Man, RIP to him. The greatest to ever do it in his sport in my opinion. Having just lost my pops about 4 weeks ago, i can not imagine what his families are going through right now. Pray they find solace in this difficult time.

Eruditor:


There are certain players you can't shut down. You can only force them to make tougher shots while you live with the consequence.

The consequences of such decision-making may mean they will have mismatches somewhere else that your team will pay for, or that the said players in question will make those tough shots and you'd just have to accept it.

When you say Klay and Steph combined for 4-13 from the 3pt line, you fail to admit that 8 of those 13 had them literally uncontested- which means the ball movement was good enough to see those players get a chance to shoot open 3s (which Lue tried to play against).

If Curry happens to miss those shots, it is not necessarily because of good defence, but because any one can be off rhythm on any day and thereby miss easy shots.

Now I am not trying to take anything away from your Cavs, but again you are making a lopsided argument, by saying Cavs played good D yet failing to give greater credit to GSW that played waaay better D and limited your cavs to just 89 points.

And making the case that you expected more from James and co, is like trying to turn the number 6 upside down in a bid to make it a 9 because it is flat and moot. Lebron and Kyrie atleast met their P/Os average ppg in that game. I don't know how much more they were expected to do, considering they played a team better than Pistons, Hawks and the Raptors.

As for the 3rd Quarter you keep harping on, I am sure you saw Klay and Steph miss easy 2s there. So will you not make the same argument that had those shots dropped, Cavs won't have cut down the lead? Or does it not make sense too, that the 4th Quarter you saw from GSW, was typical GSW?

LOL, the funniest part of everything you said is that you need Lebron to play long minutes. TBH with you, that is exactly what all GSW fans are praying for worldwide. We need him to burn out by game 3, so that the series can end in 5 or even 4, considering how he burnt out last year in the P/Os.

As for Klay and Steph not determining your teams loss or success, I guess we would have to wait for the next game, when they will shoot way better then they did in game 1. But I can already preempt your excuse: you will say GSW were expected to win game 2 because they were home and then you'ld tell us to wait for game 3.

I am waiting.

So Bob Myers says GSW might not resign with Iguodala next season, Harrison Barnes says he'd like to stay with the Warriors but it's out of his control after turning down $64M/4yrs mid-season. What the hell?? This off-season will be full of tension.

Skywalker5:

Turned down $64M. Damn.

What is painful is, he as well as 4 others earn more than Curry on that same team.

I feel for him because he is an asset in a way. But he can easily be replaced.

SmooshCHN:
True. I hope they keep him. Team core us necessary. First Alvey Gentry, David Lee, Luke Walton and Probably him and Iguodala.. I hope we get someone better if he decides to leave

Eruditor:


I love this pic. Do you know why? You picked the one part of the stat that favors Bron, and not the most important part.

Stat also shows that each time Bron lost game 1 to a team, he ended up losing the final.



Truth be told, I feel for the Cavs because they have put up a decent showing all season. The only problem is, just like OKC, they are playing against destiny.

The only guy in the last 47 years to hold all 4 grand slams simultaneously...

I feel terrible for Murray even though he is not my favorite tennis player. He won the first set with some master back hand strokes, however he lost composure and was slaughtered by Djokovic in the second and third sets before succumbing in the fourth. Murray needs more mental training than technique

True...

But then when you lose 5 of 7 grand slam finals and 13 of 15 ATP finals to the same person, you're his bïtch.

Nole has the best two handed backhand I've seen in the game, closest but by a mile is Wawrinka. And the way he return serves, his stamina, mental alertness...Boy
Put him with the scariest acer of all, Isner and he'll return 4 of 10.

Going to 6 straight grand slam finals ain't a normal something...
Winning 25 Master 1000 series titles ain't a normal something...
Breaking the $100 million mark ain't still a normal something...

Watch out Sampras and Nadal, he's coming. He might probably get to Federer in 3 years or less but Ooh Mpa knows he will.

He's kinging

Donlittle:
Warriors has to resign Iggy though. Just that simple
