It's finals curry


When has that ever been something good for GSW?

this meme needs to die lol

 

[B.O.O.M]

Lol no one all year said the Cavs D was good. You're the only one that came at us with the "elite defense" comment

He makes it up.

Yeah that's what I figured

lmao

 

[ZeroRay]

Could be way worse for the Cavs right now.

Remember, the Warriors led by 7 in Game 7 last year.

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

Warriors need to not let up if they want to win. Pull their signature 3rd ring ko and wrap it in ribbion in next 12.

Cavs need to play better. Force open shot to Klay and break his shooting offense confidence and then dominate at the other end.

Any last score predictions? Sticking to 110-90 gsw.

 

[neptunes]

Korver needs to get hot, or the Cavs are toast.

Dubs are smarter than that to give him any room.

 

[friskykillface]

Warriors are playing like shit too, that's the scary thing.

 

[Mory Dunz]

All streams are down right now... This is the one time I regret not paying for cable.

Get a friend who has a spectrum account. That's what I used to do NBC Sports and ESPN. You just login

 

[The Greek Freak]

Plus klay Thompson has been absolutely terrible since KD joined

Hell Thompson hasn't looked happy since KD joined

Thompson had almost identical stats to last year.

Gtfo of here with your I've watched 3 games all season bullshit.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Lead only being 8 is a huge win for the Cavs. They just played the worst defensive half I remember in the Finals and they turned the ball over like mad men. Bad news is Draymond, Curry and Klay all had a really bad half offensively,

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

It's halftime - Nas

 

[Syphon Filter]

lol What exactly have they figured out? Warriors should be up 15+. They aren't really playing well on the offensive end.

cavs arent playing good either though.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Warriors are combining their adrenaline rush for revenge and rust of being 9 days off on offense. Some of the shots they missed are just stupid easy.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Could be way worse for the Cavs right now.

Remember, the Warriors led by 7 in Game 7 last year.

They didn't have KD last year though.

 

[Galactic Barret]

It's finals curry


When has that ever been something good for GSW? He's still missing tons of shots, he's 5-13.


Plus klay Thompson has been absolutely terrible since KD joined

Gotta check a shot chart, but I'm willing to guess most of those are missed layups.

And Slay can be in a post-season slump all he wants as long as he keeps that D strong.

Edit: Yeah, 2-5 from three. Missing 2 pointers, I can live with. 6A, 2 steals, 0 TOs. I'm extremely comfortable with that.

 

[mashoutposse]

Warriors are toying with the Cavs.

 

[Miracle]

Warriors haven't really been playing that great either.

Klay is useless and they have missed a thousand layups. Even Durant has missed a handful of gimmies, he should have 32+ pts right now.

 

[mjp2417]

Kover has been bad all playoffs

He was lights out against Toronto

 

[Syphon Filter]

Lead only being 8 is a huge win for the Cavs. They just played the worst defensive half I remember in the Finals and they turned the ball over like mad men. Bad news is Draymond, Curry and Klay all had a really bad half offensively,

curry is known to do bad in the finals and klay has been bad all playoffs.

 

[Darkness Unleashed]

I guess it could have been worse, MUCH worse. The match is great though, despite the sloppiness, Cavs gotta play harder.

 

[Tom Penny]

Honestly to me is simply does GS have brains enough to ride their best players 40+ minutes a night. They are getting a zillion days of rest per game. It's the Finals. Out talent the other team as many minutes as possible. It really isn't that complicated.

 

[Brinbe]

This is without Klay and Draymond contributing on O. Dubs will be fine.

Cavs getting everything they can from their stars and it isn't enough.

 

[ViciousDS]

Thompson had almost identical stats to last year.

Gtfo of here with your I've watched 3 games all season bullshit.

Regular season don't mean shit, and what's the point of watching the regular season when these two teams are finals guaranteed.

Gtfo thinking klay has been good. He has been garbage all playoffs

 

[FZZ]

Thoughts are basically they should be down more going by how awful Cavs are playing


Fucking hell TT GRAB SOME BOARDS

AND KORVER HIT SHOTS YOU ARE ON THIS TEAM FOR ONE REASON IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE A WEAPON

 

[ZeroRay]

They didn't have KD last year though.

KD a bitch tho

Look, I just want a good series OK.

