    Yup, he's single-handedly keeping the Cavs in the game only to fizzle in the 4th quarter. Pace is still the Cavs enemy. Warriors are more than happy to oblige and dance full court with LeBron.

    To me Lebron has been the best individual player again this Finals.

    KD is getting all the pub... but when I'm just watching on the court the court Lebron remains that force of nature out there.

    Klay Thompson has 16 points with 5 minutes left in the 1st quarter. Nevermind curry and durant that have won the last 3 MVP's and Iguadola that won a Finals MVP. And that Draymond guy.

    lebron off the floor.

    kyrie can't do ****.

    mvp steph takes over.

    like i said that gap from the 2nd to 8th best players on the warriors vs. 2nd to 8th best player on the cavs is massive.

    I don't know maybe let Irving run the offense? He's the point guard after all.

    Last year the Cavs turned around the series when Kyrie stepped up to match LeBron. That is not happening so far this year because Thompson and Durant have neutralized him.

    The way Cavs are playing on offense would blow out almost any other team!
    31 points on FG 57.9% 2 ptr 42.9%
    Those are amazing offensive stats.

    This kind of offense is what blew out the Raptors and Celtics as they simply couldn't keep up. Warriors though CAN and are more than happy to play high pace shoot-out basketball.

    Check this out. In the 1st quarter:

    LeBron is +2 in 10 mins
    Cavs are -10 the other 2 mins

    The Warriors came out focused, absorbed the worst blow the Cavs could deliver and lead by 8.

    Something weird has to happen for the Cavs to win. An injury, ejection or other event. Of course, if Kyrie Irving would play worth a dime, that would help a lot.

    Problem with Irving running the offense is that he might decide to go Westbrook and force up shots on Klay.
