- Start date
They could if the team stay healthy.
I think they could play simple and smart which won't exert all they're energies. Use the whole roster is healthy and they could blues teams easily.
That lil Nigga didnt beg to get back in the game... FOH!
that's what the coach said broHe gotta show the lil man got heart and wanted to leave it on the court. Even tho we know Danny made that call. Danny ain't trying to have his trade bait fucked up even more.
Stevens is on social media... hes reading roasting and trying to protect that lil Nigga
He does and can, just not against the Cavs! LMAO!
Reporter asked him did Aldridge give him what he needed tonight he said 'Sure' with a stone face... The room was uncomfortable as fuck!
he was there for every bit of 20 seconds.......butt hurt and salty as fuck
My favorite coach of all time LOL Pop mean mugging everybody like cmon faggits.
He should be fined
id like to say putting david lee into that graphic is the exact reason i can't take these complaints seriously. he is not and would not have been a difference maker. just like tony parker wouldn't have who has a high score over the past 2 years against the warriors of 10 points. 10.
Its obvious that they don't care about home court or records, their main priority is staying healthy and being playoff ready... I agree with you about using more of their roster especially when it comes to Traveres but I still think they will keep doing what has worked and that is not go full tilt until the games count..
Another thing, the big difference between the Warriors and the Cavs is that the Cavs win by playing harder and faster, while the Warriors are more of a machine who can blow you away while on cruse control, in other words for the Cavs to win as many games as you are suggesting they have to be busting their tail game after game leading to a lot of wear and tear during the regular season to me I don't see that making too much sense especially at LeBrons age.
At first, I was like the Cavs just coasting through the regular season. But I got nervous near the end of the season when they still looked lackluster. Now, it's very clear they weren't putting in much effort during the regular season. Anyone who wondered whether Lebron and the Cavs could just 'flip a switch' has been proven wrong.
I think it was more to do with have the complete roster over anything....
These cats missed time due to injury over that stretch...

I don't know the exact date(I'm sure other clubs had these problems also) but not having a full practice since February...with adding new players should get stressed slightly more.
Lebron said, something to the idea of sweeping the first rd was the best thing for them as a team. It wasn't even about the rest it was the chance to practice as a whole team.
cant be rightthey really dont know what they are doing in the nba
Yup I both sweep...another 9 days off
shit is dumb as fuck; 3 days max!! but this is an example of the continuous scheduling issues that the nba has
League is trying to make sure we get two well rested healthy teams playing on a level playing field for the finals is all....cant be right
3 days is all that is needed!!!
You ever play major minutes deep into an NBA playoffs after a long regular season good brother
the problem is the finals dates need to be scheduled in advance and the Cavs and GS has fucked up the timeline by whipping everybody's ass is all
The players will tell you 7-9 days is too long; it fucks with their rhythm; Im sure the players would be fine on 3 days rest...You ever play major minutes deep into an NBA playoffs after a long regular season good brother
I would agree if that's the way the would be playing at the moment.
What we're seeing from them really reflects the ease that Golden State plays with. The dubs play with a sense of full knowledge of the system. The Cavs don't normally play that way, they showed in the past to do it but its not a given like the dubs. I think that had to come from Lue. He's been pretty on point this year, with trying new sets for a few minutes and storing it, try new packages and seeing what they could so together.....I meant dude close games with
Deron
Shum
Krover
Lebron
Fyre
That's does two things:
1.keep them energized and excited that lue trust them enough to close games with them!!!
2. Show the starters, Lue ain't scared to bench you if your messing up, which in a sense could help them if they start being complacent!!!
Mann let me stop before I type a essays like you and the E dude!!!

I wonder if that is fucking up the NBA money
Nah... them checks been cashed already. Thats how Mike Conley became the highest paid player ever. . If it remains an issue it can effect negotiations for next broadcast rights deal tho. In real time, only ones who bottomline may be effected are the tv partners that air this shit.
The bigger scheduling issue is broadcast time of these games... You have one game per weekend day and they dont come on until 9pm. Thats beyond stupid.. Especially in down years like this one where the games arent competitive. Every year i say this tho. It needs to go back to earlier weekend games. Certainly when there is only one being played.the problem is the finals dates need to be scheduled in advance and the Cavs and GS has fucked up the timeline by whipping everybody's ass is all
I would agree if but I'll have to go look at the dates if both conference would go 7 games to agree with you
Take a poll Bruh!
No way in hell a player would want less time off. Once you reach a certain level in your career, that rust shit goes out the window... Ask the Celtics about Game 1 against the Cavs!! @Beeiii, break it down for him Bruh!

On both counts, I'd be pissed to have a game played at 6pm my time to make things better on the other coast too. West coast gets just as fucked as we do behind this shit...

Well
bingothe problem is the finals dates need to be scheduled in advance and the Cavs and GS has fucked up the timeline by whipping everybody's ass is all
The west would get 4 days after after get the west title
While the east got 3 days after being crowned east champs
So it's not the NBA fault, now maybe they could answer the flexibly of the schedule but that would be very tricky.
Western Conference Series: Golden State leads San Antonio 3-0
*Game 7: San Antonio Spurs at Golden State Warriors on ESPN at 9:00 p.m. (Sun., May 28)
--------------------------------------
Eastern Conference Series: Cleveland leads Boston 2-0
*Game 7: Cleveland Cavaliers at Boston Celtics on TNT at 8:30 p.m. (Mon., May 29)
Youre not gonna flip a switch against the Warriors. LeBron bout to be 3-7 in the Finals.
