LeBron Dogpile will yield NBA Finals trip

by

Yeah, I know. The Nets are down 0-2. But it’s not like the Jazz being down 0-2.

And when the smoke finally clears on the NBA Eastern Conference finals, the Nets will be champs of the East developmental leauge.

The LeBron dogpile is a little bit embarassing. For you, not LeBron.
Damned if he does, damned if he don’t — LeBron is crucified for both passing off and taking the clutch shot.

What is being missed here, you dogpiling twits, is that Jersey had legitimate chances to win BOTH of those games — on the road — against the East’s best. It should be 1-1 and could easily be 2-0 Jersey.

In a game of bouncing balls, all you need is a chance. When you’re on the road in the Conference finals, any single digit deficit in the final minute is a victory of sorts. Pyrrhic, perhaps. But a victory nonetheless.

While the Blame Gang challenges the 22-year-old LeBron’s guile, grit and game over two 3-point losses, they also plant the seeds of change. If the games are that close in Detroit, what are the NJ home court crazies going to bring to the next two?

Trouble. Big MoTown trouble, that’s what. Jersey in 7.
He passed.
