Golden State Warrior vs Cleveland Cavs on TNT @ 8pm(Finals preview??? Vegas think so)

Re: Golden State Warrior vs Cleveland Cavs on TNT @ 8pm(Finals preview??? Vegas think

Everybody is saying that it was only LeBron but they fail to realize the Cavs had three people in double figures and their defense was key to the game..
 
Re: Golden State Warrior vs Cleveland Cavs on TNT @ 8pm(Finals preview??? Vegas think

you can tell from the start it was a showcase game for the cavs where james was allowed to shit on the spash brothers while everyone took a back seat...
For him to do that and still dominate goes to show, they warriors are not ready for a team like the cavs..

we shall see; im not sure gs will come out of the west, and im not anointing the cavs out of the east either; but i do think whomever comes from the west will beat the east team; albiet its between atl and cavs...

It's damn good with ball-dominant Kyrie and ball-dominant Lebron. He is as consistent has he can be on the offensive end without throwing the two superior offensive talents out of whack.

Would I like more efficiency from him? Of course, but what he is doing now is working. His effect is and will be Bosh-like(damn near same numbers and all-around impact).

And I agree, neither Bosh or Love is worth Wiggins long term, but they can help with rings short term.
Folks get caught up on video highlights and individual stats, failing to see how they play with in the team system and with the talent surrounding them.
Put it in perspective, Wiggins was playing well vs LeBron, last time they met, that is until the 4th quarter when the Cavs said play time is over.

I can see by the posts that some of you are not watching the game:lol::lol:...Dude GS is getting good looks through out the whole game, they just not hitting shots; Refs dont control that or them missing; But lets not make it seem like the game has been called evenly, it hasnt; Cavs have received all of the calls tonight and that happens, nothing new; happens all the time with different teams in the NBA; LBJ played great, no one else on the Cavs really did anything of significance; LBJ has been playing great since he came back though, hes great to watch...But Cavs aint winning the title this year, and I got dibs on anyone of you who wants to bet...

Cavs clearly gave up shots to other players to stop Curry and Thompson. Barnes and Green ain't beating nobody. A defensive game plan is what you witnessed.

I been saying that Memphis (if they can get scoring) and a healthy OKC can both beat them..

Del be tripping and falling all over the place like that all the time... But he hustles got them Rubio dna... But James got him back the other way, right after that..
 
Re: Golden State Warrior vs Cleveland Cavs on TNT @ 8pm(Finals preview??? Vegas think

really

Is the refs gonna be the excuse tonight? The Cavs just took the leagues best offense and slow choked it.

The Cavs stayed home on Curry and Thompson....they clearly had a plan and executed on it.

I see this nonsense pop up all the time. Oh so and so just missed shots....no kidding they missed shots...thats the fucking point.


GSW is still the better team IMO at this point....but the Cavs are slowly but surely becoming a very cohesive unit out on the perimeter.

Man it's been a while since a pg straight went off against the Cavs...
 
Re: Golden State Warrior vs Cleveland Cavs on TNT @ 8pm(Finals preview??? Vegas think

People are still trying to put the Cavs in the box they were in the first part of the season. They are not THAT team anymore. At this point, what we saw tonight was a comprehensive dismantling of the best team in the West by the Cavs. Curry was a non factor, Thompson got buckets when it was too late, but for the most part, they were shut down. The Cavs front office doesn't get enough credit for the masterful job they did filling holes with those trades. Needed a shooter, Jr., needed a defensive presence, Shump and size and defense with Timo, needed an enforcer type, Perkins.

They don't need Love to be a 25 and 15 guy anymore, and since the trades he has been playing his best ball of the season, JR is playing under control and getting at it on defense, Kyrie is playing a more team oriented style than at any point in his career, and LeBron is.... LeBron.

Cavs are a problem, and it seems they are gelling... Fun to watch!

Whats impressive about them is that they have players playing big with out the stats, and other players who you think didn't do much then when you look at the stats you see he scored more than your best player...
Irving scored more than anyone on the Warriors and Love had two less than their high man Curry, yet all people see is what LeBron did..

Well, you know how that is... Especially with Love, people will ALWAYS try to explain away his good play, and he has been playing well lately. When he lit up the Pistons, who with Drummond and Monroe, have a top 3-5 front court in the league, it was because they were still young, tonight, as great a game as LeBron had, the Cavs would have lost if it wasn't for the play of Love, Kyrie and the rest of the role players...

Damn shame, but Dude's are drowning in illogical arguments, and can't see it :smh:

Those guys are swayed by spectacular and fantastic and know nothing about winning ball, and playing for a team, not stats..
They love Wiggins and his spectacular play on one of the worst teams in the NBA and in their minds he would put up the very same numbers as the third of 4ths option on a team like the cavs..
Me give me players like T-Mo, Shumpert, JR, Thompson and Love to support LeBron and Irving, all day..

He is a primary jump shooter, if he drives to the lane you collapse on him like a regular player... But as far a double teaming a jump shooter, what is that supposed to do?

Cavs won but you don't know shit about Golden State. Curry is known for his great shooting but he's far from a primary jump shooter, which is what makes him so dangerous and arguably the best point in the game today and top of the list in MVP discussion.

The Golden State Warriors are the Oregon Ducks of the NBA.

Look James is primary a rim attacker, but he can also shoot form the outside... Curry is jump shooter first and everything 2nd... You can see how locked down was with a rim protector in the paint, and a tall athletic guy playing him one on one...
When ever you see one guy locking up LeBron one on one, his team beating him and their top scorer scoring double his amount, holla at me... It would never happen because in the word of Curry own coach, you can't stop that guy...
