pretty sure no one who's criticizing bron tonight has ever had their calf lock up on them as it appeared bron's did. you basically can't put any weight on your leg at all, it's terrifying.

the way they "treated" LeBron's cramps was bizarre, inexplicable, seemingly ridiculous
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 6 June 2014 04:35 (ten years ago) link
talking about the heat staff?
― smooth hymnal (m bison), Friday, 6 June 2014 04:35 (ten years ago) link
yes
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 6 June 2014 04:36 (ten years ago) link
pretty sure any one who's criticizing bron tonight for getting muscle cramps (as opposed to making some legit point about his play on court) is someone not worth listening to.
― Aimless, Friday, 6 June 2014 04:36 (ten years ago) link
srsly. like, ppl criticizing him are measuring bron against a mythological MJ/bird/magic/wilt/kareem hybrid who scored 40/game and walked to the arena through 4 feet of snow and just played harder when they were hurt or whatever.
― smooth hymnal (m bison), Friday, 6 June 2014 04:38 (ten years ago) link
According to Colin Cowherd, he is a mythological MJ/bird/magic/wilt/kareem hybrid.

nutty game; how the hell does a team have 23 turnovers and win by 15
― Look at this joke I've recognised, do you recognise it as well? (forksclovetofu), Friday, 6 June 2014 05:10 (ten years ago) link
well the final score of this game is v deceptive
― Clay, Friday, 6 June 2014 05:38 (ten years ago) link
im reading this "MJ, kobe, magic wouldve played" blah blah im like...lebron wanted to play, he just couldnt walk. kind of an important skill in basketball, p underrated aspect of the game

@hartzellNBA: Duncan first since Wilt (1972) with 20 pts, 10 rebs and 90 FG% in Finals.

shooting 14-16 and 6-6 from three in the fourth quarter will do it
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 11:55 (ten years ago) link
shd be noted miami had 18 turnovers of their own so it wasnt like the biggest disparity ever recorded
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 12:49 (ten years ago) link
curious to see if the refs feel like they want to do anything abt the excess physicality
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 12:50 (ten years ago) link
the game went to donkeytown with 4 minutes left and Bron out when it was Spurs by 2. I wouldn't put any stock into the final but the good news for the Spurs is that they played pretty horribly and still managed a win (sort of a lucky one, but still)
the hell with anyone criticizing LeBron for this, he played really well and cramps are no joke. how bout we focus on the fact that he hardly ever gets hurt like this even though he's played basically an entire season's worth of playoff games and unlike anyone on the Spurs he goes for 40+ minutes a night.

it's very strange that it keeps happening in the finals but yeah it's not like it's his fault or anything
― k3vin k., Friday, 6 June 2014 13:30 (ten years ago) link
it is kinda funny how it takes a non injury injury to take him out
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 13:30 (ten years ago) link
some perspective from windhorst

"It was right in my wheelhouse," Ray Allen said.
"I don't care. I'm from Texas, man. We couldn't afford air conditioning in high school," Chris Bosh said.
"It reminded me of the days at Cameron Indoor at Duke before they got AC," Shane Battier said.
"It felt like I was playing in the European Championship. We never have AC in Europe so it didn't bother me at all," Tony Parker said.
lol windhorst playin both sides
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 13:49 (ten years ago) link
pretty sure ray sleeps in hyperbaric chambers and shit he was definitely good
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:06 (ten years ago) link
yeah when everyone else looked exhausted he looked totally normal
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:11 (ten years ago) link
def made some plays he wouldnt have under normal circumstances
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:12 (ten years ago) link
yeah especially that third quarter when the spurs looked really sluggish ray was flying around
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:13 (ten years ago) link
i wonder what predisposes people to cramps, i used to get them a lot in my calves before i started running
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:18 (ten years ago) link
but its not like i was strategically hydrating or anything
more like strategically dehydrating right folks turn up
wonder if brons massiveness has anything to do w his susceptibility to overheating
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:19 (ten years ago) link
yeah it might just be bad luck of the draw, though of course getting cramps in warm arenas is a much better draw then arthritic knees or whatever
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:21 (ten years ago) link
yeah considering he seems to be otherwise invulnerable
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:27 (ten years ago) link
tho i def feel like weve seen the first signs of his physical decline this year, like sometimes he looks tired
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:29 (ten years ago) link
he's still basically unstoppable even from an athletic standpoint on the offensive end but his one-on-one defense slipped this year for sure for whatever reason
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:30 (ten years ago) link

jesus not really appreciating the quality of his seats smh
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:31 (ten years ago) link
altho in the last series when he wanted to check lance one on one he could still do it, but this year he's let guys dribble past him on the reg
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:31 (ten years ago) link
prob mostly a case of just resting up for the offs
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:32 (ten years ago) link
feel like m/l having yr peak athleticism but consciously conserving it is phase one of the decline
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:33 (ten years ago) link
yeah for sure
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:34 (ten years ago) link
his game has def gotten a lot more crafty will be interesting to see how he ages considering hes been the best athlete in the world his entire life, seems like he knows whats up and is adjusting his game accordingly
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:35 (ten years ago) link
and of course his big and strongness isnt going anywhere
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:36 (ten years ago) link
everyone says he has one of the highest bball IQs in the game, he'll be fine
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:37 (ten years ago) link
his post game and three point shot have gotten better as he's aged, basically two things you need to hold onto as you get older
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:38 (ten years ago) link
yup
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:41 (ten years ago) link
wonder how the positional balance of playing the 3 or 4 will sort out
― lag∞n, Friday, 6 June 2014 14:42 (ten years ago) link
wade is shooting 38% from three in the playoffs this year. DARE I DREAM??
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Friday, 6 June 2014 14:44 (ten years ago) link
lol prob not
