He had great shooting nights in the Rockets series and it was often still a coin-flip game. The Warriors get lucky. The Rockets had many chances to win in that series and blew it themselves. LeBron is a stronger leader than Harden and will lead the Cavs to victory in this series.
And they were fully healthy for that too....which was lucky. Point is they were primed to be another team that did great in the regular season only to falter in the post-season, but injuries to starters hit literally every team they've played in the post-season.....and both the Rockets and now Cavs are down 2 starters, yet the Dubs are just barely getting by. It's not a stretch to point out that if fully healthy the Warriors probably never get past the Rockets....hell with a fully healthy Conley, they may not have even made it to the Rockets. This season has fluke written all over it.
What's crazy is the rocket lost the first 2 games by 5 points combined a few possessions different and the rockets woulda been up 2-0, this is great basketball..... I want the cavs to win bad I'm a big Lebron fan and he is a legend. I'm just not ready to hear more curry/Kerr slurp fest if they win. Curry is a good player but he's not nearly good enough to be getting the praise he's been getting. Nice player superstar yes but not legend like Lebron im trying to see greatness, curry has a stacked team and shoots 15 3s when his shots not falling he has nothing else to fall back on and his game is maxed out he can't get better his body won't allow it. I'm with all the people that say put curry in harden or lebrons shoes and run that style offense and see how good he is? I bet he woulda been bounced in the 1st round. Dudes good but he ain't on harden level and def not lebrons. Lebron and harden only two players that can have a whole offense revolve around them give harden more time and he will win us some rings it took bron a while to figure it out and he's been doing pretty good his last 5 years. Harden did just take us to our first WCF in forever the sky is not falling clutchfans and GSW is not unbeatable nor a budding dynasty.
It was a coin flip game because they Cavs shot 32% that's not normal either. The only thing that is VERY LIKELY going to come game after game is the Cavs are going to dominate the glass, if they can stay within 5-10% shooting of the Warriors and keep up dominating the glass, they have a shot in every game.
The refs love fest for Golden State needs to end immediately. Lopsided officiating- GSW getting away with hacks all game!
It's that MVP trophy... Although I still believe Harden was the true MVP, LeBron was way more deserving than Curry. There is no denying his talent/skills but Curry doesn't have to have a good game for them to win. Today was a perfect example of that. He was absolutely terrible but the Warriors still managed to push it to OT and almost win.
I dunno but what Lebron did tonight was straight up legendary. If the Cavs win this series without two all-stars, without home court against the MVP and a 67 win team then that would have to go up as about the most impressive thing I've seen in a damn long time.
I'm tired of the Warriors/Curry love fest too but I do believe we're looking at a dynasty. As long as they maintain their core and stay healthy, they will dominate for at least the next 2-3 years... I still hope they lose though.
Carl speaks the truth. I was just looking at the line up the Cavs had on the floor and wondered how they were still in the game. 3 minutes left up a bunch Cavs had James Jones, Shumpert, JR, Delly, and Lebron on the court. ouch. If Lebron ends up winning a championship this year he deserves all the praise. He should retire and run for office.
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to i3artow i3aller again. Seriously, how big is your HD? How fast is your processor!?
I think it's Curry saying he wanted to bring a NBA championship to his birth place (Akron, OH) which is also Lebron where was born and raised.
How can you possibly say that? Are you just clueless or what? I think some of you people barely paid attention to the NBA outside of the Rox this season and are now talking out of your ass. Name me a team that has the kind of point differential GSW this season while also having an elite defense AND elite offense at the same time that 'faltered' in the post-season? Come correct or don't come at all.
