Steph in the avy

Warriors blew a 3-1 lead.

Is that how it works?

 

[art vandelay]

I was a low key Bradley fan, but he showed the most heart consistently

 

[Mr.Guy]

they havent gotten anything from their bench the whole series

Kyle Korver , Frye, and D will have played well.

 

[Proposition Joe]

Never has. Cant develop that either

Explain how a player displays killer instinct. I want to know what Bron did to us in game seven is called.

 

[Lovetohate3000]

Lebby was 0-3 in the 4th

Must have owed money to the same people as Harden

This loss isn't on LeBron. You guys need to give way more credit to the Boston defense in the second half. They played them VERY well out there. Aside from that Love corner 3 around 2 mins left in the game, the Celtics made all the right switches, helped and rotations at the end.

Is it really a hot take to say this doesn't/can't happen with IT on the floor?

Whiplash was talking all that good **** too about the Dubs defense compared to the Cavs. ***** really is a jinx. No wonder Lakers gonna suck for the next decade

That talk should've been deaded after Game 6 in Boston tbh.

No excuse for his effort tonight though.

 

[Bert.]

Hope Khloe will be at the next game

Absolutely not. In defense, you are only as strong as your weakest link.

The Celtics brought the right help, pressure and made ALL the right rotations when they needed to. Outside of that open corner Love 3 (which he missed), the Celtics took away the the open 3 for most of the 4th.

With IT on the floor (the worst starting defensive players in the reg season), the Celtics obviously looked better out there.

 

[Mr.Guy]

Tristan gotta be a dummy for falling for the Kardashian trap.

 

[NickFolarin]

Hope Khloe will be at the 4 games 

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Uh nah.


Good defense in one thing but Lebron wasn't even looking to score in the 4th.

It's stuff like this thats so disrespecting to another teams effort. LeBron was played well against tonight. Simple as that. Kevin Love had almost 30 tonight. He didn't get a chance to drive inside and the Celtics played great team defense against him.

I don't care if it's Bad Boy Pistons you can't just pass the ball around and stand in the corner. Yes, Boston played good defense for the team they have but Lebron still was not looking to score.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Is Lebron a front runner because he was dancing in warmups and then he was trash?

 

[noblekane]

Kyle Korver , Frye, and D will have played well.

korver is shooting 4 of 16 for the series

williams 2 for 11

channing frye didnt even play tonight

you were saying?

 

[monstar]

He really showed it in the first two games

Guys not showing up to compete can't be all put on the coach.

Aside from the jazz they were the only team left winning games without a certified superstar.

Shootout to buddy who bet 100 on Boston to win tonigt

They've been underwhelming this conference Finals, but I think he meant the whole post-season.

 

[monstar]

This loss is good for the cavs the series is still there's but I just hope no more injuries happen thats the one negative about this extra time
