Who will win the Super Bowl 50?

[Hector]

From NFL to NBA, lol...

[Marvelmania]

Wilt Chamberlin is the greatest basketball player ever.

Call me when LeBron James scores 100 without dunking. Or when he averages 30 pts and 22 boards for his career.

Bill Russell has 11 titles.

Call me when LeBron has 12. Or even 4.

Bird and Magic transcended the game more than any duo in the history of any sport.

Call me when LeBron changes the way people talk about the NBA. Other than who he doesn't like or who he's having fired next.

He's not even top 15...

Woof.

Very well said. Lebron isn't close to what some of the older players were. Seriously look at what Doc J did. Some of those guys changed basketball forever not just in numbers.

Okay Hector, let's hear it... What drinks are you mixing for the Superbowl? I'm hosting so I'm not likely going to indulge myself...too much. Maybe a couple of Cabo shots to get some warm fuzzies for a base mood.

against who did Wilt score those 100 against? lol Kobe getting 80 a few years back was more impressive..Wilt dwarfed everyone , 75% of the nba at that time were scrubs

Yes Bill had 11 titles..in a what 10 team league? come on now how many titles does Robert Horry have? does that make him one of the greatest?

yes Magic was great no doubt..and what does everyone say about LBJ? He's a stronger ,bigger better version of Magic

Yes Steph Curry is great, best shooter yea for sure..But best player? don't think so.. I'd take LBJ, Durant, or russel westbrook before him if I had to pick.

I know people can't stand LeBron, i'm one of those now..he's a punk who thinks he's god.. But you can't deny his talents..He's taken teams full of scrubs to the finals a few times

[Hector]

If you take LeBron over Curry right now as a coach, you'd should be fired, come on bro...LeBron's best days are behind him.

If Durant and Westbrook are better than Curry...why can't those two, along with a solid supporting cast of Ibaka and Adams, two defensive minded bigs...not to mention Kanter and others...CAN'T WIN JACK SH_LAT???

Bro, Durant rather play with Curry, not Westbrook.

Westbrook is obviously a superior athlete than Curry...but he is NOT the game changer Curry is. Westbrook is nothing more than your energizer rabbit we have seen before (Iverson, Rose, etc)...but what Curry is doing has never seen before...he's changing the NBA before your very own eyes. Kids wannabe Curry, not Westbrook.

Curry can slow down with injuries and still be deadly. If Westbrook slows down, that's it for him, because that's his game.

...and for the love of God...do NOT dare bring in James Harden to this conversation...that dude's defense is horrendous...a ball hugger...not a team player at all...plus he chokes when it counts.

Maybe when Durant and Westbrook win a title, then we can talk, lol...

Start an NBA thread already.

This is about the Super Bowl.

What are you making to eat and drink on sunday?
Prediction on the final score?

Okay Hector, let's hear it... What drinks are you mixing for the Superbowl? I'm hosting so I'm not likely going to indulge myself...too much. Maybe a couple of Cabo shots to get some warm fuzzies for a base mood.

I'll be having some beer and Palomas.

The Margarita, contrary to popular believe, is not Mexico's favorite mixed drink. That distinction goes to the Paloma.



Tequila (that's a stock photo, I'll be using Cazadores Blanco) with Squirt (or any other grapefruit soda), lime...and salt (optional).

Man, they go down so smoothly, and are delicious, yum, lol.

I'll be ordering pizza...but while waiting on that, definitely chips and salsa, guacamole too.

I'm set...

[Hector]

Just took this pic, ready for some Palomas, baby...




Those are newly picked fresh seedless key limes from my tree, God...I love that tree...

Why was Kobe getting 81 more impressive? Because he scored 21 of those on 3 pointers that didn't exist when Wilt played?

Wilt dominated that game because no one could stop him. Kobe dominated because he took more than half of his teams total shots. So he dominated the ball. Great.

And 75% of the NBA now aren't scrubs? The NBA is a complete joke outside of maybe 1-2 players on half the teams.

Bill Russell was THE reason the C's won those 11 titles. He wasn't a bit player. So your Robert Horry comparison is a straw man argument. Would you question the validity of a title for LeBron this year with teams like Philly, Sac, Minny, NJ, etc in the league? The league mostly stinks.

Is James a great player? Sure. There have been lots of great players in the league, including the ABA. But he's not even close to being the greatest to ever play. I can name 25 players who were better. Some with many more titles and some with fewer than his two.

He does only have two, right? :-)

Love a good debate :-)

Tomorrow, Warriors vs Thunder.

Thunder should easily win, I mean...they have two of the best players today. The Warriors only have little skinny slow Curry, erratic streaky shooter Thompson...and utility man Green...those three are vastly inferior to the Thunder's thunderous Dynamic Duo of Durant and Westbrook.

Right, Damien?

[Hector]

PREDICTION TIME!!!!!!!!

I'm going for the upset...

Broncos 27, Panthers 24...

lol come on now....having 2 superstars doesn't make you the better team.. the Warriors starting 5 is one of the best put together teams I've ever seen.. they just mesh perfectly with each other

I have it 20-17 Denver
