We'll just have to wait and see, but I think he'll do very well this season. I had always liked MJD up until people started jumping on his bandwagon.

I do know you supported MJD, and still do, but there's no way he is the best HB in the NFL. Adrian Peterson is still clearly the premier HB in the NFL.

Durant is quickly becoming overrated? Can someone name one thing he does better than LeBron? The only thing you could say is scoring, but that's only because LeBron chooses to distribute more. LeBron can still score 100 more ways than Durant. I'm officially sick.

Good thing I never said that, unlike you saying he was going to finish in the top 3 for rushing with 2,000+ yards.

I don't care if it's too early for this thread, but it had to be made sometime. What are your predictions on this coming season? Who's going to win MVP, who's winning each division, and will I be correct about Chris Johnson not being nearly as good as some of you fools like to think he is, yet again? Lets see the predictions!

How do you miss that call, and then have the audacity to hand Ibaka a technical foul? . The NBA is becoming the worst of the four major sports league in the U.S., if it already isn't.

They won't be winning it this year, so the answer is a resounding no!

That's as obvious of a travel as there is. There's no denying it, unless it's you.

That sucked. The Celtics just couldn't seal the deal, and missed too many opportunities. I don't deny the fact the the Heat attack the rim a lot more than the Celtics, but some of those calls down the stretch were pretty weak, mainly the call on Kristic. It's not the reason they lost, but there needs to be more consistency. LeBron is finally shutting up a lot of his doubters, making clutch shot after clutch shot. He's the best player in the NBA right now, and it's not even close. Wade played well, but LeBron is still on a totally different level then him right now.

Don't come crying about the refs tonight because we all know it will happen if the Heat lose.

Yes, exactly. It was a HARD foul that was uncalled for. I never said that it wasn't a flagrant foul, but five games is dumb enough, but 10-15 is ridiculous.

It's a foul. Lots of fouls are intentional, so your point is moot. All he did was stick his arm out and make contact the the side of Barea. It's not a huge deal, at all, but the pussification of America lives on.

How are there still a lot of tickets available to this game? .

Are you serious? He stuck his arm out a little and bumped him. Plays like this happen, but this has been magnified because the Lakers were getting blown out in an elimination game. The foul was not that bad, at all. The pussification of America continues, and it looks like you are on board.

He's coming to Boston, where the fans have the ultimate passion for sports. On a serious note, I'd kind of be surprised if he left, but if he does, I'm hoping my man Prokorov gets him in New Jersey.

Again, I'll stand by my view that five game is probably too many games, and that 10-15 is one of the most absurd things I've ever heard. If you want to talk about a repeat offender, then suspend this man for 10-15 games because these elbows are worse than Bynum's fouls. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h1Yt4KUND4

He stuck his arm out and bumped him. The flagrant two a maybe a one or two game suspension at the most is all he should have gotten. There's no need to suspend him five games for a "hard" foul that every NBA commentator seems to love to talk about, but when there is a hard foul, they cry and say it's the worst thing they have every seen. The pussification of sports is rapidly increasing, whether it be in football or basketball, and it's pathetic.

I'm 34 and I feel the same way. .

Neither the foul in the video you just posted, nor the foul from game 4 were nearly was bad as many people are trying to make it out to be. Five games for that "foul" is way too much. I love how the commentators are always trying to say, "Oh, this is the NBA playoffs, where you need to commit HARD fouls". This was slightly dirty, but not that bad at all.

The Celtics didn't play well last game, plain and simple, but hopefully the refs don't hold their whistles on obvious travels that occur all came long on LeBron James, especially in crucial situations. Absolutely pathetic. It doesn't get more obvious than that.

Go figure it's lkr. I should have known by how annoying RainbowDash has been recently. .

What the hell? I thought you were RainbowDash for the longest time. . Time to go check the display name history of that bastard.

That wasn't epic at all. There's been plenty worse on television shows, and he didn't really go off. The worst he said was he didn't like black people, and didn't like the idea of the NCAAP.

It was a stupid play on his part, but not as bad as people are making it out to be.

Right. All of the Lakers fans in this thread have said that it's a possibility. .
