Lol you see the expressions on their face? The way they feel is how they look in this picture without Lebron.

[Hulk Hogan]

Massacre... #two :lol

[UtahJazzFan88]

Eh, the game doesn't really have much importance when it's in Miami, just another game as far as I'm concerned.

The Cleveland-Miami matchup is more like the Cleveland fans vs. LeBron.

[d.bball.guy]

You rated your own thread 5 stars.

[PianoMan]

You rated your own thread 5 stars.
How can you tell if i voted for it?

[SoCalMike]

after last game, i am not gonna fall for the hype...




:pimp:

[d.bball.guy]

How can you tell if i voted for it?
I saw it rated 5 stars with only 1 view right after you made the thread.

[L.Kizzle]

It's not on ESPN!

[PianoMan]

It's not on ESPN!
Duh. But who's that girl on your Avy?

[Disaprine]

definitely going to see this. :lol

[kabalcage]

I wonder if Miami will reciprocate the LeBron treatment to a Cleveland player.

[Draz]

no hype this time cav fans?

[RedBlackAttack]

I wonder if Miami will reciprocate the LeBron treatment to a Cleveland player.
That would require... You know... Fan involvement.




So, no.

[Lebron23]

I hope the Cavs would put up a much better fight in this game. I want to see a double-overtime.

[Draz]

double overtime .. -.-

[Harrison_Barnes]

It will be another blowout.. led by Wade this time though.:rockon:

[Dwade305]

Pianoman creating the Heat game thread= Heat W guaranteed:rockon:

[RedBlackAttack]

I hope the Cavs would put up a much better fight in this game. I want to see a double-overtime.
Don't hold your breath.

[SavageMode]

Hahaha wow I feel bad for the Cavs... their team consists of 60% Cast-offs(Joey Graham, Jamario Moon, Anthony Parker - Ex-Raptors, Leon Powe = Ex-Celtic) and Mo Williams/Gibson as the #1 Option. Im sorry Cav fans.. I feel for ya.

[BrentISballin]

Hahaha wow I feel bad for the Cavs... their team consists of 60% Cast-offs(Joey Graham, Jamario Moon, Anthony Parker - Ex-Raptors, Leon Powe = Ex-Celtic) and Mo Williams/Gibson as the #1 Option. Im sorry Cav fans.. I feel for ya.
Lol cavs have the least talented roster in the NBA, hands down.

[jbryan1984]

If they can't win in Cleveland, I doubt they win in Miami. Just please...... No laughing with LeBron! This guy deserted you and he took your hearts out of the game when you were on track to get a 7th or 8th playoff spot. Please Byron Scott, preach this to them. I don't care if we lose, I just want them to play against LeBron like they would any other opponent and not treat him as a buddy.

[imlmf]

I hope the Cavs would put up a much better fight in this game. I want to see a double-overtime.



are you on crack? what in the world makes you think this shhitty azz piss awful cavs team would force not one, but two OT's playing against the sizzling heat in miami?

[DukeDelonte13]

i'll be watching.

[InfiniteBaskets]

In my eyes, even if the Cavs were the team to snap the Heat's 9 game win streak, it still wouldn't be enough to redeem themselves after that awful performance in Cleveland. They'd have to win this game convincingly in order to regain some of that respect back.

[nashisbest]

well they beat the celtics didn't they?

[Faberg]

Heat hasn't lost the last time they played the Cavaliers.

Cavs hasn't won a game since they last played the Heat.

Auto win for the Heat. They will blow them out of the building. :ohwell:

[asdf1990]

well they beat the celtics didn't they?

Shaq said they sleep walked in that game. Since they knew how awful that team was.

[Cangri]

Shaq said they sleep walked in that game. Since they knew how awful that team was.
And it was also a back to back game.

[ashbelly]

And it was also a back to back game.

They've got enough rest this time around.

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

They've got enough rest this time around.
boston had a b2b

[ashbelly]

boston had a b2b


ok

[nashisbest]

that's no reason to lose to a Cavs team... you play 7 games series in the frigging playoffs

[alenleomessi]

Heat win by 35

[ginobli2311]

Heat win by 35

the heat are 17 point favorites

i love the cavs in this game +17.

[chris2010]

the cavs are going to just act all buddy w/ lebron like the last game. and then the lebron apologists are going to explode and say that they are the worst team in nba history and lebron won all those games and playoff series from day one.

