Is Mark Jackson...

I donno...

mark doing his job. im sure his bosses told him to big up lebron every chance he get. he is the darling of the nba.
the admiration and respect jordan had was organic, but with lebron it seems forced on us

Lebron James is the best basketball player in the world right now, anyone who can't see that doesn't know basketball. It's like saying Jordan wasn't shit in the 90s. And the Cavs as a team right now sucks. 4 of the original starting 5 are out and their bench is terrible. Shump & JR are good players, as is Mozgov, and Thompson is young so he's a player with potential, but aside from them they really don't have shit.

I dunno, I see it the same as Jordan. I was never a Jordan fan and he was the only player talked about in the 90s. But at the same time he was the best player in basketball. The media tends to focus mostly on the stars because casual fans don't pay much attention to anything.

I feel you on the Mark Jackson and Van Gundy shit but the Warriors can definitely be beat by the healthy Cavs. I would've like to see what the Thunder could do without the injuries and my Bulls.

It's annoying hearing it all the time. As Rasan said, it's forced and shoved down everyones throats all the time how he is the greatest. These fools salivate over an ordinary pass ffs LOL

Well they do it with steph curry too, he threw a behind the back pass and it wasnt even on target and they were saying it was a magical pass

while we're on the subject of Steph Curry's passing, fuck his stupid ass hook pass that always gets stolen.....man fuck that shit

He needs to do more pick n rolls he be getting the screener wide open cus hes such a threat

I was at the Palms sportsbook today and the over/under for game 3 is 194. Thats one of the lowest over/unders in any GS game all season, that means the vegas oddsmakers thinking that the cavs gonna D up steph again and keep it low scoring....

If the trend of CLE making it a slow, half court, defensive game continues the rest of the series, that just benefits the cavs, GS would much rather get out and run and hit transition 3's. The vegas bookmakers are very rarely wrong, maybe thats why the price on CLE winning the series has jumped, it was +230 for CLE to win the series before it started, now they've adjusted it to +180, if CLE wins game 3, I wouldnt be surprised to see that fall to +130 or +120, so basically GS is in trouble according to the sharps

Exactly.


Not only are they trying to force it on us, it's worse now because we live in the 24/7 news cycle.

Like him or not he is the greatest player in the world at this time. Props to the Warriors thou lets keep that shit in the west

Sump and Jr are garbaj breh

Shump is coo, you tripping....JR is a shooter who isn't afraid to take the big shots, but that foo does have super off nights where he can't shoot for shit and just ends up being a liability on the floor....JR is that shooter off the bench that can give you points or you can sit his ass right back down if he's off....I wouldn't want either as a starter but but they ain't just trash

ionno duke these Finals stats say otherwise time for Lebron to clean house
#FINALSONLYMATTER

jr hella tucked his tail during those finals. he a slightly below average role player (IMO, based on his finals performance), scared of the moment when it mattered the most and damn near disappeared from the series entirely
shump is a role player who should stick to the catch and shoot and playing D
mozgov and thompson were pretty solid tho

shit woulda been tough for the dubs if the cavs were healthy
but the fact the dubs were healthy w a full roster in the finals speaks volumes bout our depth
speights coulda been better tho

Jr Smith is a bum. He doesnt move around, he doesnt set screens, he doesnt defend, he doesnt do shit except jack up long range off balance 3's. If he ran and moved like Klay and set up his own shot, he could be an all star, and the cavs might not have missed Kyrie so much.
