I don't think we're going to cruise to the finals. This is the NBA people, we're going to be challenged, and there are going to be road blocks. I am confident we can win it all, but is it going to be easy? Hell no, it never is.
It's going to get ugly and tough. But if you can't stand the heat in the kitchen, then get out.
I know it's going to be tough and I like it. It'd be boring if it wasn't.
I've already got the car picked out that I'm flipping and setting on fire when we win.
Where the fuck are you?
Hopefully not dead from shock, that it's finally happening. It's been a long time awaiting.
I have to be cautiously optimistic, it's in my Cleveland nature.
Meh. What are they going to do when we put Shumpert on Butler and Lebron on Rose? Prey that Gasol saves their offense? The Bulls didn't have an answer for the Lebron on Rose maneuver against Miami and we have good defenders to throw at their current solutions
In an interview with ESPN The Magazine after the trade, Perkins said the Lakers were “yesterday’s news” and added, “I don’t like Pau Gasol or Phil Jackson. Phil is arrogant. Pau is soft. Kobe [Bryant] tries to bring out his toughness, but he’s still soft.”
Pau Gasol says “certain players talk too much from my perspective.”
After an extended practice Saturday, Gasol smiled and shook his head when he was relayed Perkins’ remarks.
“Certain players talk too much from my perspective,” he said. “They should worry about their own stuff.”
Believe sir. For once, we finally have one of the most dominant rosters in the league. It's balanced, has very few weaknesses, and ridiculous star power. You have the best player in the game in his prime, the best ball handler, finisher off the glass in the NBA, and the beginning of a fast break in Kevin Love. We've got role players that are excelling in their roles in Moz, JR, Delly, Shump, Tristan. I don't know what more you can ask for from a team. This same team next year might have a real shot at 72 wins. It's that scary good. Hell Lebron + shit got us 66. LBJ is going to have a hard time catching up to 6 rings, but he could probably pull off a 73 win team that wins a championship.

Indomitable said:You should be worrying about the ass kicking coming Thursday.
yoyoboy said:Bruh I'm just playing with you. But I think we actually have a good chance against GS. Lebron didn't play last time and we were in it until the last half quarter even though it was at Golden State.
Indomitable said:Ur still losing Thursday and that's the truth buddy
yoyoboy said:I'll remember this after Thursday's game.
Indomitable said:You will be like most of your frontrunning elk. Only show up if you win. Be here if you lose. Prove me wrong
yoyoboy said:I will, but I don't know what you're talking about. I don't wanna start a pointless argument, but Cleveland has some of the most passionate sports fans in basketball (and football). For a team that had the worst 4 year record in the entire league after Lebron left (97-197), 3rd in attendance, 19th, 22nd, and 16th isn't too bad for a small market like Cleveland. We haven't won a championship in over 50 years and we're still here, right? Oh well, see you on Thursday, bud.
