Warriors lived by the 3 all year and are about to die by it. My god make the Cavs play some defense instead of jacking up 3's

Ok. This is officially one of the better games in NBA history now

That's not a foul by Curry
I'm bitter.

73 wins, yet they play some of the stupidest basketball at times. I just don't understand how they won 73 games playing with this type of style.

Before that play even hapoened, did ANYONE think it was a good idea to put Ezeli in?

Kerr may have cost them the game with that move. Lebron scored 6 straight on Ezeli.

  • Peace it's a board. We all will never agree.
Tense stuff.Curry and Thompson hopefully will hit a few now.

Curry just guarded Lebron straight up and Bron didn't know what to do


But I'm told he is the best ever, GS might bail him out but jacking up 3's every possession.

It's a different era. The teams of the 80s would have eaten this team and spit it out

It's frustrating to watch them. Cavs can at least get the ball into the paint.

Either Lebron pulls this off and we start legitimately debating if he's the greatest to ever live - or Golden State pulls this off and we start legitimately debating if they are the greatest team or all time.

6 mins.  No presh.



Even if Cavs win Lebron is not the greatest ever. He will never be MJ and I will take Bird's 84-87 years over any time period of Lebron.
it will absolutely be debatable.   Love Jordan, but he arguably couldn't do this.  He didn't crack .500 until Scottie arrived.  He left Chicago and they won 55 games without him.  Cavs and heat with and without Lebron are the diff between a championship level team and lotto team. 

But if the Warriors win this we postpone that conversation until Lebron retires.

If warriors win, they might have the title as greatest in history.  Pick your poison narrative.

Right?! Thank you. Can't figure out what he was thinking.

Great 3point team.  Everything else they do is meh.

Feels like Cavs to me, but hoping GSW can pull it out.
