    my dad told me earlier today that the way the warriors have been officiated in the past two series reminds him of the old days in the nba (we're talking pre-80s), wherein there was apparently a prevalent fan concern that buying tickets to a regular season game was basically stupid, as you're not watching the same sport. i get it. i mean, if teams could play gs like this for 82 games, they'd finish 5th in the conference, not as the single greatest regular season team ever. choose the way in which you want to officiate the game and stick to it. they're going to give a series to the cavs because they decided the game is different in june than it is in february, and that's some serious bs. not quite dal/mia 2006 bs, but close enough to make it hard to wash off the stench.

    I don't know I think it's pretty close to that. What was the discussion heading into this series? LeBron and Steph couldn't hang in the 80s right? Well the NBA is kind of answering that question here except the Warriors aren't hitting back enough.

    Actually this kind of reminds me of 08 when we lost to the hated ones. They pulled every dirty trick they could on the floor in order to get us off our game. Instead of tricks, the Cavs are just resorting to literal violence, but the effect is the same. I mean just look at Iguodala. He's literally been beaten up to the point where his back is injured. Ridiculous. I've seen LeBron and the Cavs throwing forearms so often in this series it brings flashbacks of Bynum knocking Barea out of the air except this time it happens EVERY play. The Warriors have been begging for whistles on those to no avail. If I were a Golden State fan with time/ @CaCHooKa Man type editing skills I'd cobble together a Youtube video of the molestation they've faced in this series with no call.

    Of course they're not even letting the warriors play the same game.

    The blatant grabbing and holding and charging, instead called blocking fouls that James has been allowed to get away with on Curry alone has me enraged and depressed at the same time. WTF NBA FO????????? So f********** obvious the agenda in games 5 and 6, starting with the Green suspension. Totally has the appearance of being rigged to at least get it to game 7 if not outright help Cleveland to a championship. Easy to see why Ayesha is going out of her mind sitting close and seeing it in person right in front of her. F*** Y** Silver.

    All Warriors have to do is ruin the Cavs parade. It's not like they haven't beaten them before. They torched them during the regular season, but of course that doesn't matter considering they both are entirely different teams at this point. But, it's not like they don't know what to do. I think it's their first time facing adversity not in a game but regarding the media. They need to take the pressure off of themselves. Last game they didn't play like a relaxed team but more afraid and timid. Just relax and play their game. LeBron is bigger than Draymond but he's played him well before. They need to focus on keeping the role player cold and non-factors and they put themselves in a good position to win.
