Pants DJ sounds like one of those shitty ideas that gets a million dollars on Shark Tank.

I understand what you are saying, and the point about lack of urgency does seem to ring true for the Warriors (understandable after, 3 straight Finals runs). But on the whole, your theory doesn’t quite work. If Lebron could snap his fingers to win, he would have swept Boston and relaxed for a week while Golden State…

Considering Paul was out for the last two games AND Houston shot horribly in epic fashion in the second half, the Warriors only managed to win by a handful of points?

If they think this is no fun, wait til they have to play 82 games next year without lebron, and with whatever knicks players they can trade love for.

That’s not terrible advice.

So, there’s no way Lebron stays in Cleveland, right? And there’s no way he leaves the East to go to the West, right?

I really don’t get why every discussion has to be about how the other team stunk it up, and not about how well Boston is playing and how well they are coached. And I hate saying that as someone who despises Boston/basically any team that isn’t my own.

I guess the bigger story is that they made some really shitty transactions in the summer (Isaiah, Wade, Rose) and then had to make some semi-shitty midseason trades to get out of them.

I’m a big fan of the second clip, where the other 4 cavs just abandon Korver in the low post, where he is clearly and undeniably overmatched, and then just stand around to rubberneck at the ensuing carnage.

J.R. Smith committed a “we’re down 3-0 and I’d like to get my vacation started” flagrant in a close Game 2. That was a deeply bogus play. Just throw this joyless Cavs team in the trash.

If you remove the word “Russian” from this letter, I feel like it could help a lot of men I’ve met in my life.

I love that first clip in the OP where JR stumbles around trying to get by Baynes while Rozier has enough time to take a nap before launching an uncontested 3, and then JR throws up his hands in outrage at the ref for some reason. You could, I don’t know, try going over the screen or something, instead of staying…

I’m not sure I believe that. They won the series but had the worst point differential of any series winner since 1984 (-40 points), and basically the only thing that carried them across the threshold was LeBron’s individual brilliance. From a 538 piece after the series ended:

Indeed. Watch Hill or Korver try to play on-the-ball defense against Rozier, Brown or Smart. Just token pressure until the blow-by. Then, the rest of this clown menagerie is too lazy to rotate and help. It’s agonizing.

My favorite highlight was when Tristin Thompson tried to out-rebound Kyle Korver - with no one else around them - and Korver just threw his arms up like, “C’mon, man...”. 

It happened because without LeBron, the Cavs would be a lottery team.

There’s a ton of anti-Philly sentiment in the comments today. As someone who thought “the process” was an ugly, cynical approach to building a basketball team and not pulled off as well as it could’ve been (too many mis-drafts), I sort of get it. But I guess I’m mildly surprised by how excited so many people are to…

He’s still the second worst Simmons when dealing with the Celtics.
