    The very bad thing for the Cavs is game 3 to 4 is the only instance where there isn't two days off. Watching LeBron at the end, he was totally dog tired. I believe that is why he was on his heels and not ready to contest KD's dagger 3. It was be hard for even him to recover bring his "A" game Friday.

    There is no one competing with warriors. They have 2 mvps, 2 all-nba caliber players, and 2 very good bench players.

    Meh.

    Hes really good but he made it a lot easier by joining this team. Literally if you double him, his teammates will make you pay.

    Westbrook sucked as well, people never realize it because by the time the end of the game comes he has really great numbers but in the end you can count on him shooting his team out of games. He did that with Durant, the media would always whine that at the end of the games he would never pass it to Durant.

    Too bad he didn't, maybe Durant wouldn't have left OKC then.

    Is that a real quote? People need to get off this triple double tip, but he is the best player in the league.

    A ring is a ring, no matter how easy it is.
    Congrats KD. Congrats for walking into 5 more easy rings after this one lol.

    He's averaging 30 points and hitting clutch shot. Not just joining a 73 win team. He's leading this ALL TIME GREAT TEAM. They would have been swept by Cavs if not for KD

    KD couldnot not save his life at OKC when it counted because he had to do so many things. Of course he's the best now on this team.

    Didn't outcoach when it counted. I knew that time out with one minute left would bite him in the ass.

    LeBron and Kyrie can't get it done with 41 points each.

    They need to put up 50-15-15 EACH for the rest of the series, play perfect defense, and never sit.

    It will be interesting to see how the rest of the NBA reacts to this.

    I'm with the commish on this, I think it is silly to pencil them in for 5 rings. Teams will react. Some teams will give up, jettison their stars, and get lottery happy. That's when other teams that already have stars pounce.

    Also, other stars will realize they can't win on their own. You are going to see another superteam pop up. Who knows where it will be at, but it will have to be with a team that already has a star...or Chris Paul joining the Spurs for less money...

    Max level superstars care about money and future player negotiation power/leverage in NBPA negotations more than rings. Chris Paul might take a bit less, but for there to be a team to challenge GSW, max level superstars are going to have to take 1/3 of what they are worth.

    Again, Lebron had a great statline. But where exactly was he in the final minutes of the game? KD completely owned this game in the clutch. Lebron lowkey disappears in the 4th and ya'll make excuses
