Special game even if both teams are minus a Star Guard. It is a rematch of the teams that met in the last 3 finals and may meet again. The NBA picked real special matchups for today, and this game is the main one.

Can't get into this match up with Curry and Isaiah not playing, would rather watch the yule log tbh

The nba picked 4 terrible games and this game.

I'm sorry but Lebron defense in the 4th quarter was pathetic... But this refs, they decided the game for the Warriors.

Should have watched the yule log.
KD should have been ejected in 1st.
Then proceeded to get away with
Fouls in crunch time.
No shocker really as that's usually the case with him anymore.
What pisses me off is how few calls LeBron is drawing this season where the same call is made against him every **** time.
The officiating this year has been very biased against us, can't explain it,but the league definitely needs to

This games is a good example off why Lue has to say something on obvious no calls/bad calls. That first reach in by Durant was an obvious foul right in front of the official. The second one on the next play gets called if Lue lets the officials know they owe him one. The two minute report is going to be atrocious.

Lue is a passive fish bruh. He has no business coaching a team.

You can't blame the outcome on the referees. Lebron just didn't play that well. Every time he commits a turnover he looks at the referee to bail him out with a foul call. I have to admit he's good sport before and after the game, but he's just insufferable during the game itself. If you watch Curry during a game, you'll see that he gets fouled on just about every offensive play, either by giving hit by an illegal pick or held. IT gets mentioned by the broadcasters, but you don't hear us berating referees as a result

The refs cost them the game and LeBron didn't go super saiyan, the two aren't mutually exclusive.

Game was tied, Durant commits two obvious fouls in the last two minutes, Cavs lose possession both times and don't even get a shot off. Take that can't-blame-the-referees nonsense elsewhere.

The Cavs have got to figure out the Warriors on defense. I don't know why we look great moving the ball against other teams and then just decide to completely go Iso against the Warriors like its 2001. The offense last night was down right ugly and embarrassing at times and it wasn't really anything the grand the Warriors were doing. I am talking early in the shot clock one on one, one pass and a shot crap that makes them super easy to defend.

Literally thinking the same thing. It's like once the Cavs see the Warriors they expect LeBron to walk on water and turn water into wine. It's like the panic button gets hit before even taking the floor by everyone, including LeBron.

Honestly, it's not that complicated. Some what they were doing was pretty stupid. Love needs to pass out of double teams in the post (his teammates need to provide him with easy passing angles). LBJ needs to not play hero ball when Korver is on the floor. Korver will command a considerable amount of attention from the defense if they think you'll pass it to him. There shouldn't be a time he's on the floor for 5 minutes without getting a look. TT needs to get the ball back out to shooters off of offensive rebounds as opposed to getting blocked 16 times in a row.

Agreed, but at least he doesn't go potato head on us with that vacant stare into nothing like Brown used to do. Maybe he figures Lebron does enough crying for the entire team, not that it isn't justified by Lebron at times but he does complain a ton.

Lebrons complaining isn’t the same thing though. It’s just on individual plays. Refs need to be called out as a whole for never giving him free throws when mugged at the rim