[derb2k2]

i see a blowout for the heat but the cavs will put up a decent fight only to get blown out late in the 3rd

[New York Knicks]

Cavs by 13

[AirGauge23]

Arroyo not playing (Grandfather passed away).

[ginobli2311]

told you to bet the cavs.

[lock]

told you to bet the cavs.

give them a head start.

[ginobli2311]

give them a head start.

catching 17. i really like this game for the cavs. as always i could be way off, but i really thought they would come and play much better and that the heat wouldn't be dialed in.

looks good so far.

[comerb]

That would require... You know... Fan involvement.




So, no.

It would also require that Cleveland has an all-star player, again... no.

[BuGzBuNNy]

Guess that's Wade's new move now :lol

[ginobli2311]

wow. just wow.

[AirGauge23]

wow. just wow.

Talk about body control.

[PianoMan]

Graham just got posterized.

[madmax]

I laugh at all these fools who proclaim that Lebron is all strenght and no skill:lol Dude is as skilled as they come - some guards could only dream of his body control and court vision

[kingkong]

O laugh at all these fools who proclaim that Lebron is all strenght and no skill:lol Dude is as skilled as they come - some guards could only dream of his body control and court vision

soooo...you dream about his body a lot?

[ginobli2311]

O laugh at all these fools who proclaim that Lebron is all strenght and no skill:lol Dude is as skilled as they come - some guards could only dream of his body control and court vision

i feel like i'm living the same sports life i had in the 80s when everyone was saying the same thing about jordan for his first 6 years. it was all the same crap.

he only cares about stats. he's not a team player. he's not as great as bird/magic. he's not skilled. he'll never win a title. once he loses some of his athleticism he'll be bad.

these are all the same things i was arguing over everyday with my brothers and my dad about jordan. all the same crap. and how did that turn out? not only arguably the best basketball ever but voted the greatest athlete ever.

now i'm not saying the same will happen with lebron. but let it play out.

[Patrick Chewing]

Is the arena still empty?

[EnoughSaid]

Is the arena still empty?

I think they're just getting there. Miami is 6th in selling seats out.

[inclinerator]

where the f is the score/?

[ginobli2311]

Is the arena still empty?

the lack of a great homecourt could really hurt this heat team in the playoffs. its not only that they arrive late, but they aren't loud at all.

[kingkong]

where the f is the score/?

yeah i dont have one on my stream either ;/ theres another stream but it's the same one only 1 minute behind

[EnoughSaid]

the lack of a great homecourt could really hurt this heat team in the playoffs. its not only that they arrive late, but they aren't loud at all.

In the playoffs I think the seats would be filled quickly, especially if your facing a team like Orlando, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta or New York.

[O_City_Thunder]

where the f is the score/?
I hate not being able to see the score. I wonder why it's not showing it...

[ginobli2311]

In the playoffs I think the seats would be filled quickly, especially if your facing a team like Orlando, Boston, Chicago, Atlanta or New York.

yea. thats why i said its not just that....its that they aren't loud at all.

anyway. lets go cavs. sorry heat fans. i've got money on the cavs. looking good so far.

[MrJohnWall]

That and1 Lebron got was f*cking nasty :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

[inclinerator]

jones lol

[EnoughSaid]

I personally think when you're trailing in the first half by less than 10, no-one should panic. The 3rd quarter for the Heat has been amazing the whole year.

[ginobli2311]

ugh. come on cavs. play with some freaking intensity. thats all i ask. the heat are sleepwalking through this game and you aren't capitalizing on it.

[Doranku]

ugh. come on cavs. play with some freaking intensity. thats all i ask. the heat are sleepwalking through this game and you aren't capitalizing on it.

How much did you bet on the game?

[PianoMan]

I like how Chalmers started today. But come on heat blow this team out already.

[ginobli2311]

How much did you bet on the game?

a couple hundred.

why?

[lock]

a couple hundred.

why?

what odds?

[sh0wtime]

Chalmers. :facepalm

Just play Lebron or Wade at PG, for gods sake. He got ok defense, but he passes up wide open jumpshots or occasionally takes them and misses anyways or simply just turns the ball over.

[DuMa]

heat lackluster

[Indian guy]

Chalmers, much as he brings on D, is an offensive liability.

