Lebron is the best player on the planet and IF he brings a title to Cleveland it will be THE biggest thing ever for them. Ain't nothing gonna stop him IMO

I said it before the series - I wanna see Cleveland win. Not for a fustercluck organization that fell into good fortune, no way! But for an entire state that has experienced years or pain.

We can't possibly understand what it's like - cause we're better than them :-)

A lions fan can :(, but they do have the Browns.

Warriors playing great,everyone is helping,green looks to have bounced back,bogut is keeping lebron off hes toes in the paint,iggy guarding lebron well,curry/klay doing their thing.Ball movement looks great.

Delly is doing ok on defense but the rest of his game has reverted back,james seems to be back to his cry baby self,looks like game 3 took its toll,Even Mozgov is doing ok,but hes getting frustrated and took a tongue lashing from the ref,james had to come in and smooth it over.

If the warriors played like they did in the 1st half,then they should win.

EDIT-Theres a pic floating around the GB of lebrons junk,guess he pulled his shorts out and down to far lol,BEWARE!!

Finally they play Iggy and Lee significant minutes. Going small is how they're going to win.

It's safe to say Bogut has been a non factor throughout this finals. He's been a no show on offense and defense has been lackluster as he's been pushed around by CLE's bigs which expends too much of his energy.

Warriors still need to win game 5.

Home court simply isn't what it used to be. Can't say with any kind of confidence that the Warriors can win 2 straight in the Bay, not when the home team is seemingly losing every other game.

All my confidence in GSW vanished in games 2 and 3.
they showed some life tonight though. If they lost tonight that would have been the series for sure.

But playing on depleted legs and a depleted bench,I see the warriors coming out strong with the home court being louder than ever,james will come out looking good in the 1st half,but I see him looking just like he did in the 4th of this game,in the 2nd half of gm 5.Nobody is stepping up on that team and now that delly has used whats left in his tank in game 3,I dont see him being a leg lebron can lean on for offense (not that he was known for that anyway).I think its going to take a miracle for the cavs to win,especialy if they lose game 5.Even if jr goes off,I dont see that being a factor.As long as kerr keeps the tempo up,he will wear down the cavs again.

I look forward to seeing Iggy get FMVP should they win. But Curry though.

He's been their Kawhi, doing bit of everything and great defense.

Yep, handles like a magician and deeper range than Miller/Allen. That play at 2:43 though

Jeesh Curry. I don't even know anymore.

Anyone not named Jordan or Kobe would get yanked if they attempted half the shots Curry makes.

Seeing Curry and LeBron live is something else.

I've seen LeBron several times, he just defies the game. Curry, a magician.

People will say after this finals we need to go small. But it's really a product of the teams playing. The Warriors needed Bogut against the Grizzlies and Rockets. The Cavs needed Mozgov all year. If You replace Drummond with TT, I doubt this small ball stuff would still be going on...that is if Drummond could make free throws.

Warriors in 6.

When you're hitting 3s like this http://streamable.com/b29w or this http://streamable.com/0j3o it's over. These are shots you hit to impress during practice or maybe a pickup, not an actual game.

Also an interesting stat:

Lance Stephenson was traded to the Clips. For SPencer HAwes (17million) and Barnes. I don't understand the move as they still have commited salary, and downgrade in talent. Must have been desperate. I would love matt barnes on this team

I also want Barnes. With Charlotte likely to release him, I wonder if SVG will try to make a move for him. He'd be a solid SF for us if we could get him. He and one of Hezonja, Winslow and Johnson should be a solid combo for the SF position.
