It's the series most nba fans wanted (except for those of playoff teams like okc). Last year Cleveland won two games w/o curry and love. Will those two help beat golden state two more times?
In the last two games vs toronto, lue extended outside pressure trapping the raptor guards with great success. Curry and Thompson are a step above, but you wonder if the Cavs will continue that strategy and risk giving up twos to avoid hs hitting 3s

Curry and Thompson are a step above, but you wonder if the Cavs will continue that strategy and risk giving up twos to avoid hs hitting 3s i'm super pumped to watch this series!! insanely elite talents all over the court on both teams. like generational talents. lebron averaged over 35 points per game in the finals last year and nearly 10 assists per game. and this year, he's as motivated and as productive with a healthy supporting cast. steph curry and klay thompson literally shot 55% from three over the last 2 games against okc. how do you defend their range? you really can't. you just have to either outscore them or hope they miss. i give golden state a 51% chance to win, cleveland 49%. obviously golden state all season has been by far the best team in the league but cleveland has been playing at a crazy level since the playoffs started. if golden state's shooting cools off, cleveland will have a great chance. |

Well the Cavs did a nice job taking curry and Thompson out of their game, but the rest of the Warriors stepped up big time. I think their bench had more than half of the 104 points. Plus once Cleveland came back from 14 down to take the lead late in the 3rd, they could not buy a bucket inside. So many missed shots down low. Plus Lebron did not have a good floor game. Seemed like he had as many turnovers as assists (thinks he had 9 assists). You can't shoot 35% from the field and expect to beat golden state. |

If Curry play and Thompson can have such an off game and the Dubs still win by 15 it doesn't bode well for the Cavs. Lots of talk of the brooms coming out 'round these parts. I believe we're seeing another dynasty in the making. |

I believe we're seeing another dynasty in the making. one win = brooms. that always is entertaining from fans in a 7 game series. you could also say that the rest of the warriors can't keep shooting like they did last night. curry/thompson shot 8-27, less than 30%. the rest of the team shot 35-60, 58%. i expect the cavs to continue attacking the splash bros on defense, but doing a better job of rotating down low. cleveland also got the kind of shots they wanted, that they need, to win, last night, inside the lane. they just need to finish. last year the warriors made a late run in ot to win game 1 by 8, then the cavs came back and won the next 2. this series is far, far from over. but the cavs have to put the biscuit in the basket better to win this. |
