    Fair enough. Lebron by himself is more interesting than a faceless Atlanta team, I'd say.

    i dont really find any of the remaining matchups intriguing. this is a pretty weak crop of contenders and whoever wins the title will probably be the worst champ in the past 20 years. the clippers and wizards were clearly better teams than the teams who won. injuries have played a major roll this year.

    Of Course they Are...

    Bron's Still THE Best Player on the Planet & No Matter HOW Well Curry Plays, Bron WILL NOT Allow Himself to Be Outdone...Not Saying he'll WIN the Series by Himself (Or @ All for that Matter), but there'll Be NOfuckingDOUBT Who the Best Player in the League (STILL) Is, When it's All Said and Done....

    Beyond that, the Warriors have SUSPECT Size, Whereas, Timofey Mozgov and Tristan Thompson are LEGIT Bangers Down Low...JR Smith and Shumpert Tangling with Draymon Green and Klay Thompson is Interesting as Well...

    & Having Said All that, 50% of Kyrie Irving is Still BETTER than the Majority of the League...

    Perhaps YOU'D Rather Californicate, Watching the Bearded, Serial Free Throw Shooter in the Finals, but the Vast Majority of America Definitely WOULD NOT...

    REED Can Agree the Clippers and Wizards were BETTER than Houston and Atlanta, but in NO Way Does that Mean the Clippers and Wizards were BETTER than Golden State and Cleveland...

    nope. i dont have much interest in the NBA final 4 at this point. like i said before these are four weak teams left in the grand spectrum of the history of championship teams.

    I love watching Golden State. Curry might be the most exciting athlete in the world when he's feeling it.

    That is averaging 17ppg 14rpg 2.5bpg while shooting almost 60% in only 33 mins per game in the playoffs. Every team in the NBA would love a Certified BEYOTCH like that.

    I guess no one wanted to watch Kobe, Jordan, Malone, Wade, Durant, and on and on either, since ya know, they all shot just as many or MORE free throws. Your hatred for Harden is gay. 90% of the time he gets a foul call, he does in fact get hacked, perhaps watch the replay instead of just straight hating.

    Guess who lead the league in FT attempts in last year's playoffs??? RUSSELL WESTBROOK. Who lead the regular season last year in FT attempts??? KEVIN DURANT.

    Get the fuck over it REED.

    Oh and if it's Rockets vs Cavs in the Finals, Rockets win.

    Dwight Howard is FAKER than Silicone Tits, as Evidenced by the Way he SOLD Stan Van Gundy Down the River in Orlando...

    When Kevin Durant's 6'11, 125 Pound Ass Calls You a "Pussy", TO YOUR FACE, and When Kobe Bryant Calls You "Soft", TO YOUR FACE, You're a Certified BEYOTCH...Predictably, You Get MENSTRUAL Over ANY Perceived Slights Against ANY Current Member of the Houston Rockets & You Swoop in to Defend their Name like Captain Save-A-HOE...

    Fuck Outta Here w/that Shit, Dude...

    Practically NOBODY in the League Likes Dwight Howard & RIGHTFULLY So...Why, Because he's a Certified BEYOTCH...

    Every Guy You Named was INFINITELY More ENTERTAINING to Watch than Harden AND, On the Occasions they DIDN'T Get Every Call from Refs, they STILL Put Up Big #'s Anyways...None of them were NEARLY as Co-Dependent on Free Throws, as Harden Is, to Put Up All-Star Caliber #'s...

    Hell, the ONLY Reason your Team is Still Alive is Because McHale BENCHED Harden's Ass in the 4th Quarter of Game 6, so Brewer & J-Smooooove Could do their Thang...Everyone Sees Harden for What he Is EXCEPT You...

    REED's "Hatred for Harden is GAY"...No, YOUR HARD-ON for Harden is GAY, Homey...Like REED Said You're Fucking MENSTRUAL, Only Instead of it Being that Time of the Month, it's that Time of the YEAR Where You Become CARING and SENSITIVE to Anything the Slightest Bit Negative, in Regards to your Precious Widdle Basketball Squad...

    If Harden Played w/Any OTHER Team, You'd AGREE w/REED's Points, just like Every Other Fucking Dude that Regularly Posts in this Thread has...AND, You'd ACCEPT Dwight Howard for the Unadulterated BEYOTCH that he Is...

    You're Attacking REED on Some BUTTHURT Fan Bullshit, Yet Had the Audacity to Call REED "Gay"???...

    Really???...

    howard has been healthy this post season and his team is now 8 games away from a title. if they get past GS they will beat cleveland. James has always had problems with howards teams because he cant get all the way to the rim against them.

    Howard peaked in Orlando. His offensive game got stuck in dunks, alley oops and put backs. While he's an elite shot blocker, he's not considered a true defensive anchor. He's more flash than substance.

    Yep, as a Defensive Anchor, DeAndre Jordan Has MORE Substance than Today's Version of Howard...

    Howard Most Definitely PEAKED in Orlando...Today's Version AIN'T Bad by Any Means, but he Damn Sure AIN'T What he Was in Orlando...

    howard and jordan are both great defensive anchors. to say howard isnt one is pretty silly. there was one reason griffin wasnt finishing shots down the stretch at the rim in the clippers game 6 collapse, howard.

    Howard's one of the most overrated players of all time.

    Inferior to Zo Mourning.

    Mourning was awesome. He was also a tier below the likes of the big 4 centers of the 90s - Hakeem, Shaq, Robinson, and Ewing. Puts into perspective how far behind those guys D-Coward is.

    I don't put a healthy Howard far behind Robinson. At all. Mourning was better than robinson

    You done lost your mind. Prior to his injury in 96 which effectively ended his prime, Robinson was several levels better than Howard and Zo. And I didn't even like Robinson. Robinson's peak is ahead of Duncan's, let alone Howard and Zo.

    Even if you hate Robinson, you have to admit, he was single handedly carrying that 90s Spurs teams to some excellent regular seasons, and they woulda likely won it all in 95 had Hakeem not gone into inmortal God-mode.

    Put Howard on that mid 90s Spurs team, and they aren't a fraction as good.

    O'Neal in 2000 was probably the best NBA player that ever lived. I say that as a huge Jordan and Hakeem fan.

    So are you saying that Sabonis had the potential to be the goat?
