    If you're a team that's coming back from being down 3-1...you're happy about a game 7. If you're team is up 3-1 and it goes to a game 7...you're not happy. If this series goes to game 7...Cleveland will have the psychological advantage. If you're the Cavaliers you're feeling good about yourself. If you're the Warriors..you're doubting yourself cause you couldn't get the job done in games 5 or 6. Cavaliers will win the Championship if Warriors lose game 6!:cool:

    When refs have let them get more physical... as they have the last two finals... Curry's numbers have regressed, injury or not.

    No surprise. It was laughable that people on ESPN were speculating that he could maybe be back in this series.

    TNT crew should do the finals. The ESPN crew is so boring.

    If you were the Cavs coach would you play Mosgov the rest of the playoffs or no?

    They key for the Cavs is to bait Green into another flagrant foul.

    I guess he'll miss Olympics, too. That would suck for him and Australia. Might be their best team ever.

    But they are still hoping:

    I have a strong belief that his statement is pointless and he should be focused on game 6.

    I have a strong belief that it's very easy to not hit people in the nuts.

    The funny thing is if he just hadn't unnecessarily tackled Beasley to the floor at the end of Game 3 in the first round, he wouldn't have been suspended.
