Alright I’ll concede vegan is right. If fans were in the stands the Mavs would be eliminated by now.

Safe to say that he isn't struggling. Thought Leonard or George would be checking him more but I guess Doc is afraid of either getting in foul trouble. However if they can't check him without fouling then they really can't check him

He's doing just fine without that stupid diva b.itch. Like I predicted, Kyrie hasn't done shit post-LeBron. LeBron got to the finals without that dumbass.

I don't follow. Are you really arguing against homecourt?

Nope. Just pointing out that it's possible that's not the only factor that contributes to winning games.

If you want to debate the guy who said home court is the only factor that contributes to winning games then talk to him directly. Here's what he looks like:

You literally listed it as the only factor in why an otherwise close Game 1 would not be close. So that response doesn't hold water amigo.

That doesn't mean I think HC is the only factor. It's just the factor you can focus on the most since it's removed from the games these days. Teams are more or less on even footing when they play and it's making for some interesting gameplay/outcomes. There's no way to know for sure but I'd argue you might have slightly different playoff outcomes if all games were played on neutral sites. I don't think a 52-30 team in a standard NBA season is going to have a huge W/L drop off if they replayed the season on neutral courts, maybe +/- 3 games? I don't know, it's interesting to argue. But, and I feel strongly about this, I do believe you'd see different historical outcomes in playoff series if you redid everything on neutral sites.

Guy has only played in 1 playoff series post LeBron and Lebron had to suck every top player in the league's dick in order to have a relevant team the past 3 years.

There's no reason for Giannis to still be in the game up by 15 with a couple minutes left.
