I just keep shaking my head at the amount of talent on that team. Truly not fair. Props to GS for drafting the majority of it though.

The final score won't indicate how close this game was. Cleveland will win their home games. This thing is going 7

No doubt the league is not interested in a Finals that only fills the arena and TV schedule 4 times. They'll wring every dime out of this, the refs will assure it.

This has not really been competitive. Not sure who thinks this is closer than the score indicated. The warriors have dominated the second half completely.

They'll have 3 players in foul trouble before halftime next game.

 Book it.

You know what's insane? Steph has a 30/10/10, and not only was he not the best player on the floor, he hasn't even played well.

The Warriors = Ivan Drago.

Who's going to be Rocky?

Celtics ;D

I think we are still at pre-Appolo Creed trained Rocky. We aint beating this Drago...

The Spurs.

our only hope.

Realistically the only chance at winning against this roster is an injury or the GOAT.

I dont think Cleveland has the GOAT and GSW is healthy.

Lebron James isn't even the best player on the floor this series.

Tall guys with skills and toughness. Height alone won't get us anywhere.

He's missing the toughness part unless you count ripping arms as one ;)

Well, that was uneventful.  Hope it ends in a sweep, quick and dirty. 

How are TV ratings so high with a 2-team (realistically, 1-team) league?  I can't imagine it's true fans of the game that are tuning in to watch the NBA these days.

Because its a lot easier to look good when you are surrounded by GSW's talent.
