How the heck did the refs miss that obvious backcourt on Irving?

Looks like a fairly typical home team favoring to me by the refs. Granted, I'm playing cards, too, so my full attention isn't on the game.

Lol backcourt no call wow.  Come the **** on.  Don't tell me this **** ain't rigged!  Do your ****n job refs!
you mean like not calling a clear path on Curry and not giving Green a flagrant for hitting someone in the head.

How can you call a clear path on someone who does even have the ball?

Did you miss that backcourt violation too!

that is a text book clear path. Prevented an easy basket by fouling

If the Cavs had this kind of intensity from the beginning of the series could have been tied up.

Agreed. Though they can't keep this pace up an entire game.
Let's Go Celtics!!

Great offensive outburst by Golden State, shot the ball well.

But Jesus, the Cavs offensive domination was well beyond that. It's insane. This is the Cavs that I saw beat the living daylights out of Boston. And they took it to another level tonight.

Will it be sustainable?

No lead is safe against this GS team.

No lead is safe against this GS team.

They are shooting the ball well. If they continue that, they could easily cut this lead to 10 in like 1 - 2 minutes.

But if the Cavs can somehow sustain some of this firepower, an 18 point lead should be enough of a cushion until the end.

I really hope the Warriors do not go 16-0 in these playoffs.

I don't recall this years Celtics team getting calls like this in any games we played in the playoffs, home or away!
