    The cavs should just go back to what they did last year. Just post up lebron 50 times a game and slow the game down.

    Yup. And get mugged by 2-3 people at all times who does not only focus to stop him but confuse his passing lanes. Also, GSW players recovers fast on each of their defensive assignments. That's the primary difference between the other teams Cavs faced in the playoffs and GSW. GSW got enough people to stop LBJ from wreaking havoc inside. Varejao and Ezeli are perfect big players even if they play for spot minutes especially Varejao's 3 minutes, which are all positive.

    They are giving Lebron easy 15 foot midrange jumpers and he's not taking them.

    Bet dubs. It's at -6.5 as of right now. Cavs can't beat this team im sure they will cover the spread and win by atleast 10.

    I also took GS last night made a quick 1000$

    Eastern Conference is weak AF. This is light work for GSW.

    This is what scares me about wagering on the warriors in game 2. After such a letdown, the opposing team usually come out with much more intensity and effort, ie OKC vs Spurs in game 2.

    Only thing is, Curry and Thompson also played/shot incredibly poorly and that isn't likely to happen again in game 2. Still leaning taking Warriors +6.5 but...

    Think I'm just going to wait for game 3 or just bet a small amount (20%-40% of usual) on game 2.

    My god, the Cavs gave up a ridiculous percentage to the Warriors bench.

    I am surprised this gif hasn't got any attention. What's context of this? Why was Kerr so mad?

    Anyone else think that Shumpert should start over JR Smith in this series?
