both were at times the best perimeter defenders in the game but jordans peak D lasted much longer

maybe the latter half of mj's career is what sticks the most, yeah. but bron driving is very Bo Jackson Tecmo Bowl

that felt like two great teams in a war of wills. this feels like i don't know what the f---

yeah i think because the warriors are so dependent on 3 shooting, games are blowouts on either side - either they don't make them and the cavs just pull way ahead or they make them all and just pull way ahead of the cavs. hasn't really been a lot of really close, trading bucket games. i think if the warriors make all of their open shots in game 5 they win or are very close
― 龜, Friday, 17 June 2016 16:23 (ten years ago)
ya its crazy to be at 7 w no close games yet
― lag∞n, Friday, 17 June 2016 16:25 (ten years ago)
game four changed leads like 18 times til the end iirc

also the warriors aren't hitting their inside shots is a problem. livingston missing all his normal makes. barnes scared around the hoop. curry hasn't made a layup since his injury

hoist by their own petard as it were

if the dubs lose this that game 5 is gonna haunt them dray suspended bogut injured missing one million open shots

for sure

if the dubs chose this stretch to be their first three game losing streak since 2014 I will cry all night

the young version was the greatest driver of all time

He had to do it in the hand check/anything goes in the paint era too! There was an entire team philosophy dedicated strictly to knocking Jordan on his ass in ways that would have gotten them all ejected today
Usually don't subscribe to the 80s/90s rough n tumble dudes were better but in this case Lebron is an all time driver to the hoop but he sits right behind the goat

the dubs are in trouble rn and no mistake. the cavs have cracked their defense two games running and their own offense is sputtering from their many injuries. I have to give the cavs an edge unless the splash bros can get it going on sunday. not sure I'll be free to watch the game. :(
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Friday, 17 June 2016 16:44 (ten years ago)
i'd prob favor the cavs on a neutral court but the game's in oakland so the dubs have to be the favorites
― k3vin k., Friday, 17 June 2016 17:05 (ten years ago)
btw, fuck the officiating in this series. it's been completely unpredictable, which is just about the worst possible kind of reffing, aside from outright corruption.
― a little too mature to be cute (Aimless), Friday, 17 June 2016 17:10 (ten years ago)
its been bizarre thats for sure
― moistest hoist (Spottie), Friday, 17 June 2016 17:13 (ten years ago)
some real momentum altering calls last night
including the horrible calls on Love that got him out of the game early and helped the cavs out lol
man i hope iggy gets some of that r jeff juice over the weekend

sounds about right, if iggy wasn't looking hurt i'd think they were much heavier favs

If the cavs win on Sunday it will prove that LeBron James is better at heroball than Russell Westbrook.

ppl r fighting online abt whether bron wld be the mvp if cavs lose
― lag∞n, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:21 (ten years ago)
depends on how successful dray's 1st quarter nut punch on lebron will end up being
― nomar, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:28 (ten years ago)
the whole game will just be nut punches imo
― Clay, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:29 (ten years ago)
won't happen imo
that said there aren't any clear candidates from the dubs, who would it be? they've all been tainted or inconsistent
― marcos, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:31 (ten years ago)
(xp about lebron as mvp)
gotta give it to bronbron imho

prob but taking it to game 7 changes things

it would be justified but i have a hard time seeing the NBA going with Bron if Dubs win
― Nhex, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:45 (ten years ago)
iggy was a clear agreeable pick last year too which made it easier to not choose someone from the losing team, if dubs win this year there isn't anyone like that. klay maybe? idk
― marcos, Saturday, 18 June 2016 22:46 (ten years ago)
picking a dub would be ridiculous barring some serious game 7 heroics
