The Warriors had the best road record in the HISTORY of the league this season, and they OBLITERATED the Cavs on their home court this year. It's hard to imagine the Dubs NOT winning a game in Cleveland.
Their best chance to extend the series anyway. Cleveland was fucked from the jump... the Warriors are just a better team. A more resilient team as well, with more heart. And a much SMARTER team as well. "Like I said before", the Cavs are front runners. And on top of being front runners, they're pretty damn dumb. I mean, Bron obviously has a very high bball IQ, but the rest of the team is comprised of low IQ guys. JR Stiff? LMAO! Cavs don't have the heart, the brains, nor the mental toughness to get back in this series. Shit, Love has quit already.
Cavs medical staff won't let him on the floor. Probably figure they have a better chance without him anyways. Put Channing Frye out there for 3's, hope J.R. Smith plays better and let Lebron, Tristan and Mozgov gobble up his rebounds. Like I said earlier, Refs will make sure Bogut gets in foul trouble early to open up Tristan and Mozgov's game.
Tonight is Cleveland's LAST chance to at least preserve some dignity. They lose tonight, and I assure you.... it's a sweep. Cavs will mentally quit if they lose tonight.
Without Question, Tonight is 1 Of, If Not THE Biggest Game of LeBron James' Career.. Must Win for his Squad, but Even if That Doesn't Come to Fruition, Bron MUST Play Well Tonight...He's Gotta Go Down Swinging...30-35+ Points or an EFFICIENT Triple Double... REED
Nah man, you just watch that shitty Skip Bayless or something? Lebron has two titles already. Cleveland has barely a snowballs chance in hell whether they win or lose tonight. This game means very little in the scope of Lebron James career. 15 years from now, no-one is going to look back on Lebron's career and go, "remember Game 3 of the 2016 Finals, Lebron really fucked up" or "Lebron gets Triple-Double, but the Cavs lost the series anyways." Only way this means absolutely anything in Lebrons career, is if somehow the Cavs pull a hail mary and win the entire series.....and this game happens to be the turning point.
He'll definitely shoot 12+ free throws. I'd be surprised if he had a low turnover rate, unless Kyrie stops playing so trashy and Lebron doesn't have to handle the ball quite as much as he has lately.
I'm not sure anymore. If they're gonna win, they had better win big. GS is AMAZINGLY good at winning close games. Their crunch time execution is 10x better than Cleveland's. So, the Cavs better rout the Dubs if they're gonna win.
the turnovers james has been committing are on plays he routinely completes. he just hasnt been playing as well as earlier in this playoff or last season. chalk that up to the warriors defenders having good hands to swipe at the ball, or whatever, but a lot of these are unforced errors
True, I just think a lot of that has to do with him thinking he has to do too much, so he gets caught in these brain farts thinking too far ahead. His teammates have to give him a reason for him to trust them more.
Nah, REED Couldn't Tell You the Last Time he's Seen or Heard from Skip Bayless... Bron's on the Verge of Being 2-5 in the Finals...If that Transpires, He Needs to Go Out with Borderline EPIC #'s, like Last Season...That Way, the Narrative Will Be "He just Didn't Have the HELP to Compete with a Team as Deeeeeeep as Golden State".... If Cleveland Bows Out MEEKLY, and Bron DOESNT Play Well in the Process, it'll Chip Away at his Legacy, if Only Slightly...At BEST, It Will Illustrate he's Jumped the Shark and is No Looooooonger Capable of Dialing Up Great Performances on Command... REED
Without Ray Allen bailing him out, Lebron is 1-6 in the finals. Chalk that up Ray's miracle shot AND the Spurs having an epic meltdown. Poor Lebron. Guy just never had any frickin HELP.... *rolls eyes*
You Can Play THAT Game w/Just about ANY Player from ANY Series, Bruh... The Bottom Line is, Ray Allen is RENOWN for Making 3's...He was WIDEthefuckOPEN and Hit a Shot he Normally Makes...No Different than Jon Paxson and Steve Kerr Hitting Game Winning Shots for Jordan's Bulls, Back in the Day... The Fact is, Bron HASN'T Really Had Much Help in the Finals...The 1st Cleveland Team he Led to the Finals was THE Least Talented Squad (Man for Man) to Ever Play for a Championship...Bron's First 2 Miami Teams were Stout, but His Last Miami Team Contributed NATHAN...Ditto for Last Year's Cleveland Squad... Compare that w/Steph Curry, Who WASN'T his Teams Best Player in the Conference Finals and HASN'T Been his Teams Best Player in the Finals...& WASN'T the MVP of Last Year's Finals Either...Bron has NEVER Been in a Situation where he DOESN'T Have to Carry the Vast Majority of the Load AND Wins a Championship... That's a FACT... REED:kidcool:
Cavaliers will give it a good fight and create drama but will it be enough to win tonight? I don't think so
What's with the careless turnovers by James? Getting older shouldn't mean a decline in your ball handling or decision making
Nah, the Refs Called it Pretty EVEN, in REED's Opinion...In Fact, Golden State Almost Shot 10 MORE Free Throws than Cleveland Did, DESPITE Being the Road Squad... REED:hammert:
When You're 6'8, 260lbs, You Should EXPECT Your Ball Handling and Perimeter Play to DIMINISH, Eventually...Bron is an Athletic FREAK...But Mother Nature/Father Time Catches Up w/EVERYBODY... Given the QUALITY of Golden State's Guards/Wings, Coupled w/Bron's AGE, it's Not Earth Shattering that he's Struggling in Ballhandling Situations...EFFECTIVE Ballhandling is ALL About REFLEXES, Which Fades... REED:hammert:
The "best" player in the world, NBA MVP, hasn't played well all series. phonetap wonders when the general public will point this out. Everyone is quick to point out when Lebron has a bad game and questions his entire legacy for it, .
If There's Remaining Doubt on WHO "The BEST Player in the NBA" TRULY Is, People Just AREN'T Watching... For the 9th CONSECUTIVE Game in the NBA Finals, Bron has SHAT Upon Steph Curry, Statistically...When On the Court Simultaneously, the GULF in Bron and Steph's Sheer IMPACT is NOfuckingCONTEST... Case DISMISSED... REED:hammert:
Drake Murders Hanzy http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-b...ame-shot-and-killed-in-toronto-190415371.html
Hear you loud and clear brother REED. phonetap is going to remain silent on Lebron shitting all over Curry statistically until after the series is over. Point being, you and phonetap know, if Bron out plays Steph every game from then until game 6 people will remain silent on who is really better. But let Curry have a better game 7 (for the championship) than Bron and it would wipe out all the games Bron outplayed him in their minds. Steph will be hailed as the worlds best even being outplayed (potentially 12 out of 13 games).
