Fez Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The western conference playoffs have been disappointing because of injuries, but I wouldn't say the conference is overrated; the West still dominated the East in interconference games this season (76 games over .500).

Tyrion the Perfect Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 That's kind of my interpretation as well. And if that's true, I have to go back to our discussion a few threads ago and reiterate that this is the worst trade in the history of the NBA. Agreed. And I will be forever grateful to the Cavs for helping to take my Warriors off the hook on that one, This deal is proof positive that LeBron needs to stick to coaching. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Prince of Dorne Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I don't see Love leaving after one year. He'll likely sign a two year deal with an opt out. Cleveland should be a 65-win team next year if healthy. Love shouldn't pass that opportunity up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a good record but how did the Hawks and cavs fair in the western conference? Were they over 500? I try not to use regular season too much but how did the good teams fair with the good teams conference to conference.Cavs v warriors was one of my favorite games of the year.

Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 If the Western side of the bracket has been disappointing, then what would you call the Eastern side? Outside of Wizards/Hawks, there hasn't been a tightly contested series, and even that one didn't go 7. At least the West had 2 series go to a game 7.

Littlefingers In The Air Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The Wizards/Hawks series only failed to go 7 because of the untimely passing of Bradley Beal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calibandar Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Late to the show with this comment, I know, but just wanted to voice my admiration for Curry in game 3. Yes the Rockets played a very poor game and Harden looked very frustrated. And yes, Jason Terry looks 126 years old when compared to Stephen Curry. But Curry, he completely dominated. Fantastic passes, amazing shots. Sensational. Out of this world how good he was, a pleasure just to be allowed to watch it. It's going to be a great final vs LeBron at least, even if these Conference finals suck. Though surely Houston will not allow themelves to be swept tonight?

What has happened in the east is pretty much how it was drawn up.No? Sans the brainfarts and idiocy of the other conference. I am just saying there has been some poorly played and coached ball on the varsity team over there.Or wasn't it supposed to shake out that way? Probably a little more physical in the east but that's just my own $0.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Not super-relevant, but I think it's really cool that Shaun Livingston is getting to have this moment as a piece on a great team. He might have been unreal but for that horrible injury, so at least he's getting to do something. Nice to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, like when that coach tried to call a timeout when he didn't have one, then drew up a play that his superstar player shot down. http://s1336.photobucket.com/user/Lumpy67/media/David%20Blatt_zpsmafi24uf.jpg.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabronius Maximus Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 That looks like a typical game 4 after a team goes up 3-0. Logic usually goes out the window in those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhom Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 That looks like a typical game 4 after a team goes up 3-0. Logic usually goes out the window in those.Is the team down 3-0 generally on pace to score 160 180 after the first quarter? :stunned:Edit: As the quarter comes to a close... I had to adjust my scoring figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaime L Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Josh Smith decided he could shoot 3's again. I love how Josh Smith only makes an appearance when the Rockets season is on the verge of ending. Can imagine him putting on sunglasses and walking out to the floor. "It's Josh Smith time." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So close that they would've lost had the officials seen him call the timeout. You know, the one he didn't have. You wouldn't categorize that as a brainfart or anything, would you?

Rhom Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I just left the room and came back to what looks like Curry's demise as they went to commercial...Has Jack Bauer declared him out of the playoffs yet? What just happened???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
