NBA 2018 Finals - Cleveland Cavaliers vs Golden State Warriors

[EpochLink]

Well I am off to work

Hopefully GS closes this out and offseason for NHL/NBA can get in full swing

World Cup starts next week!
I'm looking forward to it

I'd give it to Curry, I think it's much closer than most people think. If Curry keeps this up you can argue he outplayed Durant in 3/4 games. That game 3 stinker hurts his cause but I think the voters will give it to him.

Game one is debatable, and Durant was better in game 2 when the game was actually in play. Curry got hot when the game was already over and hit a bunch of 3s.

Durant also actually offers something on the defensive end.

The halftime crew all decided to wear glasses tonight?

From the 70's.

Well game 2 was not 'already over' in the 4th, the Cavs were only down 10 and cut the lead to 7. Then Steph hit back to back 3's to pull away.

I don't know, either Durant or Curry deserves it but I'm leaning towards Durant.

There's Klay Thompson's first bucket of the night.

I think they wanted Curry to get it all a long since Durant already has a finals MVP. Next season it goes to Thompson.

If Thompson has another stinker like he's having tonight I don't think he should sniff Finals MVP LOL.

What does Curry have to do on defense to get any respect? He's a smart anticipator and disrupts passing lanes, and it a pretty good on-ball defender for his size. Hell, he's being targeted by LeBron switches all series and he's done pretty well on him.

 

[Del Preston]

Good going JR

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Glad this is LeBron’s last game as a Cav. He deserves better.

 

[EpochLink]

JR Smith playing like trash

This is his team. He's getting exactly what he deserves.

Klay Thompson going off now..

He's horrible on defense. The only reason any Cav is able to create anything on offense other than James.

It might look like he is great anticipating to the untrained eye, but when his other 4 teammates on the floor are great to elite defenders, it doesn't hurt them as much to constantly cheat or make risky plays on defense.

Agreed, Lebron went to bat for these guys when they were wanting new contracts. Now we are seeing the ugly affects of it.

Yea there’s a reason teams target Curry as opposed to literally anyone else on the court.

It’s not so much that Curry is horrible, it’s that Durant is elite so when you compare the two the difference is significant.

 

[Hockeyholic]

This was a predictable outcome. It really was. Warriors likely knew from the start a title was nearly guaranteed. Probably doesn't make it as special for them..in a weird way

 

[Jack Straw]

Cavs getting embarrassed now

 

[EpochLink]

Cavs about to throw in the towel, Lebron has his bags packed out of Cleveland.

 

[hatterson]

You can tell LeBron is exhausted.

Also fed up with having to do literally everything himself.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

There's absolutely no way LeBron will sign with the Lakers. He is Houston-bound. He wants to beat the Warriors so bad. Tired of losing to them and Houston is his best chance. But we'll see.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

Will Kerr rest his stars?

Running clock time. Only thing left to see is who will win MVP.
