Cats vs Hawks 4/14


Omega Atrocity

Recommended Posts

Until you beat the 2-time defending champs in the playoffs and knock the king off his throne, they and he are both the best. We're talking playoffs here - not regular season.

San Antonio has 4 rings...

They outplayed Miami last year in the Finals & would've won if not for some BS desperation shots by Allen...

Get out of here with the King/throne BS. LeBron isn't nearly as good in the Finals. He turns into a mental midget.

So the are pussies for "tanking" in order to avoid the Bulls in round two, but you all are fine with this thread about doing all we can to avoid the Heat in round one? That's funny stuff.

 

Miami has won two titles in a row. LeBron is one of the best players of all time already. They have the second best record in the East. They can do whatever the hell they want.

Think the forum name should be "Everyone bow down and kiss Lebron's ass". cause most of y'all sound like Horncat fans until the Heat come to town.

I'll be the first to say, if we play the heat we beat them in 6.

 

Like the optimism, but the Heat have beaten us in 16 straight. http://www.landofbasketball.com/head_to_head_gl/heat_vs_bobcats_game_log_season.htm

 

There's about a 1% chance we beat the Heat in 6.

Yeah.. You're right..

Jordan used to sit out games & intentionally lose to manipulate his matchups all the time...

SA doesn't have last year's ring. Or the one from the year before that. We're not going back in history here and comparing which franchise has had more historical success. The Heat are the champs until they're beaten. LeBron is the NBA and the NBA Finals MVP until he's replaced. Your opinions are irrelevant until that happens.

There is no excuse for tanking a game, it's called gamesmanship... and it something you would never see at the college level which is why the NCAA is FAAARR superior than the NBA.

 

 

The NFL teams rest their players, too, once their playoff seeding is locked up. 

 

I agree with you....just playing devil's advocate.

Injury factor... much more of a chance that a player will get injured playing football than basketball.

And for the record, I don't think NFL teams should sit their players either... especially with fans paying to come see then play.

    • Yea I have it.  When it flares it can be very severe.  I had an extended hospitalization a couple years ago and it took a while to recover.  Can’t imagine trying to deal with that as a pro athlete.  It’s hard enough as a desk jockey.
    • I think the difference is that The Golden Calf of Bristol and Cam were just big personalities with big time talent (The Golden Calf of Bristol just lacked any consistency, leading to most of us hating him because it felt like he pulled big plays out of his ass). Sanders is a good talent who is completely full of himself and the ego feels unearned. You should WANT to change the bad culture of the losing franchise you expect to go to as a top pick...but that's a thing you keep to yourself or articulate well enough that it doesn't come off as "we're doing poo my way, if you don't like that, don't draft me".  You don't create an entire room touting yourself as legendary when you did absolutely nothing legendary at the collegiate level. Nobody is going to be fondly remembering Shadeur Sanders the college QB. Johnny Football is there, Cam is there, Vince Young is there, RGIII is there, The Golden Calf of Bristol is there.   Sanders needs humility and to pry himself away from his father. His father is going to tank his career before it is even started.    Sanders may bounce around the league as a backup for a few years, he'll play in select games and look like a backup but he'll have that one game where he pops off and that game will be used to say "see?! He's great!" and then he'll get the start and never live up to that game again.
