NBA Finals 2016-2017 - Golden State wins NBA title 4-1 vs Cleveland Cavaliers...great series!!!

[RoadRage]

refs were fucking horrible

This was a bad call for the CAvs but what about that brush three point foul gift given to Durant, or the Green punch to the head that wasn't a flagrant yet Love touch to the head a flagrant, yet Green landing on the Cavs player not... Then there was the clear path foul that wasn't called, Green should have been ejected, it got to the point where Cavs fans was just laughing because the refs was trying their best to fix the game, but failed..

 

[RUDY RAYYY MO]

Punk ass cavs fans

why they sitting on an unmade bed?

 

[KingTaharqa]

My social media so quiet you can hear a roach fart. It really is true, when LeBron wins, cats souls be hurt. They feel cheated. They feel robbed. Hoodwinked. Thats why HE MUST LOSE. Its some posters from the first 3 games that didnt even bother posting last night that would have had the Cavs lost. And others like that CAC dtownsfinest and TimRock that checked out early.

 

[BDR]

they could have overcome that. they got the lead down to 13 points 3 different times in the 3rd and 4th quarter with plenty of time left
they just did not get any stops on simple offense. none. offensively they were fine. they weren't fluid but they put up 113 and everybody just played decent.
defensively was the problem. so yes it took them out of the flow yes it was some fuck shit but if they could get some got damn stops on simple shit then it would have been a tighter game

and getting stops isn't blocking shots. it's not giving up weak offensive rebounds and diving for loose balls there's a long rebound and 3 warriors are standing around watching the ball and a cav comes and collects it. those are the game right there. not aggressive on defense. that's the game right there. they did not play with intensity and that is on the fucking coach. he did not stress shit.

Bills every time Dubs made a run that shit was squashed with the whistles.. the eyes don't lie

I mean these mofos didn't know wether to eject Green or not.. refs lost all control of this game, blowing the whistle every time Cavs drove every time.. GS drive to the basket no call.. obvious back court on kyrie no call. Shit was stink from the 1st quarter and the fact that happened it allowed the Cavs to be more aggressive on the offensive boards.. Thompson had 3 mover the back rebs and no call..

GS need to come out Monday night and knock these niggas out early

 

[BDR]

I should be shocked if the Cavs can get another home game but would be dope if they do.. just to get a good series

No doubt but the league seriously need to stay out of it and let both teams play and not be on some blatant fuck shit with the whistle to give one team a 20 pt fuckin cushion in the first quarter.. it was no reason for that shit, hell they could have spread it out the entire game to make it no look obvious

 

[Mask]

Man so fouls were missed but damn I don't know how Zaza & MoufStayWideOpen finished that game...


That elbow to the chin...should be a two if lil kev was a 1 after blocking the ball...

If the cavs was steady attacking then if say oh talk might have a pernt...but let's been honest....that backcourt was that fucking bad when it looked like it was hit by a warriors player vs going to the replay and not calling a flagrant...


It kinda seems like the cavs players would have more questions than the warriors players...

The cavs took some serious contact last night...

That's was during the game wit Zaza and green

Talk about that first quarter tho lol

Cavs attacked and the dubs reached vs moving they feet...

Cavs had energy and forced the paced...man TT had two offensive rebounds in the first....that shit is unheard of.

Seem like the dubs thought the cavs would lay down

I thought that initially but then thought who would fixing the game benefit? The longer the series goes the more money EVERYONE will make.

Fam that's bs and you know it.. dubs played the exact defense they played the first 3 games

[Complex]

Cavs played a perfect game

Lebron and Kyrie of course

Love did good
Thompson did good
JR Smith did good

They shot over 50% from three

 

[Chitownheadbusa]

Best game out the 4 finals games, imho, was game 3. Very competitive on both sides. Both teams came out and balled hard in that one. That was a game that the Cavs shouldve actually won, but per usual, they fucked themselves with bs defense and iso/heroball offense toward the end.

I picked the Cavs to win one at home, then lose in 5 or 6 after that first win. So theyre on the right track.

This series shouldve been tied at this point (which would shocked me). But like I mentioned before, the Cavs are idiots and always find a way to lose.

Finals will be over after the next game. Cavs will get blown out. That means one good Finals game out of 5. I guess thats good, considering the circumstances.

Early congrats to GS

I love how your crazy ass plays both sides.

Cleveland loses and you do the self deprecating weirdo bullshit you've been doing for the past year

Cleveland wins and you do the passive aggressive humble brag passive aggressive bitch shit

I find it hard to believe you're a grown man. You're some new millennial breed of bitch boy

Good call refs

The acting

CLEVELAND -- A fan with close ties to Cavaliers star LeBron James was relocated from his courtside seat to elsewhere in Quicken Loans Arena after yelling at the Golden State bench and specifically Warriors forward Matt Barnes during Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night.

Todd Leebow was escorted from his seat by security officers in the third quarter. It came moments after an on-court pileup involving Zaza Pachulia, Iman Shumpert and Kyle Korver with 1:10 left in the quarter. Pachulia and Shumpert were called for technical fouls.

During the official review, Leebow and Barnes -- who was on Golden State's bench -- began jawing.
Leebow frequently sits in courtside seats next to James' friends and business partners. For Game 4, he was sitting with James' agent, Rich Paul, and business partner Maverick Carter.

He is the son of Dennis Leebow, a wealthy Cleveland businessman, who was ejected from courtside seats in an Eastern Conference finals game last year.

