Series Thread: NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavaliers

Ha, that was pretty awesome

Any truth to the rumor that it rivaled Mantle's shot that left the stadium?

What a crap-show of a first half. Refs come down hard on the W's, apparently feel bad about it and come down on the Cavs, and the W's have a double-digit lead at half. Problem is the players don't know how the game is being called. Just call it one way or another. W's have players that can grind and the Cavs have finesse players. Just come out from the get-go and call it one way or the other. The players will pick it up real quick and adjust. This is just a mockery.

The funny part of the Love situation, is that in 2 years, the guys who hate Lebron will still say "he needed Kyrie and Love to carry him to the finals and get him a ring in Cleveland"

I think Kevin Love gets a bad rap. He hasn't done anything so far(albeit with foul trouble)....but he has dominated his matchup with Draymond Green, something that I didn't think was possible

The pace slowed down noticeably in the second half of game 4. Will be interesting to see if that happens again. Needless to say, if GS scores 130 points, they will be champs.

Did Love miss the flight to Oakland?

Some people say Mantles' went 506, some say it was Folklore, much like Ruth pointing to his HR

Not sure if I would use the word dominate but Draymond been mediocre in this series

*Dominated his matchup with Draymond the entire series that is

I'm in a keeper dynasty league and I traded Aaron Judge for Blake Swihart before last season started.

He was absolutely awful last finals, too.

No he hasn't.

Love had 1 great game. Dray has taken a back seat offensively and been in foul trouble.

Crazy how that works isnt it.....

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

You all know that I'm no expert here, but I'm pretty sure the Cavs need to score more points.

 

[AlpacaWine]

Pedroia misses a walkoff HR by 2 feet. Ends up with a Fenway single.

True

Agreed 100%........His zero points is absolutely unacceptable......When he finishes with a meaningless 14 points in garbage time, it doesnt mean shit

 

[Kold]

No he hasn't.

Love had 1 great game. Dray has taken a back seat offensively and been in foul trouble.

Totally subjective, but I thought he only had 1 bad game so far

 

[DJ Fieri]

Fultz is shooting for MVP in his rookie season....

 

[Kold]

15 and 21 the 1st game, 27 and 7 the 2nd game, game 3 was the bad game, and 23, 5, and 3 in game 4
