Sure danger comes from all side for both teams and its obvious the Warriors are more of a defensive team than the Cavs. I feel there would be a lot of trey from the Cavs in this finals

The Cavs are shooting more 3-PPG in the playoffs than the Warriors 33.6 for Cavs Nd 31.3 for Warriirs and they’re making a higher percentage .435 for Cavs .389 for Warriors. This would be useful cause of Green's ability to lockdown an offensive player cause his ability on the defensive end cant be overlooked. Klay and Curry are both good shooter but you know who has been good in this playoffs. Korver has struggled and is only around 41% behind Deron and Shump.

LeBron, Irving,KD and Curry are all unstoppable. As far as offensive basketball goes, they are as good as it gets but in this situation, the Cavs have more fire power

Love- Green- Any headway Love can make against Green would be huge for the Cavs.

LeBron-KD- I dont have a problem here.

Irving-Curry- Irving needs to outplay Curry. Irving must win this matchup for the Cavs to have a chance.

JR-klay- klay number in playoffs has gone down from 24.7 to 14.4 PPG. Though JR has also been bad in playoffs but thats cause Irving and Lebron have been mind blowing and also in the first two series, JR's job was to guard the opponent's top scorer. So this shouldnt be a problem also
In other words, you're saying Warriors in 5? grin

Honey and lemon juice. The lemon will work on the black heads, while the honey will open your pores and soothe the skin. Wear mixture for five minutes and then wash off.

You should avoid medicated soaps as they're often too harsh on the skin. I use dudu osun and it works just fine. You could try it or any other soap recommended here.
My sister uses Lemon fresh body cream and dudu Osun soap. Her face is as smooth as baby's bottom.
Then again, we aren't prone to acne in my family.

Natural remedies are your best option so you don't aggravate the situation using all these chemical mixtures that react differently to various skin types, and spending a lot of money on things that won't work for you.


P.S Do what JainDoe said.

All the best.
You mean getting the fruits fresh? Wouldn't storage or preservation be a problem? Moreover, lemon might be hard to find in some places

Or is there any other way lemon can be gotten?

There is no need for long debates except for bad faith.

GSW is a way better team than the cavs, and it is obvious. GSW has almost the starting 5 of a US TEAM and Anyone believing here that this series is 50 - 50 situation is an absolute ignoramus or blind with bad faith.

HOWEVER, this does not mean or imply that GSW will win. Everything is possible in sports.
Lol

We won't buy this cheap point too. Because person fit enter US team no mean say he's better than another. Afterall, Lebron no dey US team. Love withdrew in last olympics. Tristan dey Canada team and Kyrie na consistent player for USA.

I hate to compare but the truth is LeBron is the best player of the modern era and no one come close, not even Kobe.

Warriors might not be able to handle what's coming their way. Draymond is the only player I believe is ready for battle with the cavs.

You are to choose a duo between
LeBron + Kyrie and

Even Cavs bench is more potent. You have Deron, Korver, Shumpert, Frye and you're still ruling out Cavs.

Hayward and Cousins are not SGs last I checked so his spot is not being contended with them.
All NBA team is not about positions. 2 people of the same position can be in an NBA team. Leonard and Bron occupy one team as well as Curry/IT and Harden/WB

Deandre is in there. Does that make him better than Cousins in top 15? Lol


Derozan, Beal and McCollum are numbers 1, 2, 2 scoring options to heavy Iso teams and Klay was number 3 yet their numbers don't far outclass his with less efficiency as well. When Klay became number 2 option in GSW (When KD got injured) Klay played substantially better than all those players listed above bar none.
It's nobody's business if he's number 3 or number 1. Last season, he did; this season, he didn't. That's that
And how do numbers tell the whole story?
Have his numbers deviated much from last season?
Love having more numbers than Draymond doesn't make him better. If we're all about numbers, we can start including Wiggins and Paul George above Hayward this season.


