Werent they capped out either way? LeBron's real mistake was overestimating Love stat padding on a cellar dweller.
Yeah they were already capped out. The alternative to overpaying was let them leave as free agents and get nothing in return while still being over the cap. I think the whole Coli overestimated love. I can’t believe swagnificent was actually right about his assessment of a player in this case :scust:

Let's keep it 100...The only starter on this team besides Lebron is K.Love...and he's played like crap
He hardly looks like he belongs in the league this series. He was averaging 11.8 points on 32.8% shooting this series before tonight and managed to make those averages worse.

Kevin Love this series:
Game 1: 9 points on 3-8 shooting, 17 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 1 block, 2 turnovers, 3 fouls

Game 2: 15 points on 5-16 shooting, 8 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 3 turnovers, 1 foul

Game 3: 19 points on 7-13 shooting, 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 0 blocks, 4 turnovers, 4 fouls

Game 4: 5 points on 2-10 shooting, 11 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals, 1 block, 2 turnovers, 3 fouls

Game 5: 11 points on 2-11 shooting, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 2 turnovers, 2 fouls

Game 6: 7 points on 3-10 shooting, 7 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 2 turnovers, 1 foul

The coli told me the 08-2010 Laker team with Gasol as the 2nd best player and glass knee rookie (Bynum) was a championship caliber team and I also just witnessed a rookie led team advance to the 2nd round against a "superteam" and a Kyrie and Gordon less Celtics are battling it out in the east against the greek freak led team.

If Lebron is as good as advertised then he should be able to lead his team past a team led by an OKC "reject".So spare me the crap

Player for player, this cavs team are not weaker than their competition in the east. I refuse to believe that talent wise, The roster of Lebron, Love, Korver, JR, Green,Rodney, clarkson, tristan is worse than their competitions in the east. I don't give a fukk about why they are under performing as that's besides the point.

No one made excuses for Durant that year in the playoffs when Westbrook was out to injury and failed to take a weakened OKC past memphis. he was branded "mr unreliable".

Lebron when facing elimination since 2012


35.1 PPG - 11.9 RPG - 7.3 APG - 1.8 SPG - 1.3 BPG - 59.7% TS


Expect a legendary performance


Tonight should have been the Legendary performance. Instead he taking bows to the face and getting dunked on by SG's.

Well you couldn’t tell Cavs/Bron stans this after the Boston series, they thought they were a Finals Lock. He did pick this squad as well and traded the vets. Guarantee a CLE team with Bron/Rose/Crowder/Wade wouldn’t be facing a Game 7 vs IND.
Well....the defense is alot better than it was before the trade so...

LeBron's 33 and after the emotional Cavs game I knew he wouldn't have that same energy. His bunk teammates feed off that. For reference at 23 you were getting picked last in your local ymcs pick up games.

The biggest problem is the Cavs have no real system to rely on. We usually only run plays to get open shots for Korver.

Everything else is just watching LeBron dribble, get open in the corner, or occasionally cut to the hoop. No constant motion and not many designed plays from what I can tell.

For a few possessions in game 5 the cavs were whipping the ball to the open man, cutting, setting screens, all that good shyt. They got easy buckets, and then it just stopped for no reason. We needed a buzzer beater to win.

It’s easy to blame Lue, and he deserves plenty of blame because he clearly hasn’t implemented a system, but I feel like LeBron prefers it this way sometimes.

I think we will win game 7 but holy shyt it’s looking rough after that. You never know what can happen though.

We’ll always have 2016 :manny:

Substitute Bron and Lue with Russ and Billy D for your post and you couldn't tell the difference
