^^ mozgov or no mozgov (along with the question of how to play him), go small & match up with gsw vs go big, i can see arguments for both sides. the thing is, as a coach you can only put one lineup out there. personally, i didnt think putting iggy in the starting 5 was that big of a genius move by kerr. over a 7-game series, the odds should usually be on the side of the better team, which i suspect is the gsw in this case...
Great Game! I think tonight was Stephen Curry's best game in the finals. 1 more win to go...and I'm about to cry..WE BELIEVE. Some posters are saying Curry doesn't deserve Finals MVP if they win. In 5 games in the Finals his stats are: 26.2 PPG, .447 FG%, .407 3pt%, 5.0 REB, 6.0 AST, 1.6 STL...You can argue that Iguodala should be finals MVP but let's not act like Curry's numbers are not MVP worthy.
I'm happy for the Warriors if they win, some guys are truly deserving: Iguodala, Curry, Klay, Barnes & let's not forget Shaun Livingston, for all he's been through, who would've thought he would come back and one day win a ring. That being said, I truly believe if we had just one guy like Barnes (taking it to the basket strong and hit a consistent 3, something I wish TJ would've developed into) and one more guy who would just hit his wide open threes, we could've beaten these Cavs / Warriors.
If this series ends in 6, Curry will get the FMVP. If it somehow goes to 7, Lebron will probably get the FMVP.
I don't think Shumpert's had that good of a Finals. We've already got Ariza who's a much better player.
Could this Cavs team without Lebron (and without Irving and Love) beat Philadelphia in a 7 game series? I think "no."
If GS win the finals, then Lebron would be the player who lost more finals than any other players in the NBA? Although it is not his problem, but some people still can say it.
Thanks for information. Well, what a sad story. How could this be real without a ring on the eight finals.
Does anyone still think Thompson is an all-star? The guy is one of the most overrated max players of all time. I still scratch my head on why the Warriors gave the guy that contract. The guy always pulls a Harden after making a mistake, or not get a call, e.g., turns to the ref with his hands in the air, while the other 9 players already on the other side of the court.
Lebron is done tomorrow. they should just be happy they actually got 2 games out of it. too much for one person to handle
Based on what? The guy made more stupid plays than anyone on the Warriors team, he made JR Smith look like the smartest NBA player out there.
I think blatt is an idiot for not playing mozgov. The cavs won with defense with no mozgov their d is terrible. He goes for 28-10 and the next game blatt doesn't play him. He should be running lebron mozgov pick and roll all game long.
if you actually followed him enough you would know he's an all star instead of basing it off of something you just saw and attribute that to his overall career thus far. btw jr smith has looked nothing close to smart this entire series and his whole career
Dude is an all star. The NBA season is long as fukk, then you have another marathon in the post season following. He made a clutch 3 last night in the remaining 2 or 3 mins in the game that put the Warriors up on top by like 7 or 8 pts. When they need him the most down the stretch, he's there to perform.
