No need to take threes when you can get into the paint at will.

I think most people expected this. I bet game 2 is much more competitive

So angry this isn't the Heat. We deserved to watch that series. Still an easy one for the Cavs but at least we could have had some vintage Wade moments.

The Raps still remain second best team in the East, it's easy to get caught in the hype of fandom thinking we can matchup with Cleveland but they have more talent, plain and simple and one of if not the best player on the planet. Raps deserve to be here and not a single other ECF might have been able to give a better challenge to the Cavs with the way they are playing.

Still believe in our team, may be able to sneak a game or two but I'm still proud this team got here and can still improve with tons of assets going forward.

Shumpert's handle is so loose :lol: . Funny watching him dribble. He's so athletic though if he had a handle he'd be a very good player.

Wait? Didn't he just elbow Delly out of the way and the foul was on Delly who had established position?

I don't think that was the hard dunk. Looks like it was the one where he drove in and was surprised he was open so he said welp, might as well dunk it, and kind of sneak-dunked it at the last second.

Cavs in 4 if Jonas doesn't come back in time. Good luck in the finals Cavs fans looks to me the bad luck in your city's professional sports history will come to an end

They are now doing what the Warriors were able to do early in the year sitting Curry every 4th quarter.

Deflate gate 2.0

Also, apparently steroid abuse does lead to deflated balls.
