Game 5 = winning time.

The league is suspending Green now to make up for his lack of a suspension in the OKC series. It's perfect for the NBA because they have an argument against the accusation of favoring the Warriors while also giving the Cavs a good shot at extending this series.

As for Kevin Love: Of course he needs touches to be the player he is. He was never somebody for the dirty work, the great defensive work or what not. But with the ball, he's a devastating weapon offensively. The same essentially applies to Kyrie Irving. The problem is, the Cavs don't balance their attack but rather have two players who take up the majority of the shots. If this is their plan when the going gets tough, then they should trade Love for players who will be tough defensively and limited to certain things offensively, whether it's scoring 2nd chance points or shooting threes.

So... Andrew Wiggins? The guy isn't perfect but he's got the size of a prototypical wing and at this point he's a better athlete than LeBron himself.

I would assume that because they gave up a prospect like that for Love they aren't going to want to let him go unless they get serious value back for him.

Draymond deserved to get suspended. Hell, he deserved to get suspended 3 times in this Playoffs.

But it's obvious that this is not "NBA coming to their senses" but just them "trying to extend the series to make some cash". Which is a shame.

I want the series to continue further but I highly doubt Cavs steal a game in Oakland. With or without Draymond.

Yeah essentially Andrew Wiggins. I agree though, after the initial trade, they'd ridicule themselves if they gave him up for role players, even though a mixture of certain role players could provide them with more depth and versatility given how they use Love.

Warriors win Game 5 comfortably.

LeBron acting like a certified bitch. He's an ego maniac, worst than Kobe at this point. He just swears up & down that he's going to lead his team to victory tomorrow, I would love for Curry to send these bitch made queers home crying.

Wiggins isn't really a good shooter yet and his defense is inconsistent. I don't think he would have really fit with LeBron's timeline.

If defense wins championship, and that seems to be the case for the most part in the past decades, then teaming up with Kyrie and Love is the dumbest idea ever. LeBron has no body to blame but himself

Excellent gif choice

Neither does Love though and its like the Wiggins is incapable of defending, he just happens to play on a team where it isn't asked of him. If we had drafted him I have no doubt that he would be a good defender. He's too long and athletic not to be.

I can see why they did it because they were in win now mode but it clearly hasn't worked out since they look like a better team without Love out there.

They were supposed to be the GOAT offense...or something

Yeah, I agree Love doesn't seem like the best fit. LeBron plays the 4 better than he does, but he can't easily slide down to the 5 either. I know LeBron has said he prefers playing the 3, so maybe that's why he wanted a traditional 4 like Love.

So Lebron crying actually worked. In that particular situation they both should get suspension, but why would they (NBA) hurt themselves. But unfortunately ball doesn't lie, insert Rasheed Wallace gif here, so tomorrow it will be all over while saying: " That was easy".
