Underrated part of series: Warriors centers feasting on easy looks vs Cavaliers defensive breakdowns.
JaVale: 13/16 FG
Jordan Bell: 8/12 FG
Kevon Looney: 4/5 FG
The three combined: 25/33 FG

By design. At least you have a chance then. You dont want curry/klay to be 25/33

SmooshCHN:
they should've stuck to him in this game. They'd have had a bit of chance.

Nah. Wouldnt matter. Warriors studied lebron deep. They were in the lanes almost every time he passed the ball. They did their homework. What hood did was make up for a soft kevin love

SmooshCHN:
The Cavs played themselves.. They should've stuck to Rodney Hood..

Nah, he was garbage most of the playoffs. Warriors deserved this win

Well played. We gon watch possibly the kings last cavs game for sho

After all those crazy shots, misses a gimme. Lol

Hardetayour:
Bad shooting night from Klay and Steph.

All the help from Cavs for LeBron.

This is replay of game 3 last season

No its not. The mqtchups this game are way too different. Dont look at the stats. The chess match on defense this game is crazy. On both sides

I loooove games like this.

Have to give the cavs credit. They withstood the 3rd q run

Roland17:
Take that out of this joint!!!!

Sir you too? No love for a fellow eastern conference team? Choii

Hardetayour:
This same thing happened Game 3 last season and GSW won at the end. I'm still chill.

Historian

Hardetayour:
Why is this place dry

Tension

SmooshCHN:
Come on man!! We dey watch the same NBA??
The rules changed like over 2yrs now. First, LeBron didn't establish his position before KD gathered the ball. You can't take a charge If an attacker already gathered the ball before you set your feets even if you're outside the restricted area.. Bron hadn't set his feets.
Secondly, players and coaches have the right to ask for a replay during the last 2 mins of any game and the refs can change the call but they first have to make a call on the floor before review (2 refs had different calls).
That was why everyone was complaining about Oladipo goal tending because the refs were supposed to look at it when Oladipo and his coaches asked for replay. Same when the ball was out of bound and they gave it to the Pacers. The NBA came and said it was a goal tend and also Cavs ball on the out of bound play. You can ask for a replay in the last 2mins. It's not rigging or scripting.

Refs can change the rule if they find out they made the wrong call. Except if you guys don't want them to review calls.
Brother, you've been hurt since Game 7 and you no dey hide am at all. E pain you gaan oo. Anyways we get it. The enemy of your enemy is your friend. Take blood tonic for now

The general rule in the nfl and nba is that if a call was made while ball was in play, further review can only overturn it in case of a clear cut mistake. The fact that you have refs on both sides means it wasnt clear cut. The call on the play should have stood.

This is more than blood tonic bros Whenever people rightly or wrongly feel system is not transparent, it hurts the game in the long run. These types of mistakes are easy to avoid. So easy that when they happen, people like Eruditor will believe there is a conspiracy

NictisZorander:
I dont even know if i can watch the rest of the series with this kind of demoralizing conclusion. If i wanted to watch scripted professional sports i would have subscribed to the WWE network. Life isnt fair but at least i can choose not to watch this farce anymore. SMH

But you realize at least 1 of the rings Kobe had with Lakers was cooked? Check the WCF series against Kings to see how bad it was.

Which is why I follow players who are successful outside basketball. The nba can do whatever they want. But still Lebron is a legit superstar not only on the court, but in his community. To me that is ultimate success.

But I hear you. What is the motivation to watch if you cant trust the rules will be reasonably fair?

NictisZorander:

Robbery!

This what was convinced the home cooking was deliberate. To change that call from charge to block, you have to see something egregious on the replay monitor. I could not believe the nba could be that blatant. If this was the nfl, refs are getting sacked.

Bottom line, life aint fair. It is what it is. We move on

A40:
We were here in 2016 when Steph and Klay were being gored especially in Cleveland. Ehn that time nobody talk.

Homecooking is part of basketball. Accept this one like that

Ok. I go chop am like that. At least im not JR. Brother man cant be feeling too good this morning. U squandered the kings 51 pts. How u wan take show up for team practice today

Smooshchn, mo ri e o. I am praying for u lol

NictisZorander:
I swear you have no idea how painful this is. A team having all the advantages in the world, and then they have the league on their side? Fvcking hell! Calling it a night too.

I have no respect for these guys. This was a hatch job. Period. Any true bball fan can see what happened tonite. I have 0 respect for the warriors. Shameless...

Im done with this ish. Congrats to the warriors on another championship

Another "mistake". Clean strip called a foul

Ewuro4:
It’s okay ... OT

No sis, its not ok. We shoulda won by now. These refs are openly distorting the game. Sickening

Roland17:
JR Smith is the definition of the word "BUM"

Talk about IQ

I tell u

SmooshCHN:
Let go of the hurt Man.. You should be fishing not hating.

Changed to a block. Like i said...

Cavs up 1. Refs have to plan and see what they can do

BarthramLestat:
Refs here to bail the warriors out.WTF? You have four friggin all-stars and then the refs on your side this is embarrassing!

I wonder. Why are we even playing ifcrefs are going to be the 6th man on the court

It was a good run. Now we have to endure warriors fans pride and crap for the next year. Esp the bandwagoners, who are usually the most annoying. Even though that pride almost cost the warriors. 2 fouls in a minute and klay was still feeling cool. Smh.

Aight then. We will be back. Good basketball by both teams anyhow. Warriors were the more seasoned team. On to the finals!

BarthramLestat:
This game is absolutely 100% rigged. Ten points stolen from harden just to push a warriors Vs Cavs part 4 well we don't want it.

I tell you. Blatant ish

No cp3. Make i begin cry already

SmooshCHN:
whether you're a billionaire or a peasant, it's not an achievement. Still had nothing to do with Kobe and MJ.. It's not a competition and neither should it be a comparison. Doing what men are naturally supposed to do or have been doing for a million years isn't an achievement. It's no knock on those who do well and those who fail at it.

See dis man forming pastor. I can jus picture it. Smooshchn with 100mill in d bank, turning down womens advances everywhere

Roland17:
Bron would taunt Jordan if he dunked on him during his rookie season.

True. Which is why i hated him rookie season

[quote author=donlittle25 post=67944063][/quote]U no well lol. Whick kin pic be dat

SIRcumalot:
So true and am not even trying to be magnanimous.
This Tatum guy and his just a rookie!!
If I sound a bit starstruck this is my first real look at the guy.
Mark Jackson said even when Hayward and Kyrie comeback he might be the 2nd best player on the team. No be slip of tongue o.

One small issue with Tatum. NBA is more than just skill. Remember westbrook and durants early years? Among wade, melo snd lebron melo shone the brightest initially. Yet see where we are now. Tatum has a loooong way to go. And there are half a dozen other rookie stars just as good in the league

donlittle25:
cause he beat a team led by horford and a rookie?

Folks, even if you dont really like Lebron, enjoy this.

Because we dont know the next time this kind of talent level will be in the league. Once Lebron slows down and retires, we may never see this kind of greatness for a long time.

A reporter was saying earlier today, how when MJ retired it took so long to find a comparable talent. Folks, enjoy these moments. We are witnesses

BarthramLestat:
The east has officially become a cakewalk! Stephen A, Skip bayless and co. on suicide watch!

Skip is having nightmares tonite. I can see sharpe grinning
