Why are you acting like the cavs are a massive upgrade from the heat. 4-0 Spurs :snooze:

when was the last team thats just can score but no defense win a title?.....I just don't get it:yeshrug:
I think the Bulls (if healthy) should be the favorite to go to the finals. They have been playing together for a long time and are tough defensively. With Rose and Pau in the line up we should see better offensive production from them.
I still like that Taj Gibson kid a lot. I wish Riley could lure him to MIami. :leostare: Very good role player. Kinda reminds me of Haslem in his younger days but taller and slightly slower

I think we'll find out those bunch of nobodies had some game. They were gritty, hard nosed, played defense, and could hit open shots.

You mean the 2007 team that started the likes of Larry Hughes, Sasha Pavlovic, and then Daniel Gibson? Are those the nobody with game that you want as building blocks with your star player?

Or are you talking about that gritty team with a 37 year old Shaq, Mo Williams, and Antwawn Jamison? Those defensive powerhouses?

uhhhh no on both? lol

Waiters is definitely gonna be improved as a defender and under Lebron's tutelage plus the fact he has less offensive responsibility then you'll see him grow plus he's young as hell.

Varejo has great energy, hustle, is a good help defender as is Tristan so they'll probably be around average but they're gonna limit 2nd chance points and gobble up boards.

Average defense plus unstoppable good offense = they'll be fine

I'm not :yeshrug: I personally think irving can't fukk wit rose,Jimmy can contain lebron and love will eventually become a spot up shooting pf who won't get the rock like he use to and won't be as effective

Bulls bench and defense + thibs coaching>>>>>>the cavs bench and david blatt.If they remain healthy I got bulls in 6 but I do think the bulls need to acquire a sg/sf who can somewhat create his own shot by the trade deadline or next summer

I made a thread about Jimmy Butler not too long ago. He will hold LeBron to 30/8/7 on 52% shooting. I'll give u that

Eventually y'all gonna have to admit that there are teams that'll never win the chip, or even reach the finals for that matter. :yeshrug:
