Series Thread: Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Finals Thread

You can lol it all you want, but as much as I dislike Lebron, he's damn near averaging a triple double with 40 ppg.

Pretty embarrising I know lol

Lebron making his case for the GOAT. Curry making his case for goat. Funny how its easier to make shots and plays when down 20. Barring something surprising happenning, Cavs in 5 or 6.

LOL i guess people don't watch the end of games or 4th Q. yes I know he hit a 3. I was happy to see him finally hit a shot. I will say this his only weakness for not being one of the GOAT is how is plays down the stretch. If he was lights out or took over He would be right in talks because he does a lot of other great things and his talent is awesome. This is the one thing holding him back and a couple more championships.

Well for GS. Curry got heated up and Lee was great. I expect him to play more in this series

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

yeah, but honestly, the W's BETTER find their friggin' hearts...or this is a done deal...

they'll have a REAL hard time living this one down...

Warriors need A road win.
They aren't losing another home game.

 

[purguy12]

Congrats Cavs fans. Another great win. On to Thursday. Lets see if Cavs can put the nail in the coffin. 1 problem LBj has now if they blow this it will not look good. Game 3 winner of a 1-1 series tie wins 87% of the time.

 

[gohusk]

Dude your team just got beat by a short white Australian dude

Really? The guy who was able to make shots when he had his defender scrambling back after doubling LeBron is what decided the game? That's what happened? He played his role very well but he didn't beat the W's.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Play of the game definitely was Delly making that off-balance jumper and 3 point play. They were only up 1 and GS had all momentum.

Clutch.

Lebron also made clutch free throws down the stretch

 

[Ojb81]

No way u are nuts. Nothing to take away from LBJ but Della for sure. What he did down the stretch saved this team. LBJ not a great shooting night(14-34) had an overall good game and it was nice to see him hit that 3 but Della back to back games saved this team.

My MVP is Della. LBJ a very close 2nd.

Lol kidding me?? Um, no. Dellavadova has been excellent, but if Lebron continues to put up at least 39 per, aint NO ONE ELSE getting that MVP, believe that

BronBron's gonna get his, but Delly, etc...?

 

[Across The Field]

The difference is Curry's team is loaded with scores whereas LBJ doesn't exactly have that luxury.

Oh?

 

[Vitamike]

It's surreal to see Cleveland kick ass at something. Kudos, to the whole damn town.

You must not know Cleveland fan very well...

They have all been there at the threshold of a Championship many times in this drought.

For the closer they get, the closer to heartache.

None of the lifelong sufferers will call this until it is actually over...

 

[wildturkey]

Looked to me like the bulk of Curry's woes were mental. The Dubs got down 20 and he basically said "Fuck it. We're gonna lose. Ima just play". Once he stopped forcing it, he looked like the old Steph and ripped off a bunch of shots. Whatever it is, he needs to play with that same attitude from tip in game 4. He forced things too much till that point.

I like GS going with Lee. I'd probably consider starting him next game or at least playing him 20+ mins. His lack of defense won't kill you with what the Cavs do and GS desperately needs his offense. Green and Barnes are choking dogs right now. Hell, Green is bordering on unplayable. He's happier arguing calls than guarding anyone. And how many failed attempts is it gonna take before he realizes he can't dunk over Mozgov? Lee needs to play more. Barnes or Green need to sit. I'd sit Green. At least Barnes can maybe get out of his shooting funk and stretch the floor.

Lebron is fucking great.

 

[Shanemansj13]

What I dont understand is why down the stretch Delly was on Iggy and Shump was on Curry. Why take him off of Curry when he was playing good?
Was he tired? Lol

Not over till the fat lady sings. This is still a long series!

 

[Across The Field]

Cleveland has dominated this series. In 3 games, over 150 minutes, I'd bet the amount of minutes GS has led is around 30.

As I said a while ago: If this Cavs team was healthy, this series would be a sweep.

 

[Retroram52]

If Cleveland wins, may be they'll have a co-MVP. LBJ and Dellavedova.

Lebron is fucking great.

They need Iggy over Barnes and Lee over Green or Bogut in the starting lineup.

By the time they get to the stretch, he has already run the triple crown.

He's had to carry this bunch for quite some time now, which is exactly what he didn't think he'd have to do.

You expect him to be fresh and 'lights out' at the ends of these games?

His overall play has been exceptional.

 

[Hambombs]

So Cleveland just won the championshIP. ITS A LOCK

 

[Retroram52]

See everyone Thursday.