 

[cb1115]

JVG wasn't kidding man sheesh

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Lol no one all year said the Cavs D was good. You're the only one that came at us with the "elite defense" comment

Deron Williams, Kyrie, and Frye aren't, but Korver, Shumpert (shooter?), JR, and Love are good to great on D

Okay pal.

 

[Cooter]

cavs arent playing good either though.

Warriors are missing uncontested gimmies. Most of Cavs shot attempts are difficult shots because th Warriors actually play championship level defense.

 

[Shamrock7r]

ugh how I wish we had Chuck and crew for half time

 

[Syphon Filter]

This is without Klay and Draymond contributing on O. Dubs will be fine.

Cavs getting everything they can from their stars and it isn't enough.

klay has been off the entire playoffs though. love barely did anything along with kyrie.

 

[Ric Flair]

This is the game to steal if Cleveland can just get their shit together. Golden State is rusty and missing shots, stop turning the ball over and make your open shots. Who knows, may steal one out of the gate

 

[GalacticToast]

JVG wasn't kidding man sheesh

Proof that hand tattos are ugly even on the most beautiful people

 

[VeeP]

So far. I'm talking about throughout​ the careers. I have no problem admitting I was wrong.



Roll harder fam. Peyton was trash and carried. Curry folded last year. Although he played better in 2015 than Peyton did for either of his free rings.

Your not wrong about last year. And maybe this year you'll be right again. So far he's playing decent.

But look at his movement and quickness this year compared to last year. Last year players like TT and Love locked him down, this year he's gotten past them multiple times.

And even if his shot isn't falling that great, he's playing D, getting assists, doing well on screens, etc. More than one way to contribute.

 

[The Greek Freak]

Regular season don't mean shit, and what's the point of watching the regular season when these two teams are finals guaranteed.

Gtfo thinking klay has been good. He has been garbage all playoffs

Klay could go 0-10 every game and still be a huge positive because the defense is NOT going to leave him and he's great on D so you are talking nonsense like someone who doesn't watch anything.

 

[Xplatformer]

Imagine if Klay wasn't useless.

He's the best wing defender on the team. What are you going on about.

 

[Line_HTX]

JVG wasn't kidding man sheesh

What did Van Gundy say?

 

[Mory Dunz]

Wait who did KD make slide on the floor on that whiff?

 

[Cooter]

JVG wasn't kidding man sheesh

My Queen

 

[Lionel Richie]

curry is known to do bad in the finals and klay has been bad all playoffs.

Klay is having a bad post-season but Curry was actually pretty good in the last 2 Finals. If the Cavs strategy involves him shooting like shit it's not going to work.

 

[Surfinn]

Is it just me or did they partially fix ESPN watch? Seems more stable now

 

[Baroquemantic]

JVG wasn't kidding man sheesh

Too much of a distraction.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

This is without Klay and Draymond contributing on O. Dubs will be fine.

Cavs getting everything they can from their stars and it isn't enough.

Cavs don't get much outside of Lebron either.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Tons of turnovers
Matador defense KD dunks
Basically all LeBron with a bit of Kyrie
TT doing absolutely nothing
Down 8.

It's definitely winnable, they could also get blown out if the Warriors decide to make layups.

 

[Farsi]

Lebron has 7 TOs? Holy shit

 

[Brinbe]

klay has been off the entire playoffs though. love barely did anything along with kyrie.

WHAT? Kyrie has been playing to his usual 30 ppg level and Bron is on pace for like 40. It just looks like nothing because they're playing a better team now.

And guys like Smith/Shump are getting exposed

 

[PadWarrior]

Wait who did KD make slide on the floor on that whiff?

Lebron.

 

[davidwhangchoi]

Lebron has 7 TOs? Holy shit

he's going for a triple double

[BlackGhost]

Okay pal.

You found one comment, get out of here. You've been running the "Cavs elite D" thing all year.



Hyper we need to talk.

 

[VeeP]

Honestly to me is simply does GS have brains enough to ride their best players 40+ minutes a night. They are getting a zillion days of rest per game. It's the Finals. Out talent the other team as many minutes as possible. It really isn't that complicated.

Do they have the stamina for it tho? Running up and down the court, playing D, players getting physical, etc all wear you down. Golden State has the bench depth. This isn't the Wizards, use the bench when you can.

 

[Surfinn]

What did Van Gundy say?

Lmao he was like RIHANNA JUST WALKED BY as LeBron threw it down
