Can ATL at least try to finish around the rim?

or maybe grad a defensive rebound?

or perhaps get to the FT line?

my god the wizards are such a dirty team.

how many cheap shots are they going to take on lebron this series??? jesus christ.


WOW you retard cavs fan. Lebron is such a baby, the guy is fucking 6'9'' 260, you can't stop him from putting the ball in the hoop if you choose to foul unless you foul him hard. You dont foul him hard and he makes tough shots. The Songaila foul i have to say was an accident (though who knows it may not have been).

I have to say, LeBron is by far the most dominant player in the NBA, Z kills us every time he gets the ball, but somehow, someway, the Cavs can't dominate. I really don't get it. besides Boobie, Z, and Bron, the team is a worthless sack of crap it seems.

lol @ retard cavs fan

I watch a ton of basketball, not just cavs games. I feel I'm very objective and at times, even overly critical of the Cavs.

If you have watched some of the fouls I'm talking about (which you clearly have *not*), you'd know what I'm talking about. There is a huge difference between hard fouls, which come naturally with playoff basketball, and blatant cheap shots such as shoves into cameras into the side and blows to the head. It's a joke. Couple that with all the **** talking the wizards have done, and I look at them like a bunch of thugs. But then again since i'm a cavs fan I must be biased. Rolling Eyes


I'm a wizards fan. I watched the whole series. I've seen the fouls you are talking about. I disagree with your assesment. /conversation. <3 lukie


I think there were two blatant cheap shots. One was Haywoods in game 2 which probably should've gotten him suspended. The second was the Stevenson shot where he basically side-punched James, and it's amazing that he didn't get suspended for it. I think the wizards really were a dirty team in the series and should have toned it down.

Although, i have to say, i think this got started in Game 1 where James basically tried to get Haywood to fight him by pushing Haywood off him when he was standing over.

Lakers are playing awful in the 2nd half. It's like transition offense has gone outta style or something.

the pistons are such epic whiners. also, that shit at the end of the 3rd was terrible. he def didnt get that shot off in 5 seconds, and its a shame that they cant put a stop watch to it to find out for sure. how can the refs just guess how much time went off the clock?

Chris Paul is sick.

Spurs look really outmatched too. Of course, we'll see how they look in SA.

Wow. that lob pass from CP3 to Chandler is like an option play in football. Wait for the last second for the defender to commit and pitch it.

I'd be very surprised if the Spurs don't win both games at home.

meh, you fail to remember we have trouble backing up championships

I just want us to win back-to-back so everyone has to call us a dynasty, not just a v v good team. I want it for Pop more than anyone else, b/c through it all he gets the least bit of credit.

I don't know, I think a lot of people who know basketball realize what a farm Pop has turned the spurs organization into. Franchises want pop's people working for them(See: Seattle), and they want their franchise to be like the Spurs, in large part due to Pop's job as a GM.
I'd argue he gets a lot more credit from NBA people for the success through the years, and he seems like the kind of guy who's okay with that sort of reputation that fans don't necessarily jump all over to embrace.

Well, obviously people who know about the game and are involved in the NBA recognize his skills, but if you asked like 100 regular NBA fans (who didn't live in TX) who the top 3 coaches were, I'd bet 1/2 of them wouldn't say Pop.

Who would they say though? Phil Jackson probably because he's the most famous coach but I can't think of any other coaches that are more well known that Popovich.
