Kyrie didn't play that badly though. Feels like Delly either give up too much size or too much length to a number of Warriors.

Actually feel the part of the game where TT was in for Love was Cleveland's best opportunity.

Mediocre offense with WOAT defense is pretty bad IMO

I like having Love's ability to post so it isn't as easy to switch everything.

More mins for Delly/Shump is definitely a must tho.

At least happy for Livingston. What a story and an awesome dude. 20 points on 10 shots in the NBA finals covering for Curry who completely sucked and WILed it up all night.
You seem quite bitter towards Curry. Huge Bron fan who looks for opportunities to criticize Curry or something?

I actually think Cleveland played pretty well on defense. I mean they got guys shooting who they wanted to... they just made everything.

Offensively their spacing looked atrocious--seems like an easy fix but I would have figured they do that at halftime.

Are you suggesting Steph didn't completely suck tonight?

Because Steph completely sucked tonight.

heh. I don't think we would've beaten GS, but man it sucks we didn't get to try (even tho the rest of the basketball world won, WCF was obv epic).

i think more shump minutes is the best move. looks like he would do the best on livingston and could guard curry. think the trapping curry plan was ok? im not sure. barnes, iggy are ok shooters. not sure they should be 'giving' iggy the 3 point shot so cleanly. i mean play off him some, but hes not some absurd speedster and your defense isnt so bad that a wide open iggy 3 is better than a random sequence

Not very concerned about Curry's shooting but he was very careless and turnover prone tonight.

Nothing is over of course etc etc but if GSW wins this series Cavs will kick themselves for not taking advantage of the splash bro's worst game of the season.

Do I really need "an opportunity" to criticize Curry when he scored 11 points on 15 shots with 5 TOs and garbage body language all game?


Steph still the best player in the league (yep, currently >>> LBJ) but he stunk tonight

They should be giving Iggy/Dray that shot all day. I mean theoretically their offense with those two shooting will never make up for Cleveland's offense... which was really disappointing. I can't put my finger on why and it was a great gameplan, but their spacing was just horrible.

Maybe it's Iggy on Bron, but there were several times that they forced a switch that was much more favorable only to bail GSW out with a pull-up.

Kyrie is fun when he gets it going, but he can be infuriating when he tries to do his Kobe impression.

Well, I guess I'm freerolling Thayer on my Warriors v. Cavs sweep bet. Can't say that I am shocked. This game didn't feel particularly competitive. At no time did it feel like CLE was going to step up and win.

btw, entertaining the idea that Curry wins a second ring this year, and doesn't win the finals MVP again. How's that in terms of GOAT equity? Better or worse than flat out losing?

There were a few possessions in which Lebron had Curry one on one and either passed off or shot a 20 footer. Pretty surprised by that.

Also, Curry played pretty good D tonight.

Seems like GOAT equity and RANGZ are correlated so he could prob have the rest of the games like this one and the extra ring would mean more in the long run

He's underrated as a defender, I heard

they should be giving dray that shot, but i saw a stat that iggy had one of the highest field goal percentages on uncontested looks.

yeah something felt weird about cavs offense.

Nope..suggesting that those comments were going beyond pointing that out IMO, seemed more personal to me. I don't think he WILed it up all night. I think he ran bad to shoot the % he did, that Cleveland deserves some credit for their D, and that he wasn't really needed at all in the 4th with how the game went.
