David Aldridge: "This team being older it may be tougher"

Rondo: "Maybe not, look at us.... We'll be fine" then just walks away lol.

Just my opinion but I think the Cavs supporting cast was just as good if not better.

These playoffs have been borderline unwatchable so far.

Hoping for a good one tonight though.

Gasol HAS to have a big game if the Lakers are going to win.

Yeah, I'll post it when I dont feel like being lazy. Just think the biggest difference between the teams was the performance of the star, one carried his team and one didnt.

Back to game 7...

I haven't had any problem watching the OKC-Dallas series, the LA-Denver series, the LA-Memphis series, and the Philly-Boston game was solid as well.

Faried impresses me. He'll be pretty darn good in a few years.

Honestly, nothing.

I can't help but love Ty. He's my favorite Tar Heel of all time, minus MJ.

Those 2 series have been very good. The other 6 were all terrible.

And Philly-Boston is garbage. Same thing with Boston-Atlanta in round 1. A couple of the games were decent, but who cares? That series has no chance of making any difference in how things turn out.

Also, I definitely don't miss Ramon Sessions' defense.

while la/memphis has been good, some of those 4th quarter chuck offs between rudy gay and mo williams were painful

I was joking, rather have TY as well. I feel like the kid could be an all star

Now stop trolling.
You think Bosh is going to admit Lebron wanted to go back to Cleveland, but didn't when he couldn't find another piece? No way he does that to Lebron

Keep in mind the context of that interview. Those guys had taken heat for supposedly conspiring to play together. Doubtful they admit to anything of the sort

People think I'm stupid, but I can't believe somebody honestly believes the Cavs-minus Lebron would be better than Dirk-less Mavs.

The Mavs were so deep last year.

And you don't think the Cavs' FO would leak a report that they have a deal in place for Bosh to save face and direct all blame towards LBJ?

See how easy it is to spin something?

Fact is, my link was straight from Bosh's mouth. Your link just reported that a "deal was in place, pending Bosh's approval"

You are incredibly naive if you think Bosh, Wade, and LBJ didn't have this preconceived plan in place. LeBron quit on the Cavs in the postseason that year and Miami cleared out a SHIT TON of cap space. They don't do that unless Pat Riley knows.
