Tristan Thompson is actually earning his paycheck, finishing with authority running the floor and relentlessly crashing the glass. He isn’t much of an interior enforcer but his perimeter D is underrated. His deal will look like a steal compared to Harrison “bricking wide open corner pocket treys” Barnes gtting a full max. He didn't even deserve that 64 mill offer

Lebron has no help

Love is ghost. I'd bet he is gone... but where should he go?

Every starter for the Cavs tonight besides Love was at least a +20. Kevin Love was a -6. Unreal.

I would've done the same. The last 2 fouls were awful.

Bron's back to back 40+ point/near triple double performances makes up for his 2011 chokejob, he has a case for Top 5 ATG now and he has reclaimed the throne from Steph. He is Jerry West/2000s Shaq level dominant in the Finals. Has a strong case for MVP even if Cavs can't close it out on the road

Man, im not one of "Those Guys"....... but there was alot going on to suggest that the league was getting its Game 7. That last foul on Curry was BS. Actually the last 3 fouls on Curry were awful calls. There was also multiple no-calls against guys fouling Curry in the 4th. I thought maybe they were just going to let them play, but then they started calling ticky-tack fouls against GS. That was horrible.

And speaking of horrible......Kevin Love. Seriously, Cleveland has played its best basketball when Love is out. Concussion? They played great. Riding the bench? They played great. On the court? GS makes runs. They seriously need to move him and spend that Love contract money in a better way. He has been horrible and the team has suffered every time he is on the floor during the Finals. Its almost laughable to see people still want him on the Suns.

Apparently it hit the son of Dan Gilbert, NBA doesn’t have the cajones to suspend him for that. It would probably be uncalled for with the stakes so high

Wouldve decked the referees. I cant believe Ken Mauer still has a job as a referee.

Most bigoted, arrogant referee who abuses his referee power in the worst way when he gets offended due to his over-sensitive entitled personality he has. Uses his power to give out technical fouls openly. I bet he was bullied as a child.

Thompson was excellent; I actually feel that he may be slightly better than Serge Ibaka at switching out on Curry on the perimeter, and Ibaka seemed to be about as good as you can get.

With that burly body and how hard he plays, Thompson reminds me a bit of Charles Oakley. Thompson is taller and probably a little quicker and faster.

Of course, Oakley was nastier, and he developed a jump shot.

Like stopping the game for five minutes every time there is a mostly hard foul?

JR Smith is probably the 4th best Cavs player. Whoda thunk.
