Probably one of the best Finals games I've seen in years. It was back and forth the whole game. That shot by Kyrie was huge.

Yeah but our 4 losses to them were blowouts. We aren't close at all.


3 of the 4 losses for GS were blowouts too.

Did anyone mention Love's defense on Curry at the end there tho?

I'm so hyped and I'm a neutral party. This is so amazing.

That block by Lebron was the greatest block I've ever seen. Holy ****

That was phenomenal. Congrats to the Cavs and Cleveland.

Big performances from all three of Cleveland studs. GOAT series from Bron. Kyrie looked like regular season Steph, and some great defense by Love on Steph. That was the GOAT block by LeBron too. I screamed.

Two years in a row that Kerr got outcoached. Steph really needs to improve his decision making. His talent level lets him get away with a lot of things but he is definitely not J Kidd/Nash between the ears.

Nice close finals game. But....


I'm still feeling embarrassed for being such a fan of the game when it really looked like this 7 game finals was engineered by the league. They even seemed to get the winner they desired all along.

Ah to be a fly on the wall for all of the stuff that goes on behind the curtain.
