the top 5 players in your draft who so happens to be among the top 15/20 players in the league?

What would be left of the league if everyone left their undesirable situations. If Dirk had left Dallas, if Hakeem left Houston, Reggie left Indy, Lillard left Portland. The players that stayed with their franchise through thick and thin do they have two heads??

Keep the same energy at all times. What is good for the Jews should be good for Uganda


You're hilarious. It would take LeNomad a miracle to win one more ring. Especially this 35 year old version who is staring down the barrel of Father Time

If prime LeNomad who played both ends with the Heatles went 2 of 4 then you're in for spectacular disappointment if you think he would fare better even if they added AD and Kyrie alone


Why did LeNomad come to LA? Aren't we in the 21st century? He could have gone anywhere else. KD does not have the star power of Steph or LeNomad. The charisma is not there so forget about ever outselling those two.

Hardetayour:
Man said Wilt like he was alive to witness him play

steady986:

Did LeBron make them reach 4 straight finals or did they make 4 finals before LeBron joined them, I'm confused
