Pretty weak Game 7's today, hopefully GSW-LAC won't disappoint

Post #2 » by **DefenseWins** » Sun May 4, 2014 2:58 am

The expected results have been happening...

Blowouts in Indiana and OKC

Nets-Raps I hope Raps blow out Nets, but that's unlikely. Nets I feel are going to win, smh.

So far NO real upsets

SAS-MAVS, I think Spurs got that one. Unless a miracle like game 3 happens for the Mavs.

Wouldn't mind the Nets. We owe them an ass whooping & it's good for the sake of RealGM servers if the Raps/Heat don't play each other :lol:

At this point I just want to watch HEAT whooping asses... anyone will do. 8-)

I am so sick of all those dramatic and seemingly exciting series going to game 7 only to disappoint in a spectacular fashion :evil:

Nets, Pacers, Thunder Spurs, it doesn't really matter. :naaa:

This is from BSPN :banghead:

The title of the article (on the website) says ""Durant to dethrone LeBron as MVP"
http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/10878958/kevin-durant-oklahoma-city-thunder-named-mvp-according-sources

Of course, this conveniently showed up right after OKC took a comfortable lead over Memphis in the second half of the game 7.

At what point in this regular season was LeBron gunning for an MVP or trying to defend his previous title(s)???
KD was gunning for it all season and he deserved it this year, but he didn't take **** away from LeBron, none!

Garbage like this really pisses me off :banghead:

It's ok. Media loves to act like Tony Allen didn't have KD shock for 4 str8 games

Post #7 » by **IggieCC** » Sun May 4, 2014 4:00 am

True. I am just going to ignore the media for now and focus on the Heat.

Tuesday cannot come soon enough 8-)

Knew LAC-GSW would be the best game 7 so far

Post #9 » by **DefenseWins** » Sun May 4, 2014 5:38 am

The Clips are winning because GSW keeps forgetting about Jordan and he just keeps dunking lol

Wow GSW was horrible down the stretch. Oh well

Clips losing to OKC anyway lol

Call me crazy, but I think the Mavs could sneak away with a win

Kenny Smith just said the Pacers overlooked the Atlanta Hawks...This dude is a clown. The Hawks basically choked this series away in Game 6. It's not overlooking when a team comes into your building in the same month & blows you out 3 times in your own gym (Regular seasons & playoffs)

But yet we're not going to 3 Peat because of Wade missing a defensive assignment on Al Jefferson in Round 1? :rofl:

For as much criticism as Shaq gets (which is well deserved) Kenny Smith is right up there. I wouldn't mind Grant Hill or Chris Webber replacing Kenny Smith on the TNT panel tbh

That was the dumbest "analysis" I have heard in a while. The Pacers have been playing like hot garbage for more than 2 months. How did **** did they overlook the Hawks? He says they were too caught up with Miami, that doesn't even make any sense.

If I'm a Wizards fan nothing the Pacers did in games 6 & 7 concerns me. Basically they won those games because Atlanta 3's stop falling. WSH presents more of a challenge to INDY than ATL did because they can score on you in so many different ways on offense unlike the one dimensional atlanta hawks

Exactly, the crap that he spews is hilarious. He's been throwing slick shots at us for years. How the hell were the Pacers too caught up in Miami? Goodness I would pay to see him leave TNT

I remember last year he would say there's no way we could repeat because we don't rebound well. It's like he hasn't seen them play for more than 2 months. They have been hot stinking garbage and he's making excuses for them going to game 7 against an 8th seed. Give me a break.

I hope the Wizards sweep the Pacers. I have friends who are casual NBA fans and even they hate the Pacers for their showboating against the Hawks. They are such an unlikeable team.

Yep, they're very unlikeable. After every made basket Lance Stephenson walks around taunting like he's some big tough guy & Roy Hibbert has adapted to a new role cheering on the bench after having 0 pts & 0 rebs :lol:

Man I wish they would try that same bs taunting/showboating by our bench like how they did the Hawks in Game 2, it won't end well for them at all. I think the Wizards beat them in 6 but if not I wouldn't mind taking them out for the 3rd straight time. If we beat them again, that means that core is going to break up

At this rate seeing how last night's game 7's turned out...

Nets will be too much for the Raps

Spurs will whoop the Mavs

i do think raps will beat the nets in that crazy atmosphere up there in toronto... lowry, derozan will go crazy... the second game will be close as it gets but in the end parker and duncan will lead them to victory in crunch time...

who cares
the only team that matters is the one holding the trophy at the end of it all

True, but the method in which they get there is what fuels the media.
