The Celtics maybe, MAYBE, get two against us.

 

I...don't agree.

Yeah, he was probably being a little conservative there.

 

Congrats on the finals berth, though.

Everyone shut up talking like the series is over.

Would you rather play the Thunder or Spurs?

 

I said shut up

 

it's going to get better. lebron, in his final act of the year, will set fire to the entire ghetto in one night.

False. He only sets fire to 3/4 of it, disappearing into the night before he can finish the last quarter.

It is impressive that the Celtics are doing so well against the Heat - Bosh or no Bosh - but they've had a very fortunate setup to the playoffs. Mediocre Atlanta team trying to work Horford back into the rotation with months off, mediocre Philly team that is only there because Rose died, and then a Heat team without Bosh. As far as getting to the Finals, it was either going to be Boston, Atlanta, Philly or a Rose and Noah-less Bulls team. Surviving from that group of teams is not exactly something to brag about.

 

I will say that I am stunned they won game 5 and that opened my eyes a bit. And I know they are dealing with quite a few injuries too. But since we'll never know for sure and because I'm a bitter, depressed Bulls fan, I'm putting my homer cap on and saying the Bulls would have won in 5, maybe 6.

 

I love you SSR

I bet the heat win this series.

 

It sure is a surprise that you'd pick the Heat. Stunner really.

 

Im not a Heat fan and I like this Boston team as well.

 

I just think that LBJ and Wade will get the whistle in game 6 and then win game 7 at home. If Bosh recovers more and plays more of the game, his ability to hit from 16-18 feet will keep Garnet from playing rim protectpor. At least make his old body move more on D so that he cant abuse the Heat all game like he has been. So I think if the Heat win game 6 and then win an HCA game 7.

 

Spo is a joke.

 

I agree with all of this except for the Bosh part. I think his pt remains limited.

 

Also the part about him not being a Heat fan.

I know most of you don't know, because I haven't talked about it here. But my brother died a month ago. We were very close, had gone to a bunch of Thunder games together and he was a big fan. This means a lot to me (harden's flops not withstanding.)

spurs look gassed. hopefully okc closes this one out, because i think they have a better chance of beating the heat now.

 

Heat what who? Ever heard of Boston? That team leading the series, having just won game 5?

I'm sorry to hear that. I'll bet it will be pretty awesome seeing the Thunder in the finals knowing it would have been amazing for him too.

That really sucks man. Glad you have something like this to cheer you up a little bit.

This is the first time since Utah in 1998 that a team other than the Spurs, Lakers or Mavericks have represented the West in the Finals. Interestingly enough, the Thunder eliminated each of these three teams this year.

I was definitely rooting for the Thunder to win with the Bulls out, and moreso now. Very sorry to hear about your loss, imb.

You think we would have swept you? Since you know that you can't rebound at all and we would have crushed you on the boards?

Ok, I'm as rabid a Bulls fan as any, but doesn't it seem to be a poor time to talk trash to the fans of a team that is one game away from the Finals against the presumed best team in the conference?

appreciate it. He died the day of Game 1 against the Mavs. I've just been assuming all the Dirk/Kobe/Manu/Parker flops were actually him invisibly tripping them.

That's horrible, I'm really sorry.

 

Was already rooting for the Thunder (Westbrook!) but I agree with Banedon, I'll be rooting even more.

If I can't troll SSR, then I don't want to do the Internet.
