NBA Finals 2015-2016 thread

So GSW is still sweeping the Cavs?   

I doubt it.

LeBron too good at home

He's an ass.  Greats play great wherever

So what's up with the Kobe 'ghostbusters' type commercial? Unless you know the movie well, its hard to even understand what the commercial is about, and why Kobe is the one advertising it.

Mozgov 'Artested' Klay Thompson

That was my assessment, as well.  Ugh.  That could severely hamper him for the rest of the series if it's bad enough.  Hopefully it's not that serious.  Bush league move, either way, though I can't say that I'm surprised.  I am surprised that Curry didn't come out with knee, elbow, and shoulder pads, plus a helmet, lol.  I'm sure they'll try to pull a Wade-on-Rondo equivalent on Steph.  Still, it's only 6 points a quarter for Golden State.

Good bunch those pos back in the mouth

Is it just me, or has GS played better without Curry and Klay on the floor this series?

It's exactly what Artest did to Ray Allen in the last Finals series with the Lakers, and Ray was never the same the rest of that series.

Klaus Thompson has some horrible shot selection at times.. Why the hell would you shoot that after just bricking two free throws??

Nein!

Love on the chopping block after that quarter, even if he is just used as a scapegoat.

iirc he was p good in the playoffs until the Finals.

in any case, he is a good player that has not fitted very well in CLE, I still think the rational thing for the Cavs is to find a way to make him work better with the rest of the team than trade him.

At this point, Lebron is better at the 4 for what Lue wants to do offensively. They'd be better off adding a really good 3 and D wing.

[Ed Hollison]

When put to the fire, they will resort to Lebron and Kyrie hero ball.

Here we go. All one on one for the Cavs right now. Playing with sheer adrenaline and the energy of the crowd. You can definitely do that for a quarter, maybe even for a game. But as you're starting to see right now in the second quarter, it's hard to keep it up like that.

Yep, he'll have that contusion for a month. I got Charlie-horsed the second game of my senior season for a deep thigh contusion, and I had it the rest of the three month season.

Yep.  I wonder if we'd put Pierce at the two and Finley at the three in game, well, 3, lol, if we could have done it.  We played really dumb after that pick-up-from-game-6 like start to that contest.  It was like they just stopped doing what was working.  After seeing who the officials were that night, I honestly felt, and still feel, that had we somehow been able to win that game that nothing could stop us in that series, but we'll never know.  Sigh.

Cough Crowder Cough

Does Kyrie Irving have any interest in passing the ball tonight?

How can u watch what lebron just did and call him the best player.  Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.in joke
