James Harden "Best Shooting Guard in the league" "Superstar" MY ASS. Harden shot 28% in Game 1 & he shot 31% in one of the biggest games of the season for 18 PTS LMAOOOO. DAT EFFICIENCY THO

Dwyane wade at his age with that roster would win the championship this year

DWade at that age was rivaling Kobe for best player in the world.

Can't blame Dwight for anything that's happened....he's played his *** off.

Game 1: 27 points, 15 rebounds
Game 2: 32 points, 14 rebounds

What more can Barkley and Shaq want? Harden's been terrible, but KD will still say he's better than Wade. :lol:

Nah bruh. He's been getting some great looks that he normally makes but the NBA zebras are locking him down by not awarding him for his head jerking flailing arms attempts when he drives to the rim

So looking at our path:

Bobcats - WIN
Nets
Wizards (Pacers?)

WHO?
Here are the teams out West I really want to avoid: Spurs, Clippers, Blazers, Rockets

The good news for us is The Blazers/Rockets/Spurs will only have ONE team emerge to the WCF. I think the Clippers and Thunder go either way. So luck CAN be on our side.

If we end up getting the Mavs (best case, but least likely), Golden State (scary good, but too young to win right now), Grizz (scary too, but not good enough to beat a Finals-inspired Heat team), or Thunder (a good matchup for us) we should be OK.

Harden disappears when it really counts. Wade doesn't. So I never ever want to hear the great James Harden mentioned in the same breath, same stratosphere as Dwyane Wade. Show up when it counts, then we'll talk.

D12 would be in heaven with all of the lob passes from Wade. It would be '06 all over again. Except D12 is in his prime too.

This. He builds confidence in each game because he knows he can get a few cheap points here and there when he needs them, but in this series, he's not getting those calls so all he's left with are those horrible step acid and he's not making any if those. He looks visibly shook on the offensive end now that he's not getting those cheap ass points.

The western side of the playoffs earned the title of the "Wild Wild West". OKC, Spurs, Clips & Houston could all get upset-ed in the first round, i'm just being honest

That would be awesome if it happened. I remember last year when the GSW should have been up 2-0 on the Spurs, went back to Oakland and the Spurs proceeded to take over. If the Mavs win game 3, they have a great shot; if the Spurs win game three, I can see them easily rolling to three wins in a row.

So true. Wade at 24 won the NBA title lol.

WOW! What a playoffs so far.

I've watched every game in it's entirety apart from the 3 blowouts which I watched until it was as good as over.

What about Dwight's start last night - incredible but LA must be the player of the playoffs so far 2 times 40pts with the rebounds as well.

My wife is getting a bit annoyed that I'm spending 6+ hours a day watching basketball.
