Now that things have started to shake out, I want to get some banter and speculation in here.

Topics to start with:

-Knicks won a game to force the series to 5 games with the Heat.
-Boston blew out the Hawks and now lead the series 3-1
-Rose-less Bulls hanging on at 1 game to the 76'ers 3
-Lakers in the same spot as always
-Thunder sweeping the Mavs
-And others...

I'll start. Its bittersweet, but mostly sweet as a Boston fan right now. You get the sense that each game might be the last you see the big 4 together. Its a beautiful thing that they are putting together another run for us.

In honor

Difference between a real fan base and all those fake fucks down in Miami that leave the game as soon as their team is down by 2

You're delusional if you think that's happening this year. The refereeing was bad, but for both sides, and yes, LeBron had a damn good game.

haha yeah that was kinda weird he popped the three. But sure enough, next time he had the ball, wide fucking open and didn't take the shot, instead forced a pass to garnett

i'm surprised he didn't cry to the reffs about an and-1 on that dunk. I can't stand watching a grown man cry the whole fucking game

can't stand watching rondo right now. he's wide open and decides to not take the shot and dribble 5 feet closer to get blocked. so fucking stupid. they're down by 12 and rondo's the only one open. just take the shot and hope he makes it, don't give it to Ray Allen who doesn't even have a shot

Haha all the butt hurt Celtics fan jumping on the OKC bandwagon it seems? Funny how you guys honestly believe Durant and Westbrook > LBJ + Wade. You realize who you're comparing them to right? The MVP who played amazing all series, and Wade who needs no introduction...

Haha i've been on the OKC bandwagon since last year bud. But let's be honest, Durant>James in the playoffs. That's a fact.

Haha are u kidding me right now? Please enlighten me how Durant>LBJ in the playoffs. Def not stat wise, just looked those up. You could before bring up the clutch factor, but after this series I think its safe to say LBJ has proven himself.

Lebron James has proven that he is still a bitch on the court, that's all he has proved. Kevin Durant has proved that he is clutch, but can also spread the ball around and distribute points. Lebron is a ball hog. Thunder in 5.
