This Cavs team can guard and to date, is well coached. Offensively..
there is nobody capable of running offense on that roster - and JR is the only one who can actually create a shot for himself but that's only because he can make a difficult shot. Nobody in the history of the game playing this late into the season has been as responsible for generating this much offense.
'Trash' is subjective, but don't try to paint this supporting cast as anything but the worst supporting group in a Finals series. You're either lying or an imbecile.
But this phase 1, two more wins away from Golden State being a 'fraud' to start with.

Tell me how good that all star 3 point trophy is helping GS shoot?
Everyone know the finals turns into something else. If the Cavs as a team is so bad why is dova killing curry? Why is klay useless? Why is green Mia? I mean things are what they are. You want to go accomplishments when that's all out the window. Cavs team isnt bad.

movgov one of the leading shot blockers in the L , tristan thompson good as well. one of if not the best offensive rebounding centers. they can protect the paint , have size and defend well.
i may not like him but jr focused is talented af . former 6th man of the year .
not to mention lj , i may hate him but hes a great player but the narrative that hes doing it with trash is ridiculous. this is far from being as bad as that 07 cavs team.

Your anti-LeBron agenda being based on your pro-Jordan agenda is so sadly and blatantly obvious, b.
LeBron is accomplishing things Jordan never did; he has also failed in ways Jordan never did.
Relax and enjoy, man.
Or don't. Whatever.Just saying it's blatantly obvious and predictable how you're going to respond, and why.
Im as cool as the other side of the pillow
Just not with the slurping that alot of ppl are doing with ole boy

This is really all that needs to be said about this
at acting like a supporting cast of Tristan, JR, Shump, Mozgov, Delly, James Jones, and Mike Miller has any business being up 2-1 in a Finals series.

No, it's just people are tired of hearing Lebron is doing something with nothing when his team is clearly something. Its a team sport. Lebron loses every one of these games 5 on 1. Just because a player doesn't have a ton of trophies doesn't mean they aren't able to be great in the finals.
(by the players without awards standpoint, Wilt and Bill absolutely CRUSH LeBron and MJ as the GOAT, but watevs)

I think some may argue that this is the most talented and complete roster Lebron has had

Hope LeBron doesn't throw his back out carrying all his teammates on offense

[quote name="CP1708"]Miller, Jones, Perkins, and Marion all won titles.[/quote]First one won because of Bron, so that's not helping disprove the narrative. I know that's not what you're trying to do, anyways. Second one won partially because of Bron (didn't he won in 06?) Last 2 are hardly even contributing.
[quote name="CP1708"]Shump is a defensive specialist.[/quote]Subjective. No different than "He's an NBA talent." Of course to be an NBA talent, you have to be good at SOMEthing. He's good at defense. Still doesn't make the entire roster 'not trash'.
[quote name="CP1708"]Jones a shooting/spacing specialist.[/quote]See above.
[quote name="CP1708"]Thompson a rebounding specialist.[/quote]Absolutely a beast. But see above.

@ saying the Cavs Aren't a team full of bums. Look. They're not totally worthless, but look at this starting unit. Got JR, Shump and Mosgov who were aquired mid season. Got a backup point in there. No bench. Why do y'all think Lebron is playing so many minutes and basically having to do everything? Check that Synergy tweet or whatever.
Then you look at the other side of the ball. Got people telling me before the playoffs a 67 win team or better has always won the championship. Got the MVP who people are talking about as the best shooter ever. Talking about the best shooting backcourt ever. Got a Draymond Green who people thought should win MIP or DPOY. A team who lost at home, less than we have fingers on one hand, this whole year. Best road team this year. A team who put up 110PPG this season and has cracked 100 once in Game 1 due to OT. And hasn't put up 100 the next two games.
This series isn't over. But it's damn close. I read a SB Nation article with the opening statement that said once is luck. Twice is coincidence. Three times and it's a pattern. That's what we're seeing with this Cavs D on this Warriors O. I haven't seen the Splash Brothers collectively dominate, and if one does, who's the other Warrior or two who's going to chip in? Green been ghost. Bogut been useless. Barnes ghost last night. DAVID LEE is going to save the day Game 4 and onward?
If the Cavs win, it's gotta be one of the bigger upsets we've seen come Finals time. Period. People can point to the poll at the top of the page, but start reading this thread the week leading up to the Finals. Majority gave the Cavs two games. At most. Through three games, they have two already.

This is the definition of rattled. I never liked Draymond shooting that three so often to begin with, but now is not the time to stop doing what got you here.
