Very, very sad to see Irving walk off. Great freaking player. Tons of heart. GS is going to crush them if Irving is done for the series.
Same for me. I would have liked a competitive series, and it won't be without Kyrie. I think it could very well be a sweep or over in 5 at most. Cavs can't live off Lebron having to score half their points every game. GS has way too many weapons. And this was the best chance the Cavs had to steal a game.
Yep. We all know that if Kobe took 40 shots in a Finals game and lost, that selfish ballhog needs to get his teammates involved. And I have zero problem whatsoever with him shooting that much.
CLE got dominated in the OT. Too bad for Kyrie, but regardless... I think GSW got this. Bron can't have a monster game every time. And the Warriors' guards will play better sooner or later. At the end of the day, they are simply deeper.
Yea, even if LeBron has a monster game every time, it's still going to be hard for the Cavs to win if they don't have Kyrie.
In a way I kind of appreciate Lebron taking 38 shots. Back in the Heat days he always seemed way too concerned about his fg percentage to go all out. Still sucks for him to not be able to score in OT (not counting that last shot).
To me Cleveland almost had to win this. They should've capitalized on GS's nerves and poor start but they didn't. They killed them on the boards, LeBron had 40, and they still lost. Not good. Without Irving, this will be over shortly.
