If the Lakers take Lonzo it will come with some requirements that Lavar shuts the fuck up.
and today Lavar has got into an on-air spat with the co-host on Colin Cowherd's show. I don't see him going away anytime soon.

He is a proponent of the all is news is good news theory. I watched a segment with Ramona Shelbourne on the Jump ESPN talking about her experience interviewing him. There is method to the madness, and if Lonzo and any of the other boys become all stars he may be looked back upon like a Richard Williams type figure

All hail the King.....
Lebron's unreal playoff performance run continues. Even though Celtics are the best finishing team, the game was over by halftime.
-
The whole season was a waste of time. Should have just had the two super teams play a best of 11 at the start of the season and be done with it

The Cavs are looking awesome at just the right time

If you were an Eastern Conference team, you'd surely be tempted to go the full Hinkie and build for a potential big season in 2019-2020.
Because with Lebron the way he is, you just aren't getting past Cleveland any time soon.
At least in the West you feel like the Warriors dynasty might be toppled if one player left/got injured.
-
@barbarian Agreed. There's talk Celtics should trade the number 1 pick for a contributor right now. An argument could be made it is better to take the best college player and wait 5 years for him to develop because no one is stopping LeBron in the east any time soon.

Jimmy Buckets or Paul George.....

Its not just LBJ, the supporting cast is fucking good as well. Add them to one of the greatest players of all time seemingly still at his peak and the rest of the east is fucked. And maybe the Warriors as well.

It would come close to making my sporting year if the Warrior's don't win it all

@Baron-Silas-Greenback why? Expensive team beats other expensive team is hardly a fairytale. The Cavs have the highest payroll in the league.

Draymond Green is a fuckwit. Curry is a phony, Durant is a ring chaser and the coach is an SJW
-
@Baron-Silas-Greenback fair enough, I've hated teams for less
-
GS draws first blood. They show no signs of rust, Durant had a strong scoring game and won most of his one on one defensive matchups against LBJ. Cavs only have to win the next game to steal home court but they got blown out and their defensive frailties were ruthlessly exposed

I could not like this more, 1000% agree.
-
Far too many turnovers by the Cavs and giving up offensive rebounds.
Warriors aren't a great offensive rebounding team, but if you give them second shots they will make you pay.
Klay's defence against Kyrie and on the switches really set the tone. KD and Curry will find ways to score, but the defence in the 2nd and 3rd was big and won them that game.
-
LBJ on a mission. Big first half and sweet dunk to boot.
High scoring from both sides. I think Cavs better start playing better D, I'd back the Warriors at home in a shootout against the Cavs
-
Bloody good game to watch today. If the Cavs want to turn this into a run-and-gun series then they will be lucky to win a game.
They can hang with the Warriors for 3 quarters at that pace, but not 4. Their bench is non-existant, which doesn't help.
If they slow the pace of the game, then they can compete. But barring a massive cold streak from Curry AND Durant AND Thompson... I can't see them winning. But I said that last year.

Except they didn't have KD. He is in otherworldly form at the moment
