The comment about who is guarding who makes perfect sense when Kyrie had a better finals than Curry and hits the game winner yesterday. It's just about stepping up. Lebron is the man still, but Kyrie is doing is own against yellow Jesus.

And remember, Cavs weren't at full-strength against GS. They didn't have Smith. Up here, all that was on sports talk was how not having Smith would allow GS to crowd the lane more.

And I need to know...what's up with the ";" instead of periods.... Just curious. I know Mrfreddy has his way of typing too... lol

Even with Smith it didn't matter y'all was down 3-1 until James started plea coppin and dry snitchin to the league.. Y'all caught that life line that no Cavs fan want to admit lmaoo

Ummm...

I could have SWORN

SOMEONE posted that KD has Lebron number?

Yeah OK.
Match up and game stats they are neck and neck when they play against each other.. Record wise Bron teams won 16 of those games to the 4 that Durants teams won

So KD does his thing inspite of his team's on the losing end.. So I wouldn't say neither of them have a leg up one on one

Curry hasn't looked right...

And the way he sat there with the towel and didn't stand with his team to watch the last shot?

Says it all...

What Kerr taking one of his best players out of the game in a critical time? Kerr should get ripped a new one for that shit it served him no purpose taking Steph out you live and die with your best players on the floor..

I hope Bay Area sports heads called Kerr out

I'll say this...

If it was my knicks?

I would have performed the first act of Hamilton in front of the league offices if it meant going back and getting a foul call on the missed finger roll, Charles smith missed dunk and the Miami fight.

And any self respecting warriors fan would do the same...TWICE.

A win is a win fam...

I don't understand nothing about plea copping...

I want a chip and if you aint willing to do ANYTHING to go get it?

You don't deserve it.

If I were the Warriors I would play McGee more, he did not have a good game but he did cause Love to pick up a few fouls and he did make things difficult for the Cavs in the paint, next I would have rested Durant a little bit more, I know thats was a tough call with A.I. not playing well last game, but I think if they meet in the finals with the Cavs, its something they will have to do to save their legs.

Basically my point...

But Bron beat him head to head in the finals is a better all around player and has a winning record against him.

So how we gonna say KD got a leg up or they EQUAL?

The way these so called fans are now?

Even if kd wins a chip this year these nba historians gonna sat it don't count cause he was the Monstars.

Agreed on starting McGee at the 5 against the Cavs only

Starting him yes, but the problem comes when the Cavs have a shooter at the 5 slot.

So what y'all saying he should be paired up against TT.

Truth be told, David West didn't do a great job of keeping up with Deep Fyre.
Now what West did provide was offensive flow and points, so I guess that's a wash.

Irving is a very physical player who is a tough match up of Curry, even if you put Thompson on him, Curry still has to guard Shumpert and Liggins.
Usually vs other primer guards like Harden, and Westbrook, Curry is able to peel off of them and not be challenge with the other guards, but with the Cavs they have physical guards who offer no breaks for Curry. Kerr took Curry out in the game (illegally) after the review of the shot clock violation, to bring in Livingston on defense to help out vs Irving.

Cavs beat the Warriors by less than 5 points going back to game 5 till now

Is that all Currys lack of defense?

First off nobody wants to give Curry a pass for being injured...which he was!

But to be fair you can't pull the injury card when u lose...but be a warrior no pun intended when you win.

I ain't for the plea copping from ANYONE.

they lost period hell they almost lost to OKC.

It's over.

Now they created the MONSTARS.

So I ESPECIALLY ain't trying to hear sh*t from that side.

Just play.

Injuries bad calls tough schedule etc etc

Just stfu and play.

Which I didn't understand because Livingston didn't guard Drew...I think it was Klay.

If you are questioning Kerr's substitutions for the game then he better do a lot better in the finals if they meet, because I think that both Curry and Durant can be worn down with physical play especially when you make them play hard defense and this may be the reason why Durant tends to historically fall off in the 4th and why Curry numbers vs Irving is always down.
I know they want to shorten their bench vs the Cavs but if they do and make it into a war of attrition, who are you going to favor in a long series?

I get the logic behind "wearing them down" but the thing is they get their minutes on the bench. Kerr almost appears to pride himself on the fact that he can go long stretches with his star players on the bench. There are times when they have all the momentum and instead of closing the game out he puts in the second-tier players and gives them real minutes. Leads disappear. Rhythm is lost and his arrogance has led him to believe that his players can simply go out and establish things all over again. I know I'm rambling but I don't like the substitutions being made. Give the starters a few minutes here and there on the bench and let them match up.....

Teams are aware what they trying to do.
In the previous years teams were overwhelmed with the movement and shooting displays. Now those same plays are made, teams know what's coming now. Kyrie damn near had a triple double with 7 steals(2 or 3 was results of reads).

Team have adjusted to Lebron's cross court passes over the previous years.
At one point it's seemed like he connected on that shit every time. That was because that was something you're taught early on, you never make that pass. This fucker had should strength, vision and ball speed he got away with it. Defenders are now aware of it, so it's often picked off.

I felt it's a fucking shame as to how many back door passes the Dubs got. The deep ball does kill you, but damn sag off the ball some TT, pressure that ball some Jefferson(or whomever was guarding west), damn why y'all don't keep they hands up in passes lanes(when y'all do, the ball is often tipped)...



But as tated yesterday, that was a damn great game. It had the highest rating for that time slot in years(maybe 9 years)!!!

Good job NBA....

It's a good match up. It'll be interesting come playoffs. Truth is you can't dismiss the Spurs in a seven game series. You just don't know....

very solid points bro; his substitutions are not good at times; sometimes he overrates his system; they should have been more pic and rolls to punish love; but at the end of the day, GS turn the ball over 3 times after being up 3 in the last fucking min of the game!!!!!!!!!
