lol so now having the best player on the team and 2 all stars with the best 3 point shooter and decent role players isn't enough. how many more stars does LBJ need? the heat is just simply getting outcoached and Pop is running circles around Spoe.
So you don't agree superstars should get a larger amount of praise? If you're going to continue to hate on Harden and LeBron then where is the praise when they exceed expectations? I've yet to see you cheer for Harden and LeBron. Whereas I've cheered for Lin plenty of times when he's played well. Hmmm. Even checking your post history I've seen you were defending LeBron up until I called you a LOF then you started ****ting on LeBron to justify your LOF biases lol.

The Heat have been the Miami Cavs for several weeks now. There was a guy somewhere earlier in this thread actually blaming Spo for playing LeBron too much in the playoffs. Some of the discussion about the Heat is totally nutso even when it isn't irrational LeBron hate.
Leonard definitely has to be the forefront because he has the added task of primarily defending LeBron. And LeBron isn't imposing his will on Leonard consistently. I'd honestly say Boris Diaw is number 2 and at worst number 3 for Finals MVP.
I'm sorry but I question anyone who isn't a fan of watching superb basketball, such as what the Spurs execute. I'm as die-hard of a Rockets fan as there is, but you can't ignore the consummate professionalism that they possess. Perhaps it's because I'm from Arkansas rather than Texas, but I just don't understand any hate towards the Spurs. They do things the right way and I respect the players and coach's attitude. The Mavs on the other hand...I despise them. Mark Cuban is a punk.
I know it's fun to make fun of Harden and he definitely has to mature but lol at those who say Wade is better.
This is an incredible fact. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Love this stat. RT <a href="https://twitter.com/JADubin5">@JADubin5</a>: The Spurs threw 380 passes tonight.

Lol. Another reddit stat has... list of people on the miami heat NOT outscored by patty mills: Lebron James/list
I can actually see the Spurs contending for a championship next year and the year after that. Unbelievable.
They don't need a marquee FA or a superstar if their system can turn Danny Green into Ray Allen, Patty Mills into Damian Lillard, and Boris Diaw into LeBron James.
