2016 NBA Finals: Golden State vs. Cleveland

"You know it's all about getting one (Doritos taco) for the land!"
-Lebron

 

There's clearly much more than an 1 inch of height difference between them.

 

Something like this has happened in each and every round for GS this postseason. It's neither a coincidence nor a fluke. Game 4 @ HOU, Game 4 @ POR, Game 6 @ OKC, and tonight (with all 4 of these occurrences happening on the road). GS won each of those games coming back from double-digit deficits, completely destroyed the will of those teams, and ended those series in the very next game in front of their home crowd. The same thing will happen on Monday night as well.

 

if Lebron want to remain relevant when his athleticism begin to decline, he'll need to work on his jumpshot. for 2 seasons in a row now, he have down in the low 30% range when he's not at the rim.

 

Even though this game was closer than the score indicated, every game this series has been decided by double digits. 15, 33, 30, and 11.

I can't remember another NBA finals like this

 

Where Lebron jock lovers at now days?

 

Lebron should get more foul calls and free throws. Just being objective here.

He gets hacked when he goes up strong.

 

Are you making jokes?

 

Yeah, where is tmac_1?

 

Lebron is pushing 32. It's not inconceivable that his best days are behind him already.

 

The only other known unstoppable shooter in the last 10 yrs that would have made this series interesting is prime Dirk Norwitzki. Can you imagine if the Cavs some how had that Dirk instead of K. Love in this line up?

 

Maybe LeBron takes mma classes. Who knows. I wouldn't go by whoever had the lower profile rise to the NBA to be the superior fighter.

Also LeBron is athletic as they come.

 

Not intentionally but have you been watching these finals?

 

I'm a big Lebron fan but this season's failure is 100% due to his hubris. He let being the best player in the league get to his head and he started he's so good he can mess with GM and coaching decisions. Who knows, maybe they wouldn't be in this spot if he gave Blatt the respect his deserved and ran his plays instead of running him out of town.

Also, brilliant move to trade Wiggins for Love, Lebron. That really paid off big time

If they want to salvage this season they shouldn't give Love any minutes at all next game.

 

They are better without Love

 

Unless Draymond is a trained fighter, Lebron would likely win a fight in a controlled environment. It would take a pretty big difference in fighting skill to make up for 1-2 inches of length and 20-30 lbs.

 

Have you watched wiggins? He completely sucks so far in his 2 seasons

 

Totally agree about Lebron here. The Cavs deserve everything bad that happens to them. Things would not have gone down like this is Pat Riley was running the show in Cleveland.

 

Draymond seems more physically adept at a fight. It's no knock on James, but he doesn't seem to have 'fighter' in him. Lebron has like 4 inches of height on Draymond but Green seems like he has as long or longer arms than James.
