And look at game 3 how the cavs were allowed to be extra physically against Steph off the ball.. Mofos was literally grabbing him and shoving him.. That's a foul but GS has to know they not going to get those type of calls on the road
 
As long as Kyrie stay on point Jr be good. He'll take that pressure off Jr. Limit shumpert minutes till he stop trying to make highlights and focus on that defense. We got a series

Nigga be quiet.. JR is duck sauce.. He been duck sauce when he was on your team now all of a sudden according to you he good? Bruh
 
Love's offensive production has been booboo anyway. And whatever he produces, he more than gives away on the defensive end. Jefferson is a better matchup because he can defend. The Cavs won this game with defense.

Don't play the contrarian for the sake of being contrary. You already said that the Cavs shouldn't play a lineup with both Love and Irving on the floor. Love can just play with the second unit and/or run with the first unit when he's playing effectively.

The Cavs are going to win being lead by better defense. Love and Irving together is just too much to overcome.

Have love come off the bench before a I catch a fucking case downtown. Run with that works. Playoffs are about adjustments. Lue just lucked up into one. He's like the cat who accidentally discovered penicillin. With any fucking luck, maybe KL will earn his keep off the bench. At least with scoring and rebounding.

Watch...Jefferson is not the answer. Benching him for love is going to get the ran off the court

It works both ways.

Because look at game 2... The Warriors got away with a ton of fouls on their own home court. :yes:

Cavs made a lot of drives to the bucket and got hacked all the way to the rim most of the time.

Especially when you watch a replay of all the blocks Bogut had.... Cavs are getting killed by fouls that happen immediately BEFORE Bogut makes his block. :rolleyes:

He had like one 'clean block' on Jefferson's scoop layup under the rim... but the rest of his blocks are just fouls that were never called on his teammates before the offensive player reached him. :rolleyes:

The NBA is all about matchups. If Kerry comes out with that same starting lineup (Bogut at center) you come back with the same thing. If he changes the lineup and starts Green at center and with Iggy starting, then you might want to think about starting Love at the PF position again.

The Warriors already ran them off the court TWICE with Love starting, so your argument for Love makes no sense.

Also, you've already made the argument that Love and Irving can't play heavy minutes together. So you need to make your mind up.

GS has gotten away with a lot reaching, swatting, & poking these last two rounds. There were times last night, like when Livingston had both hands in Kyrie's back on a drive...where nothing gets called. They get to play uptempo on offense & hackfest defense, incredible.

If you let the Warriors play that kind of defense, they're going to be impossible to beat at home. I noticed it too. They let everything go in the interior. That doesn't impact the Warriors so much on the other end because they don't attack the basket as much as the Cavs.

So that's a huge advantage for the Warriors if the refs called the game loosely because the Warriors don't play great interior defense.. they play great man to man to keep you out of the lane... once you get in the lane, they're undersized...but if you're able to get your hands all over the player while they're shooting, you can neutralize a lot of shit. Cavs are struggling to finish because of all the contact PLUS that helps the Warriors get out in transition. Shit makes a huge difference in how the game plays out.

Most teams get away with stuff. There were plays last nite, the last play of the half where Delly actually escorted Curry up court like his prom date and no call. Most hime teams get home cooking, its been that way for decades... Most of the time the team thats the most hated is perceived as being the team that benefits the most from no calls... Thats the way the human mind works chief... :hmm:

Last night wasn't home cooking & Donovan pointed out several times last series the BS calls that were going the other way. If Phoenix was officiated like this, Nash would have a title.
 
Nigga there was a half where the Thunder only had 3 Ft attempts, all by KD to GS's 12. Put the cape away, them dudes are allowed to play a physical style of ball.
...Dude I didnt refer to you out of your name tho... Calm down... I said u were right Bruh, if Donovan, whos team lost a 3-1 lead feels that way then that MUST be the truth...

There was also an entire half in the ECF when the Raptors didnt take one FT so whats your point?

..and as far as this series. Curry shot his FIRST FT of the finals in game 3, but yeah, the refs are letting GS get away with shit and calling it tight on the Cavs... Da fuck was I thinking... :rolleyes:

As the video I quoted showed, there's fouls not being called.
 
@unknownsoldier

The Cavs have had 3 more fouls called on them the entire series, AND Cleveland has outshot them 61 to 46 in FT attempta so... But hey, its obvious how much GS is being favored by the refs so far so... i stand corrected :rolleyes:
 
As the video I quoted showed, there's fouls not being called.
There are ALWAYS fouls not being called for BOTH teams... Your contention that GS is the primary benefiary is.... Nevermind, hey, its not like anybody can pull out specific things to support the narrative they are trying to push and put it in a video tho... That NEVER happens :rolleyes:
 
It works both ways.

My homeboy was saying the same thing, that fouls wasn't being called. He thought love getting the elbow was the result of a non call

GS were outshot on FTs 24-10 in that game so... Not sure how much they got away with Bruh... No calls go both ways...

It was. Defenses obviously adjust their defense based on how the refs are calling it. The refs were letting them play so the Warriors just got more aggressive. He put an elbow to Love's head with no other traffic around and even that didn't get a foul called. That's how wide open the refs were calling the game. That impacts that team that depends more on getting into the lane.

The Cavs have to keep attacking though and hope that the refs just change the way they call it. Typically they tighten it up during the middle of a series and then just swallow the whistle during game 7...until the 4th.
 
Not going to shoot a lot of free throws when you're mainly shooting step back jumpers. Curry really isn't getting to the lane. His shot isn't falling. He should be driving more.
He penetrates too Dude stop it. Not shooting a lot and shooting NONE for 2 1/2 games are 2 different things. AND in the 2 games at GS the Cavs out shot them 44-20... More than doubles them up ON THE ROAD?!?!? Sorry Dude, that refs are favoring GS stuff has absolutely no legit leg to stand on... :hmm:
