    My brother who I had to hear bash the Lakers and Kobe since I was young called me talking about "When did everyone started hating LeBron? What did he do"? I told him did he not remember what he and the rest of America put me and other Lakers fans through? Lol.

    The Cavs have no cohesiveness to the point other players help one another glo, if you will. LeBron garnering 13 assists doesn't mean jack, if nobody else is glowing. Unlike Curry's 13 assists came off getting the ball to players/teammates while they're running and making plays too. It's basically run it through LeBron and wait for him to pass it or score. On the Warriors they actually make one another better. No two players only touch the ball. Everybody is passing, making plays for one another, etc. That's how you make teammates better. I never saw that with LeBron. His assists just made for a pretty stat line.

    probably trying to get suspended to avoid the sweep?

    i did think his movements after the strip warranted some attention. he also sort of grab/slapped iguodala in a manner that might have drawn a T from a non-flagship.

    My whole family is filled with MJ and Lebron lovers so I sympathize.

    Kyrie was just incredible last night. I have to agree with you, the degree of difficulty on some of those drives is just off the charts. I can't believe he can make those. Jaw dropping.

    Irving has the knack for getting the shot off when covered...as Thompson is no slouch. He doesn't jump out of the gym or possess any other overwhelming athleticism but he has the touch on his shots. Irving's shot making defies logic.

    He'll be back in the Finals next year because the East is trash, unfortunately.

    It sometimes makes you wonder. Would Lebron have been better off not trading Wiggins for Love?

    I saw Stephen Curry's stats and he's almost averaging a triple double and 30 points a game. If he has a great performance today in game 3, does he get finals MVP? I think it may go to KD because of his clutch plays and defense on LeBron.

    Zaza doesn't even know how to foul. Lebron gets an and1 opportunity.
