Hate to say it.. But Cavs in 6

GSW is starting to get injuries. Lebron will guard Curry in the 4th. Well, if he doesn't cramp :troll:

Cavs in 5 please but 7 for my personal entertainment.

Warriors in 6!
The 8 day break is good rest for both teams. Irving might be back to 100%, LBJ to get some rest. Curry and Klay were roughed up by the sore losers in the last couple games.

Boring to have no NBA for an entire week but it will be awesome to watch both teams going at it full strength!

Cleveland's size will be a problem for the Warriors. They have no one that can guard Lebron either..

What a game 1! Size and rebounding seemed like Cavs were gonna steam roll Warriors in the first quarter. Igoudala made the difference in this game.

way too much lebron iso imo, gsw was smart to not double team him

Warriors have a sound plan in place. Let Lebron get his, and shutdown the rest of the perimeter shooters. The Cavs went 9-31, couldn't handle the wing rotation of Green, Barnes and Thompson.

Irving was playing beast before he went down with the injury. This could be trouble for the Cavs playing a 7-man rotation.

Kyrie Irving is out of the playoff with fractured left kneecap.
Cleavland is done

GW swap

Although slim, they still have a chance if they start Shump at point; assuming he can provide at least 15 PPG while locking down Curry

I think it'll be G-State in 5. Cavs should be able to pull out a game at home but they will be dead tired playing only 7 guys over the rest of the series. Unless they dust off Miller, Marion or Perkins.

Live and die by the 3 for GSW. Curry played terrible.

I thought the officiating was terrible and the Cavs got screwed on a few occasions.

is Irving the new glass man? so fragile.

The problem with the Cavs is that they don't have anyone that can create offense. Lebron has to create his own shot on almost every possession. He never gets to come off screens and shoot. This is exhausting and is a huge factor in why his efficiency is poor. Towards the end of the game, fatigue starts to kick in and he ends up taking a lot of bad shots.

Mozgov and Dellavedova played a hell of a game. James Jones was also really key off the bench. If Delly can keep up the intense defense on Curry, the Cavs have a shot. Lebron will need to step up and make some shots, but I thought he was much better in game 2 and allowed several other teammates to get into rhythm. Only thing that kept the Warriors in that game was Thompson's hot shooting and Jr's incompetence.

One thing people don't realize about the Cavs' iso plays with Lebron is that it's also a defensive tactic. Lebron playing iso prevents any quick transition buckets from the Warriors because they will almost always have at least 3 guys back in time. It's inefficient on offense, efficient on defense.

Spoiler alert for those that havent watched the last episode of GoT

ugh Warriors such a tease, Lebron dropping 40+ every game...

Lebron is in Godmode right now... what he's doing is nothing short of amazing.
Delledova has always been a huge pest to Curry. He's tiring him out.

Curry needs to get going like the 2nd half of Game 3. Hopes he can come out strong next game or it's good night Warriors.

Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green need to play better. Collectively, the two shot 11% (2/18).

Dellavedova doing it all again tonight. That and 1 play when it was 81-80 was so clutch. I don't know how much longer Lebron can play 45+ minutes. When he comes off the court, the Cavs become so vulnerable though.

I honestly cannot remember the last offensive possession where Lebron didn't touch the ball at least twice. EVERYTHING is going through him. The main reason Tristan Thompson is getting all the offensive boards is because the interior defenders all collapse on James when he drives leaving TT open on the weak side of the net.

That, and they're doing a poor job boxing out. TT just seems to want it more than anyone else. There have been so many times where TT just got inside position from just pure effort.

^ true, also doesn't help the fact that Bogut is more busy pulling WWE moves than jumping for the rebound.

That Iman Shumpert inbounds pass LOL

whichever team wins game 4 wins the series, calling it!

gotta give credit to delly tho, he played so hard he needed an IV after the game lol

The real Warriors finally showing up!

Warriors and their 3point shooting is back. Their defense completely picked up this game. Lee & Iguodala.
