    no love, injured kyrie, roster full of players with little playoffs experience, and a rookie head coach and the cavs still might make the finals.

    if lebron can somehow pull off winning the finals this year this has to go down as one of the greatest postseasons of all time.

    I'm guessing you never listen to old stories about the way MJ talked to and treated his teammates.

    Your team needs to be able to score, and be well-rounded to beat a Lebron James led team (Spurs, prime Celts, Mavs, Pistons...)

    If somehow Golden State end up advancing, I want LeBron to destroy that team. My enemy's enemy is my friend.

    I've heard it and it would still piss me off. Just because he is one of the greats doesn't mean he can talk to men like they are his stepsons.

    so CLE is playing better without Kevin Love? Tristan can do his thing, and of course Lebron as a 4 just warps the opponents' defenses

    Just rest Kyrie the rest of the series, and prep for the Finals.

    Once again, coaching is proven to be irrelevant. Clueless head coach beats coach of the year in dominant fashion.

    The weak ass eastern conference is a joke. We are in the fight of our lives with Golden State every game and a 60 win team in the east can't even make a series against an injury-plagued Cavs team. Budenholzer should hand in his COY award.t

    60 wins

    3-1 vs. the cavs in the regular season

    22-8 vs the western conference in the regular season

    1-1 vs. the warriors in the regular season

    :confused:

    C'mon man, that's going waaaaay overboard. WAAAAAAY overboard, was coaching irrelevant last season? The Hawks just don't have that superstar player. The Cavs do.

    Also, Blatt is no clueless coach. People go way too hard on him.

    Blatt is a fighter pilot. Never forget.
