Forgot the Cleveland guards when Lebron was there?

Forgot the Cleveland guards when Lebron was there?
Say Chi Sin Lo
G.O.A.T.
Eric Snow? He was a good floor general and facilitator. He knew he wasn't a flatout scorer, but a point guard. So he did point guard things which was beneficial to all the teams he was on.
Mario Chalmers takes bad shots, makes bad (often times soft) passes, and is a defensive liability. A lot of times, he tries to stat up his numbers even though he's not a scorer. Basically, I think he tries to do Russell Westbrook things but with half the talent and athletic abilities.
Not to mention he once said something ridiculous, claiming he's a top point guard in the league.

Mind-boggling luck for the Cavs but they'll mess this one up too!
With #4 and #12, the Magic look strong but do they package those two and move up???

Bundle a Jameer Nelson in there and they've got a case for a good trade and start winning now.

Nelson nets very little; Afflalo is the piece GMs will want. If they can get Wiggins, I say do it!

Dan Gilbert must have some pics of Stern or Silver for Cleveland to get #1 over and over again. The lottery has to be changed somehow, either limit it to the bottom 5 teams or just do away with it altogether.
Indiana blew their chance to put Miami in dire straits IMO. I can see Miami winning it in 5 now.
Orlando is in a good spot, this is a much deeper draft than last year and plenty of value will be there at 4 & 12. Exum at 4 and Randle at 12 wouldn't be that bad at all for the Magic.

Haha, I like it. I think I said it a few pages back that if it was up to me, Chicago/Memphis/San Antonio will play on national broadcasts every night.
I'm ok with defensive stops left and right, and people getting bulldozed over left and right. "Boring" basketball is very precise. But that's not to say I don't enjoy the hero-ball of Oklahoma Thunder/Golden State Warriors/LA Clippers either.

The Pacers can only restrain the Heat so much...Heat is revving up, Whatcha gonna do 'bout it?
Keep giving the number 1 pick, sooner they'll be owing the worse record for getting the most number 1s (save LBJ). Who knows, LBJ might just decide to collect some rings and give back!
Sure, LAkers and NY's Phil Jax will be jockeying for his services...will see, this could be very interesting one, probably much more so than the ''taking our talents to South Beach''.

He's already said he's gone after '14/'15 and his short wish list is rumored to be Chicago and GS. SoCal boy going NorCal? Steve Kerr would love that!

In that case, he'll be just fine anywhere in CA. But I hope he makes it to the Big Apple.

Wow, apparently she gained like 13.7 thousand twitter followers yesterday because of the draft and she is now a minor celebrity. What a world we live in. she looks old for 18. She looks older than all the freshman I see at my uni.

What's going on with the NBA Playoffs schedule?
Game 3 isn't until Saturday. That's 4 days after Game 2. I understand "travel days" but it doesn't make any sense. In some of the earlier series, "travel days" were nonexistent.

And they could have lost the first game, I would still have said the same. I don't think Pacers have got this because they won game 1. They've got this because Pacers got dis.

Spurs are exploiting (one of) the Thunder's weakness, they take bad shots!

I think when LeBron James' career is finished, he will think about getting neck surgery based on the amount of flopping and head-rocking he does.

I remembered seeing a video of him hurting his neck just months prior to going pro. Unbelievably, it doesn't seem to bother him all that much. Perhaps he's wired differently.

I believe he was just 17 when he hurt his neck and the next game he played as if nothing happened. A decade later, he is still as good as gold. Maybe will see when he is 31.

Way to go Porkins. Go get your 3 fouls in the 1st quarter.

Good job Russell Westbrook, getting butthurt after Ginobili stole your ball and picked up a technical.

Well Ibaka had his Willis Reed moment tonight. This was a must win for OKC and they did it. SA needs to regroup now or risk losing control of the series and having game 5 turn into a must win for them.

I don't expect Serge Ibaka to repeat his performance in Game 4. He was noticeably hurt with a good limp/hobble at the end. And he's not coming back after week(s) off, he's coming back after one day.

Here's a thought, since they're changing the review system for next year, can they also review fouls too?
I mean come on, Miami Heat flops like their titles depends on it. If there was contact, fine. But let's start taking away fouls because someone's neck goes into spasm.

Voegel is a tactical dunce. You have Hibbert, who gave the Heat hell in the playoffs last year, relegated to being stuck as a decoy or side piece.
Voegel must have went to the same school as Fratello, Thibideau, Mike Brown, Jeff Van Gundy when it comes to offense. No flow at all, sloppy execution, just give it to the star and let everyone just stand around.
He can't manage his locker room. Hibbert's ego has been deflated, Stephenson still thinks he is all-star despite being the definition of mediocre, Hill can't boil water, let alone run an offense, and George needs to show more hunger and fight.
I hope the Spurs/Thunder humble the Heat because the Pacers are done.

I'm hoping so. Watching those guys fall down every other trip down the floor is ridiculous.
I get that, tactically, it gets you to the charity stripe (or at least gives you possession), but where's the honor?
Hoping to see Tim get his 5th ring.

The NBA would rather want an OKC vs Heat finals but you are correct, the Heat would rather face the unproven OKC than face 4-time champions. Westbrook will try to barge in the way he is used to and get knocked over the next game for sure.:-|

How they still let him work in the NBA much less any spurs game boggles my mind.
might as well bring back donaghy. At least he made good calls when he didnt have money on the line.

What's wrong with Lance Stephenson?
He's on a contract year, a legend like Larry Bird set him aside and told him to stop with the antics, and what does he do?
Slap people on the face, with one of them resulting in a flagrant.
Seriously, what's wrong with that fool?

Like when the Pistons ran Larry Brown away in 2006, the Loonatics are running the asylum.
