All joking aside, I’ll say this. Cleveland will NOT be able to slow down GS offensively, too many options. The key for them is to play more team oriented ball and less ISO ball. If you look at the games, they make their runs when they are moving the ball. That’s why a lot of LeBron’s assists are in spurts. While it may get oohhhs and ahhhs, Kyrie is killing them with all that damn dribbling. Even if he makes a highlight reel play, the rest of the team is chilling and there is no movement. THEN he shoots a tough shot and if he misses, the Warriors are off to the races.

GS is blowing out the Cavs in a couple of 3-4 minute spurts per game. If they move the ball more, and stop with all the ISO stuff, they will get more contributions from other players, and I think the other players will be more into the game on the defensive end. When LeBron is dribbling, he’s dribbling to set someone up most of the time, when Kyrie is taking 10 seconds dribbling, he’s trying to get a shot and GS knows it, converges on him, and when he misses they are either in a position to get the rebound or block his shot…


The Cavs are not THIS much worse than GS, not by a long shot. They just play stupid as hell and sometimes…
 
Cavs will win game 3 though. NBA not havin dis shit. Refs have already ben terrible. They'll make sure Cavs get game 3.

Yep. Like i said during 1st Quarter yesterday. Kyrie hijacks the offense too quick and plays absolutely stupid ball. They had a early 3 point lead when Klay hit a quick deep ball, kyrie then comes down and jacks a quick horrible shot for no reason... then comes down again on the iso bullshit and turns the ball over and created a fast break for GS.. Shit like that opens the flood gates quick. And with a stacked team like GSW you cant play catch up with. Then you have two starters on the Cavs who give them absolutely nothing (TT, JR). They are just completely outclassed and outmatched against these guys. That being said, Cavs can win game 3 if they control the clock, hit shots, and get contribution from the role players.

True that's why I said this is on Lue...
They should've worked on this during the offseason...

A complete system overhaul the roster consist of catch and shoot shooters....
No ball movement limits they're strengths by 60%(I'm just throwing out numbers). To be honest this why I pretty always side with the dubs against the Cavs. I pick the Cavs to win just because I'm a Lebron fan, but I do know being logical ain't in they're favor.

I think they can be competitive in THIS series if they play the right way. They are playing into GS hands right now, making it easy for them. Ball movement, less ISO and a concerted effort to rebounding and defense will do that. I joke LeBron for KD giving him work but honestly you can see hes frustrated and tired.

Kyrie is a great offensive player, but he may be one of the dumbest players in the league BBall IQ wise. Sometimes, if you have to do all that dribbling the best play is to move the ball, cause the defense to shift and catch them off balance. If you look at a lot of his tough shots, there are 2-3 defenders around him. After the 3rd bounce they pretty much start to collapse knowing hes going to shoot.

Lue has always been overrated in my opinion and at this point hes getting exposed for having no control over his team, bad offense and defense schemes and ridiculous rotations....
 
I know if Lebron had never went and played with 2 in their prime allstars in 2010 and went to 4 straight finals with them winning 2 of them and then went back to Cleveland with Kyrie and made them trade Wiggins for Kevin Love, get shooters, cry for more help, make the Cavs sign everybody salary cap be damned and hire the coach of his liking KD wouldn't have made the move to Golden State

When you see THE BEST PLAYER in the NBA making sure all his ducks are in a row for the best chance to win....what are the rest of the players in the league to do but try and do the same?

KD one upped Lebron in his fuckery cuz he went to the basically still in tact 73-9 Warriors but man let's not act like a precendent wasn't already set here

Get real

Nah.. You dont know this. You "think" this.

Only if you believe one is like the other. There arent. Ive already stated how and why.. Continue to pretend otherwise tho.

No nigga, YOU get real. Bron originally left because the best player his team gave him in 7 years was Boobie Gibson. He went to a lottery team. KD left a franchise that had Russ, Harden, Ibaka... One that had him as a annual contender with a fellow top 5-10 player on roster. Not remotely like what Bron doing.

You are smart enough to know how cause and effect works and I don't "think" that I KNOW that for sure fam

I don't like the KD move either but this is the NBA 2017 and this is Lebrons era he gotta eat this one

We let them off the hook defensively for too many stretches during the games.
Entire 1st half we barely ran the offense and you can't do that against a cavs team just can't
They can score and if they don't have to defend multiple passes they can defend
It's reversed
The spurs because of communication can defend a motion offense seamless but because of foot speed can't really defend pick and roll
The cavs have the foot speed to defend pick and roll but not the patience to defend the motion consistently

We got cute too much in the 1st 3 quarters and draymond really played garbage on both ends. Too emotional and too many ill advised passes.
If your big is sealing so you have a layup don't go to the rim then try to drop it off to him as the defender is guarding him he did that 3 times and it turned into breaks for the cavs

We gotta do way better

No. You dont know bro. You think. And you're wrong... KD woulda been convinced to make that move regardless.. The shit was largely orchestrated by his Jew manager and RocNation and Nike.. Now Im telling you what I KNOW for sure... Brons move to miami had zero to do with that shit... And comparing his current team to that stacked deck in the bay is laughable. And we totally disagree on this being comparable to Brons miami move.. Bron had 7 years and Boobie Gibson and joined a lottery team. KD had two MVP caliber players, Ibaka, was a annual contender and then joined a 73 win title team that kicked his ass... Im actually tired typing that same shit over and over to cats who are too obtuse to admit the difference. Im done with it.
We gotta do way better
:roflmao:
 
Did I? I dont recall that..i noted how the team won without him tho... But lets say i did say it... show me the part where i said Kyrie and Love were better.
You were implying Draymond.. Was better than Curry

So, unless you're saying he's also better than Kyrie and Love as well...
 
Thats the rationale they giving us out here. :lol:

From this nigga....

I said 2 months ago the niggas calling KD a bitch during the season were full of shit and would be pulling for him in the Finals. They pretended like they was mad but seeing Bron lose is what they want. :yes:

I also said once Bron got down in the Finals the "Fuck Bron, no excuses, Ima clown" talk would surface. :yes:

Now all we need is a former Bulls player or coach to drop a quote about LeBron the next day or so. :yes:
 
Cats forget that the Warriors were killing the Cavs in the series the first two games and then the Cavs won game 3 and were down 3-1. Shit wasn't that fun until game 5 and it was a forgone conclusion that the Warriors would win
What does that have to do with now?

Sometimes? They play stupid all the time, its just covered up by the greatness of Lebron. He makes those dudes look a lot better than they are.
 
Love and Kyrie are 2 of the worst #2 and #3s you can have. Cavs would be better if those 2 were replaced with Westbrook and Kawhi Leonard
