Shumpert has been a silent assassin against Cleveland this series. He's terrible.

Wind resistance with the hair.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Warriors defense has been spectacular this series but they are playing at another level tonight.  Its why they aren't getting run out of the arena tonight.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I think JR Smith celebrated an evening too early.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

I'm just not confident at all that Cleveland can survive if they don't have 3-4 possessions in a row where they score. And I can't see them getting many if those tonight.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Cleveland looks like a team that's about to get eliminated.

It's way way way early to tell anything.

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

Cavs early plan is to tempt Iguodala to beat them from the perimeter. Thus far, he's been up to the task.

 

[shawnrbu]

Festus!

 

[johnmd20]

Cleveland is a mess. This is ugly.

 

[shawnrbu]

This series is nearly a carbon copy of the Memphis series.  HRB nailed it.

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

Worst quarter is the series for Cleveland, it won't continue.
I don't thick Dubs run away, as much as I'd be good with that.

 

[mt8thsw9th]

 
It's way way way early to tell anything.

This game was over last week.

That would have been a total dagger if Curry drained that at the buzzer...

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Dwayne Wade wishes he hadn't leaned in the first time.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Touch and flop.

 

[johnmd20]

Everytime Cleveland nails a big three, GS answers. It's unbelievable.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Brazilian Blur.

 

[Al Zarilla]

If Klay was on his shooting this would be over too.

 

[Fishy1]

Blatt is really a "fellas" guy.

 

[shawnrbu]

How do you miss that call?

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

Festus has been a difference maker

 

[Al Zarilla]

Cleveland fail Montage. Never gets old, I guess.

 

[luckiestman]

That is not a flagrant, c'mon

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

The Cavs have perfected the forearm shiver

 

[Al Zarilla]

That is not a flagrant, c'mon

No blood or bones sticking out no flagrant, huh?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

That is not a flagrant, c'mon

Agreed

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

right call. No flagrant.

 

[johnmd20]

Curry got wrecked there.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Curry got wrecked there.

Yup.

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

Mozgov has been a force in D...but has he lost control of the ball everything he has gotten it underneath?

 

[rembrat]

James needs to like take the next 20 shots. Take over the game stop passing to your center.

 

[luckiestman]

The movie is called southpaw the last image is of a straight right hand. Hollywood needs to up their game

 

[johnmd20]

15 turnovers in 19 minutes. Wow.

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

15 FTs to 2

 

[johnmd20]

15 FTs to 2

 
Golden State isn't going to the hole, they are nailing jumpers.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

that was closer to a flagrant than the one they reviewed.  Though neither was

 

[johnmd20]

FLOP CITY.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

That should have been a T on Iggy for flopping.

Officials doing their typical crappy job

 

[The Social Chair]

Green wins the Kevin Garnett fake tough guy award

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Refs calling a tight game.  This bodes well for those of you hoping for a game seven.

 

[luckiestman]

All of a sudden GS is an Italian soccer team

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
Golden State isn't going to the hole, they are nailing jumpers.

O fuck off, Bron lowers his shoulder like an offensive tackle, no call, then he gets hacked ,whistle. Refs are color blind.

You obviously haven't been watching this series. Lebron is not getting that many calls. 

 

[Al Zarilla]

 
You obviously haven't been watching this series. Lebron is not getting that many calls. 

But he commits tens of fouls that are never called, like lowering his shoulder whenever he goes in. 

 

[54thMA]

Cleveland fail Montage. Never gets old, I guess.

 
They left out the Sipe interception in the end zone vs the Raiders in the 1980 playoffs and the 1999 meltdown in the Divisional series vs the Red Sox, but yeah, it never does get old...............
 

 

[luckiestman]

I like that curry has been shaving point these past few games

 

[johnmd20]

People saying this on a Red Sox board makes me nuts. Do you forget that fast?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Kerr is gonna be careful with Iggys minutes with the 3 fouls. Lebron has to do work while he's on the bench.

 

[eddiew112]

Warriors completely fell apart offensively after Thompson got his 3rd foul

 

[NortheasternPJ]

What a pathetic half for Cleveland.

And yet they're down by 2. 

 

[Tangled Up In Red]

Fairly entertaining half. GSW let them back in.
Second half will be legs/fouls vs home court/whistles.
