    Thompson, Barnes, Curry all hit 3s. LeBron has to score on straight possessions by himself.

    I feel bad for LeBron.

    Love's not doing CRAP.

    You are not supposed to have energy to play good defense if you are scoring so much. ;)

    Regarding the post in garm asking of your trade love for Howard. Heck no! Love is horrible.

    Love is straight garbage. Can't play defense, can't get his own shot if he catches with a defender already on him, while turning it over.

    He did pretty good guarding Irving.

    Wouldn't even trade the rights to Sergio Loll for Love

    LOL the last possession shows why Love isn't worth the max while Barnes is a good deal at ~20M: Barnes doesn't need the ball to contribute, even when his shot is off Barnes can contribute on help defense and makes small plays to help the team. Love oth is just a liability if he's not scoring the ball, he's trying to force it tonight but as usual he's misfiring on O.

    Also this series is done, no Green and the Cavs still can't beat GSW. More importantly the Cavs chemistry is just terrible, you can see how upset James is, to be honest he should be upset at himself for forcing the Love trade and for running his real coach out of town. He may be the best player in the world but that doesn't mean he can coach and GM better than guys who've been doing it longer than James has been alive.

    Cleveland is relying on a lot of isoball, I don't know if that is gonna last in the end.

    It's gotten them into a 1-3 hole, so I don't think it's going to last.

    Ray Allen holds the record for most 3-pointers made in a Finals game with 8 (in 2010 vs the Lakers).

    Klay Thompson had 6 in the first half tonight. Thompson already holds the single-game playoff record, when he made 11 in Game 6 of the conference finals against OKC.

    i actually think cleveland will win. thought it before this game and still do. bron and kyrie can get whatever they want. unless GS centers show up, cleveland should win.

    warriors of course can just shoot the cavs out the building but i think the probability of kyrie and lebron getting baskets at the rim whenever they went is higher than klay shooting at 70%.

    what a classic game!

    Bogut has 4 fouls in 6 minutes of burn


    Factor in no Dray, and a Cavs loss tonight would be all the more embarrassing.

    Bogut out for the playoffs, that looked bad.

    At the lightest it is a severe sprain, looked like torn ligaments to me.
