How is it stupid? You win you have a right to be cocky/arrogant period.

You really think that success in an athletic competition brings with it the inherant RIGHT to believe you are better than and talk down to others?

how about the clutch 3 Lebron hit vs the Pacers recently to send the game to OT? Does Lebron get any credit for that? nope..nobody even talks about it..it is just like the situation Romo is in..its a confirmation bias..nobody is going to be perfect all the time..when Lebron succeeds, nobody cares..when he fails..oh, its Lebron choking again..just like it is with Tony..

dumb

Nothing anybody does in the NBA regular season will ever matter. Ever.

As soon as Lebron wins a title and Finals MVP I'll be the first to give him credit.

I've never had a problem rooting for the Spurs when they werent playing Dallas, they are an organization that as done it right for many years...even if Timmah does look like a terrorist and Manu is the biggest flopper in the game. :grin:

See I respect them and they have the best basketball coach ever IMO. However I have a very hard time rooting for them. Ginoboli and his bald spot invented flopping.lol. Timmy with his palms up,"not me" and the french peter pan who is soft as a donut. Still they have been a great team and are run well.

with most people, i will accept this as sarcasm.....with you, i have no clue....i honestly believe that you feel this is true.

flopping has been around forever.....Rodman, Rivers, and Malone are the 3 biggest floppers of all-time.....while Divac is the most recognized flopper of all-time and considered to be the Flopmaster General.

For the Spurs, Manu and Horry were superb floppers, no doubt. One thing though, in the last couple of years, Manu has not flopped all that much. But in his younger days, he was a flopping machine. However, Mavs fans act like their players are innocent. Barrea, Dirk, and Terry flop with great proficiency. Dirk draws more fouls and falls to the ground more with zero contact than any player I have ever seen. I remember one game against the Spurs, he drew 3 fouls and wasn't touched 1 time. He shot 2 fade aways and fell down, the refs called the fouls on Bowen. Replay showed Bowen was at least a foot away both times. The other foul, Dirk ran over Josh Howard's back, fell down, and got to shoot 2 FTs.

Chris Paul is the best flopper in the NBA right now....he has turned it into an artform and brings great theatrics in his performance....The helicopter when Oberto fouled him is an abolute classic.

We all complain about flopping, but to be honest, it works. The NBA fosters such a play and rewards the flopper almost every time. Until the league takes a stance and punishes the flopper for flopping, then it will continue.

What are you talking about? They're not even the best team in the East right now. They couldn't even beat the Bulls without Derrick Rose. If they make it to the Finals they could easily be beaten by the Spurs, Lakers, Thunder, or even Dallas again.

I don't know how a guy who is accused of disappearing in 4th quarters of playoff games "turns a corner" by having a great regular season.
