Why can't I quote anyone? Freaking website.

Depends on whether or not Iguodala is out there like -

If Iggy is cooked, that really is a wildcard I didn't mention. Even worn Lebron might be able to take over against anyone else. But I think he'll be back fine for Game 7.

Cavs would get sweeped they said
Cavs would lose in 5 they said
Cavs would lose in 6 they said

I predicted Warriors in 7 before the series started.

I predicted Cavs would win Game 5 once it was revealed that Green was suspended.

And I predicted Warriors in 7 again after Game 5.

It HAS been hitting him for two years.

Lebron missing 20 games the last two years when he hadn't missed more than 7 games in a season his entire career.

Lebron's defensive effort falling off the last two years, to the point where he wasn't named to any of the All-Defensive teams for the first time since 2008.

Lebron's jump shot completely falling off in the playoffs last year, then being gone all season this year, because he just didn't have the lift on it anymore.

Lebron scoring fewer ppg the last two years than at any point since his rookie season, and at a lower FG% than since his 1st year in Miami.

Lebron having tired-looking games in what appear to be must-win situations (Game 4 against GS last year, Game 4 against GS this year).


Yes, Lebron is still the best player in the game, and he can put up ridiculous games over and over. But his defense and his shooting and his willingness to defer have shown that he's been tired the last two years. This isn't something that "suddenly hit him", it's why he shot 30% from three in the playoffs last year and 31% in the regular season this year. Why he's had to give away more of the scoring load and half-ass it on defense so often.


He still is capable of games like 5 and 6. But it's too much to expect him to do it a third time in a row at this point. He might still put up something like 30-10-10....but I bet they'll need something more like 45-15-5, and at high efficiency, for Cleveland to actually win.

Alright Im disregarding most of this cause its based on regular season which is bad/isnt based on current affairs. Pretty much your entire problem is compounded in that last paragraph....and the things you listed, shooting, defense, have those things not been fixed from the past 2 games? And how were those things remedied? By him making a concerted effort to fix them. He got put on Draymond and made an effort to shut him down which he did. He made an effort to get his jumper going when its needed, and it did. Without Golden State able to double team him (which they cant do with other Cavs balling) and without the rim protection (which is impossible with Bogut out and Green having to play even more minutes at Center), he can easily produce more without having more strain on himself.


Game 4 this year wasn't him being tired, it was him being completely mentally out of the game. He just refused to do what he needed to in able to win this game. Same thing that he did at times in 2011. He didnt look tired, he just didnt take jumpers, he barely got to the rim, he played facilitating mode way too long. Thats problems he had mentally several times since the beginning of his career.

GS opens as 5 point favorites, biggest opening spread of the finals

Not true at all. Warriors were bigger favorites in Games 1 and 2. The spread itself is irrelevant in series like these because the prices are relatively static throughout. Golden State was going to be favored by 5-6.5 points no matter what for every home game.