He was relocated

They probably brought him up in the box seats

I wonder what he said...I'm sure it was a Fish joke

Vanessa, I find it hard to believe a grown man is so deeply invested into sneakers as you are. Straight nigga shit. Its time to grow up bitch and be a man. Take your Jordan and Foam money and get some gators!

 

[4 Dimensional]

I need one more fuckery game from the refs to make a good series. Basketball can't end yet and I was highly entertained last night with all the drama.

After that, then the dubs can take this win to Cleveland in game 6. Just one more fuckery game like last night.

This crazy fool said some bama ass gators. We can tell you never dressed business casual much less in a shirt and tie for a career. Are you going to tell me I need to get some penny loafers next week?

Nice attempt though

It's interesting to watch how the NBA tailors the narrative for it's own purposes. In this case they had a DAMN good reason to fuck this game up for the Warriors. Forget social media for a second and browse sports channels, etc around the world. They weren't just predicting the Warriors would win, they were predicting that the NBA Finals would be a forgone conclusion for years to come. That had to scare the shit out of the NBA. LeBron has been the face of the NBA for a long time and he was being manhandled to the point of irrelevance.

Yeah I know Cav fans are rejoicing. The avoided being swept (with a LOT of help no less). NBA better be careful though. Those refs last night were still worried the Warriors would pull that shit off and went after Green again. I laughed my ass off when Mark Jackson called them liars and Van Gundy was like this ain't a good look for the NBA.

LeBron is averaging a 30 point triple double in the Finals. Something thats never been done before and thats being "manhandled"?

Golden State has lost 4 straight elimination games. Dealing with adversity isnt their strong suit, hence the fans and bandwagoners crying bout refs after they helped them win Game 1 and Game 2 to go up 2-0.

If Golden State wins Monday night, we know its rigged because everyone is expecting them to.

I was wondering the samething

mine to, now they coppin pleas talking about the Cavs shot 20 FTs in the first qtr, when i think in Game 2 Curry shot 10 by himself in like the first 7-8 minutes of the game. I want them to explain away the Draymond tech issue of "oh no we didn't give him that first tech even tho we had it written down WITH HIS NAME ON IT".

 

[Chitownheadbusa]

An important caveat here: There is admittedly no perfect method to define and rank collective star power. Is the 2004 Pistons team with Chauncey Billups, Ben Wallace, Richard Hamilton and Rasheed Wallace -- four really good and at times All-Star caliber players -- more or less starry than the 2007 Cavaliers led by one uber-star in LeBron James and not much else? Reasonable minds can differ.
.

Speaking of the Rasheed/Pistons...


Do you see any comparisons between the 2004 Pistons and teams today?

Sheed: “Oh, we’d run through them. Not even close. We play defense.”


Mike Brown compared the defense of today’s Warriors and that Pistons team. Do you agree?

Sheed: “I’d agree to a certain point. But I think the Warriors’ defensive strategy is, I’ma put up more shots than you. And if you try to match that, then you assed out because they got exceptional shooters. So that’s their whole defensive thing. I don’t call it good defense if the man came down and he shot a jump shot or shot a three and missed it, and the Warriors went back down to the other end and scored it. That’s not good defense, and that’s what happens a lot in this game now. They’re not shutting nobody down. Even though you can’t shut a scorer down—you can slow him down.

With the way that we played in Detroit, we’d lock [players] down. The things that we did in Detroit will never be done again. Our record of holding seven teams under 70 points will never be done again.”

Agree or not, he made SOME valid points. If the opposing team can hit consistent high percentage shots, they have a shot at keeping up/beating GS.

Steph will shoot 20 FTs in the 1st quarter on Monday night. Durant will continue to get touch calls 30 feet from the basket. Dray, Zaza and gang will be allowed to hack on defense and set moving screens to free up Klay and Wardell Jr again. Its like when its in Oakland they ignore all the fuckery.

Last year they cried about refs and it didnt work out well for them after that, you think they'd learn by now.

Sheed is right, that 2004 Pistons team holding teams under 70 and 80 points WONT be duplicated. But I still think they'd have problems with Golden State because they are such potent scorers. That Pistons team had size, length, and athleticism but not enough scoring to beat this team. They wouldnt give up 110 or 120, but they'd give up 90 and lose. Golden State DOES play defense too, its not just them tryna outscore you. They are long and athletic and swarm the basketball. A lot of it is predicated on pace and wearing you down to the point you miss shots and make mistakes offensively and defensively tho.

And that's what happened in Game 4 and most of Game 3 for the Cavs, if JR Smith continues to at least hit a few shots then the Cavs have a chance and if Trisitian Thompson can crash those boards again like he did last night they have an even better chance.

Shut up bitch

Answer the question

 

[KingTaharqa]

Answer the question

Was Kobe tired after going up 3-1 in the 1st round? He only took 2 shots in the 2nd half of Game 7, he mustve been.

Why did you give LeBron a pet name?

 

[KingTaharqa]

Why did you give LeBron a pet name?

Dry your eyes Timothy. Stop crying.

Kobe was tired of the going to the playoffs. So 5 years ago he stopped. He's better rested now.

 

[THE DRIZZY]

Over 20 free-throws in the first quarter.

That is all I am going to say. When free-throws are uneven the team shooting them gets offensive rhythm and advantage.

 

[TimRock]

Dry your eyes Timothy. Stop crying.

Kobe was tired of the going to the playoffs. So 5 years ago he stopped. He's better rested now.

Still no answer? Why can't you answer the question?
