Series now very interesting as both coaches are now putting in noticeable work.

Kerr made adjustments to his lineup in game 4 by giving more minutes to Livingston, Lee, and Iguodala, and now Barbosa in game 5.

Blatt going small ball to match the Warriors and game 5 has been pretty close so far despite the Cavs lapses on defense.

Cavs handed the halftime lead to the Warriors, starting with that eight second violation. Definitely a fun, crazy first half so far.

Also, Delly quite blatantly got away with a kicked ball there. Mark Jackson could barely contain his excitement as momentum swung towards the Cavaliers.

Lol bullshit call but delly got what he deserved when his face got smashed into the court on that play

Yeah, Mark Jackson seems more enthusiastic when talking about the Cavs but drab with the Warriors, the hurt lingers.


Props to that black dude with the violin as the halftime entertainment, amazing.

How about Metallica with that amazing national anthem. Much better than the overly stylized vocals by Usher.

Good ball movement in this 3rd quarter. I'm enjoying the grind by both teams in this pivotal game 5.

The way this one has gone so far, a six point lead/deficit doesn't mean a whole lot. Seems we're primed for a really good fourth quarter.

Damn, what a throw down by Barnes.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Maybe the dunk of the postseason right there. Tie game, though.

Lebron doing his best splash brothers impersonation only to have them return the favor.

Loving this back and fourth game, living up to my expectations of a game 5.

The shootout begins.

If the Warriors win the championship, Iguodala is my clear finals MVP. Sorry Lebron.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

The Warriors have a 10 point lead. I guess this is a wrap.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Still a lot of time left. A couple of big shots by Smith or LeBron, and it'll be a tight game again within a couple of plays.

This game would be over by now, if Iggy was knocking down his free throws. 2/11...yikes.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Mon Jun 15, 2015 12:43 pm

Hack-an-Iggy making this a loooong game.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Mon Jun 15, 2015 12:45 pm

Yeah, I've learned my lesson to call games before the buzzer, some crazy comebacks have happened.

The Warriors as a whole left a lot of points at the line. Gotta feel for Lebron though, the guy is doing every thing he possibly can and even Thompson is doing his part but the other three players on the court are basically just there.

Dagger right there by Curry. Warriors win this one.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Mon Jun 15, 2015 12:53 pm

Curry hit that one from across the bay. Wow.

A monster game from LeBron, but a huge performance by Curry too. 3-2...of course, LeBron has led a team to a championship from that deficit, in Games 6 and 7.

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Mon Jun 15, 2015 12:57 pm

That was a team though, this time he's got an offensive rebounder and dead bodies.

No Ray Allen this time though.

LBJ's no Kobe. Not even close.

What a stellar performance by MVP Curry. With Bogut out of the line up completely for David Lee, Curry's having it ez pz. I wonder why Delly couldn't shut him down, huh. (Y)

Re: 2015 NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavs

Mon Jun 15, 2015 1:06 pm

Steve Kerry. :lol:

The Cavs seemed to run out of gas and ideas toward the end. Maybe going small the whole game cost them.

Well, when they tried to get Mozgov back in the game he was Mozgov'd by Barnes. But you had to give it to Blatt for having the balls to sit a guy who was a beast last game and make this a game until Curry and the Warriors took over.
