[2017 NBA Finals] Golden State Warriors vs. Cleveland Cavaliers

So many alternative facts the refs doled out tonight it's not even funny. If it was a close game, both sides would be crying conspiracy.

 

Warriors can't beat Cavs.

I say Cavs in 7, again

Superteam Cavs

 

Refs should really call techs only when a player or coach looks like he is getting threatening or out of control.

The first tech Green was more agitated than average, I sort of understand. But the second one was just a normal reaction.

IOW, those techs shouldn't be happening at all for just "hand motions". That's just stupid. Let players blow off steam and let it go unless they are really out of control. For that second tech, Green got mad and made a hand motions for all of 2 seconds and then got himself under control. It was a ridiculous call.

 

If true that's better than if they retroactively assigned it to Kerr to avoid ejecting Green. But it's still bad because that second tech should never have been called to begin with. At the same time they let Green go when he was far more agitated in the first tech that everyone thought was on him.

Personally I think some refs are way too liberal with techs. Call it if a player or coach is getting out of control but if they react but start to calm down, let it go!

 

Agreed to an extent. I think Draymond gets away with being agitated about calls way more than anyone else I've ever seen. Other players like Dwight or Cousins get T'd up for what Draymond does easily.

The second tech was still bullshit though

 

*IF* Golden States loses the next game . . . . . .
They are up 3-2 going BACK to Cleveland

Does the pressure start to build

I'll go GS in 5 to close it out at home.

 

If they win another game, GOAT?

 

I wouldn't bet on that.

 

Thank God we don't hear "the undefeated playoff Warriors" for the rest of eternity..

 

It is nice to sit the Warriors get spanked. The series should of been 2-2. If Lebron sweep the final games, he'll be only below MJ (6-0 in Finals) in my book.

 

The Cavs shot 53% and the Warriors 28% from 3. This is the kind of "variance" games Morey hopes the Rockets may pull out to defeat the Warriors. But how many times can it be repeated in a 7-game series?

 

This was our only hope, and our dream has come true.

All is right with the world.

 

There is no drama in this series but the faux tough guy acts.
Kd man, is talking so much trash from what I see in the highlights.
The guy is on a juggernaut and he's jawing with everybody. smh
We get it kd, you are the best.

 

KD reminds me of those guys who would mod their Xbox then go talk trash while playing Halo. Like we get it, you live in your moms garage, you're 35, and you have a small penis. Woo, you won by stacking the deck in your favor, and now you're talking trash. Dream gets to talk trash, Jordan gets to talk trash, you don't get squat. Take your ring and leave.

 

We'll see if the Cavs can keep this up. But this game feels like an aberration: Cleveland shooting is abnormally hot even considering how open many of those shots are. Warriors missed a good number of shots they made at a decent clip in the past.

Maybe it happens again, maybe not. It just feels like what Jeff Van Gundy would call a "make or miss league" game.

 

wrong thread.
