What ya got now?

Congrats on the big time second round win!

DEEZNUSSFUHYOURMOUF?

that was a truly great LeBron finish tonight. WOW.

Wow. Is this thread serious?

pathetic that dude had to hire a PR firm to tell him how to speak without ****ting all over himself. usually that guy every time he tweets or opens his mouth he says something retarded

Congrats on winning the championship!

Haters ITT. Good speaking skills obviously are of key importance for basketball prowess. Hiring someone to help Lebron speak well is simply a retarded move.

His rediculous display after the game was the most laughable thing.

When he took a knee after the game and put his hand over his face like he was bawling. That was the most rediculous contrived celebration I ever saw.

This team sure loves to celebrate when they haven't won anything yet.

Feeling that your Bulls are getting a little disrespected are you?

Lebron is a top 10 player of all time. He will be the best power forward/small forward to ever play the game. He is the ultimate competitor and will finish 2nd to Jordan as one of the all time greats.

Congrats on beating a geriatric Celtic team.

You can claim your 2nd round trophy at the end of the season along with your next GQ cover.

Cubby would be idiotic to think that the Heat can't/won't beat the Bulls at this point. they're playing really well.

but he's still right. The Heatles display during the last 2 minutes of the game last night was ridiculous. it looked like they won the championship they way they were celebrating and mouthing off.

go bulls.

Nevermind the fact that that Celtics team bounced Lebron twice and Wade once in the past 3 years and it felt great to finally beat them right? Wasn't this board blowing up when the Mavs beat the Lakers? Hypocrites much?

the butthurt continues... cavernous openings

no one's saying don't celebrate.

everyone's saying it was too over the top.

and that's your opinion and you're certainly entitled to it, but when you beat the 3 time defending Eastern Conference champs 2 years removed from an NBA championship at home after a year's worth bad-mouthing and negative press in your first year as a team, then come tell us how it's "too over the top."

Actually I hope they get disrepected between now and the ECF. That team seems to thrive on **** like that. When everyone was kissing LeBron's ass this summer, Rose & Noah were busting their butts in the gym every day. With the way both teams are playing right now, I would expect the Heat to win. If the Bulls can play consistent defense like they did in the regular season (and once this post-season), they will head to the Finals.

I like how now that the Heat are kicking ass and nobody can really say crap about their play, everybody on this board are either A. ignoring their predictions of Heat demise or B. just moving on to criticize how they are celebrating... weak.

Get past Atlanta first before predicting an ECF appearance. You seem to be struggling a bit w/ them at this point let along taking on the Heat.

What Lebron had to say following the game last night:

quote:

---

"I knew deep down in my heart, as much as I loved my teammates back in Cleveland and as much as I loved home, I knew it couldn't do it by myself against that team," James said.

"The way it panned out with all the friends and family and the fans back home, I apologize for the way it happened. I knew this opportunity was once in a lifetime. To be able to come down here and pair with two guys and this organization -- in order for me to move on with my career, that team that we just defeated, we had to go through them."

I like the comments from Doc Rivers. A lot of people in the league still respect the guy even if they think "the decision" was a little over the top.

Didn't Orlando win the East in 2009?

Nope, but they did win it in 2010. 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Ok ya got me...it was in 2009, but I'm pretty sure that's still 2 out of 3 years. Go ahead and check on that for me "stats" and confirm please.

Alot of win in this thread

1st, the Heat were the 2 seed playing the 3 seed, so they should win that series.

2nd, the Celtics were banged up and old. Rondo was hurt in the last three games and Shaq didnt play more than 5 minutes. If the Celtics would have had an inside presence besides KG, this series might have gone very differently.

3rd, if all the Heat wanted to do was beat the Celtics, congrats you did it, but the rest of the teams left in the playoffs have higher aspirations than beating just 1 team.

Danny Ainge.

Agree totally. There sure are a lot of LeBron haters on Texags. It is funny to see them try to find something else to criticize him on.

Orlando went to the NBA finals two years ago. The Celtics are the defending Eeastern Conference champs and they are 3 years removed from the NBA title.

Never thought I'd see the day where the Mavs sweep the defending champion Lakers without a ton of on-court celebration, and the greatest team ever assembled $**ts their pants over a second round victory.
