Thoughts on the game:
1. Varejao needs to stop bitching. Have you ever seen him not bitch when he gets called for a foul? Cause I haven't.
2. The Cavaliers have no heart.
3. LeBron needed to be a lot more aggressive. And how did he get all those rebounds? Felt like he was just randomly picking up rebounds during the game.
4. Perkins raging as usual.
5. Jamison sucks. His 3-pointer isn't even that good and he takes too many of them.
6. Garnett and Pierce proves they're still somewhat competent.
I guess you missed Lebron soaring in for like 3 or 4 rebounds from missed free throws by the celtics. I agree about perkins raging. He always looks pissed no matter what is happening.

stoudemire is playing for a max level contract if he can win finals MVP, or if they give it to nash because its a guards game he will still be worth 23 through 6 ~
and eddie house is still trash, ill take a b team defender who can play like rondo over a spot up shooter who has no defense, and can onlyyy shoooooooot atttttttt hommmmmmmmmmme. This celtic team doesnt care what court they play on, and no eddie house did not play a huge role in their ring, was he on their roster? yes, was he on their roster last year and made some nice shots (at home) in the playoffs? yes, but he still isnt that great of a player. zzz
not that im a fan of robinson, like i said him as a bench role for practice is better than eddie house for his at home three and TERRIBLE defense.

What does this even mean? Who can play like rondo? rofl
they used house when they needed to score, wtf are you on about. He hit 3s in many key moments, he did help celts to win that year. Robinson will be polishing that bench until regular season starts, compared to eddie he's useless

its inexcusable how the cavs played in the final 2-3 minutes of that game
i know its very unlikely they could have come back, but they really just gave up. in an elimination game. when they were the title favorites. and when there's much at stake with lebron leaving.
seriously? this is how he goes out? i would be seriously hurt and sad if i was a cavs fan, it's like they just wanted to get out of there. lebron's demeanor after the game seemed like he didn't even care like he was already mentally checked out. show some pain or disappointment at least, geez.

lebron tried and he tried hard, he just couldn't do it. When he hit those 3s you could see how he started trying to hype himself up when celts took a timeout. In the end he just didn't believe anymore. It felt like lebron completely burned out at the end of the series, he was unable to perform even if he wanted to

it means that in practice he can play like rondo, giving efficient practice, its not complicated, eddie house sits in corners shooting threes, and jumping whenever someone pump fakes, he is a huge matchup problem for a celtic team that is looking for a flawless team. Look at all their players and they are either fantastic on defense, and shakey on offense, or the opposite, and the 4 superstars have it all.
What does eddie house bring to their team that they need? what did he bring in 2008? (nothing, they used cassell on the post much more often) Like i said he hit some shots last year (at home) but is a cancerous player, it was a gamble on robinson, and imo it was a good one cause eddie house sucks, and no play time for both guards is better than a little. Let Marquise daniels eat those minutes, he is a better on the ball and help defender anyways.

Yep , absolutely pathetic. LeBron literally just avoided the ball in the last 1.5 minutes of the game, it was awesome! LOVED IT RAR

He had best 3s % on a team in 08/09 season, >44%, exactly what they needed him for

i bet those numbers are like 100/100 at home 0/105 on the road, anyways they needed him to develop as a better on the ball defender, which he never did, they brought in a better one (better help defender too) i think thats better than someone who can shoot threes at practice.

Whats your guys' conference finals predictions?
I think 4-0 OR 4-1 in favor of Lakers.

I think both Conf Finals are going to at least Game 6. With Cleveland out I think everyone's confidence just ramped up another notch.

Hoping Suns or Magics win it all.

Boston's comeback included a 21-3 run over the final five minutes, fueled by two 3-pointers from Eddie House, who was getting more playing time because of Rajon Rondo's tender left ankle. The Celtics were still down by double digits with 2 minutes left in the third but closed the quarter with a 10-1 run, capped by P.J. Brown's dunk -- a slam that could be felt all the way back to Boston's North End.
The Celtics finally caught the Lakers at 73-all on Leon Powe's jumper in the lane with 9:05 remaining, tying the score for the first time since it was 2-2 in the first minute.
At that point, the Lakers looked lost, confused, you name it. And when House hit an 18-foot jumper with 4:07 remaining, the Celtics had their first lead, 84-83. Boston's bench erupted, Lakers fans gasped and it was just a matter of time before they were heading out of Staples Center wondering what went wrong.
This was their come from behind win over the Lakers in Los Angeles, game 4. House was important in this series because they put technically put Kobe on Rondo, only Kobe would play off him and roam on defense. True Celtics fans remember what House did for us. And PJ Brown was the unsung MVP of the Lakers series.

His 3 nice rebounds do not make up for the ridiculous number of turnovers. On top of that he looked pissed as hell for half of them; it's not Parker's fault that he threw the ball 6 feet above the guys head.
Also, the commentating during the game definitely didn't emphasize the fact that Jamison was sucking it up unusually often. Granted Celtics defense is amazing, but LeBron was definitely absorbing some of the suck-factor for the rest of the Cavs.

I think the Lakers are going to demolish Phoenix to be honest.

Woah, wtf happened to cleveland? Terrible game 5 and 6. James v bryant is turning out to be a jaedong v bisu. You never have both in a final.
