Around the NBA - Conference Finals

I think also it’s the evolution of the game as many nba teams are taking more threes. Bigs have to be versatile now and be able to hit threes.

 

True but he will still have the best path. The west will stay better than the east by a long shot. All Cavs have to compete with next season is the Celtics and Toronto again. I feel like the Celtics are taking over next season though in the east at least with Kyrie and Hayward back

 

Nope, I wouldn't be complaining, because it'd be fresh instead of something I've seen for 4 STRAIGHT YEARS...

 

No, it hasn't been. This is the first time in the history of Pro American Sports that the same two teams have faced each other in 4 straight championship matchups.

I've watched until now, like I always have, but not quite as much. I don't watch the Finals, except for (maybe) the end of any very close games.

 

I read that...not sure it's true of world sports though...Davis Cup tennis...World Cup...America's Cup..Rugby...other sports not so popular here....I know Manchester United and Arsenal have been arch rivals forever...there have been some dominant players in golf and many individual sports. Somebody around here would probably know.

 

Individual sports don't really apply. It's never a 1v1 in golf... in Tennis, they have 4 majors a year.. but it's also a different setup.

 

all sports apply if you want them to...that's a choice...squash...ping pong..I mentioned that...there have been dominant matchups throughout history...tennis has teams too...Davis Cup....beach volleyball....I point out that there's more out there than basketball baseball hockey and football

 

I didn't watch any except in passing when it was on at the gym

 

Hahahahaha...squash. I luv ya but come on

 

No, not all sports reply to my statement...

Individual sports don't apply to the fact that "In Pro American Sports, two TEAMS have never faced each other in a championship matchup until now". And I was talking about the 4 major pro sports, but didn't think someone would bring up ping pong or squash to take away from my point, which is that the NBA is much more repetitive and lacks much more parody than other leagues of it's kind.

 

Lmao..

I swear Riverman prepares himself for conversation with me by getting high as a kite...

 

dude....I know what you were talking about.....you basically just don't want to include my 2 cents in the conversation....whew....ok then.

 

fuck that....I swear you are just frustrated because you can't like your own posts

 

Philadelphia and Indiana are also very good.

 

yeah....great sport...Pakistan and Sweden have battled for the world championship many times...if you read my posts before...you'd know I said I read the article BJ was talking about and brought up the topic of world sports....that didn't get any response..no big deal...Roller Derby is a fucking American team sport too

 

So your only real beef is with Rozier and Ariza shooting 0/19 from 3. Not the NBA's fault.

 

What do you know about the NBA or the Finals themselves if you only ever watch a quarter here and there? Explains how little you know about the state of basketball in this country.

 

I suppose Lakers/Celtics rivalry in the 80s was bad for the league. Of course, BonesJones wasn't around then. He doesn't remember basketball before Kobe.
