    I'm really rooting for Lebron.

    He would make HISTORY.

    Plus I hate that pos curry and his "splash" brother who think they are entitled.

    Lebron came to play.

    I really hope they win Game 4 and it's over!! Just need Game 4!!!

    Really means that we should probably have an asterisk next to MJ's career because he ducked Delly the whole time.

    Yeah, he ain't bad. Watching this series, I've come to realize just how badly I want to see Curry and Golden State beaten by Cleveland. This is a trip.

    Warriors played the Grizzlies in round 2 without Mike Conley for part of the series and were losing the series until Tony Allen. Got hurt.

    Warriors play Rockets in round 3 without two starters and are lucky to not be down 2-0 to start the series.

    Warriors play the Cavs in the Finals and are losing game 1 by double digits when Kyrie Irving gets hurt. Cavs are without two all stars and have a 6-7 man rotation and are trailing 2-1 and could easily be down 3-0.

    Maybe people are starting to realize the Warriors are good, but not THAT good.

    The Warriors will win the title (would have lost in 6 to a healthy Cavs team) but hopefully all this garbage about them being one of the best teams ever stops.

    2011 will always be an un-wipeable **** stain on the resume. That series was beyond atrocious. Getting locked up by JJ Barea? Even an average performance that series would've won a title.

    We are all witnessing some of the greatest basketball in the history of the league. It's comparable to Olajuwon 20 years ago or Wilt 50 years ago. Superior basketball by the King.

    When Curry got hot it was Shumpert and Thompson in the fold. So it might not roll into the next game. Not sure why Cleveland did that.

    If Lebron wins this series he's the GOAT. Who agrees?

    Better than taking a two week break during the playoffs.

    Yeah, I can understand that, and definitely screw the Jazz, was so happy to watch Rockets special last night when Houston beat them, didn't like Stockton/Malone and certainly didn't like Williams/Boozer either.

    The Dallas series was inexcusable, but there's no great shame losing to a team with 5 rings in the past decade.

    Credit should also be given to the Cav's defense. Superstar plays defense.
