If the Cavs were in the West, they'd miss the playoffs

[SillyRabbit]

True or not?

[lakerspng]

true. they'd probably have another 3-4 losses right now, minimum... and trailing for that 8th spot.

[Mr. Jabbar]

Absolutely

[nba_55]

False, lebron wouldn't sit out 2 weeks, they would make their roster moves earlier, and huge rigging would occur to get them in the playoffs like it occured for the lakers in 2012.

[Heavincent]

True

[Magic 32]

False, lebron wouldn't sit out 2 weeks,

He would not have joined the team.

A carmelo-led team can miss the playoffs. A Durant-led team may miss the playoffs.

But I don't think a Branteam will miss the playoffs, tbh. Say bye to Phoenix if the Cavs were in the west.

Um, the Cavs are 19-18 in the East. What makes you think they would be better in the West?

Bran hasn't missed the playoffs since his second year because he's had the luxury of playing in a shit conference. There's a reason he doesn't dare jump ship to a western conference team.

What years would he miss it? Not with heat teams nor with the #1 seed cavs

I would not be surprised if Cleveland ends up with a better record than Phoenix or whoever becomes the West 8th seed. I fully expect the Cavs to get it together over the course of the season.

I'm not on the "Bran is no longer the best player" bandwagon.

Odd, considering the team you root for has a player who has been better this season.

Kind of weird how Kobe didn't get the benefit of the doubt in 2011 when he was playing on a bad knee, but Bran does?

The snow is white what an amazing revelation.

Yeah, Curry has outplayed Bran this season. I hope he continues to do so and would be ecstatic if he went for MVP.

It's a long season, though. I just don't buy all that shit about Bran's being done and he's lost 75% of his athleticism.

And I am in no way a Branstan.

He's obviously not done. He's still elite, just not the undisputed king of the NBA like he was in 12 and 13.

How could they miss the playoffs? I thought Lebron only signed with the Cavs cause they are stacked beyond belief. :rolleyes:
