Hopefully they can close out in Cleveland

 

[Hyperactivity]

Hey, I missed the 1st half, could someone explain what the hell happened with Mozgov?

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Lebron still hasn't won a finals game without Wade being in the building.

 

[offtopic]

Dude, the guy is like playing for three players.

You can say what you want about this series but he has a documented history of checking out in the 4th quarter in big games.

 

[DoktorEvil]

Lebron needs a miracle.

One that isn't Matt Dellavedova.

 

[Gully State]

Good game dubs ....one more win...

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Cleveland sports is cursed, because a team with less overall talent and depth is losing a Finals series to a team that won 67 games and has had no major injuries to any of its rotation players in the last two months

I know but the build up and tease to ultimately lose on home court. It will give substance to the curse.

 

[Kastrioti]

This is going to end in Cleveland, because Cleveland sports is cursed. Cleveland losing the title on home court. It is incredibly sad.

Not going to happen.

Cleveland takes Game 6, gets 3 day rest for Fridays Game 7 and Lebron wins it in epic fashion.

Believe.

They were up 2-1 at one point and the series isn't even over yet. Maybe you should hold off on the excuses and explanation until it's actually over?

You guys need to cool down with this it's over it's over talk on both ends.

 

[Whitman's Ghost]

Are you saying I'm salty? I don't give a shit tbh. Just watching for the entertainment.

This was finally an MVP caliber game from him. From start to finish for the most part. Disagree?

No, I'm talking for Cavs players. Curry was a problem in the second quarter. Things were really close. But when Curry puts it on the last couple quarters, esp the 4th, it gets harder to keep up when you are the Cavs.

I'm not sure about Finals MVP performance for Curry? He needs to keep that crazy passing down when the games are super close and not chuck up crazy threes when the games are super close. Then sure I have no problem with him.

But yeah 4th quarter sure he is the MVP there in multiple games.

 

[Champagne]

so heres a pure theoretical question. could GS do the same this series if Thompson, Green and... I guess Bogut were injured?

nope

swap curry and james on their respective teams and curry gets blown out by 30 each game

 

[diffusionx]

Hey, I missed the 1st half, could someone explain what the hell happened with Mozgov?

The Cavs went small so Mozgov didn't play much.

 

[FZZ]

LeBron 40-14-11 and Cavs still get blew out ouch

1 day rest for the Cavs too

Which is bullshit.

Who managed the series? Two day break between games 1 & 2 and then one day breaks until you go back to Golden State? Then another one day break back at Cleveland. The fuck.

 

[eBay Huckster]

I know but the build up and tease to ultimately lose on home court. It will give substance to the curse.

I'd only believe in a curse if they lost after going up 3-0, that's all I'm gonna say on this front

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

nope

swap curry and james on their respective teams and curry gets blown out by 30 each game

yea I feel the same way. which is a testament to Lebron's greatness

 

[Icewear Vezzo]

Lmaooooo so what's the point of bringing it up if it's irrelevant to this series

 

[jmizzal]

Hopefully they can close out in Cleveland

I would love that, i'm sick of hearing about Cleveland needs a title and that city, I dont care about them lol my city needs a championship too

 

[gcubed]

The answer is having other players other than James step up in the fourth.

JR isn't, TT isn't, Deli did once I guess, Mozgov too.

Not even gonna mention Shumpert.

They don't have a bench, they will never show up in the fourth because they are exhausted. The only way they won 2 was by bringing huge leads into the 4th and almost blew a 20pt lead in one game.

This is over in Cleveland because they have no legs left. If the warriors are within 3 going into the 4th the game is already over

 

[RellyRell28]

Lol at saying it's gonna end in Cleveland. Keep projecting GAF.

 

[kaiju]

One more win, Dubs.

ONE MORE

LeBron decided that efficient, high percentage shooting, awesome defense and great rebounding was taking away some of his stats so he told Blatt to have him sit.

 

[...Scatter...]

As a person who dislikes the Lebron bandwagon I would feel really bad for him if I didn't remember all the dancing, selfie taking, "who said we're the underdogs" bs he was doing before they started falling apart.

 

[Stat Flow]

Curry is surrounded by a bunch of fine ass women.

 

[Syphon Filter]

nope

swap curry and james on their respective teams and curry gets blown out by 30 each game

How are you feeling if i may ask again

 

[Jigolo]

Not going to happen.

Cleveland takes Game 6, gets 3 day rest for Fridays Game 7 and Lebron wins it in epic fashion.

Believe.

Fucking praying for my favorite player

 

[GamerSoul]

LeBron doing it all but it just ain't enough. I wouldn't be mad if he was awarded the mvp.

 

[CSX]

It's insane how lebron is putting ridiculous numbers and is in a losing situation. Normally when you got a guy getting big time triple doubles, your team would be the winner.

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

1 quarter with a healthy team.

Took him long enough being the MVP and all.

Yeah, 37 shots on 23 attempts versus Lebron's 40 on 34 performance. He played all night.

 

[bigmit3737]

I hope next year we see a healthy Cavs team (kyrie love) and Warriors in the finals.

 

[eBay Huckster]

They were up 2-1 at one point and the series isn't even over yet. Maybe you should hold off on the excuses and explanation until it's actually over?

You guys need to cool down with this it's over it's over talk on both ends.

I'm just saying I don't believe in a sports curse, bruh, I realize Cleveland still has a very small chance of fuckballing two more games

 

[offtopic]

Lmaooooo so what's the point of bringing it up if it's irrelevant to this series

Because it is happening again, justifications on whether or not he has to carry his team this time aside.

 

[Redd]

Just don't see where the Cavs are gonna get some extra offense. Warriors in 6.

 

[Ryaaan14]

I'm telling u, that white girl hexed Lebron

I've rewatched the clip hundreds of times and it gets clearer and clearer

 

[Whitman's Ghost]

It's true, the guy is easily hateable. And that is about that. I don't particularly like him but I respect his game a lot.

Watching Champagne loose his shit is awesome.

He doesn't have that though

[thehypocrite]

Gg to the dubs.

Great job by the NBA refs. Way to toe the company line.

 

[Champagne]

How are you feeling if i may ask again

solid

work in the morning so that blows

mistaking me for a cavs fan again i see

 

[Icewear Vezzo]

Yeah, 37 shots on 23 attempts versus Lebron's 40 on 34 performance. He played all night.

Lmao lebron is definitely out playing curry this series that's not even debatable

 

[victreeb3l]

1 more game...

 

[TTG]

How can Iggy be good at 3's and mid range but suck at free throws

9 missed points 0_o

He's not good at either of those. Shooting 35% from 3 for the season, every one of those wide open. It's one of those things, the system and splash bros eating up so much attention of defenses creates that impression. Same goes for Green.

But enough of apocryphal GS prowess, back to the real deal. Chef Curry outgunned Lebron for the first time all series, how about that?

 

[Hyperactivity]

The Cavs went small so Mozgov didn't play much.

Whyyyyyy!!

 

[gcubed]

Lmao lebron is definitely out playing curry this series that's not even debatable

Of course he is, he doesn't have a choice

 

[Jonm1010]

Russell Westbrook effect. Except Lebron legit doesnt have anyone else to help him whereas Russell just loves fuckball when he has the opportunity.

 

[UnObtainium17]

Dwade saw the trend of cavs winning when he shows up now hes like.. nah espn im busy.

 

[Danthrax]

He usually does in the 4th quarter of critical games.

yep, he blows when he's needed

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

I'm telling u, that white girl hexed Lebron

lmfaooo

Looks like Lebron could use a Witcher!

The amount of salt in this thread is a lot...even for NBA GAF...
