2017 NBA FINALS THREAD. PART III

[NickFolarin]

Where did I hear JJ Redick could find a way to the Warriors?

"Warriors games are boring for me to watch now because the team I want to win isn't winning and KD and Curry are playing too good for me to make fun of"

^ 80% of this thread

Or they're too good that none of the games are close

Not that hard to figure out... Warriors been one of the top defensive teams in the league for he last 2-3 years... It will make up for a lot of holes in your defense. A lot of people thinks Curry is a solid defender. Put him on this Cavs team, he probably look worst than Kyrie.

Yeah, that could be true. The coaching staff established a really good system where everyone flourishes on defense.

Steph's defense isn't great, but I think it's bearable.

Yikes, I hope that doesn't happen. I thought he was seeking big money?

Or they're too good that none of the games are close

I think that's one thing that I didn't enjoy this season. A lot of the game were blowouts and made me lose interest or not have interest in watching the games.

I guess you could say, as a Warriors fan, we've gotten spoiled with that luxury.

KD was already impossible to guard..but now he can play with zero threat of the defense being able to double team. Lebron is till the best player in this series but GS got 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.

Didn't you and every other Cavs/LeBron fan say Kyrie > Curry before this series and that Kyrie owns his soul?

Steph hardly guards the opposing point guards... Warriors can afford to hide him because they have defenders all over floor. Their best shot blocker don't even play that much.

 

[antidope]

Lue needs to wash his face and run that 1/3 PNR

I think TT is getting a bad hand in the series. They had LeBron at the 5 at a point last night...

You can't beat GS trying to play like GS.

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

Hope Lebron goes off next game.

Would like this to be competitive from here-on-out.

This postseason has been trash.

Lebron can go off all he wants... It won't mean anything without the rest stepping up. JR/TT straight pulling a Houdini so far.

Exactly. You do that, you get LeBron tired. He looked winded when they showed him sitting on the bench.

 

[NickFolarin]

Last team to beat the Warriors this season was the Miami Heat.

Led by Dion "Kobe Wade" Waiters....

 I'm kind of curious where he ends up next season. Dude was so hyped when the Heat won that game lol

Cavs gotta play D man. No way you keep giving up 30+ in the first quarter and expect to win. Although it was close through halftime. I just don't know if the Cavs got it in them to actually lock in and play D 

 

[PatRiley]

Lebron trying to play godfather by getting all his boys paid caught up to him, again. They're simply outmatched.

And what do you do when GSW traps PNR and forces TT to make plays?

He's getting out rebounded by Steph. Zaza has more of an impact and he plays 6 minutes

Game 3 on Saturday is in Cleveland. It should help.

 

[wavycrocket]

So now Steph is considered a top 3 player in the world again huh?

When we were trying to tell y'all that Bron, KD and Steph sit at a different table.....y'all kept talking about Harden, Russ.

 

[WASHED KING]

Didn't you and every other Cavs/LeBron fan say Kyrie > Curry before this series and that Kyrie owns his soul?

Nope not I. Kyrie isn't even a top 5 PG in my opinion.

 

[trueprada]

114 not enough 

 

[junglejim]

Nope not I. Kyrie isn't even a top 5 PG in my opinion.

Only when they are losing and it helps your narrative.

Russ would be doing the same thing on that Warriors squad

I've never been a Kyrie stan, besides scoring he's useless. He went to Dook..Idk why y'all expected more from him.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Lebron hasn't been the best player in this series either. Might even be third. He's been way too quiet in the 3rd and has really done all his scoring in transition

Of course he can only do so much