Butler did not have more impact than Klay whether on the moon or on earth. That is your Bulls' talking. Butler is the primary scoring option for his team and Klay was number 3 yet averaged about the same with him and eclipsed him totally defensively.
Defensively? Yes
Offensively? No

Butler was better in creating shots, passing and closing out games. He's sadly as inconsistent as Klay and both shouldn't even be in the all NBA team. I don't know why this argument is still going on
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Decale: 11:28am On May 27, 2017
Even if you want to replace Butler, there's Hayward, Cousins. Which one be Klay Thompson? undecided
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Decale:
Eruditor:
I don't know about top 10 players but on that all NBA team Klay and not Butler should have made that list.

As a Bulls fan you may not agree, but Klay was and is clearly better than Butler.
This season, they were both averages and badly inconsistent. However, Butler had more impact than Thompson.

Both are playing different positions. And I already wrote my all NBA team without including Butler or Klay. So, I do not understand where Butler came from

Klay wasn't even a top 3 SG individually this season. Players like Derozan, Beal and McCollum did better, all reproduced even this post season unlike Klay. Only when you check as a team, some people pip Klay.

You come to me last season and say Klay is a top 10, I might not argue. This season? Not even top 15....

If you make a top 10MVP ranking this season, will Klay Thompson be there? sad

You're a Warriors fan, so I expect sentimental debates from now on

fam i said star, or let me rephrase, superstar. I don't get you o. I am saying every star player lebron has played with is a better offensive player that pippen. Did he play with a perennial all star in his first years in cleveland? In 2015, did the NBA playoffs only included nba finals right away? or the conference games wasn't involved?
Oh. I see we're not talking about the same thing. I agree with yours

My only agreement stems from the fact that Lebron's assists are high cos he plays with superstars which isn't the reason.

Sorry for the misquote

Baba,

I would disagree with you on the embolden. Quality is a very important factor in stacking assist numbers because the most important person in the cycle of an assist is the finisher/ scorer.

That means, a good player can score a basket on a very bad pass, and give the passer an assist, in comparison to a bad finisher who may struggle to finish the cycle of scoring with a bad pass. See what i mean?
I understand your point.

But I didn't say high assist numbers had nothing to do with the quality of players. It doesn't contribute as much as you think.

A great passer will always find a way for his teammates to produce regardless of where he is. You can give multiple examples here

Another scenario is another passer whose assist numbers fall with stars in his lineup. This is where I tend to disagree with you. There is a whole more dribbling and isos come into play, the assist numbers start balancing out and usage rate drops. Most point guards tend to fall in here

Jordan was putting up triple doubles when his teammates were down, same with Kobe but they eventually got back to their style of play afterwards.

Lebron still puts up numbers with the same usage rate, different quality of players since his rookie season. Wall, Draymond, CP3, Rondo are good examples. That should be commended

Lol if LeBron scores the ball more, maybe he would have won more finals. By the way, you have the luxury to share the ball if you have Wade, bosh, love, and Kyrie. I will wait for the list Jordan had.
Does it really matter who he had in his team?

People have assists with brick players on their team. If I remember correctly, Lebron and Curry once averaged 8.6 assists a game back then when their players weren't all star caliber.

I don't think sharing ball has plenty to do with the kind of players you have.

While Kyrie appears to be clutcher than LBJ, he just seems to be a player that will put big numbers and lose games without LBJ.

Look at game 3 for instance, 4/6 from 3 29pts on the board but Cavs go on to lose the game because Bron had only 11. In game 4, for all Kyrie's heroics when LBJ sat due to foul trouble, Celts were still 10 up which was the same before Bron sat. This gives the impression that Kyrie can only do so much without Lebron.

The Ws and Ls without Lebron even add to this fact. When LBJ sits, Cavs lose but Bron can cope without Kyrie and co. He has already done it in a few games in this playoffs.

So what is the point to this? For a healthy Cavs to beat an equally healthy GSW team, Lebron has to play out of his mind even more so than he did last season. And I think that is highly unlikely.

The reasoning behind this is facile: If refs allow all the shoving and pushing of Klay and SC like they did last time. If they try to snuff out the 3pt shooting of Draymond. They are left with that 7foot conundrum in KD - A player already difficult to guard even when double-teamed.

