    maybe everyone was right and he didn't give a **** or he got paid to throw the game. Who cares, I commend him for being smart and doing so because he knows better than to waste his time against the Warriors

    how many times they need to sweep the Rockets? And now they have KD

    Golden State and KD are the only team in the league that can get that Offensive Foul call on Lebron
    Cause KD was moving . .. and now we learn that your don't have to be set

    I love JVG pointing out the carrying that is never call that moves KD from ELITE to unguardable

    I hate that superstar teams get a different set of rules than the rest of the league

    There were like 5 GSW shots that rolled off the rim. You can count on those going in next half. It's over. Warriors in 5.

    I'm just making a Frauen joke I already knew a combination of Mike Antni x Ames Frauen would never beat a real team in a 7 game series

    When you consider the TO difference (12 to 1), Cavs are doing well trailing by only 8. It's ridiculous the Warriors have 18 more FGAs.

    If the Cavs don't find some sort of comfort zone in half court, LeBron might have to go into MJ mode for them to have a chance tonight.

    On the Warriors side, Draymond and Klay are playing nervous on offense. If they shake that off, Warriors will take game 1 easily.

    Lebron is looking real Harden-esque right now with 7 turnovers in the 1st half

    neither can 28 other NBA teams. In fact the 2 other finalists pretty much got swept including a number one seed.

    are you upset because of James Harden or because the Rockets don't have 5 All-Stars on their team?

    That's insane.

    It's not good when Harden does it. It's not good when Lebron does it. Doesn't matter who does it... can't turn the ball over like that.

    The GSW haven't been great protecting the ball themselves this post-season, but they make up for it usually by forcing turnovers the other way.

    Neither team is playing that well. GSW and KD are doing well almost by default since all of KD's points are dunks or like layups with Irving guarding him, lol.

    But Klay and Dray are playing pretty poor and Steph isn't doing anything special.

    Cavs "SHOULD" have the lead but for the turnovers leading to KD dunks. He has 6 first half dunks having never dunked the ball more than 4 times in a playoff game before.

    James Harden would've been crucified. but because LeBron is against the Warriors it's OK, however when James Harden does this against the Warriors he is a terrible human being.

    Last series he was actually a net positive just by being a threat out there. Doesn't work against Warriors though.

    The Rockets are very far away from playing at the level that both of these teams are capable of playing at. Very far.
