    I think if Golden State wins Game 2, they will end up getting the sweep and being the first NBA team to go undefeated in the playoffs.

    Cav's can't buy a call. Pachulia just danced all over the top of the key to free up Curry and refs just laugh. Can't beat GS and the refs too. On to game 2.

    Kevin Durant has single-handedly ruined the NBA product.

    This would've been like Lebron joining the Celtics about seven years ago because he couldn't beat them.

    Lebron looks like the only Cav player that came to play tonight. TT, Kyrie, Love and especially JR look like they don't even want to be on the court. Lou needs to bench their asses and let some other guys get a blow. Right now it's Lebron vs GSW.

    Wow, Cavs cannot buy a foul. Love got hit at least 3 times on that drive.

    KD making all the difference in this finals the second go around.. Too much fire power now..

    Could sweep +600 wouldn't surprise me.. Kyre and Lebron just can't keep pace with the Warriors offensively.. Remember the Warriors still remain undefeated in these playoffs..

    They look tired as shit but so does GS. Lue needs to use his damn bench more.

    At this point, Lue should just waive the white flag and rest the guys up for game 2.

    It remains to be seen if Durant and Curry can be consistent over a 7 game series. My money is on 1 or both of them choking before this is all said and done.

    Golden State also looks really fresh on the defensive end.

    93-72 at the end of 3. Welp, these NBA playoffs have sucked when it comes to close games. Bad for TV ratings.

    Cavs might want to think of seriously slowing the pace in this series if they want to hang. You can't outrun the Warriors.

    Everyone talks about what a great finals it was last year, but other than game 7 none of the games were close.

    Worst playoffs I've ever seen and I've seen a bunch of them. I think there was 2 close games the entire playoffs. That doesn't even seem possible. I blame the refs for a lot of it. Most of these games have been called one sided. Go look at the box scores and one team will have much more fouls called and the other more free throws. The refs basically control the flow of the game and take one team out.

    I agree. Cav's should slow down each possession and try to pound the ball inside more. But, that's not their game. They don't want to wave the white flag in game 1. Clean up the stupid shit and they can keep it close.

    Well both teams basically swept their ways to these finals.. Cavs lost once to Boston that was it..

    Yeah pretty boring playoffs for sure unless you were riding the Cavs and Warriors in just about every game ...

    It doesn't even matter. This team is loaded. In the event that Durant or Curry have a subpar game, it'll probably coincide with Draymond Green coming alive for 20+ or Klay Thompson breaking out of his slump and pouring in a 30 burger.

    How many "off" nights does Golden State's nucleus have to have for Cleveland to win four games in this series? It ain't happening.

    These refs have been absolutely pathetic. Lebron gets called for a soft bump on KD. WTF?

    I agree with this.


    The series was nearly perfectly matched last year.

    KD just tips the scales too much. In this era of basketball the Cavs are one of the best teams we've seen going against the most stacked team ever and for the foreseeable future.

    I think both teams will be losing players next year also due to contracts being up so that is a plus.

    brooks85, KD will want to repeat if they win, and is reportedly looking to take less than the max in the offseason. I'm sure Steph will get a huge contract, but somehow these dudes will want to stay together as that's the only way they've got a shot next year.

    I still think GS loses this series. 1 game hasn't changed my mind. You're never as bad as you look and you are never as good as the score. Cav's haven't gotten any breaks from the refs tonight. Not one bit.

    If the Cav's can limit KD and Curry, these games will be close. Klay is in a huge slump and Draymond not doing much as well. I think Tyronn Lue has to step up because his game plan tonight was horseshit. You have to take away something from GS and he took away nothing. KD likes to go right. Force him left. Curry likes to shoot right, force him left as well. Give Curry layups but double Durant in the paint.

    Same can be said when Shaq joined Kobe in LA.. Fun for the local fans, not so much fun for the rest of Nation and other teams competing.. Nature of the beast when stacking teams...
