2014 NBA Finals

[8]

Take LBJ out of Miami and they are first round fodder. Take any player out of the Spurs and they are still WC finalists. That's the difference.

Pretty sure Spurs would not win the west without Tony Parker. Perhaps Manu and Duncan as well, but definitely not without Parker.

But they are a deeper and more balanced team, yes.

I wonder about that too. Lebron was measured at 6'9" 267 before the 2012 Olympics. Never has a player so big been asked to do so much. Perhaps it's just too much sometimes, especially in 90 degree heat.

bron's playing weight right now definitely under 260lb. if i have to guess it's probably around 255lb. his 1st year as a heat, he probably played at 260lb. he got too big. it was noticeable.

Had no problems winning elimination game vs Thunder though....And I said finalists meaning they would play in WC finals, not obviously winning it.

I was thinking 256. But to each his own.

Not really? This is the east we are talking about. Who is going to dominate Ray Allen, Chris Bosh and Wade to make them first round fodder? Charlotte? Indy? Atlanta? Chicago? This is the East not the West.

Also go Spurs...

No one has brought this up...

Duncan 9-10 FG

that's impressive against the Bucks let alone in the finals against the Heat.

That's got to be a record for the finals. I've never heard of someone playing big mins and batting .900

I don't think even Shaq did that in a finals game and all of his shots came within 5 FT of the rim.

Indiana, Chicago ( with Rose), Toronto, Brooklyn, Washington would dismantle Heat without LBJ in 5-6 games. Charlotte and Atlanta would be close series.

almost always players drink gatorade in the sideline doe

Think about the taste of sweat. That is what you are losing from your body when you sweat. Gatorade does not replace the large amount of salt you excrete when you sweat. You should always pair gatorade with something really salty.

Yeah Duncan hit a record with that stat. He's one of 3 players in NBA finals history to score 20 and 10 on 90% shooting, the other two being Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell.

So you think. That's pure opinion.

Also Wade wore "Stockton to Malone" socks to the arena yesterday lol. Nice Wade!

Well no one knows and will know so I don't really care. Why do you overlook the seven game 1st round series doe?
