well...remember winning??? Bron Bron ain't won poo yet!!!

and as far as Kobe and not shooting, that was to shut up the critiques who said he was a ball hog and one dimensional etc. People always forget that he's a world class defender as well.

You want to build a championship team, you start with Kobe!

I don't remember Kobe ever having 8 or 9 turnovers or how many LeBron had...in a must win game!

Well i was talking about Kobe winning a title post shaq.... That took away the bad memories from his post shaq days. Call it what you want, but he was being hammered in the media for that (oh I will just pass the ball) act or whatever... you don't try to prove something to the media in the playoffs.

My point is that if lebron wins titles, Just like Kobe this will be forgotten. Just like Kobe's negative history is distant memory... so can this be in his future.... I just don't buy all this legacy talk, and we will never forget this, or I will never respect him when the man has not even reached is peak yet. That's all I am saying. Trying to keep things in perspective here.

Yes him and his team executed horrible last night! They gave no effort in game 5.... Game 6 I felt they gave a lot of effort (Until the last minute) but were out executed. Myself, I have even said that last minute was one of the worst I have seen. I just watch that last minute back.... With 60 seconds left down by 9, Nobody boxed out, or hustled for that rebound... then they gave up... no fouling... continued to stand around... LOL mike Brown was yelling to do something and they did nothing.

This can all be forgotten in the future.... but he has to win.

If Nelson tries to play physical with Rondo he will get burnt. Nelson just isn't that type of player on offense or defense.

And Rondo outplayed Nelson in all 3 matchups in the regular season. I don't expect this series to be any different.

I'm not saying it will happen, I'm just saying that I think it will be the most reliable method of shutting down Rondo.

and one more thing...of course Kobe couldn't win without a strong #2....in case you have forgotten....basketball is a team sport!!! Can't win without a strong 5 and a strong bench these days. Again....LeBron has Shaq and they lost!

Uhh... yeah... Shaq isn't a strong #2. In fact, Cleveland has no #2 (this series proves that, I think).

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
