Kyrie the real clutch player for the Cavs
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 3:34am On May 24, 2017
what a luxury lebron has, he isn't just a player that can catch and shoot. You can just put the ball in his hands and watch him go to work. That's the beautiful part about him. knowing lebron does not even have to handle the ball. I wonder if Jordan or Kobe ever had that luxury

I now know why Bron needed K.Love and Kyrie to win the finals last season......

His patience, and focus on contact reminds me of L. Bell of the P. Steelers.

The celtics played well, but uncle drew went off. But, listen the cavs flaws showed the last two games. When they are playing a team that moves the ball well, they struggle. The other teams they played against were really a one on one kinda team i believe. But celtics have been moving the ball since IT went out, and cleveland has struggled, although they closed out the game well today.

I am just saying, which team is a better mover of the ball, with better players than GSW?
Re: The NBA Begins by birdman(m): 4:02am On May 24, 2017
character win for the cavs. Down 16 with celtics playing loose and all shots falling (even bank shots), cavs found a way to win. Lebron's performance was not great, but he stuck with it. Even though he didnt get the superstar calls and got fouled repeatedly, he still willed himself to a decent game.

I like this kind of win because it forces the cavs to dig deep mentally. LBJ needs this kind of situations to stay humble, focused and ready.

you cant judge this game like that imo. It was more a mental breakdown for cavs than anything the celtics did ball movement wise (just like celtics mental breakdown in game 2 made cavs look better than they were). Celtics had nothing to loose, so they just played easy and let the 3s fly. Rim opened up and they had lots of second looks and good bounces. They would have beaten any other team in the league not named warriors. If you are a cavs coach, you have to accept "ugly" games like this. There are some games where everything just goes the other teams way. If you still win that type of game, you are special. Hats off to uncle drew

see above, lol. Kyrie is the star of this game no doubt. Just referencing the lebron haters coming out of the woodwork. Let me get some pesticide tongue
Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 4:30am On May 24, 2017
Please let's all agree for once that there isn't any genuine fan of the Cavs on this thread.. Like Damn!! You can't show up when you lost by 1pt until after 24hrs, even when you pull a win, you can't even shout out uncle Drew.. Come on!! Kyrie about to have a back spasm from carrying the Cavs..

Walahi na that Kyrie I fear pass. That boy is fearless and arguably the best finisher and closer in the league.

In terms of pure offense no M.J never had that luxury, Kobe certainly didn't after Shaq left

call me out by name na, bros. I was here, didnt have anything to post. abi is that a crime? shey we are monitoring post counts now to determine who is who.
my lbj fandom goes back a decade plus, from when spurs swept the cavs, to bullyings and beating by celtics and pistons, to mavs stealing one. I stayed loyal through sweet victory and (very) painful defeat. So let me ask you: How long have you been following warriors?

It's logical Kyrie should carry them this game since Bron has been doing that all playoffs.

If you told me you were a Cavs fan I'd argue.. I always thought you were the Celtics or just you just had dislike for the Warriors makes your shout out LeBron (not Cavs) cheesy

Na Lola and Co I dey shade. At least they should show up when they lose.

Even the thread has been soft. If it's to mention "Blew 3-1 lead" you'll see them like ant on sugar.

I see as u take add offensively. Well done dia. I gave kyrie credit. I even said earlier this year that he will carry the team more and lbj take a back seat...look it up. I just know that your kyrie hype is not genuine. But we accept it...may Kyrie become better than kobe sef. Ameen!

Guy I added it from the beginning and this one is not even beef talk. Kyrie at 24 is dropping 41 pts in an NBA final and taking title winning shots. We know Pippen's strengths and he was never an elite scorer, go and look up his NBA finals record. Not even close! Back seat you say? All man know say Lebron liver dey always fail am for those critical points of the game so Kyrie almost a decade younger has to take over. Lol a guy drafted 8 years after him

Lmao. Kobe had 3 titles already at 23. Kyrie road still far but he has potential

I cant argue this part lol. In fact, I think if Klay had not made the "hurt feelings" comment last year, Lebron and the cavs would have folded in game 5!
But he is much more confident than he used to be. Still ways to go to though....maybe a workout with kobe this summer tongue
