    They cant stop the Warriors though. Their defense just isnt good enough.

    To beat them you need guys that can both shoot and defend. The cavs do not have this.

    I just dont see how their defense can hold up to win a series against gsw without homecourt

    Remind me, was the Draymond self inflicted DDT vs Adams only ruled a common foul?

    I hear you but at the end of the day a lot of folks thought the dubs would runway with this series against Okc and it took everything and then some.

    Been saying the entire series there's an inverse correlation between the magnitude of the situation and their ability to play composed basketball and ultimately make shots.

    Can't say Russ don't want it. But that's not enough.

    The reason why the thunder pushed them was really due to gsw not taking and making 3's through 4 games and also turning the ball over.

    Basicslly it was more gsw than okc.

    In hindsight, that's what it was man.

    Crazy.  I'm looking at the play now and wondering how that wasn't a flagrant 2.

    A copout double foul. Draymond knew what he was doing, then looked like a total doofus laying on the ground like a ***** cause his plan didn't work

    People become prisoners of the moment too often.  The blueprint to beat them was showcased in the 3 wins (2 of them were blow outs) by OKC this series, and the Cavs have the necessary roster to do it.  I honestly don't think they'll pull it off but i wouldn't be surprised if they do.
