When is game 1?

haha, the announcer just said it's unusual for lebron james to get called for traveling, and then the other announcer went into damage control. "you mean it's unusual for travels to get called at all in the nba."

Tracer · « **Reply #2552 on:** June 05, 2016, 06:58:26 PM »

Jeff Van Gundy is awful, never get ex coaches to broadcast games. All he does is complain... Game2 is terrible just give GS the title

SFblah · « **Reply #2553 on:** June 05, 2016, 07:13:45 PM »

I am not a Lebron fan but I really want the city of Cleveland to win something. This is not going that direction.

During the post-game, all 3 announcers look like they were going to cry. Refs can't fix the game if 3's are dropping left and right for the Dubs.

2 more!

Holy shit did they ever, it was hilarious, and during the game Jackson and Van Gundy sounded salty as fuck. Draymond had a huge game stoked to see him shine.

Love is hurt which is the death nail for Cleveland. This shows it doesn't matter what players you get, but how they play together. Golden State will sweep

That's not damage control that's dissing the league and it's true

There's some seriously confused NBA conspiracy theory on this page. So, the league wants the Cavaliers to win out over the Warriors, who are the winningest, (arguably) most entertaining and one of the most marketable teams in league history?

Not saying games are fixed but wouldn't the league benefit from a closer series/more games?

Judging by your prediction history it looks like the Cavs are gonna take it now. Or at least push it to 7.

As soon as Love got hurt I thought 'oh great here comes the "healthier team won" excuses'. If Cleveland was in the western conference they'd be a 6 seed, 5 at best.

I honestly think the playoffs and the Warriors did enough for the league where even a sweep is fine at this point. The NBA and all sports media outlets will just focus on the fact that the Warriors had the best record in the NBA and now it's warranted by a finals win.

Tracer · « **Reply #2564 on:** June 06, 2016, 12:42:05 PM »

To think they could have had this over Love $:-\$

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2565 on:** June 06, 2016, 12:58:45 PM »

I'm just thankful the talks of trading Klay to Minnesota for Love never went anywhere.

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2566 on:** June 12, 2016, 04:00:53 PM »

So the league suspended Draymond for game 5 for his scuffle with LBJ. Pretty weak, hoping if they do close it out they let draymond partake in the celebration.

Level 60 Dwarf Paladin · « **Reply #2567 on:** June 12, 2016, 04:04:02 PM »

I mean, just quit touching other dude's dicks Dray...

weedpop · « **Reply #2568 on:** June 12, 2016, 05:35:16 PM »

I wholeheartedly agree with the suspension. There's only so many times you can blatantly go for the nutshot and not get burned. He already avoided getting thrown out of Game 4 against OKC on star power alone. Letting him off again would have been embarrassing for the NBA and their "transparent officiating" program. Still love Draymond though.

rideflannel · « **Reply #2569 on:** June 12, 2016, 05:44:06 PM »

I think it's lame that the NBA reviewed this and suspended Draymond, yet, Delladova was fucking headhunting last postseason without a slap on the wrist. Oh' well, I still think that the Warriors will take it Monday.

Green didn't do anything to get tossed immediately, so let it go its the playoffs!

PAWL · « **Reply #2571 on:** June 12, 2016, 07:44:23 PM »

yeah the playoff flagrant points system is some middle school bullshit rule. Its the damn playoffs, of course people foul more/play harder.
They totally just want to give Lebron a chance to be the first team to come back from down 3-1 in the finals. Its ok though because it won't happen.

ADOLF SHITLER · « **Reply #2572 on:** June 12, 2016, 09:21:30 PM »

it's like they regretted not suspending him for the kick so much they pulled this bullshit. i still think they're gonna close it out tomorrow

foureyedjim · « **Reply #2573 on:** June 14, 2016, 12:08:24 AM »

Two possibly flagrant fouls ruled common fouls (arm to the face) tonight. Several uncalled elbows to the face on offense. Dubs played like shit and I'm not surprised they lost, but that was awful all around.

EARL***THE***PEARL · « **Reply #2574 on:** June 14, 2016, 03:53:18 PM »

Uncle Drew just could not be stopped last night some of those shots were just down right heroic hopefully this goes to 7 games and no more blowouts
