They threw the game starting from the first quarter. They wanna win and celebrate at home -- not in Cleveland. GSW was careful to stay behind all game. Tried to make it look natural, but I was not fooled.
THE REFS MADE SURE THEY RUINED THAT

Yeah and they dominated the warriors. Up the entire game and were up double digits nearly the whole game. Lets not act like they played that well and barely won

Cavs have to do that for 3 more games, HIGHLY unlikely they shoot that well the rest of the series. If Kyrie or Love is cold in Game 5, it's night night.

To help whom? I'm seeing a lot of post talking about the refs favored the Cavs, yet I saw Green continue to play after picking up a second technical. I saw a flagrant foul called when KD's head was grazed on the follow through after the ball had been deflected. It was bad calls made for both teams.
that last tech on dray was bs anyway

What they have to do is play their best basketball.

First two games that Cavs were pretty much beating themselves. Turnovers, lack of effort, bonehead ass plays, defensive lapses and mistakes they normally wouldn't make.

Cavs playing their best have a shot against anyone.

Durant is due a bad a game too.

although the cavs played lights out it still felt like gs could come back. props to kyrie, bron, jr, love for hitting their shots though. that one shot by jr from the logo was bananas. some of the shyt kyrie was doing was just sorcery.

after kd's 3-1 collapse against gs last year he has something to prove imo. and i'm sure gs 3-1 loss last year is also also lurking in the back of their mind. if gs play scared or don't turn up the intensity this could turn into a series. cavs seem to have found the formula over the past two games even though they lost game 3. just want to see good games from here out without the officiating fukkery.

Dubs still shot over 50% from the field... refs made sure to kill any run GS was starting

Are any Cavs fans disappointed that Lebron James seems...reluctant to take Durant off the dribble in 1-on-1 situations?

It sure seems to me that when facing Durant, Lebron has trended toward 2 options:

1. Two dribbles, bulldoze through Durant (and the help) and attempt a close shot
2. Play a more...facilitating role...where he's either the pick for Kyrie...or passes to the corner for a Love/JR three pointer?

I mean there's nothing necessarily wrong with either one...particularly if the plays are fruitful.
But sometimes...SOMETIMES...I just wanted to see Lebron crossover/take Durant off the dribble...just once. I dunno man.
I'll concede that's just a personal thing I want...and if Lebron putting on a different hat leads smart, successful basketball then that's great for the team.

But it's like...well...when Iverson pulled up against Jordan...you knew how you wanted that situation to go down.
That's all I'm saying.

Refs did the same thing last year; started calling the game entirely different than they've been calling it all season. Finals get more physical but you can't allow all that grabbing, tackling, blatant traveling:hhh: to keep a team in it. It's just bad basketball.

The defense was just poor yesterday, Kerr of course was on his D+ coaching game, and the Cavs shot out of their mind. You shoot 60 percent from 3 making over 20 of them, you shouldn't beat any team

That first quarter with the 20 FTs and 20 point head start allowing Cavs to get in offensive rthyme while calling everything on the warriors.. #1 defensive team in the league

Game was over the first quarter and it wasn't because of the Cavs "great play" them nikkas can't throw 137 pts in a bucket..
