Kobe is so much more likable for a true basketball fan. Lebron is such a whiny bitch it's not even fun watching him. Im serious I find it really hard to root for Lebron, I always want him to lose.

Actually there is a list of players I would rather watch live than Lebron

I can't wait until he leaves Miami and we'll see how big of a fan they are

Weird but impressive stat: Miami is the first team in NBA history to win 5 consecutive road playoff games by double digits.

Heat in 6

Spurs are going to win before it even goes back to Miami

cant really pat myself on the back here since it is the NBA, but Im going to do it anyway and say I told you guys
 
What is an inverted post? Tom Haberstroh wrote yesterday:

The Heat just crushed the No. 1 defense in the NBA with an inverted post offense and the Pacers had no answer.

I never played organized basketball (only football), so a lot of these technical terms are lost on me. Like I'm still not clear on what the difference between a screen and a pick is.
 
lol damn that really helps me out detrmining the basketball knowledge of Miami Heat fans.
Everything I have ever said about Heat fans has now just come true. Thye don't know shit about basketball but are good at cheering for the best team and Lebron

Screen and Pick are the same thing lol

Still one of the most simple and effective plays in basketball if run properly
If you have Chris Paul well you can run this shit all day because if they don't make the switch he'll just take that 20ft jumper

Do you at this moment know the difference between a cut block and a chop block? If not, then by your logic you are a fake football fan! I forbid you from ever speaking a word in public about football.
 
Dude you asked what the difference between a screen and a pick was. lol

c'mon son. no seriously I can't even begin to explain how bad this is

How long have you been watching basketball and you still didn't know this?



and tbh I'm not that big of a football fan but I know a cut block is when they go for their knees
chop block I believe is the same thing except there are 2 people involved.. one goes high, one goes low

And I'm a Lions fan



btw the reason I find that shocking is because a pick was one of the first things in basketball I was ever taught.
Pick and roll was the first basketball play taught to probably everyone who has ever dribbled a basketball
and it's still the best play in the game
 
I do like the Steelers a lot, but really I mostly like them because Mike Tomlin is my favorite coach and Roethlisberger is my favoirte QB.. I love his backyard style

and yes there was a time last season where I honestly believed the Steelers were the best team in football


If the Lions are out I always cheer for the team with my favorite coaches

Tomlin
Jim Harbaugh
and Lovie Smith(This guy needs a job, excellent coach)

We need a coach appreciation thread. If I had to choose my favorite coaches of all time

Joe Torre
Joe Maddon
John Beilein
Mike Tomlin
Ron Gardenhire
Doc Rivers
Tony La Russa

I'm pretty sure 2356 was a Heat fan long before LeBron came along. Probably long before Shaq and Wade came along, would be my guess.


And I don't know, I know a fuck of a lot about football, but when somebody comes along claiming to be a Patriots fan, I don't question their fanhood simply because they don't know what a Cover 2 defense is. You are allowed to be a fan who is not knowledgeable about the game. In fact, I do not see any reason to even associate one's level of knowledge with one's level of fanhood. They are two separate but interrelated things.


I think you just mad.
 
alright but way to make me feel like I've been talking to a brick wall for the past year.


We've been going back and forth just chatting and having discussions about basketball and then all of the sudden you ask what the difference between a pick and a screen is?

lol c'mon get outta here.

like damn.. I don't even understand how you could know anything about basketball if if you don't know that


Its like asking

What's the difference between an interception and a pick?
What's the difference between a strikeout and a K?
 
This makes a lot of sense now actually.

I totally see why he wouldnt think Lebron and the Heat are the biggest floppers in the league. How would he know what a flop is if he doesn't know what a screen is

lol


and congrats to the Spurs... I can't believe I doubted them to beat Memphis.


Whoever makes it to the Finals between Heat/Pacers is going to have a really tough time winning the series. The Spurs get sooo much rest, which they benifit from more than any team in the league.

You might think oh well the Spurs will be rusty for having such a long break. I don't think so.. Park, Ginolbli, and Duncan don't get rusty
they have been in this position so many times before
