    Superhuman LeBron fulfilling his destiny. I can't believe what I'm seeing out there from him. His effort seems to be rubbing off on the team as well.

    This would be the greatest accomplishment the NBA has ever seen. To me, it would elevate LeBron James to the pinnacle of NBA greatness.

    I think if we had Lull this year, we would have had it all.

    1969 -- Jerry West, Los Angeles
    Averaged 30.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and 7.5 assists in 18 playoff games as the Lakers lost to the Boston Celtics, 4-3. West has been the only NBA Finals MVP to play for a losing team.

    As much as we tout the Cavs in the first 3 games, I don't have a great feeling for game 4... It seemed like something clicked for the Warriors in the final quarter.

    Probably Kerr finding that using David Lee down low presents the opportunity to get Thompson in foul trouble.

    A lot of people seem ready to crown the Cavs but this Game 4 is pivotal. Cavs take it, they are up 3-1, GS takes it, they just have to win 2 home games.

    Don't think LeBron heard her. More like a reaction from the security.

    I'm worried too. Not so much about Curry going off in the 4th, but rather that the Cavs completely ran out of gas(which is partly why Curry went off). With their shortened rotation and the level of intensity they have to maintain defensively for 48 minutes, I don't know if they can do this for 2 more games.

    Also, there's the not-so-insignificant stat that the Warriors haven't lost 3 in a row all season long. Granted, that eventually caught up with the Rockets in the WCF, so the same fate may befall Golden State tomorrow night. But you'd think the Warriors will get their sh-t together and manage to pull out a win in Game 4.

    Blatt has to consider playing Marion or giving more minutes to James Jones / Mike Miller.

    Delly and Tristan Thompson absolutely drained from two games on defense and LeBron wearing himself out for 46 minutes a night.

    The guy is awesome for not keeping quiet and actually saying something to the lady. Classy fans smh. (To be fair, I'm sure fans at almost every arena say similar things to visiting players).

    I always knew he had it in him. Always.

    We are now finally seeing a glimpse of what this mans true capabilities are, averaging 40.5/12/8 thru three games.....in the Finals......it's literally the greatest finals performance of all time so far....and yet....people is still finding a way to hate on it, finding a way to knock it, finding a way to discount his performance. Its unbelievable.


    We are all witnesses.

    Don't you remember his series against the the magic. He averaged 38-8-8 on pretty good efficiency. He has been really good for a really long time.

    I think we're going to see a lot more David Lee in Game 4. He looked like his old self down the stretch, and got GS's offense going in a way that Draymond hasn't.

    GS is so deep. I think this series is far from over.
