Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Playoff time = BronBron time

BronBron is too busy to care about the regular season. Except tonight.

I think Curtis Viking is going to be broken in half.

    Edit: I have to show some respect to the NBA, considering their multi billion dollar TV deal might be what puts the final nail in ESPN's coffin.

    Boston can go home now.

    Unseld and Hayes aren't suiting up for Washington.

    Apparently during one stretch last night the Cavs called the same play 11 possessions in a row. Boston will not be able to hide its defensive liabilities in the playoffs.

    As long as he has one healthy All-Star teammate in June, it's title #4.

    I like how Lebron didn't give a shit all the way to a beat down of another pretender.

    The Eastern Conference makes the Pac-12 look TUFF.

    Dude, he's LeBron, not MJ. He's not some Finals choker like some made him out to be but he's not some all time closer either.

    The field is a much, much smarter bet for this next ring.

    Klay's dad is on local radio so I get a lot of Warriors talk because the Lakers suck.

    It's deja vu all over again. Nobody can beat them.

    It's like they are defending champs but they aren't

    I know. He crushed that call.

    They were a much better team last year though.

    Cleveland is Jekyl and Hyde. The thing about good NBA teams is they can play themselves into peak form during the early rounds of the playoffs. A team's momentum right now means almost nothing.

    Agree with all that.

    Cleveland's problem is they suck out loud defensively. I don't think LeBron flipping the switch is enough to change that. I think it's a flawed roster that might be enough to skate through the east (where everyone has a flawed roster), but has no chance against GS or San Antonio, and would have a tuff time if Houston someone made it through (they won't).

    They're the 4th best team in the NBA, at best.

    Disagree about them being 4th best. I still think they are 2nd best. I agree it's tough to flip a switch, but the effort on D will ramp up in the playoffs.

    I do think GS beats them pretty soundly if they make the Finals. I think Cleveland could beat San Antonio or Houston though.

    Cleveland would bitchslap Houston, but still.

    Getting bitch-slapped by Tim Hardaway Jr when you're fighting to keep the 1 seed is always special.

    Can't defend the three. Houston would be a terrible matchup for them.

    I'm sorry, what winners does Houston have on its roster again?

    Not enough to get to the Finals. But enough to beat Cleveland.

    I'm actually excited to watch Houston. It will be hard for them to be consistent, but they are dangerous because they can get hot.

    Lou Williams and Eric Gordon are both guys that can put up 30+. Harden is incredible. Putting him at point was a great move.

    I think Toronto can beat Cleveland. They've got a lot of really nice role players. Lowry and Derozan make it tough to hide Kyrie, who only seems to even try on defense in the Finals. They've got some bodies to throw at Lebron. They can play big or small. And theyve paid their playoff dues.

    On the other hand I think Dwayne Casey is an awful coach, Derozan can't shoot and Cleveland will have the best two players in the series.

    It could come down to does A+ Lebron show up or just regular standard A Lebron. Toronto can beat A imho. Nobody beats A+.

    They are incredible when hot and absolutely brutal when clanking 30+ 3's.

    Portland is fucking stupid and deserves to lose every game by 50.

    BronBron doesn't need luck.
