NBA Finals Game 2 PG: Well that escalated quickly

[fast-break]

Crazy how in this run, LeBron had a block, an assist & scored. So much for being an "average player". Dennis Rodman can suck a dick. He's probably butthurt over Zo telling people that Scottie Pippen said Bron could whop Jordan's ass...

A block, an assist, A STEAL, then a dunk.

That's such a crazy sequence looking back...

That's LeBron James in a nutshell.

That was a sweet pass by Miller btw - Behind the back with 2 defenders on him

Yeah, but the eyes fool us a lot. A few things I consider. Spo is one of the big stats geeks as a coach, so he tracks the numbers. Bron has adjusted his game so much over the three seasons, to become more efficient, and play to his strengths, that you know he's analyzed these numbers. I can't think of any other basketball reason than Wade is a unreliable jumpshooter, and their defenders are usually quite samey, meaning you can't actually force a mismatch on the pnr.

I mean, part of what makes pnr such a useful tool is that if the defense doesn't switch, you can wipe a man off the ball and get penetration into the defense. If they switch, then you have a potential mismatch in size and speed. So if you're bringing two athletic wing of similar dimensions, and one of the attackers is a kinda weak shooter, you slump off and date them to take a jumpshot, or drive into a double-team of the two best wing defenders on the floor. I'm not an Xs and Os person, just going on what I understand of the game. But so much time has elapsed without it being even a randomly-featured part of our offense should tell all. This is one of the smartest BBIQ teams in the league, and they just don't think it's a smart play. PEACE.

the problem with wade is whenever he hurts his knee, his jumpshot goes to complete ****.

his injury plays a HUGE part in it too. because wade has always been able to use a pick to his advantage. and post injury it seems like he only can do it a few times.

He was deadly using screens last night in the first half, especially with Bosh. The advantage him and somebody like Chalmers hold against LeBron in this series is their ability to attack the gaps in the zone. The only thing Wade needs to practice over and over again is his pull-up jump shot. They're sagging off of him, with or without the ball. When he hit the pull-up jumper last night, Green played him a little tighter, allowing Wade to attack the basket much easier.

look at him during the streak, his jumper looked money and smooth. no fading, nice lift. perfect.

the minute he gets the bone bruise, he starts pump faking 3 times when no one is on him. fades when no one is on him, and starts clanking the front of the rim.

i liked his play in the first half. he kept us in it when lebron was struggling. then the second half bron came alive a bit.

Oh man the Bulls' thread is hilarious. Pretty much every board is giving the Heat credit except that one. And they're still talking about the day Lebron rejected their team. Pathetic but I guess I understand I mean they root for the Bulls which is as bad as rooting for the Bears with the Packers in the same division, they will never win a championship being the second best team in their own division and probably 4th best in the conference even with a healthy Rose.

their obsession lies in they don't want anyone but Michael Jordan to be loved. Its really unhealthy. They complain about the attention lebron gets but who else do they want this attention to go to?

and its really weird because no one was/is as loved as MJ, no one gets criticized like Lebron, no one...for as much props as he gets, he gets torn down just as much. MJ was/is untouchable.

I'm shocked that some of you guys still lurk the Bulls board. It was hilarious to lurk their board when we beat them because of all the whining and delusional bs they were saying but now it's just plain stupidity. I never seen a board filled with idiots, including 3 mods on there. Basically looking at the Bulls board now is like listening to Charles Barkley saying the Spurs were going to sweep us...

I just realized you couldn't even hear our PA announcer when Ray hit that 3, who is the loudest guy in the arena at times. The whole sequence was amazing. People still find a way to hate it

Yeah, people including myself and this board rag on our fans at times, but it sounded like a complete madhouse on TV last night, I can't even imagine how loud it was in person.