There are other intricacies that go into this thought. Korver, Deron and JR Smith will be peppered by GSWs defense. KLove and TT are great rebounders and hustlers but their game depends on that of the main stars in LBJ and Kyrie who cannot iso the team into another ring. Shaun Livingston is hitting all his jumpers as well. A 6'7 guard who is going to be a matchup nightmare for any of Cavs guards.

Then, SC was clearly hurt last time out and has been playing significantly free this time around. Once he starts aggresively taking on the man infront of him, it will lead to double-teams that would keep exposing Cavs to multiple free shooters not named Harrison Barnes.

Anyways, the only thing that can plug all these holes is LBJ playing better than he did in last season's games 5, 6 and 7. It might be my GSW bias screaming, but I don't see that happening.
I remember you wrote something similar last year and then you guys blew a 3-1 lead

That's how Curry will read this one na and then the Warriors will blow a 3-0 lead

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

Samsung stole water resistance From SONY, iPhone also stole water resistance from SONY.
pls tell me how the s8 is better than the XZ premium
Lol

Firstly, you don't steal water resistance. You file patents for it under a court procedure and they are granted to the awardees. Sony did the same thing as Apple. It's fairly stupid to think Apple/Samsung stole it from Sony

Secondly, Sony wasn't the first phone that was water resistant; Casio was. The first android smartphones that were water resistant as a matter of fact were Samsung Galaxy Xcover and Motorola Defy before Sony did on the Acro S. Sony just implemented it first on their flagships before other companies

Lastly, S8 or XZ premium have strengths and weaknesses. So, picking one above the other is understandable based on preference in a phone. Samsung generally just edges them out with their accessories and software implementation and updates.

Display: S8 is better. XZ premium is a 1080p LCD device masked as 4K

Camera: This is subjective. However, I'd pick a phone I can manually adjust my exposure triangle and store in RAW. S8 does this but not XZ premium. Using auto on XZ in low light leaves less to be desired cos of its huge megapixels and average post processing algorithm.

Software: Subjective. S8 is feature rich while XZ is close to Vanilla. You pick what works for you

Battery: Subjective based on how you use it. Both are good in SOT. Playing videos however makes the XZ premium a battery hog cos of the 4K resolution. Still, it can be adjusted. So, the point is mute.


But accessories are what make S8 to me superior: Gear VR + controller, Gear S3, wireless charger, AKG bundled headphones, cases, etc etc

You pick what works for you or what you're invested in

they had to steal the water resistance IP68 of the Sony and then claimed that to be their "new" selling point, no one but die hard sony fans care about Sony.
Samsung didn't steal Water resistance from Sony. It's been on existence since 2005. Android phones like Motorola Defy and Samsung Xcover got it even before Sony did on their smartphones.

Did samung stop there tho....nah they tried everything they could to chase the screen resolution race people didn't even know that Sony started with 4k Screen res.
Again, Samsung isn't chasing 4K resolution. Resolution shouldn't matter unless you're using good VR, which renders 4K on Sony kinda useless. And also, 4K is limited to media content on those phones. So, it's still fairly useless

Samsung short comings remain that battery size, the awkward placement of fingerprint sensor and it's price. Some people would never justify that price no matter how hard they try.
Sony XZ premium is more expensive than S8
Samsung's 3000mAh is on par and better than most smartphones including the XZ premium

I'm sorry to burst your brain,the Samsung s8 is not using touchwiz anymore.they introduced a new ui.no matte ho had you try to make the s8 fast with a custom ROM you can't change it.a custom ROM is just a ui and nothing else.custom ROM has nothing with ram,or processor because they are embedded on th phine.so Samsung lags as hell.if you a Samsung fan,im sorry to tell you that phone is poo.and I expensive for nothing.they lack ram management. Apps loading faster means a lot,have u ever used .

This statement clearly shows your knowledge about softwares and vindicates this thread

I don't know but you should try another UI on S8 or at least get back to me when you use an S8 and not based on YouTube videos, then get back to me. And FYI, apps loading slower on a phone doesn't mean it lags.
