I think Pogue Mahoney could average more points than this guy at this point

Warriors taking awful 3's. Awful. Cleveland getting in the paint. Things not looking good for the Dubs.

Kyrie is a great shotmaker but when he drives it appears as though he pushes off near the basket to gain space half the time. If Lebron could do that he's score every time.

Steve Kerr totally lost. Varejao playing big minutes, killing them on both ends.

Game highlighting how important your 7th to 9th men are. They at least have to be decent for next man up philosophy to work.

Yeah hope they don't pay Ezeli the money he's going to get in FA.

Guy is going to be overpaid IMO.

I bet someone will cry about FT. But all you need to look at is how much Cavs are attacking inside and there's your answer.

Where all the the dudes saying Kyle Lowry better than Kyrie at? Never in a million years! Monster! Unbelievable player. Unbelievable. Best finisher around the basket I've ever seen.

What are the Warriors trying to do with those aweful Varejao pick'n'rolls? Play your own game not the Cavs way.

Also doesn't hurt if you have a crazy shotmaker like Kyrie.
