Oh no. Don't you try to out-pessimist me. Warriors will win. Cavs starters have played too many minutes.
I'm being serious. The first quarter cost the dubs in this one.

And seriously I think they can do it. The Cavs really should have won Game four. The series could have been over by now.

Man LeBron has been unbelievable. The pessimist/realist in me says the Warriors will cruise in game 7, but man I hope LeBron gets a ton of rest the next two days and comes out and plays the best 48 minutes of his life on Sunday.

I was watching USMNT bust Ecuador's ass out of the Copa to reach the semis. How did the unanimous mvp handle himself tonight?

Maybe not, but there was at least one other call earlier that could have easily been his 6th.

Kerr says because he's MVP and that LeBron flopped.

I dont get the flipping out about him fouling out and getting the tech/tossed. The game was already over at that point, so why does anyone even care?

Because it's jarring to see the league's first unanimous mvp throw a child fit on the wrong end of garbage time in a closeout game.

The only thing I'm rooting for is the city of cleveland. After watching that Oprah interview on Kimmel prior to game 6, where she explains that every time she approached anyone in cleveland they responded with 'we're just praying,' man, these people haven't won anything in so long...they deserve some good.

Neither one of these towns deserve a fucking thing but given the choice there are way more elitist bay area bandwagon snobs. Let the King assume his throne I say.

Maybe I'm naive but I don't think that's his fault, I think it's the Cavs fault for giving a max deal to a guy that is only there to spread the floor.

He'll be really good in Boston next year.
lebron makes everyone else better, why can't he do so with love?
Does anyone not think the Kevin Love situation is very similar to Chris Bosh in Miami. Chris Bosh got turned into a jump shooter jacking up way too many 3's. I am not a Heat fan whatsoever but I remember saying the exact same shit about him most of the time in Miami, especially his last season and play off run. Most of the time I couldn't understand what he was doing on the floor. Bosh once upon a time had a pretty nice back to the basket game and isn't that what made him the player teams want to invest big dollars in? Even if they win they should trade him and balance out the team more. They could probably get two solid pieces for him including one that does exactly what he does for them now.

Chris Bosh is a great player who probably ends up in the hall of fame if his career doesn't get cut short. Kevin Love is a chubby unathletic white guy who stat stuffed on terrible Wolves teams. It's not Lebrons fault that Love does not possess the greatness of a Chris Bosh that is necessary to be a key contributor on a championship team.

Hopefully 4/5 stops by to talk about Bosh a little. I feel gross doing it as a Bulls fan.
