Re: 2/26 - 3/4 Games Discussion Thread

Someone had posted like their next 14 games they needed to go 12-2

I don't even think that's possible anyway

LeBron walks off the floor into the tunnel before the final buzzer.... story book

Thank god he didn’t hit them with that Cavs one and a option to keep ‘em honest. That’s usually when he peels the jersey off and we gotta sit through weeks of speculating on whether he’s staying or going even though he clearly told us with the walk off early that he was done.

Here's a statement nobody would have ever thought would be said:
The NBA leading Milwaukee Bucks are the first team to clinch a playoff spot after beating the Lakers in LA

This was his answer to walking off early

Mr, if you fall stay down and you brother will come pick you up: “They’re always going to find something to criticize.”




I dont think LA would care if he walked though. They'd be speculating on signing Kawhi and Jimmy within an hour like a fresh reboot.

Man as far as actual basketball goes, Giannis is a beast man. People call players video games all the time but the way dude just dribbles into you, backs you up and literally dunks over the top is some straight 2K CPU on HOF level.

There was a couple of nice dunks in the Lakers/Bucks game overall.

“They’re always going to find something to criticize.”

He’s right. And I would be sick of it too.

How many times does a player walk to the locker room without shaking hands and how many times is it a problem when it’s not LeBron lol.

And Giannis did the same thing in this same game, but which are we talking about... again

Its going to be a problem here because the game wasnt over

He's the main one talking all the crap

tried to get his teammates traded even if it was indirectly through a strong arm that backfired

He throws people under the bus but doesnt take accountability


It SHOULD be a problem. Dude's body language and hypocritical speeches are the worst.

LeBron is a first class front runner.

0 seconds or 3 seconds the game was over. And again, Giannis was walking into the tunnel with time on the clock as well.

Clearly leaving a 4 year finals team to join lottery level Cleveland, and leaving another 4 year finals team to join lottery level Los Angeles is the definition of being a front runner.

Re: 2/26 - 3/4 Games Discussion Thread

On the topic of the actual game though. It was good to see Bledsoe play well after getting his deal. I’m glad he’s had a bit of a turnaround season. The way last year ended for him wasn’t strong, and it looks like he made big efforts to get back to where he was. He was a big time difference maker for them last night in a game where Giannis was held at bay. That’s something they will need come playoff time.

Re: 2/26 - 3/4 Games Discussion Thread

Living here I don’t find many people who care about basketball but people I work with ask me about it all the time and a couple of them usually watch the weekend games and the only games that get shown are nationally televised games or NBATV games, which usually always means the Knicks, Lakers or Warriors. It’s never the Cavs. Ever.

It’s currently the Cavs and we’re down 71-38 at the half. I can’t wait for Monday.

He got half the team traded last year and tried again this year

It's his body language while demanding more from others regardless if he gives that.... And that's definitely about what's happening on the court

Anyway, his quote is just another in the book but him acting like criticisms are unjustified are head scratching is my point

I don’t think your final point there is particularly wrong OJ. I don’t think he’s a front runner because he doesn’t join the best team but this LA team is the first time he hasn’t had another All Star alongside him and it’s showing. In Miami he was joining D Wade and bringing Bosh. In Cleveland he had Kyrie who was already an All Star on a bad team in a badly run franchise and was bringing All Star Kevin Love with him. The team he joined in July 2014 and the one that started the season in October was very different.

Bruh you straight lying right here OJ, stop. Giannis wasn’t walking to no damn tunnel with time on the clock because he was still standing on the court shaking hands after the buzzer. It looked like he was expecting to shake up with Bron, but there’s video clear as day of the dude on the court with the rest of the players shaking up and acknowledging the other team.

Wasn't even worth mentioning because its on video lol

Anyway, they had better beat Phx tonight... both teams are on back to backs.

They have the Clippers on Monday who could spell the end of their playoff chase

Nah, I can't get with that OJ.

Look at Giannis, he is looking up court looking to shake LBJ's hand, notices he isn't around, and walks off towards the tunnel. Giannis made an attempt, LBJ headed for the tunnel with a Do Not Pass Go.
