    Do people ever watch players like John wall or Drose and Look at the success of LeBron and see how lucky he’s had it? Like realistically he’s been able to dodge a prime PG, a prime Dwight, a Prime Drose and a Prime John wall who all suffered from injuries that made his finals run in the east so much easier. Just imagine if none of them got hurt. The NBA would be crazy

Those two PG you've mentioned could only lead to Lebron having chasedown block highlights even at their prime.

      The noise level during that 26-0 run was epic. Some Celtics fans sitting in front of me mocked my loud analysis prior to that, but that 26-0 run sent them home early. In my opinion, win or loss, playoff tickets are too expensive to justify leaving early.

BUT the bar was packed cause of Celtics and Wizards... Personally I didn't think I was gonna make too much cause rain = nobody comes out to drink (most of the time). Then John Wall hits that game winner... My manager was shook. Other bartenders that don't even watch basketball exploded with emotions along with security guards. I personally lost it too and of course the whole bar erupted... And You could feel the vibes in all of DC... GAME 7! Yeah the Wizards lost the series but they sure put up one hell of a fight. Plus that night Wall hit that game winner... I made double of what I normally make in tips... Sure they are in the bottom of the standings today but I won't forget that shot EVER and moment.

    As a Wiz fan that Game 2 L hurt the worst. I really felt like that one was 'the one that got away'. Even when John got the win in Game 6 with the huge shot, in the back of my mind I suspected we weren't gonna win in Boston. It's funny because even though Boston was by and far the better team, the Wizards and Celtics matched up very well with each other. Every game between them that season was entertaining.
