I always thought it would be GS in 5 and after this game I'm sticking to that

GS has so many creators and ball-handlers and their cutting is so awesome and of coarse they shoot from 3 brilliantly.

Disagree with Jackson, Warriors moved up because of their offense, they haven't had their best defensive game tactically. Outside of Iggy.
"I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it. That was one of them situations in which a great player made a move...and they called the call. And I was like, 'Oh, man, there is a God.'

What's strange about Lebron is although his athleticism has held up past 30, his skill level (shooting, finishing) has really declined. This is going to get a lot more attention after GS sweeps the Cavs lol.

No thats his backside.
Lowry's upside is mental and psychological.

LeBron gotta channel that inner 07 and reel off 25 straight

Same, Cleveland just can't guard them consistently. Especially when they play Love so much, he such an awful defender.

Lol its not hard when he's constantly using his height against smaller point guards.
He struggled last series against the Thunders length. But feel free to think of more trade scenarios that don't make sense.

Bogut #1 overall pick.
Iguodala former max money all star and #9 overall pick.
Barbosa. Former 6th man of the year.
Harrison Barnes. 7th overall pick.
And that's their role players!
Draymond Green. Late steal of the past 5 years.
Stephen Curry. Lotto pick turned 2-time MVP.
Klay Thompson. Top 15 pick and all star.
Building loud like ours.
Hard to beat that.
Cleveland is no slouch either. They had 4 #1 overall picks and another 4th pick that they wasted on Waiters.

Lebron only would have got one for the land if OKC won, otherwise he has no shot against GSW.

Lebron needs to be WAY more aggressive with his scoring.

That's game tonight. To beat them you really need to be on your game. All we will hear now from analysts is how the real Finals already happened between the Thunder and Warriors. Cavs have to play much better or else. Cavs facing the test.

Like I said in another thread, they have 6-7 players in their rotation that are all above average to elite triple threat players. Shooting, dribbling passing. There's really no way to defend them.
