We should just forfeit the rest of the series right now... refs are not going to give us a shot and we probably are not coming back with the same level of performance that absolutely should have equated to a victory...too hard of a pill to swallow imo.
Noone thinks the officiating was good in game 1... noone

I was pissed the rest of the night and this is not even my squad. Cavs played that game so well and the Warriors flat out escaped. Refs bailed them out and JR.....bruh, take that rock straight up for a final shot. SMH. Hopefully they can shake this off, JR needs to get mad.

I agree 100%. Cavs were flat out robbed. Hard to win playing 8 on 5. And I thought it was a good thing Scott Foster was not on the court. Tim Donaghy probably is ranting someone had money on the game on the ref team.

How much revenue would the league lose if the Cavs refused to play another game in this series ?
If we come out in game 2 looking like we did in game 1 and still lose a close game 2 this series will shift and we'll win games 3,4,6,& 7.
If we come out disorganized and disgruntled and lose bad ... probably getting 1 win max at home.

If we play like we did in game 1 and win we won't lose another game in this series.

And the hits keep on coming. I wonder if Silver knows how bad this looks:

It may have already been talked about in another thread but why doesn't Osman get minutes in the playoffs? Maybe I'm just higher on him than most but surely he should be getting some minutes over Smith, no?
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

Most Cavs fans would agree with you , but that ship has likely sailed this season

He's a real liability in the half court offense. He's got to work on his shot this summer. It's bad enough that we've got to play with J. Green or TT.

Cavs defensive rotations are abysmal. I'm also not sure they should continue to switch on everything and then just leave guys in mismatches on an island.

Another thing - LBJ has to rest. Enough of this taking plays off on defense or not boxing out. This is the Finals against a great team and we won't beat them with him not playing both ends of the court.

Lue is a joke. McGee dominated the Cavs in the 3rd. Did Lue even consider going to Nance to counter McGee's size, no! Lebron needs to take the challenge on D as well. Durant was dominating the Cavs all night and Lebron continued to switch off of Durant to allow players 6 inches smaller than him to guard him. Korver is horrible. He cannot guard anyone and if he doesn't make a shot, he is basically worthless. It would be nice to see Hill show up on offense so inconsistent. Thompson 8 pts and 7 rebounds in 34 minutes. Nance 5 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assists in 13 minutes. I am not great at math but if you played Nance the same amount of minutes as Thompson, I am pretty sure all his numbers would be better than Thompsons. Lue has to go.

Thank you Cavs fans for hanging in through this up and down season. I look forward to next season no matter what.
