Irving had no business playing that many minutes man. This injury is on whoever calls the shots on that bench at this point.

Or in gambling.
Really sucks about Kyrie. :/ Hopefully he can fully heal and come back even better.
It amazes me that Perk has been on so many high calibre teams over the years.

The only way the Love trade is bad is if he walks this Summer, otherwise all this series shows is how important Love is to that teams offense. Wiggins was a negative impact player on both sides of the ball, he wouldn't be the difference in this series.
The problem with the wiggins trade has always been Love's contract status, nothing else.

If the Cavs get swept and i'm not saying that its even likely but if they do then LBJ will regret coming to CLE.
I think long term lots of people were thinking it might not have been so smart to trade for Love.
It reminded me of my Pelicans chasing the win now by trading two lottery picks for Jrue Holliday. It really just didn't make sense and still doesnt from a long term perspective.

Good idea for us as Raptors fans. Wiggins going to the Wolves is a blessing. He will come home after not wanting to be part of mediocrity in Minnesota any longer.

So play Dellabedova???
More like gassed Lebron. He was tired. Cavs got outcoached. The Warriors ran Lebron into the ground.

Such a brave stance
Why the fuck would A.Wiggins come to Toronto when the FO has a history of being shit?
He'd be a Laker before a Raptor.

If Thompson gave his hat to Lebron, Lebron would look like Abe Lincoln.

Same reason Lebron went home, Cavs FO has been mediocre despite having generational talent for past decade when they had him. Raptors new management is competent. His family and friends that came to see him play in Toronto took 1/3 of the arena.check out Open Gym Wiggins is coming North.

The cavs were better with love on the bench all year. And they still made to the finals without him, so wiggins would have done nothing but help imo. No one can know for sure but it doesn't seem like a stretch.

Which channel? ESPN has Brizzle spinning the results.
Shout out to Tristan punking Draymond all game. The true DPOY was getting eaten alive out there.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
He wasn't a rookie or even just a good rookie, but he was rookie of the year.

Curry and Thompson are proving that set shot > jump shot.
They don't get tired from jumping all the time and it's so damn quick. Other great set shooters.....

Billups just said if Lebron had made that shot Irving would not have played OT and not gotten injured.

Shawn Marion going out this season losing to PHX type system. So fitting.

I hope so, but Tristan Thompson has been feasting on the boards all playoffs. He made Gibson, Noah, Horford and millsap look like kids.

Chauncey has a better record in the Finals than LeBron too.

Draymond will bounce back. He's going to have a game where he hits a bunch of threes too.

Kyrie, go get an MRI! with CLE this close to getting a chip they do not have your best interests at heart.

This is when hating Lebron goes to another level.
That kind of size and athleticism disadvantage is not going to evaporate. I like Green a lot, but he's going to have to face guard Thompson when the shot goes up and hope someone else grabs the board. He can't even make him work on the other end because Draymond has no offensive game if he can't outrun the other big down the floor.

lol god damn did the cavs just lose all their steam in OT. also bogut is not a good matchup for mozgov at all.
Hes gotta execute though. Pretty sloppy tonight. I have faith - just has to do what he's been doing all season
That's like saying if Lebron would have scored 100 then Kyrie wouldn't have needed to play and he wouldn't have gotten injured.

Mozgov had the game of his life. Doubt Bogut will let that happen again so easily.

He's out for the series...sucks for him and the Cavs. Thought it'd be GS in 6 before, now probably 4 (maybe 5).

Bogut is not a good matchup for tristan thompson either. I liked how GS flowed better with speights and ezeli.
