    I wonder what the Bulls championship teams would have looked like had Patrick Ewing joined them.

    They win the title in 1994. Possibly 1995.

    The lies from them claiming they rooted for KD until he joined the Warriors. Nah, they liked him as long as they didn't view him as threat to LeBRon cake walking to the finals. Last time I checked they basked in glory when LeBron joined two All-Stars and a HOF'mer in Ray Allen, when they beat KD & OKC in the finals.

    They thought KD was suppose to scale himself back so LeBron can win. That's not very goat like qualifications.

    I like watching both guys.

    I’m not counting on it, but I really hope this is a sweep. That would be 2 Finals sweeps for LeBron to Kobe’s 0.

    I don't know if GS is focused enough for the sweep. I'm interested in seeing if LLLLL(L)ebron is checked out yet.

    That dagger from KD... wow

    Also can this be a sweep so we can start the free agency rumor mill? Thanks GSW.

    THAT was the Durant 2017 Finals version and not the one that bumbled around at times in the Houston series...

    Smith's bungle in Game 1 looms large and has sucked the life out the Cavs team.

    Once again Durant proves he's the best player in the world when it matters most.

    Chalk up another L for LLLLLLebron.

    Only when he plays on the team that's the best. Tell what you said to OKC fans :D

    Everyone knows deep down that Lebron is the best player in the world by a significant margin, but seeing people say Donovan Mitchell >>>Lebron is great theater.

    The Warriors visited a local middle school in Cleveland to celebrate with the kids. #NBACares

    Wow, phenomenal game by KD. This is the version I've been waiting to see again who seemingly disappeared for most of the Rockets series as gcclaker said. Boy this has got to hurt for Cleveland. At home, great first half and Klay and Steph both have clunker games simultaneously which doesn't happen very often. This was a golden opportunity to get back into the series. But they just couldn't pull it. Unfortunately these Cavs are simply nowhere near a championship quality team. They are actually quite bad. Huge props to Lebron for getting these guys to the Finals with only one round of home court advantage. But they were number 4 in the Leastern Conference with good reason. Maybe for pride they win game 4 at home, but it's looking like gentleman's sweep at best.

    I do think Lebron is out of there this summer. There's nothing left for him in Cleveland. He made good on his promise to bring a ring home. He's gotten them to the Finals four years straight. But without Kyrie alongside him this team is just too thin, talent-wise, and they have no prospects to truly reload.

    It's going to be fun to see what happens next.

    I guess that "kid" was more important than Bron was willing to treat him.
