Tibs needs to go. We, DA BULLS, entered Atlanta Hawks territory when they have Josh Smith and Joe Johnson. Very good team but NEVER able to get over the hump.

Clerk 05-15-2015 04:34 PM

DA CAVS !!! It's our time

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-16-2015 01:01 AM

Tom deserves better than being fired having a .647 win record and 5 playoff entries.

Clerk 05-16-2015 05:50 AM

Who cares the Bulls are irrelevant

Not really. If you are trying to win a championship and you keep falling short you deserve to be fired. He won't get a offensive minded coach in there to help him out and he never gets over the hump. He had WAY more talent than the Cavs did and still got his butt whooped because he can't coach any offense. But yet refuses to get a offensive minded coach to help him out.

Plus he runs players into the ground.

Nark Order 05-17-2015 10:44 AM

The problem with firing coaches that have consistently gotten you to the playoffs is that there is no guarentee that their replacement will do well enough to even get into the playoffs. Hate dumb gambles like that.

Clerk 05-17-2015 04:01 PM

Stfu all of yall with yo biscuit headed ass. Cave will win it all lets go yeaaaaaas

Simple Fan 05-17-2015 04:40 PM

You heard it here first guys, The Cave will win the NBA Playoffs.

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-17-2015 06:31 PM

Movie was kinda overrated though. I'd give it the ABA Title maybe.

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-17-2015 09:52 PM

Is Doc Rivers job in jeopardy after that? Flop Rivers.

Ruien 05-18-2015 01:03 AM

Doubt it. Isn't he like the president of the Clippers now?

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-18-2015 01:53 AM

Guess so.

<font color=goldenrod>Top 5 picks in the draft:

1. Timberwolves
2. Lakers
3. 76ers
4. Knicks
5. Magic

lolllllllllllllll Knicks. were one loss away from a guaranteed top 3 pick but managed to squeak out a fluke win against the Hawks in the 2nd to last game of the season. Hope it was worth it!

They aren't going to get Okafor or Towns...so unless Russell falls to them at #4 I'd rather they just trade the pick.</font>

McLegend 05-19-2015 09:06 PM

Only the half fix was in.

Triple A 05-19-2015 09:27 PM

............................................................fucking Knicks. :nono:

Ruien 05-19-2015 09:33 PM

So glad the 76ers won't get either center. Lakers wanted a big man to build around and they will get their wish. Happy the Wolves received the number 1 pick. Want them to become a bad ass team.

Ruien 05-19-2015 09:34 PM

Isn't the draft deep this year? The Knicks will get a really good player regardless. It is not like they need a specific spot. They need every spot.

Emperor Smeat 05-19-2015 10:00 PM

Outside of the small swap, not bad for the Lotto this year. Probably would have been a lot more complaining or fixed accusations had the Lakers won and the worst team once again missed out on the top pick.

Depending on what happens to the Wolves next season, Celtics could end up with another 1-2 extra draft picks for 2016 and 2017. Already have a huge stockpile of picks for the next 3 drafts.

Quote:

As part of a trade that sent forward Brandan Wright to the Phoenix Suns, the Celtics received a protected 2016 first-round pick from Minnesota. If the Timberwolves fall past No. 12 in the 2016 draft, Boston gets their pick. If Minnesota has another poor season and gets a pick inside the top 12, the Celtics instead receive the Wolves’ 2016 second-round pick and 2017 second-round pick.

alvarado52 05-19-2015 10:02 PM

Lakers with the #2. Im more than okay with this. Either Towns or Okafor...or trade it to the Knicks for their 4 and future picks and land Russell or Mudiay.

Regardless the scenario, Lakers are in good shape with this position.

Evil Vito 05-19-2015 10:52 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Despite it being the running gag I can't see the Knicks trading up unless the Lakers were willing to wait until at least 2017 to cash in. They don't have a second rounder nor do they have any picks in 2016.

I think the Knicks would be in good shape with Russell. Mudiay screams bust to me, though. Would rather trade and pick someone later in the first round, and probably get back into the 2016 draft as well.</font>

Bad News Gertner 05-19-2015 11:19 PM

Blah Jazz get the 12th. They really need to deal the pick for some solid vet leadership. Sorely lacking.

I think Steph Curry is the best shooter ever.

Simple Fan 05-21-2015 11:00 PM

My little brother is a huge Warriors fan and I have to hear all his stats and everything he does. He is a bad ass shooter though and that team is built to win.

This post season Curry is averaging 27.1 compared to Lebrons 24.4. Curry is shooting 43.9% from 3, James is 28.6.

Curry is a better shooter.

Simple Fan 05-23-2015 12:27 AM

Lol, how can you not give props to Curry ? Dude is lights out from all over the court and is a sick ball handler. Lebron had one of his worst seasons since his rookie year this year and didn't deserve the MVP.

Clerk 05-23-2015 06:52 AM

Lebron turned a team from like 20 wins to 50. Averaged more points and rebounds. Curry is a decent player I guess but won't matter in the finals when Irving and Shumpert are suffocating him. Not to mention Curry is the Warriors only legitimate scorer. The Warriors will get ran over in the finals and the king will be at the top again.

I want LeBron to get another ring because he gets far more hate than he deserves. But Warriors are local. If those two teams make the finals, I will be happy with either outcome.

Warriors winning would be the closest my area gets to a championship. Would rather the Kings be there. :(

Ruien 05-23-2015 02:58 PM

Do people still hate LeBron? I mean besides for the fact hes the reason Chicago can't advance in the playoffs, hence our rival, I don't see any other fan base really hating on him. Maybe Indiana but most of those people are Bulls fans anyhow.

Lebron didn't do it alone, Irving and Love helped win games. How do you see Curry as the onky legitament scorer? Clay Thompson can get just as hot as Curry on any given night. They have a team built to win and win for awhile, fan or not you have to give that team its due.

He has rekindeled with his biggest haters re joining the Cavs, and Heat fans can't really hate on him a lot since he got them 2 titles. Most of his haters now probally dislike the who way he handled the decision and going on to promise a bunch of title and then spliting Miami after a Finals lost.

Like him or not he is one the most talented players to play the game and you have to at least respect his game. He is in the point in his career were he is going to start declineing though.
