***NBA 2017 Finals Thread | CLE vs GSW

  • wala ako nakita isang star lang ang bumuhat sa championship.


    Pistons?
    Hamilton, Billups, Prince, Wallace duo

    I share the same opinion, when you want something, no matter what it is, no matter what field, industry or undertaking, knowing that you did your best, prepared your best, trained your hardest and your confident that you will win, and all of sudden you didn't even make it to the part where you will compete for your goal is so disheartening.

    your confident that your this close to your goal but when things unfolded you just realized that your are so far from it.
  • tignan nyo na lang gaano ka bitter si chuck hehe...

    at the end of the day... kahit pa dominante ka nung panahon mo... pag tanda mo... ring pa din ang hahanap hanapin mo..

    di mo mapagmamalaki ng ikaw ang rebounding monster etc etc...

    ----
    ang nagging validation ni LeBron at nagpatigil sa mga haters nya ay rings.. hindi stats o number ng MVP trophies nya.

    First Championship ng GSW, si Underhand-freethrow Barry lang.

    now imagine kawhi....
  • Sa Era ng NBA ngayon kailangan talaga bumuo o sumali sa Super Team para mag champion. Kaya di ko masisi si Durant kung bakit sya lumipat sa GSW!! Win now or be a loser forever(Barkley)
  • sino ba naman kasi ang ayaw sa isang super team? ang laki kaya ng bonus pag nakapasok ka sa playoffs gang finals
  • now imagine kawhi....



    I remember an interview of DWade before, when he first won his ring, he was very young, he took that for granted, he thought that he will be able to compete for Championships year in and year out because he has already won 1. BUT, year after year, he wasnt even able to reach the finals, some years he missed the playoff, until he joined forces with LBJ and Bosh.


    So point is, its really difficult to compete for a ring, some players doesn't even have experience in the playoff, some doesn't get another chance in playing in the finals again.

    When MJ retired I remember thinking Karl Malone will dominate the league, but he never went to the finals again.


    whats more painful for kawhi, his season ended not on his terms.
  • Cavs/GSW sa finals bago pa lang mag start ang playoffs inabot ko at natayaan Cavs x4 ang odds. Sana manalo =]
  • When MJ retired I remember thinking Karl Malone will dominate the league, but he never went to the finals again.


    He went to the finals with Payton right wearing Lakers jersey?
  • He went to the finals with Payton right wearing Lakers jersey?


    oh yeah, my bad. that was the time that he just wants to win one no matter what.
    but the Pistons had other ideas.
  • ndi ba sumikat lang sila steph thompson nun naging coach nila si kerr at gumanda un standing nila kaya naging super star? o galing na sila dati sa ibang team na sila un star player? si steph dati na sa gsw e
  • ndi ba sumikat lang sila steph thompson nun naging coach nila si kerr at gumanda un standing nila kaya naging super star?


    Kay Mark Jackson coaching palang lumalabas na sila pero mas nangingibabaw kasi si Monta Ellis.

    Yung nasira ang jersey ni Malone naalala ko hehe

  • so kya ndi pa tlga superstar sila thompson green at steph until they got a better coaching and lead them to the finals diba dun lang sila sumikat.

    sa mj vs lbj naman ang masasabi ko hindi matutumbasan ni lbj un leadership ni mj sa lakas pwde pero sa leadership iba Mj parin un ang wala ni lbj kya buhatin nalang nya cavs
  • ^^ nung si Mark Jackson pa coach nila paimprove improve na sila nun.. natalo nga nila Clippers sa 1st round ata nun ehh pero naeliminate sila nung 2nd rd. after nun saka na pinalitan si Jackson ni Kerr. Madami din nagtaka bat sya pinalitan kasi maganda naman coaching ni Jackson at nailabas nya ung capability ni Green, Thompson at Curry.
  • @17

    diba halos allstar naman din kasi ang detriot nun. ben rasheed Wallace,prince,billups,hamilton.kahit wla sila superstar ang lalim masyado ng line up.kaya second straight sila sa finals eh,di lang kinaya ang mas experienced na spurs.nasa kanila pa pala si 2nd draft darko milicic abuchikik na nag ka ring instant naunahan pa si lbj lol.
  • @yeoj_joey

    same here. akala ko si Malone magkaka ring nung nawala si Jordan.
    naalala niyo rockets nag back to back nawala si Jordan,pero pagbalik eh bulls ulit. so special talaga si Jordan sa finals like LeBron. when Jordan retired nga nga ang bulls. bumalik ng wizard at old age fail naman dahil siyempre sa team mates. LeBron leave cavs, nga nga. join the heat 4 consecutive finals.lebron leave heat, nga nga din. now nasan ulit? finals na naman. so diyan palang ma cocompare mo na may special sa dalawang players na to. hindi man sila same ng records sa finals pero halos isumpa sila ng ibang players at team na gusto magchampion. for me halos same lang sila ng scenario MJ lbj as a dominant player na bumubuhat ng team trip to finals. kobe LeBron battle di nangyari dahil malalakas sa west.

    ang malaking tanong ko lang talaga? what if nawala si pippen noon ganun padin ba ang records ni Jordan? yun kasi ang hindi natin nakita kay Jordan kung lilipat ng new team sa prime niya eh kaya niya magpa champion. nakita na natin kay kobe at lbj to scenario. kobe/shaq, kobe/gasol, wade/james , james/kyrie

    They beat the #3 seed Denver Nuggets, led by Andre Iguodala in 2013, then lost to the #2 seed Spurs 4-2 in the next round in 2013.

