But it also goes for the Warriors too. They avoided a good team or 2 and a player or 2 due to injury and them staying away avoiding injuries.

Well...they avoided the Clippers due to the Clippers incompetence.
Cavs avoided everyone being on the East.

LeBron has an opt-out after 1 year with the Cavs, right?

Anyone think he'll bail on Cleveland again?

No way Jose. Lebron is stuck there. Career suicide and he's 30.

David Lee and Warriors working on a trade to get him out.

I wonder what happens if CP3 misses that layup. I think Spurs would be at the podium.

i dunno. Think the Warriors were more than capable of taking them out too.


Yeah, Lebron is stuck there. His legacy is more important than anything. Plus he wants his son to go to his HS in Akron- ST Vincent Mary.

Cavs are going to pay. Lebron may opt out and re-sign at the higher cap number, Love may opt out which could make them lose out on the Wiggins trade, Tristan is a restricted free agent but I can't see him be a max player though Lebron and his agent (same agent) want it. I think Dellavadova is a RFA also. JR Smith has a player option. Already the Vegas favorite.

Spurs "big" lineup with Duncan at PF easily better than Bogut in there. If they figured out to go small than yeah Warriors advantage plus I think Warriors are deeper. Would've been another great series. Better than Houston

I feel that Dildoadova is overrated. Something about him makes me feel like he's a Jeremy Lin except he's dirty.

I would agree with that. SA wouldve been a better matchup for the Warriors than the Rockets. I think that the Rockets messed up badly with Parsons going to the Mavs.

Never really heard of Dellavadova until the Finals and I was at first rooting for him when all the controversies about how he is a dirty player came out.

After a few more games, i did notice that he is "different" whether he is doing that intentionally or not.

There is nothing wrong with diving for the ball, as they should. But the way he dives in has developed a pattern.

He would dive in, roll and turn his back towards the other player's leg while sliding. maybe once or twice in different situation is ok but he does that almost every time.

That is how you get other players injured. If i were to play against him, i would jump up when he does that dive and roll thing and land on him to avoid injury to my leg.

^^Agreed.

Delly is a dirty player. I get it when people try to be physical but that's some bullshit he's trying to pull there.

I don't blame Horford people's elbow him in hawks series. Good that Draymond Green didn't lose his mind when it looked like the dildo was trying to take him out.

Dildoadova Yeah he has that tendency to dive at what looks like intentionally at knees. I love hard working "blue collar" players but his was over the top. Good for him to have those nice offensive games early in the series but he dropped off back to earth rather quickly.

In strange news, Hawks buy out Ferry and Budenholzer gets promoted to coach/Prez. So DUI gets you promoted and racial comments fired.

Good read how Lebron totally emasculated Blatt during the Finals as witnessed by ESPN sideline reporter Marc Stein:

You guys catch the new Clippers logo? LA has some decent design talent here, or at least people with eyes. That logo looks like shit....like it was created by a 5th grader's entry in a Clippers logo design contest, using MS paint.

I caught a lil bit of sportsnation and Too short was the guest. They had a segment called verse segment using a type of song to describe the topic on hand. When the logo was shown, Too short's response was hilarious. It was i don't fu*k with you.
