Anyone interested in a game thread for the NBA finals?
I don't really like the r/NBA ones, there's too many people and no real discussion. If there's enough interest I was thinking of making a game thread here for game 3.
OK but please be aware I'm a complete cunt when Lebron wins anything. Fair warning.
And as a thunder fan I am a complete cunt when kd wins anything.
Sadly, that wasn't a problem in 2012. I had such high hopes for those guys.
Sport is so weird, the coaches treat it like a science, the players treat it like a stage and the audience treats it like a soap opera.
"Sport is so weird, the coaches treat it like a science, the players treat it like a stage and the audience treats it like a soap opera" lol deep.
But seriously though thinking of 2012 makes me sad. Thinking of 2016 is even worse.
The 2016 playoffs was a bucket of anuses all round. But I can understand why KD left. Rooting for Russ Russ is either like HOLY SHIT, GOD OF FURY, or FOR FUCKS SAKE RUSS YOU TWAT. I couldn't take it.
See but the thing is kd chocked just as bad. I agree that russ is inconsistent though , some days he's a god, others he's a brick machine.
What pisses me of is not that kd left ( I could have got over that) its that he left to the team that went 73-9 and beat us. That changed my whole view of kd and I belive history will remember him as a coward that took the easiest path to a ring.
At the end of the day I think neither KD or Steph has that true alpha dog gene it takes to get past somebody who does, like Lebron. Steph is stoppable if his shot doesn't fall or the refs let people beat him up, KD kind of moseys along and gets his either way but it doesn't seem like he can just go into that "I refuse to lose" gear some guys have got. It makes sense to me that they teamed up, they didn't have the personalities to get it done by themselves. If that's what it takes to rub Lebron's nose in shit, then I'm all for it.
I think this postseason has proven the Warriors aren't the superteam people were thinking they were, though. They're soft, beatable and have been very, very lucky with opponent injuries in the playoffs.
Yeah I think that would be great
That'd be awesome. At this rate we will only have an opportunity to do 2 :( How is David West hitting wide open 3s while JR and Green can't hit the broadside of a barn?
Not a big sports fan. But yesterday I saw the last 2 quarters of the game. It was a massacre.
