LeBron is overcompensating for the 4th quarter criticism. Now we have to criticize him for not playing as good in the first 3 quarters as he did in the 4th quarter. Why you shrinking in the first 3 quarters, LeBron?

LOL haters gonna hate.
I don't really hate him, I just think how he left the Cavs was horrible and reflects his character.

They matched up better with the Bulls as in "Rose is hurt, so we'll only lose by 10 instead of 20".

Miami and Chicago both would have swept the Knicks by double digits comfortably. While Chicago's offense might have stalled the Knicks would be getting no rebounds and shooting like 30% in that series.

It must really kill you inside that fans wish their favorite team to do well.


No wai, man. You just say you're a fan of the best team or whoever just won the championship and talk shit to everyone else.

Just wondering. Thunder know that Durant is hot, right?

And Mark Davis making himself known to be a terrible, trigger-happy ref.

hope this game comes close, this matchup is nice, it was my favourite from last years playoffs as well, since rondo went down with the elbow injury.


okc and dallas just matchup in such a weird way, its always a gun battle.

I can't tell if the Thunder are dominating the Mavericks because they're that good or because the Mavericks are playing that poorly.

They just can't seem to hit a shot. Even if they're wide open.

Mavs beating he Mavs tonight cmon guys at least bring it close for a minute so you can get some playoff hype in your building.

This Carter to Marion lane hookup is not meshing well...

If Derick Fisher getting to the paint against your second best defender, you`re gonna have a bad time.

This is going to be a pretty limp title defence when all is said and done.

You know I'm starting to think that it's in the Lakers' best interest to NOT sweep the Nuggets. That way they'll have Artest for when they eventually have to face off with OKC.

If they sweep Denver they'll be missing their best defender on Durant for the first two games in OKC.

I dunno.

I agree. What if they sat their big 3 for two games, effectively throwing those away? What kind of backlash would that draw?

It sounds nice in theory, but it isn't going to happen. The Lakers aren't good enough to pick and choose which games they want to win.

Yeah, no way you take any win for granted in the playoffs. People expecting the Nuggets to be swept aren't giving them enough credit either. As much as people have been talking about DEN being dead in the water, I'm still worried about what happens if they hit their stride.

OKC tapping the Mavs, nice. Both Heat and Thunder looking strong to sweep.

OKC is a very tough matchup for the Lakers period. I don't know how much having MWP will help.

It'll be tough for the Lakers... OKC has a lot of matchup advantages in that series that would be tough for the Lakers to overcome.

Lakers have only beat OKC once in four attempts this year--in double OT and only after Artest KO'd Harden--and the three OKC won weren't what you'd call close games.

Maybe it's in our best interest that they sweep the Nuggets. That way we won't have to see any more dumb Twitter posts from Artest after the OKC fans go after him all game.
