NBA Playoffs Season 2014-2015

It looks like David Lee has played himself into the Warriors rotation.

He's definitely made a difference, so it'll be interesting how it affects the series

Yeah, they've finally found something that works. A combination on offense that can cause the Cavaliers' defense problems. David Lee should play a big role in the remainder of the series. This could and should be a series-turning moment for Golden State.

Can the Cavs wheel Kyrie out there in a wheelchair to take some FTs?

I read he's technically active, although he's not in the arena.

Well, I think it's safe to say we're going to get a solid 48 hours of Curry slander for this.

It's not like he doesn't deserve it.  Sure he had a better 4th quarter, but on the whole, he had another pretty ugly game.  Bad turnovers down the stretch.

[SCeltic34]

This is the Warriors team most of us were expecting.  They put up 33 points so far this quarter and their defense has been good. 

But one quarter out of 12 obviously isn't going to get it done.  They're lucky to have won game 1.

It won't matter if the Cavs keep getting 150% from the scrubby supporting cast.  Warriors need to hope some of these guys fall back to Earth.

That Curry shot... Wow. Hopefully this helps his confidence for next game.

[PhoSita]

Yeah so where was this for the first 3 quarters of the game?

[SparzWizard]

Steph Curry with the hot hand

The crazy thing is that Delly might be the only one playing well over his head.

[SCeltic34]

The Cavs winning this series would be a death knell for teams with the quixotic dream of building an NBA champion with anything less than all-time great players taken at the top of the draft.  Just give up.

Is this good or bad for the game?

I suppose it's good because the average (i.e. casual) fan wants to see hero ball, a one-man wrecking crew like LeBron.  But for true fans of the sport, teams like the Spurs are the gems of the sport in my opinion.  Shows that teamwork trumps great individual talent.  This isn't golf.

Come on steph!

[jpotter33]

Oh wow, that ref did not even know what he was calling....

[Chief]

Free throws would be about even if green could get a foul on Mozgov.

I think Moz is playing at least a little bit over, and I can't believe that Tristan Thompson is actually Dennis Rodman 2.0.  They're collectively playing well over their heads defensively, for sure.

Biggest mistake in the last few minutes of the game was taking Barbosa out. He gave Delavadova fits on defense b/c of quickness and length and he made it so that Delavodova had to be on him on D and Shump on Curry (when he started to heat up).
