    Hahahahaha I'm weakkkk. I was done being salty about it the moment the Cavs won the game. Imagine what would've happened if they lost haha.

    Also people are calling it one of the best finals performances ever so I don't really agree he's not getting enough credit, most are giving him his due. Of course certain people like Skip Bayless are gonna hate cuz that's what they do, saw he gave Bron's game a C+ or something lol.

    Only legit knock on his last 2 games is he didn't close the games the way a star should, at one point he missed 15 of his last 19 shots in game 2. There's no way an elite player should let his team lose that 11 point lead with a few minutes left. He's been amazing other than late in games when he's tried to score himself, he's still had some great set ups. But that's the only fair criticism I can think of.

    I thought he was gonna give away Game 2. He's still shooting pretty bad from the outside but he is killing it in the paint. He needs to be more consistent from the line too. His numbers are amazing, but definitely a little inflated because of all the injuries they've had.

    Wonder how many people in the crowd tonight burned their Bron jersey or cussed him out 4 years ago, my guess would be at least 2 or 3 thousand.

    I feel like Cleveland is on the verge of pulling a Vancouver(burning their city down after losing to the Bruins in the Finals) if they lose this series.

    If the Cavs are worse without Love/Kyrie, I certainly don't see it. Seems like it gives them that 'chip on the shoulder' attitude and gives Bron more space to work with, I don't know.

    Curry's gotta get something going lol, this is ridiculous for an MVP.

    Bron wasn't the key to the first half, it was the defense on the splash brothers. Steph and Klay with less than 10 combined points on 4-15 shooting. Warriors have zero chance if that keeps up.

    Warriors big men have got to step it up. They're bringing two men on Klay & Curry (especially Curry) and daring the big men to s---t or roll down, but they're being very hesitant. Bout didn't try to go up on a play he could've had a dunk, & Green has missed open shots. Barnes is a whole other level of scrub right now.

    Doubt it, better chance of a game that'll be over at the end of the 3rd. Cavs D totally shutting the Warriors down, Warriors aren't playing their style at all right now.
