Warriors Bench is probably better than most of the EC teams that qualified.

When Lebron saw Steph's stat line Lyfe Jennings' Must Be Nice started playing in his head.
Mozgov is a free agent this offseason. Cavs can't trade him.

Kyrie on Bogut: The Quest to Hide Kyrie
I think it would be a mistake to try and hide Kyrie. Sic him on Curry, no switches. Offensively skilled, athletic stars that don't play defense have the ability to do so, no exceptions. He's going to get lost on screens and all the other stuff the Warriors conventionally do, but he should be ok 1 on 1.
Love on the other hand, I don't know if there's any saving that.

We had someone earlier suggesting that the cavs should do it lol
Funny enough before the game tonight started, I actually suggested that the Cavs should put Iriving on Barnes since Barnes has been a complete ghost so you can hide him there. As well as Love on Bogut.
...well back to the drawing board on that quest lol.

Someone needs to photoshop iggy going super Saiyan here
Yea, it's dumb as fuck and just reminds me of this:
No, If Lebron couldn't get past the teams in the East, he'd be criticized a lot more.

Lebron might actually go 2-5 in the finals. That is truly sad, but not as sad as his broken jumper. He doesn't just miss, his shots are just bricks.
Still think he is a lifer. Heat still gotta make a decision whether Bosh will be player next year and I don't think they want to take that risk. I would love Whiteside at LA, specially with the young core, but I gotta be realistic.
Best defensive 3s in the league, how far down the list do we have to go before we get to Iggy?

Paul George
Lebron(2 years ago, amirite lol?)
This new Durant?
Iguodala!
Watch Iggy get Finals MVP again.
A 6th man getting Finals MVP twice would be awesome.
He's the modern day Jerry West.

Iggy is lebron's kryptonite
And it never really felt like the Cavs were in the game.
I think the NBA Champion was decided in the last series against OKC
Eastern conference remains trash
Warriors sweep in two.
This won't even get past Sunday. Trust me, my hot takes are the hottest!
Ive stated multiple times that kyrie is not a bad defender, not that he is a great defender. Read my posts

They switch Kyrie off Curry because they are scared he will get injured again
Kyrie is basically glass
Max Barnes ready to get paid $$$$$$

Not sure how you fix this kind of defense lapses in the middle of a finals.

I truly can't remember the Warriors getting looks like these in the entire OKC series.

You're right he's a terrible defender.

No help. No coach. Dan Gilbert. Air-conditioning wasn't strong enough at Oracle.

Lue should go
Kyrie
JR
LeBron
Love
Fyre
Next game, just try to out gun the warriors by 3's to start
Maybe they get lucky Steph X Klay are cold to start the game

your gameplan is to get lucky? LOLOL
i didn't watch the game, but did the Cavs bother playing defense or did they just try to out-chuck the warriors?

Problem is he can't do anything on offense other than catch and shoot. Steph just looked off the entire night regardless of his defender, though Lebron looked like the toughest.
ProvenDeadly
Member
They played decent on ball defense sometimes but they gave up something like 900 backdoors
What's wonderful about this is that it kind of looks like love is trying to comfort him lmao
wait really?
So lebron got stripped/swatted more times than he even put up a shot against iguodala?

JR Smith and Shumpert just disappear and do nothing in these finals getting to the point where I can't fault Melo for nothing about not getting them more involved.
Shumpert got paid 40 mil for what exactly? He makes me wonder if the Raps should trade Ross with the contract he is on.

He is a bad defender though, as evidenced by the fact that the Cavs tried to hide him every opportunity they could. You don't do that with someone who's even remotely competent.
James Jones lol