And Miami's effort :oldlol:

[ginobli2311]

what odds?

yea baby. come on cavs.

i have the cavs +17.

[Doranku]

a couple hundred.

why?

Just wondering. Looking good right about now. :cheers:

[ginobli2311]

Just wondering. Looking good right about now. :cheers:

yea. we'll see.

i just really saw this coming. probably should have taken the first half bet. almost did. the heat have actually not played that well the last few games. they won because they played bad teams that were playing poorly. i figured the cavs would play well and it would be more of the same for the heat.

[AirGauge23]

Can Bosh drive to the basket without traveling?

[lock]

yea. we'll see.

you got some balls ill give you that.

[madmax]

Sometimes it feels feel like Heat are purposefully digging themselves up into deep holes before starting to respond in the second half:lol Very lacklustre so far

[chris2010]

are the cavs acting like buddies to lebron like last game?

[AirGauge23]

Just like that the Heat cut it to 3.

And Wade :eek:

[PianoMan]

Another vicious dunk by Wade. Spoelstra took Wade out around the 6 minute mark then we started losing the lead but now that Wade is back in we ended the half strong.

[DuMa]

wow jamison got murked bad!

[O_City_Thunder]

I think that Dunk by D Wade and the layup by Bosh just changed the momentum of this game.

[lock]

big 3rd quarter, lebron sits for the 4th. my prediction.

[RedBlackAttack]

Cavs are fighting, which is all I ask. I don't expect a win, but do not roll over.

[Indian guy]

Cavs are fighting

Miami's doing the opposite. Been a while since I last saw a team have so little respect for the opposition.

[ginobli2311]

Miami's doing the opposite. Been a while since I last saw a team have so little respect for the opposition.

so true. really hope the cavs win this game. the heat are acting like they are too cool to even try against them. such a pathetic display.

[RedBlackAttack]

Miami's doing the opposite. Been a while since I last saw a team have so little respect for the opposition.
If true, that is an indictment of the Heat. Great teams don't take anyone for granted.

[ginobli2311]

If true, that is an indictment of the Heat. Great teams don't take anyone for granted.

yep. and the heat are not a great team. far from it actually.

[che guevara]

Lebron's jumper and FT stroke missing in action tonight.


If true, that is an indictment of the Heat. Great teams don't take anyone for granted.
Really not true at all. Almost all of the '86 Celtics losses were to sub .500 teams. You also might want to look into the '01 and '02 Lakers, or even last year's Lakers.

[comerb]

If true, that is an indictment of the Heat. Great teams don't take anyone for granted.

Boston has constantly lost to teams that are significantly worse than them over the last several years. They even lost to this Cleveland team. The Lakers lose to terrible teams all the time because they don't take them seriously.

You guys are fishin' for reasons to hate on the Heat. Kinda pathetic really.

[mlh1981]

C-mon guys, don't let the 4th quarter spotlight and their stars scare you.......

[ginobli2311]

f that wade.

christ.

[Hulk Hogan]

Wade taking over. :bowdown:

[Hulk Hogan]

Wade. :facepalm

Why did he stop shooting?!

[Hulk Hogan]

WADE!!

Dum cleveland going under the screen. :facepalm

[SIRI1]

Damn, Wade is on fire. 15 in the 4th now

[Hulk Hogan]

LOL @ no one guarding d-wade. :lol

[Indian guy]

LeBron continues to struggle with his athleticism. Slow and awkward all night.

[CanadaBBallFan]

LeBron sucks tonight...absolutely horrible. :lol

[Indian guy]

LeBron :facepalm. Worst game I've seen him play this season.

[ginobli2311]

lol...please lose heat.

please.

[madmax]

LeBron continues to struggle with his athleticism. Slow and awkward all night.

how many times has he proven you wrong though?:lol He just had an off-shooting night - they happen to the best of them

[DuMa]

lol man lebron u need to pass that off!

[Hulk Hogan]

Refs bailed out Lebron right there. :oldlol:

[Harion]

wow. Heat making it a game.

[Hihater]

lebron alway have at less half of his point from FT.

[Hulk Hogan]

Dumb shot by mo. :lol

[inclinerator]

work on ur fts lebron

[Micku]

Mo took a stupid shot. With 20 on the shot clock.

[Point Blank]

How many pts does Lebron have?

