Interestingly about Steve Kerr in a post game interview I think it was game 6, he constantly mentioned how welled paid they are (NBA players and coaches).  He said it like 5 or 6 times, I had a feeling that the league may have told him, yo it's LBJ's time let him have it, you guys have more chances down the road with the young core.  I mean the way Varejao got extend minutes in game 7?  That was very unusual.  Same with Ezeli's minutes in final minutes.  It made no sense.  Scripted series makes is very hard to watch and enjoy.

Ohh well, I guess I'm just annoyed with how it went down.  I like it fair and I didn't think it was.  I'm not a sore loser in anyway, people beat me fair and square gets 100% of my respect.  I respect skills and even more so, sportsmanship.  So really, I dislike LBJ because I don't think he's a good sportsman because of his petty stuff and I don't think he is as skilled as he can be...

See that is the actual response of a sore loser. CLE beat GSW fair and square and you're looking for any reason you can to justify the loss. Including throwing your coach under the bus. You think Steve Kerr threw the series because the NBA told him to?  :uhhhfacepalm:

*Edit- I should note that I don't actually follow a CLE. I'm a Lebron fan in the same way I'm a Curry and Klay fan. I have huge amounts of respect for DG and think that Steve Kerr breaking his whiteboard is among the single greatest playoff moves ever. But it all comes back to GSW fucking it up and letting CLE back in the door.

That sounds so familiar. I'm sorry.

same..

it's one reason i stopped playing basketball all together (especially pick-up games/streetball).. loved the game, but, all it takes is one spazz intent on inflicting damage on someone, to wreck everything.

It only takes one off season footy player or low level dickhead to ruin a game. I've been thinking about going back to the mouthguard days but feel like a fool wearing a mouthguard playing at such a low level. There are too many guys who don't know how to play properly for my liking though.

Btw Acole, where do you play at?

Have a look at the fouls again:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVVKBIS0TM0" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVVKBIS0TM0</a>

Foul 1- Legit - grabbing TT
Foul 2- Legit - still moving sidewards into Lebron- can't be a no call and wasn't a charge
Foul 3- Legit - grabbed Kyrie going around the screen
Foul 4- Legit - hand on Love's forearm as he shoots
Foul 5- Soft/no cal. Contact on the body but to be consistent should have been play on
Foul 6- Borderline. Steph gets some ball and a decent amount of Lebron's hand/wrist - either way GSW are down by 12 with 4min to go and unlikely to win anyway

Also, don't believe Steve Kerr's comments in his post game interview. He was playing the politician and trying to influence the refs in the next game. He figured a fine is worth another win to them.

As far as DG goes. He kicked Adams in the groin twice and nearly kicked someone else in the face. GSW were lucky he wasn't suspended in that series or you wouldn't have even made it to the finals. Suspensions should be made irrelevant of the game or what's on the line. It was a dog act. Lebron disrespected him yeah but also sucked him into the game too.

As far as Lebron goes as you've stated you have a genuine dislike for him. Imagine being Lebron and the amount of contact you would put up with night after night. You talk about double standards. Look at what iggy was getting away with when he was stripping Lebron of the ball in the early games. The body contact that was left uncalled throughout the series was huge and it went both ways.

If I was a GSW fan I would be looking at the stupid shit Steph did late in games (behind the back pass anyone) and the way your major players went cold down the stretch (no score in the last 4 minutes anyone) as more of a reason they lost than the NBA's money making juggernaut. CLE only scored 4 points in the last 3-4 minutes too so it was anyones.

Good luck sorting things out with your wife mate.

Yeah I'm looking to get the garage better set up. The more I think about it I only need the weights 2-3 days a week max and it makes so much sense to do it there if it's set up well.

SHAQ is goat but with that win lebron surpasses jordan as an all round player, IMHO. We can argue about it though. Where is t0ddday??

i'd still put MJ as GOAT.. 6 titles, even while taking a few years off to play baseball. Easily the most clutch player i've ever seen.

not sure the criteria Lebron would have to meet to achieve GOAT status.. his career has wins and losses. MJ didn't know much about losing. Regardless, Lebron is definitely in the overall debate of "GOAT", that's saying something.

fwiw, jordan stuff:

6× NBA champion (1991–1993, 1996–1998)
6× NBA Finals MVP (1991–1993, 1996–1998)
5× NBA Most Valuable Player (1988, 1991, 1992, 1996, 1998)
14× NBA All-Star (1985–1993, 1996–1998, 2002, 2003)
3× NBA All-Star Game MVP (1988, 1996, 1998)
10× All-NBA First Team (1987–1993, 1996–1998)
All-NBA Second Team (1985)
NBA Defensive Player of the Year (1988)
9× NBA All-Defensive First Team (1988–1993, 1996–1998)
NBA Rookie of the Year (1985)
10× NBA scoring champion (1987–1993, 1996–1998)
3× NBA steals leader (1988, 1990, 1993)
2× NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion (1987, 1988)
NBA playoffs all-time leading scorer
Chicago Bulls all-time leading scorer

:F

Yeah I think people forget what Jordan did and also who he did it against and especially playing in the golden era of the NBA.

Unbelievable. Love so many stories here.

Jefferson gets a ring too which is a great way to cap off his career.

And agreed on Lebron. Being way too unselfish. It's causing turnovers.

Yeah man they do look confused on D. Why they hell does no one get a hand up when Green gets the ball. They're giving him way too much opportunity.
