NBA: *** NBA Playoffs Thread V2.0 ***

87% of game 3 winners win the series. 70% of game 5 winners win the series. No home team has ever lost game 7. Something has got to give in game 7! Can'w wait!
 
The salt in the wound is Lebron's crying. It is so pathetic. It's one thing to throw up your arms but when it actually hurts your team on the other side of the court, it makes it impossible to respect the player and the person.
 
Is there a better interview than Pop?

"How do you get your team ready for game 7?"
"We get on the bus. They drop us off on the ramp over there. We go out on the court and we play."

Just like Duncan complaining about every single foul call.

That's the one thing about being a Lebron fan that I absolutely hate!

it is pathetic, the fact he doesn't realize it affects calls later on is one of the many reasons why he'll never reach Jordan status.

Watch Tim Duncan down low. He cries to the ref and flails his arms whenever he doesn't get a call. It's not just LBJ. People just notice LBJ's more often because everything he does in under a microscope.
 
Everybody and their mom are going to count out the Spurs.

I'm feeling pretty decent about their chances.

Though, as a fan, I don't know how you recover from that game.....let alone a player.


talking to a friend about this. Situations like this I guess are why they make big bank. Because if that was me I wouldn't be able to come back mentally from this game.

Wait, you can't respect a player who guards the other team's best player and still puts up 30 pts and a triple double?

I know you're rooting for the other team, but come on man. James is a flopper extraordinaire. That doesn't mean I'm gonna just ignore the amazing basketball he produces.
