Cavs have yet to score in the 4th quarter.

Also SSB how is GS's overall postseason defense I know theyve held Okc lower than average but if they really strangle cleveland what will their defense rank among champs both statistically and in your opiniom
They match up well with the Cavs, but in general they're pretty principled/talented/long so they're better than their 2016 DRTG. Statistically we'll see once they finish this series.

Klay and Steph shared their shooting touch with Draymond, Barbosa and Livingston. Warriors are playing offense as if their on rookie mode. The warriors are shuting down lebron's drives and his kickouts, kyrie is blind again and love might have a head injury

Lebron can't shoot, and can't handle in GS's traffic. Lue's rotations are questionable at the least (IMO). Love went out with a concussion. Delly/Frye/James barely get time together. GS is supremely talented across the board.

Probably. Maybe Mozgov starts then, and they go back to 2015 game plan. Might win them a half or two.

It takes an insane amount of luck to 3-peat regardless of how good you are. It's just exhausting. The Lakers got lucky against the Kings in 02 and had a joke of a Finals opponent. Even the Bulls saw their own mortality in 98 against the Pacers and Jazz. I really wouldn't bet on the Warriors winning next season

No, nothing's really gonna help them. Steph sat out a quarter and they got blown out.

The third leg of a three peat is usually the toughest for the teams who have done it. But there are clear differences between this team and the aforementioned examples above. This team isn't fighting Father Time like the 98 bulls, nor are they fighting each other like the 02 Lakers. Mental and physical fatigue is a definite obstacle, but if they stay healthy they are clearly the favorites next year. And projecting further out on futures bets it's tough to see who is beating them anytime soon. They could even be better on paper next year with their flexibility

Yea, if Lebron keeps playing like this. It's gonna have pretty big impact on his legacy at least IMO.

Why are you typing this to me? Get lost dude, i don't care about your irrelevant personal insight to my posts concerning the game.
1. I'd change the tone.
2. It was clear trolling.
3. Your really making it harder to like GSW.
4. You were just warned a week ago for trolling, so you come back and do it again.

Just roll over and accept defeat? NBA Finals? That's the answer? There's no shortage of time off and he has never jad an easier or lesser minute run to the Chip. Why rest? Why not TRY to start the 4th? I've never seen such submission.
Why are you trolling? You did this in the Westbrook thread, and you're doing it again now.
Your team is good, congratulations. It has nothing to do with you though, so I don't see why you're gloating about it. You're thoroughly insignificant to their success.
