@jaguar paw it's similar to how SOME of the Cavs fans, and I stress some, were confident about the Cavs chances, before and immediately after they went up 2-1 in the Finals. Yes they were confident about winning, yet that doesn't mean they were oblivious to the team's weaknesses and the possibility of the Warriors coming back.

Cleveland born & raised
The cavs role players stepped up big time and that series. Blatt was constantly out coaching thibs.

Its funny looking back since I remember me and my family being worried cause love got hurt. We honestly thought bulls had the series

Tired??? Are we talking about tired? Stop it when lebron had to score
Rebound he was the top rebounder
Assist he was the offense and ran it
Had to defend butler
And keep blatt from fukking up lol
Why are you comparing one of the greats and possibly the best athlete to Jimmy Butler? What I said is true, Thibs tired Butler out. When you have to guard Lebron and score 20 while playing 40+ mins, you get tired. Go re-watch the series

There's a difference between saying "we have a chance" and "we should win"

I have heard on here that lebron just athletic and that's it while I see flaws in some of his game no one is perfect but damn he gets talked about like he a role player ..... I noticed some don't realize that he has a load to carry almost no one in history ever had to carry and it's not just scoring ..... But why can butler who said he wants more mins can get tired but lebron can't? Butler did not have to do for his team what lebron had to do not even half of his work load I just find it funny it's not easy to be be all end all for your team ....that shyt has to be hell on your body

Besides the fact I put "similar" in bold - the SAME principles apply. I've already stated the Bulls fans had reason to think their team should win with the situation the Cavs were in (Kyrie hobbled and Love out) - I'm simply explaining to you reasons as to why the lost. Reasons that the Bulls fans were aware of before, during and after the series.

Are you telling me those reasons/issues I stated - the Bulls fans weren't aware of before the series started?

I'm done I don't even know why I quoted you. You made your position clear. I just wanted it to be known they didn't feel like those things we're serious enough to make it likely they'd lose.:yeshrug:

Did you feel as if the Bulls issues/flaws (whatever you think they may be - be it the coach, players or both) weren't serious enough that they could cost them the Cavs series and a shot at a title?

Nope, those flaws were glowing all throughout the regular season: defense being suspect, defensive rebounding problems(Which the Cavs would exploit with Love & Thompson), stagnant offense, Jo being mediocre, Thibs not making proper adjustments. We just didn't look like a championship team, or one that could beat Lebron nonetheless. We were all hoping the Bulls would all of a sudden switch gears and that didn't happen at all.

We knew we had a wildly inconsistent team. Dropped games to non playoff teams all season. Guys like Jimmy & Pau were calling out the teams lack of preparation and focus all season. Noah ass, all season. Rose inconsistent all season. Younger guys never truly found their footing here.

I thought we would beat Cleveland off pure talent, but then Pau went down, Cleveland's role players balled out and ours shrunk. Thibs trusted his system too much to adjust properly and quickly enough, and there's your series in a nutshell.

Other than the bullshyt Rose went through a week ago, I haven't been to realgm or other bulls sites all summer.

Been straight :pacspit: status for those nikkas for that awful performance.

I'll wait til they give a damn to care.