    Then in 2014, Andre Iguodala signed with the Warriors. The Warriors were not performing in that season relative to the expectations, and therefore, Mark Jackson was replaced after they lost to the Clippers in the 1st round,

  • ^ Talunan din naman si MJ dati sa playoffs during Pistons badboy era late 80's

    During the 90's Bulls na talaga nag dominate

    Pana panahon lang yan
  • Sa sapatos mas ok ang MJ kesa LBJ.

    yes. inggit ako sa classmates ko nung grade 6 na naka jordan 12 yung black/red. lucky bastard.

    may reissue nito kaso di ata locally available.
    last year he did made the last shot, after Kyrie's 3, he almost decapitated Draymond with a dunk, but he fouled him and was able to sank 1 of the freethrows, technically the last shot of the game.

    nanghihinayang talaga ko dun. posterized si dgreen dun kung minalas siya. and the perfect photo to cap that epic finals comeback.

    now, let's just hope we get more action that last year's finals. =D
  • Hindi kaya ni Lebron ung mga game winning shot, iniiwasan nya nga yang mga ganyang moment eh hehehe :)
  • Post deleted #11941373
  • @mel

    I agree. '16 Finals Game7, yung mga last shots ni Lebron eh mga baby hook na alanganin or parang kakapusin.
    Di ko rin sigurado, pero pag last shots of the game parang walang go-to-move si LBJ.

    I'm a BIG FAN of LBJ, pero alam ng lahat na hindi siya mahusay sa mga clutch moments, though meron din siyang mga clutch shots na mangilan ngilan...

    Pero one can't deny his intensity from 1st to fourth quarter. Court vision, passing skills etc..

    This coming Finals, heavy underdog parin ang Cavs kahit defending Champs....
    Everybody wants LBJ to lose another championship at labasan na naman ang hater.
    LOLS.

    Eto tumatak sa akin dati sa sinabi niya nun natalo ang Heat sa Mavs..

    At the end of the day, all the people that were rooting for me to fail ... at the end of the day, tomorrow they have to wake up and have the same life that [they had] before they woke up today. They got the same personal problems they had today. And I'm going to continue to live the way I want to live and continue to do the things I want to do.


    All the haters can bash all they want but after waking up tomorrow, they have the same hate on their minds. While the NBA Superstars earns their millions and enjoy their luxurious lifestyle.
    Though yung mga basher naman talaga ang nagpapasarap ng panalo ng isang team, the feeling of accomplishment na sabi nila, "You dont have the guts to be the champs"
    Pero you proved them wrong..
  • Hindi sa gusto kong matalo ang cavs gawa ni Lebron, gusto ko lang manalo ang GSW gawa ni Curry. Kung boston ang kalaban ng GSW ganun pa din thinking ko.

    Underdog? sabagay tinalo nga ng Boston compared to GSW ng naka 12-0 heheheh
  • CLE parin ako dito at the end of the day

    There are so many reasons bakit para kay LeBron tong season na to

    #1 reason , ayaw ko manalo si KD ng ganun kadali ng ring. yep parehas sila ni bron na pumunta for easy path pero iba issue kay KD.
    Title contender na ang GSW at nasa prime ang superstars nito while bron went to heat at binuo nila.

    Sarap makipag bet nito vs GSW since maganda siguro odds nito hehe
  • Curry has been superb this Postseason... Crossover. step-back jumpers,
    crossover. hesitate then explode to the hoop. He evolved from a stick figured three point threat to a all around player that can shoot from the arc by creating his own shot and having some cool lay up skills added to his repertoire.

    Winning a championship for GSW this year is really deserved by the team.

    Nonetheless, everybody is expecting a historical Finals this year that everyone will enjoy.

  • @drake.

    KD (kuya dick) has been a big villain of the NBA since leaving OKC.
    Ang pagkatalo ng GSW sa Finals ay siguradong celebration din para sa OKC. LOLS

    Last year Finals. Grabe nung 3-1 na yung mga kapustahan ko sinisingil na ako.
    Sabi ko, pre kaya pa yan.. Magtiwala lang.

    3-2. Magbayad nadaw ako. Sabi ko kaya pa yan...

    3-3. Magbayad na daw ako. Sabi ko one game nalang kaya pa yan..

    Last game. Historic block by LBJ, three point shot by Kyrie. Saved the ass of LBJ.
    Talon ako sa bahay. Putang *na. Panalo ko 25k. sa pustahan...
    Hahaha. Sobrang tuwa ko.

    Pagbalik sa opis. ang GSW fans tahimik sila.
    Sabi saken pagkabayad ng pusta.. Move on na tayo.. Wag na natin pagusapan yan.
    LOLS.
