Cleveland and Lebron advance AGAIN........OR Philadelphia knocks out Lebron to advance to the NBA finals?


NOT EVEN CLOSE.........Philly.
But ESPN will only spin everything to Lebron.

Considering how people are awaiting what LeBron will do this summer, this is a rather useless complaint.

Rockets winning the title despite the disrespect is the best NBA postseason story IMO.

Philly beating Lebron and then Lebron signing there this offseason is the maybe best storyline in nba history.

Even better than if kyrie and the Celtics would’ve knocked them off.

Philly won't have a chance without Embid.

He would be back before a cavs series. Idk if they can win in the first round without him. They haven’t played many teams who aren’t utterly terrible in this recent streak. Would have to see the matchup.

I just cant see how anyone would want to see Cavs again in the finals.

Enough already. Anyone but them...................please!

If you think there is literally a 0% chance the ECF winner can win the FInals, I get wanting a new team.

If you think there is a sliver of hope, the Cavs are the only team that will give you that hope, so logically you'd want the Cavs if your goal is to have a Finals that isn't already 100% determined.

If Houston makes the finals and they don’t get to pummel Lebron into Bolivian I won’t be a happy camper about that. I doubt many fans would rather their team beat the raptors over beating Lebron.

NO.......I want ANY team in the finals BUT the Cavs!!

I am so sick of seeing Lebron on TV it makes me want to never watch the NBA again.

I want them to lose in round 1 and watch ESPN cry.

I want a Finals that has possibilities of being worth watching. CLE is the only team that can make that happen.

I kinda feel bad for Harden. He’s got a terrible reputation from his previous years in the playoffs. 14 TO’s in a series eliminating game (IIRC) didn’t help any, so I hope Harden does well and the Rockets win it all.

The NBA and ESPN has you brainwashed like everyone else.

There are plenty of teams in the NBA that are entertaining...........you just dont ever see them because of the Lebron Lovefest.

If Cleveland is the ONLY team with a chance...........then why are they tied with the 76ers for 4th in the standings????

Teams that have a shot of winning one game in the Finals against whoever comes out of the West?

There is no IF about it. Cleveland is the only team with a chance to beat Houston or GS.

I don't watch ESPN but for live sports, they must be really good if they brainwashed me without me even watching, right?

You think another East team has a better shot at winning a FInals vs HOU or GS over CLE? That's adorable.

They are

You do realize Lebron hasn't been the #1 seed the last 4 seasons right?

Did you think Indy had a chance in '13? Did you think the 60 win Hawks who were 7 games better than Lebron's team had a chance to win the East, much less the West, in 2014? Yet you think I'm the brainwashed one.

No they don’t.

If Steph is good enough for Gsw To beat HOU they will destroy Cleveland.

If HOU plays Cleveland they will kick the shite out of them. 5 games tops.

James knows people are gonna say he can’t wjn it all. Til he wins it. That goes for every super star level player ever. Until they win people will say they can’t. It’s a “challenge accepted” for James, Chris, and Mike. We can’t wait.

This is a “get your due when you win” league”. We not getting into it here but fans of a certain player want to make an exception for their guy and their guy only when it comes to that standard.

I’m not saying they will beat GS/Houston. I’m saying they have the best chance of all the eConference teams to do so.

I’d say CLE beats TOR but TOR has a better chance to take down Houston than Cleveland due to matchup. Cleveland has no chance. TOR can cause problems.
