What a strange Game 7. Game 5 played out exactly how you would have expected if the Cavs were to win in Oracle in an elimination game, with LeBron and Kyrie simply being too good individually. But the Warriors outside of Draymond simply never showed up tonight. You kept waiting for it to happen and it just didn't. Kyrie had a great game and that last 3 was the shot of the series, but it's hard to find another Cav who you would say had a great game. LeBron's stat line is gaudy and that block on Iggy was one of the greatest defensive plays I've ever seen given the situation, but he was pretty mediocre all night.

The Lebron haters always go Ghost when he wins. They stuck around a bit with that OKC ring and complained. But the second one they vanished.

Kevin love had a great game. Not sure if the stats will show it but he was damn good. That one on one defense the end was just insane. He ate curry up one on one. Just terrific.
Absolutely. That was thing I was so happy to see. Guys who'd been liabilities at times all coming up huge. Love, Shump, and J.R. each had big game changing plays. J.R. played smart and in control, Love played great defense, Shump made a 4 point play, and Tristan Thompson made his free throws and made a couple nice shots. They all shored up their weaknesses for the most important game of their careers. Also I never thought maybe the most important and incredible plays in his career would be a run down block. And Kyrie with the clutch shot! Dude's becom8ng a legit superstar.

And that drama when James went down with 10 seconds left and a 3 point lead against the best 3 point shooters in history... wow, just an amazing game!

So the question now is what do you do with Kevin Love?

Love sucks against Golden State because of bad matchups. He played well in the playoffs before this series and was their 2nd best player in the regular season.

Cavs are champions now. I doubt they change up their roster because of another team, especially when you aren't going to get full dollar
 
Bam Bam said the thread was too toxic so he wasn't going to be here. Someone needs to Jordan his avatar

He said that yet still kept posting. Gave out bullshit stats like home teams dont lose game 7s, warriors havent lost 3 in a row all year and other nonsense

What an amazing preemptive excuse that was.

They probably would, but which one is harder to pull off? When can I expect a team to go 74-8? The NBA season is long, arduous and boring and to keep that sort of excellence going on every night is very very impressive to me. The Warriors have to travel like 40,000 miles in a season and play back to back games or 3 games in 4 days.

It's ridiculous how much shit these teams have to go through just to have it all not matter come playoff time. It's dumb. If the regular season is not going to matter in the long run, why play it? It's only making the playoffs worse when you have these teams pretty much crawling towards the finish line.

I don't expect any team to chase that record anymore given what just happened to these Warriors.

That's stupid. They play for position. Remember the Spurs were right with them until the end. Home court advantage is huge.
 
I think you trade love

If Ainge gifts you the #3 pick , Sully and Bradley for Love X Shump you take it instantly

You just say "thanks for the help love but we are going in a different direction"

LBJ is immortal status now (along with MJ), he can literally do anything he wants, go to any team he wants, fire any coach he doesnt want