[DuMa]

heat got lucky tonight. totally ragged stuff from them

[Harion]

haha, who knew Cavs would be the one to break Miami's streak of winning games with 10+ pts?

[CanadaBBallFan]

How did the Heat win this game!? (if they even do!)

Cavs totally deserved this one. :cheers:

[whinemore]

Good effort by the Cavs.

[Harion]

poor ginobili :lol

[EnoughSaid]

Wow. The score tracker didn't even show up for the game. Miami looked sleepy out there. Since they've played this team before, they probably knew what to expect. Now Amar'e and the Knicks. :pimp:

[comerb]

haha, who knew Cavs would be the one to break Miami's streak of winning games with 10+ pts?

Cavs didn't have much to do with it.

[sh0wtime]

Still good job by Cavs though, they really came out with a sense of urgency playing their guts out, props to them.

[Hulk Hogan]

How many pts does Lebron have?

21pts 5/15 FG with 18 FTA!

[laronprofit9]

Wade has been shooting the ball really well lately.

10/18 fg%56
3/6 3p%50

28 Points.

Lebron and Bosh 5/15(33%) 6/15(40%) respectively. Need to Pick it up.

[Hulk Hogan]

Mo took a stupid shot. With 20 on the shot clock.

They still had a chance if he didn't have jacked up that shot. :facepalm

[Mr. Jabbar]

21pts 5/15 FG with 18 FTA!

:oldlol: :oldlol: 21 pts with 18 fta :oldlol: :oldlol:

[Lebron23]

How many pts does Lebron have?


21 points (Durantnesque 5/15 from the field), 13 rebounds, 5 assists. Wade is the best player of the game with 28 points, and 6 rebounds.

Cavs had in a good run in the 4th quarter.

[Lebron23]

heat got lucky tonight. totally ragged stuff from them


Yes Sir

By the way Knicks and Heat should be a great game. Knicks almost beat the Celtics today.

[Point Blank]

21 points (Durantnesque 5/15 from the field), 13 rebounds, 5 assists. Wade is the best player of the game with 28 points, and 6 rebounds.

Cavs had in a good run in the 4th quarter.
Thanks

[sh0wtime]

21pts 5/15 FG with 18 FTA!

Yea it was really a terrible shooting night for Lebron, it seemed like he couldnt hit layups, dunks, jumpshots, floaters, freethrows, you name it, its not like he was well defended at all, he just couldnt hit anything tonight.
Its good he focused on defense, rebounds and facilitating instead.

Thats why Lebron is so good, he aint just a scorer unlike many else where he gets nullified in the game because he cant hit a shot, if the shot aint falling then you better expect a double-double or a triple-double from him.

[ginobli2311]

poor ginobili :lol

you do realize i won my bet...right?

[jbryan1984]

I am very proud of the Cavs. Kept the lead for half the game, hardly lost, played good D, were aggressive on offense and most of all....... did not give LeBron any friendly treatment. That's everything I asked for and more. Now, if they can give the Heat a go like that, please beat these below 500 teams and get back in the 8th seed.

[Disaprine]

this was a interesting game up until the 3rd quarter, it would have been funny if the cavs won. :lol

[TheMiz]

we da bess

[jrong]

The MVP chants for Wade are getting louder. The fans need to knock that off.

[Indian guy]

this was a interesting game up until the 3rd quarter

Interesting is the last thing this game was.

[Disaprine]

Interesting is the last thing this game was.
it looked like an even game by half time, but then the heat dominated late in the 3rd quarter. :lol

[Harion]

you do realize i won my bet...right?
thought you were betting on Cavs winning? why else post this


lol...please lose heat.

please.

if you were just betting on the under/over?

[ginobli2311]

thought you were betting on Cavs winning? why else post this



if you were just betting on the under/over?

i don't think you understand how betting works. i didn't bet on the over under. i bet on the line. not the money line. the cavs were +17 last night. this means that the cavs would win my bet as long as they didn't lose by more than 17 points.

i posted that simply because i wanted the cavs to win the game. despite what all of you think i actually don't want lebron to win and i don't like him at all. i just don't let my feelings on a player impact how i judge them or analyze them.

[2swift4u]

sure wasn't the greatest game. Miami almost played like earlier this season...

[DukeDelonte13]

i can;t be disapointed by that loss.

[Hulk Hogan]
