    My interest in The Finals is nil at best... There's always NBA-TV for replays. I agree that the days in between is too much. Not good for the players too since the down time will affect their momentum especially for the team with the series edge.

    Terrible schedule. I don't understand all the days off nor did I like the week off between the Conference finals and finals.

    Because Lebron complained about rest that one time. I think. Probably.

    Relax. if it goes 7 games you can enjoy the game with your Thanksgiving dinner. Win win.

    Seriously, this is ridiculous. 7 games in 18 days. No way it should go more than 13. Day off in between each game. More than enough.

    It's all about money and best days for the media in prime time. If they were going to pony up the big bucks, they were going to get as many Prime broadcast days as possible. Creating as many Friday-Sunday slots as possible is my guess.

    Foster and brothers, two of the worst refs so expected some stupid calls.

    Also Kerr is back.

    Kerr is back, so I expect a Cavs win. One thing I believe in working with the Cavs years ago is that Mike Brown had an advantage about how to coach against LeBron defensively, being that he coached him. But that's pretty much it.

    I don't care who wins. I just want to see a competitive game.

    I told you guys the Cavs might get swept. I truly believe they're not close to the Warriors when the Warriors are healthy. Nothing is like these Warriors when they're healthy.

    This is the Lakers/C Bags from the 80s except the C Bags are worse now.

    Curry is flustered by the Cavs physicality again. Don't like him throwing dangerous fancy passes. He did it in game 1 too.

    That's why I can never consider Stephen Curry great because he's a turnover machine.

    Wow that pass from Bron to Irving fast break at the 1st half buzzer was sweet.

    I respect this version of James...taking the rock full throttle and running it down the opponents' throat. Love is too talented of a player to be shooting treys most of the time.
