I thought five games originally but Warriors DOMINATED the Cavs at home this year. I think they bet them by over 11 in game three and maybe under five in game four and win it in four now. Curry hasn't even had a good game yet (hasn't needed one) and this GSW team is too deep.

Lebron ain't ever going to bring that championship to Cleveland.

It's 2-3-2 format in the Finals. Next 3 games in Cleveland.

No he won't. His window to do so was the years he spent in Miami. That was his prime and the competition was weaker. Now there's a dynasty in Golden State that he can't get around.

It's 2-2-1-1-1.

They must've changed it recently then..

looks like i'm going to be dead wrong about this series. i guess there's a slight possibility the cavs can turn things around in cleveland and maybe that'll give them some momentum once they have to go back to golden state (assuming it goes to 5 games) but its going to be difficult.

and the reason its gonna be tough is because clevelands offense isn't clicking at all. lebron doesn't look like the guy we are accustomed to seeing. he's never been the greatest shooter, but he's really struggling to score when he's not close to the basket. the other guys aren't doing much better and their offense just hasn't been explosive like it was earlier in the playoffs.

we'll see what happens once they get back to cleveland. the cavs desperately need their hometown fans behind them. but at this point, nothing really suggests that they're going to do much better at home

Holy s---, there goes my expectations for this series, right out the window. The way it looks right now, this could turn into a sweep, doubt it though. Let's see what the Cavs can do at home. LeBron is in deep s---.

Obviously I thought GS could win the series, but I don't think anyone expected them to blow out the Cavs in games 1 & 2 like they have, especially considering how inconsistent their back court has played.

Game 3 will be no different if the Cavs don't hit their inside shots and stop turning the ball over.

this series has been soooooooo boring so far

Something no one's discussing and no one probably thought much about (including me until now) but we know Bron wants to be on a team that can win, and we know quite frankly he wants it to be fairly easy...would he consider going to Golden State? I still lean towards no, I think if the Warriors were to get a major star player like that it'd be more likely to be Durant. But I wouldn't rule it out, Bron would seriously look so pathetic if he does that though lol.

A move back to Miami seems more likely, I don't really see him going anywhere in the west, but thought it was interesting to bring up at least. Lebron can technically go wherever he wants. If I were KD or Bron and planning on bailing, I'd really look at a team like the timberwolves, amazing young core and good coaching now too. That's a situation they could go to and still be the 'leader' of the team, and still have a very good chance to win it all.

Man I don't think either of them would go to GS simply for the fact that they'd be blatant front runners, jumping to a team that had knocked you out of the playoffs multiple times (in Bron's case).

LeBron wants to be part of a winning culture, it's what he craved when he left Cleveland the 1st time and what he craved when he came back. Wade's getting old now, Bosh's future is uncertain so I don't think that's the move. KD is trickier to predict.

Also can you imagine Bron going to Minnesota after pushing to move Wiggins for Love. I bet he'd take that trade back in a heartbeat if he had the chance.

 

Jun 6, 2016

What a f---in joke, the excuses are already starting for poor Lebron.




Obviously this isn't the worst supporting cast he's had for a finals lol, some actually said it was his best(although I strongly disagree.) Plus Bron chose to get rid of Blatt (a better coach) for his buddy Tyronn Lue and also chose about half the players on the team lol.

 

Jun 6, 2016

Bro nothing will come close to being as bad as the 07 team or the team from last season. It's really not even LeBron or the Cavs fault tbh.

It's pretty simple when you think about it; nobody has as many good players as GS does. Factor in the system and you have an all time great team running over future HOF's like Bron & KD.

A pet peeve of mine in the NBA is when people think getting a lot of steals means you're a great defender, I mean yes those things are often connected but it doesn't mean you're a great defender just cuz you get steals..Take Lebron last night for example who had 4 steals I believe and the ABC crew was talking about how great he was doing on D for a bit there..Watch this video and look at all the mistakes just from last night lol, he reminds me of Kobe's last few years defensively when he'd sometimes almost play the role of a safety and kinda just patrol the floor and look for steals, but he'd often leave his guy wide open cuz of this.

Yeah but a lot of fans (including you) predicted the cavs would win this series, so let's not pretend like everyone thought it'd be this much of a beat down...Never seen a star player get as many excuses as Lebron gets.

 

Jun 6, 2016

Man some of those lapses are definitely on him, but a lot involve teammates responsibilities.

1:30 is all Bron, can't fall asleep like that.

1:50 is on Shump & Frye, they didn't communicate on the screen & roll. Bron is there but guarding Dray in the corner.

2:10 IMO he does the right thing in switching onto Klay, Klay just hits a tough shot.

2:17 what's he suppose to do? Shump was beat badly off the dribble and he showed, it's on another defender to rotate onto LeBron's man.

I haven't watched the whole video but it seems like for every 1 mistake he's making the right play 3-4 times.

I'm not trying to make excuses for LeBron. When I say GS is more talented overall, it's a fact that I think most would agree on. I just thought he was good enough to win anyway, like he almost did last year. Jet predicted a sweep but nobody would have predicted to blow outs to open the series, especially after GS was in a war with OKC.

 

Jun 6, 2016

I picked Cavs to win the series. I believe everyone on the Cavs including Lebron feel that they can't beat GS. They're mentally defeated already and I wouldn't be shocked of a sweep at this point. I really have no idea what to expect this summer whether he decides to stay or bail again.

 

Jun 6, 2016

i really don't give a s--- about this series. the only thing i care about is the $40 i'm going to get when the Warriors win because my friends are idiots.

made two $20 bets for the series last night, they're going with the Cavs so I figured I'd take advantage of their stupidity. Cav's are not going to win 4 of the next 5 lol.
