It amazing watching the game I love spoils by suits above. Curry fouled out on THE KING **** flop. They win they get their 7th game however they have one less fan watching the game. You have to be kidding me, that bitch complains and moans on every call. He forearm shivers every player he drives on, Currys ( who is also a bitch) wife just might be right.

Bogut being out is hurting the warriors more than people thought. Lebron is getting to the hoop at will, Green cannot keep TT off the boards and Iggy walking around like my 91 year old grandmother. Warriors are screwed and the cavs will win game 7 by 10+ points. I said Cavs in 6 but it looks like I was off a game.

Off season is going to be awesome if LeBron is a FA. Officially rooting for Cleveland now - though I think injuries and suspensions have a huge role in the comeback so far.

KD to Boston 'it's happening' quotient skyrockets with a Cleveland win.

Gotta hand it to LeBron, he's one hell of a player. He's really shut up the critics this week. Honestly won't be that upset if they win game 7 but, I will be rooting for the Dubs.

I don't buy it. I think James stays in Cleveland, whether they win or not. But if he does leave, he better head West!

That's crazy to me that he would bail after doing that. Why wouldn't he bask in the glory at home?

Probably because Cleveland is gross and he doesn't like Gilbert.

I'd say if Cleveland wins he's in LAC next season, opening the doors for all kinds of crazy stuff this summer.

Too young Doc would have no interest, get back to me in 15 years and I think Doc will bring him in.

Celtics get Griffin and Pierce. Clippers get Melo. Knicks get #3 pick, Amir, Jerebko, Young.
Blazers get DAJ. Clippers get Plumlee and future picks.

How much cap space does that open up for Wade and Lebron to join in the summer?

Have you ever predicted against a Lebron-led team?

LOL.

No I guess I have not predicted against a Lebron lead team in a long time. I just expect his teams to win every series because he has been stacking teams for six years.

Hahaa, I'm kidding (okay there might be some truth to it).

We're Boston fans man. We're supposed to irrationally hate Lebron. We're supposed to simultaneously say that his teams are ****, and at the same time, attribute all his success to the fact that he colluded in Miami and is playing GM in Cleveland. Duhhh.

The last time an away team won a Finals Game 7 was in 1978.

I'm picking the Warriors on Sunday.

Oh I am rooting against Lebron. I am sick of seeing his teams in the finals every single year. Just not seeing the warriors winning the series as they looked shell shocked.

I hate the fact Lebron creates super teams, how he has become the GM, coach and manager of the cavs. There is nothing more I'd love to see is another finals defeat.

Regardless of all this it's hard to deny how great he is. Cavs wins this series there is very little doubt he passes bird and becomes the 4th or 5th best player in NBA history.

It's weird because Bogut being taken out last year is what propelled the Dubs to their title.
