With the Cavs running their O through LeBron they can't be playing TT. Makes it too easy for Warriors to zone weak-side and rotate over to double. Need to have shooters out there but of course they have concerns with Frye's defense. Not sure what they can do here.

Warriors should just keep attacking Love in PNR. Went to it out their Strong series earlier where Klay missed corner 3.

Not sure what the Cavs can do. The Warriors have every counter to whatever the Cavs do.

Nothing unless TT develops a jump shot. I think the cavs rather have TT defense and getting put backs over frye gettin torched. He is a misleading -3 right now but its obvious he cant stay on the floor this series.

LeBron's court vision is second to none. Just incredible. But the Warriors ability to transition from D to O is besting the Cavs since LBJ's mates aren't finishing.

Crazy how Cavs aren't getting the benefit of the doubt and GB members complaining about the bias.

But said everything was fair during the ECF.

Lol what is the answer?

I gotta be honest, I'm surprised with how poorly the Cavaliers have played so far in these two games. I thought thos would've been a high scoring affair, but close games.

Agree. Warriors are pushing the ball up the court off the Cavs misses. Losing shooters in transition is making it worse for Cleveland.
