NBA Playoffs Season 2014-2015

[SHAQATTACK]

I think the Warriors will bounce back, no way Steph Curry will shoot this poorly again.

He seems to do poorly .....against the Cavs defensive scheme ......designed to shut his three point barrages down.

If he and Kerr don't find a way to get him the type of looks he needs ....I think he ll continue to shoot poorly .......they seem to have found his Achilles heal

Yet it still went into overtime..... regardless of Curry's bad game.

Yet ..for me after watching the first two games .....I feel the Warriors are the lucky team really to be tied 1-1 ........

Cavs should be up 2-0 .......they have out hustled the Warriors ,and played he best defense and controlled the tempo .....about all you can do

The series is now slanted in favor of the Cavs

Unless Curry brings some of that MVP stuff to the next game......it might be curtains

Worst game I've seen from Curry. I guess Golden State's only solace is that they were in a position to win regardless. LeBron can and will do whatever he wants without fail.

The referees were bad, but I still remember the last few minutes of Miami vs Golden State G2. Or Boston vs. Miami G2. 

I don't know. Lebron got a triple double, but he was very inefficient while doing it (under 30% I believe), and he made several bad turnovers/missed shots at the end. Definitely seemed like he was getting wore down. Those numbers are probably what to expect of him the rest of the way. Big stats but inefficient due to fatigue.

Exactly.  It wasn't a really great recipe for the cavs going forward.  But when he literally plays 50 min and is literally the only weapon on off for the cavs that is what is going to happen.  A lot of missed shots at the end of the game for James, but cavs have no where else to turn.  It was amazing that they pulled that game out.

Lebron is Lebron I felt he was going to carry the Cavs to a game maybe two.

Oh I agree, I just thought that GS had the momentum going into overtime is all.  LBJ might have it in him to win 3 more games against GS like he did tonight.  It just seems unlikely.  I expect these next two games to be very close as well.

I also felt it was a bit of a trap game......the Cavs fighting tooth and nail .....with Irving out .....the Warriors were too soft.....

Cavs playing with back against the wall, no Irving ........Warriors didn't counter their energy .

Cavs turned the series around

They did have the momentum going into OT, but then started 0 for 3 in the extra period.

Lol first NBA Finals game win in Cleveland Cavaliers history. Those fans must be rejoicing right now. 

They're mostly just complaining about how the Cavs will give them a heart attack and fanboying over Delly. Some of them are being ballsy though and talking major smack. It's really fun to watch.

yeah it had that 'backs against the wall' type feel for the cavs.  amazingly close series so far.  the cavs def has been impressive overall.  they are playing at the pace they need to play to win.

Wow:

The Cavs shot 32.6% and won. During regular season, teams that made fewer than a third of their field goal attempts won a total of 4 games.

[D.o.s.]

Here is Curry's shot chart. It may be NSFW:

I think the Celtics shot worse and won I think in the regular season (was it the Hawks?).

Still rooting for the Warriors but they have to play an all-around game. Too many threes, too much dribbling up the ball and chucking up a bad shot. They need to play team ball, when they did that they went on runs and showed up the Cavs. Klay was on fire early on and should have taken the last shot, or anyone but Curry..

I hope they can correct the ship in Game 3, if not, the Cavs may run away with it which is sad seeing as how depleted their roster is compared to GS.

Agreed, but you are forgetting that this is LeBron James we are talking about. He don't need Kyrie Irving nor Kevin Love to win big games!

These West teams are exaggerated af.  How are they better than the East again?  Almost all of them has been awful.  I'll put my Celtics team against their 8th seed any day. 

[Adelaide Celt]

Curry was 0-8 with 4 turnovers when being defended by Dellavedova in the half court. 

As much as I enjoyed it, I think the Warriors are gonna come out breathing fire in game 3. Probably a double digit win for them.
