I argued with Oohmpa before. I told him the team goes where Curry goes. I remember the argument very well. We played Cavs in Dec and Curry had only 15 and we lost by 1 despite KD and Klay playing well. Today again, KD is big and even Draymond outplays Curry and we still lose by 21. Because the team goes how Curry goes.

I don't have much to say yet but i just want to thank LeBron for letting the unanimous mvp's wife and the DPOY's mom of accusing the ref of being rigged in consecutive finals.

Draymond can hit someone in the head and not get called for a flagrant but Kevin Love can't touch a person's head without getting called for a flagrant. Well i wont say much

Your ref cant rig the next three games. Trust Lebron to go after Durant. I knew he would try and do something to irritate warriors. My prayers is that KD does not get injured as thats the only way CAVS can survive.

Refs scored 22 3's for the cavs and gave the GOAT a triple double.

1. Warriors shot more free throws

2. Didnt call greens flagrant on shumpert

3. zazas swipe to the groin. (BTW He lowkey tried to do to Lebron what he did to Kawhi)

4. Shadily wiped off greens first half technical to keep him in the game.

5. Called loves non flagrant a flagrant

1. More FTs at what point? After Cavs have 20FTs in the first Q alone? After Klay, Draymond and KD have 2 fouls in the first Q alone?

2. So Kyrie's back court?

3. Lebron swipes the ball out of bounds for a Cavs possession?

4. How many looseball fouls to Cavs following a missed 2 or 3 thereby giving them back the possession of the ball?

5. Shadily wipes off Greens tech? Hahaha. They did it to cover their asses for one of the worst refereeing displays you would ever see. The first tech should never have been one. The second one was even worse. LOL. Green can be a jerk but nothing in his reaction should have led to techs. Meanwhile, in game 4 Bron holds Iggy after Iggy blocks him. Then Bron slams the ball into the court but refs unlook. The only reason nobody cares about it is because we win.

6. That Love's flagrant is medicine after death to make the game appear evenly reffed. We did not need it. It should have been a common foul.

The only thing I give you guys credit for is the incredible shooting and I said it here, that regardless of coaching missteps, refball or absent Curry, Cavs shooting yesterday would have won them the game.

Now it is to hope such numinous shooting does not happen again game 5 even though I am pretty sure we react well after Ls.

KD will get his. That is not why we lost. Curry has to play well and we need to play better D. We let them have so many uncontested 3s and that is because we hoped they would miss it. It happens.

Coming out of Cleveland without an injury to any of our starters is the only success I can take. I would not overreact over a game in which one team has to shoot 24 3s with the help of the refs to win a game.

Warriors shot more Total free throws in the game. 5 more to be precise. 36-31

Besides, how many FT did curry alone score in game 2?


2. So Kyrie's back court?
Crying over a back court? Well cavs turned over the ball right after that.

3. Lebron swipes the ball out of bounds for a Cavs possession?
Happens sometimes, Doesnt change a game. Game 1 and 2 KD was carrying and scored after going out of bounds. Who cried?

TT's block in game 2 was called a goal tend. swayed momentum completely.

4. How many looseball fouls to Cavs following a missed 2 or 3 thereby giving them back the possession of the ball?
How many fouls did iguodala get away with in game 2?

They swiped it because you lot are cry babies and they wanted to make sure you had all your stars in the game. Draymond is a loose cannon, deserved to be ejected. He contests every call, good or bad.

6. That Love's flagrant is medicine after death to make the game appear evenly reffed. We did not need it. It should have been a common foul.

Good, the cavs shot like that during the season. Then non lebrons showed up and did their job today. Get ready to see more of the same in oakland.

LOL. Did you start watching basketball yesterday? You jump out to a 16pt lead following 2 fouls each to the Warriors strongest defensive options and you are showing me a post game FT disparity to argue about fair refereeing.

Besides, how many FT did curry alone score in game 2?

15 all in the first half because they kept fouling him and hoping refs would not call it. If you were on this thread you'd have seen some of us expressing our surprise that he was getting calls. Meanwhile, Javale blocks Love on his dunk and refs give Love 2 FTs for his effort. Miss me with the BS.

Crying over a back court? Well cavs turned over the ball right after that.

If only they could miss all the FTs they got from the phantom loose ball fouls. If only.

TTs block swayed momentum completely but Lebron's out of bounds miscall did not? Are you related to Kelly-Anne Conway?

How many fouls did iguodala get away with in game 2?

Same number that Love, Korver, JR and Shumpert got away with in game 3.

They swiped it because you lot are cry babies and they wanted to make sure you had all your stars in the game. Draymond is a loose cannon, deserved to be ejected. He contests every call, good or bad.

They swiped it because the ojoro was too glaring.

Speaking about cry babies at least we would not hear "he does not have help" "there is no parity in the NBA" when you lose game 5. Your players are only good enough for LeBroom when you don't lose.

SMH! Nope! Poor officiating!

Yea. Such that each time GSW went on a run and Cavs missed a shot, refs gave us a loose ball foul and returned possession to y'all even when replays will show both players contested for the ball equally.

Good, the cavs shot like that during the season. Then non lebrons showed up and did their job today. Get ready to see more of the same in oakland.

LOL. You are obviously new here. Cavs won 109-108 in Ohio in Dec and they threw a party here. Lost by 35pts in January and began to say "He plays too many mins" "We need another playmaker". I can't wait for what you would say when JR and Korver miss shots again in Oakland. They would become scrubs.

Were any of those fouls conjured up? Were any of those calls wrong? Did they not make contact? Even KD and Curry agreed the cavs aggressiveness won them those fouls, stop whining!

Exactly, if you're fouled you get the call. Were the warriors not fouling the cavs? In the words of the GOAT "Stop talking crazy".


If only they could miss all the FTs they got from the phantom loose ball fouls. If only.

Wait till we get paul george next yeat, we'll show you what the GOAT can do with help. You and your plastic as team full of b-tches. Deron once touted to be better than cp3 has been playing like a joke.

Thank you Mr point out the obvious, if they miss then they ARE scrubs. Showing up in one game isnt enough, you must show up every game.

More like the "normal choke" if it goes beyond the 13th. Like someone said up there, officiating was very very poor, i hope the NBA suspends the officials from that game. That being said, KD, Klay and to some extent Green were the only Warriors that showed up last night.

Not sweeping the Cavs especially in a close out game at the Q was inexcusable. I have always maintained Kerr is too rigid with how he manages Curry and roster. Curry was bullied off the screen, and just like last year he did not make any adjustment to accommodate Curry.

Ever wondered why Klay thrives whenever teams try to be rough and tough on the Warriors? because he takes it to them, he does not give in, you foul him without a call, he goes back to you with a dagger 3 or blood sucking defense. Curry on the other hand is a different player who sometimes needs the help of his coach and team mates to draw plays.

He has to force the issue with the aggressiveness of the Cavs.
