This Cavs season could be a lot like the 2010-11 Miami Heat...

and remember the end of the season?

Just one game...but the new group is going to struggle a little bit, Bran tried to downplay the expectations but we all know it's championship or bust with this talent. At least the NBA Finals.

So if Kevin Love or Kyrie perform at an MVP/FMVP level, will lebron sabotage again?

I see this happening very much. The first game is a good example.

Lebron played just as poorly at the start 2010/2011 season as he did last night. Everybody ignores that though. It's much easier to call him washed up, beta, etc.

And he finished that season playing the same way...or even worse

The Heat collapsed in so many close games that season it was crazy then they got their shit together in the playoffs until the Finals.

That 2011 Heat team was really good. If not for a legendary performance, by Dirk, the Heat would have won the championship.

2011 Mavs were deadly. One of the best teams in NBA history. Jason Kidd, Dirk, Chandler, Terry, Marion, etc were something special. Rick Carlisle had that team firing on all cylinders.

[PJR]

Yeah, this Cavaliers team WISHES they finish top 5 in defensive efficiency like the Heat did in 2011.

They wish.

Yeah, he's the same player, right? Your lover, Kobe, has had many shit games too. Who gives a ****.

26/10/2 on 42% shooting is legendary? 9-27 in Game 6 is legendary?

His best game of the Finals came in a loss, he looked pretty average in those wins..

lol, their offense will probably be top 3 when all is said and done. and a fantastic offense can offset a mediocre defense, in fact it usually will in basketball. But then again ya'll are judging them after one game, when playoff series arent played for another 6 months, so...

Since when do Kobe stans care about efficiency?
Funny thing is that in 7 Finals appearances, Kobe has only shot higher than 42% in two of them!

And?

We're talking about LEGENDARY here, what's legendary about 26 ppg on less than 42% shooting? (I rounded that shit up for him),, nikka was talking like Dirk put up prime Shaq Finals numbers or some shit like Heat had no chance to win or some shit. Jason Terry lit bran the fukk up in that series.

Dirk was good, but he wasn't that great in the wins..

One of the best Finals ever.

Thank you Dirk
