Haha, Oakland's own MC Hammer everybody!

Why am I rooting for the Cavs?

Curry's shot is insane.

BRIGGS @ 6/14/2015 10:51 PM
Phil better rethink his thoughts on the 3

Curry hitting impossible shots tonight..Can't do much about that..

Getting points from Barbosa a/Klay struggling was huge

Blatt made a few mistakes tonight ..Moz need floor time..Della should not be the orchestrator at the top of the key..He needs to be a catch and shoot guy..JR was on the bench too long..came back in the game at 6:47 in the 4th..

Their bench has been huge..Iggy another great night who has been on the bench all year..

Agree there were things he should be done differently but at the end of the day it's hard to guard golden state

very true. At the least Moz should play when Lee is in. It's tough playing Moz and Thompson because it means he's matched up with Iggy.

And you won't find many shooters with his stroke AND his balls to take some of those shots.

Delly should play D and wait for the 3, but nobody else on that team seems to have the desire to handle the ball when James is not doing it.

They have a pretty fearless team, for the most part...Barbosa thinks he's still playing for MDA.

Cleveland needs a PG who can get in the lane..They have to take the ball out of Bron's hands next year..Its too taxing on him even when Kyre is there..Lin might be able to help them but he wants to get paid..

Well they haven't been doing it all year..Shump could bring up the ball..

Crazy as it sounds but Iggy might be MVP..

Not crazy at all. He is a candidate if GSW win this one. He guarded Lebron the best, made a plenty of clutch shots, and has been a terrific role player for everyone in this series.

TPercy @ 6/14/2015 11:58 PM
I see so much of Shump in Winslow. I just hope Winslow sets himself apart from Shump by being able to finish at an NBA level.

Lebron should be the finals MVP even if GS wins IMO. No one on GS is as valuable to their team as he is to Cleveland.

Maybe but the case for Iggy is that without him Lebron would actually be an efficient player making Lebron unstoppable. GS would've probably been swept

"Curry hitting impossible shots tonight..."

Curry season
2pt-48.7%
3pt-44.5%
FT-91%

Curry in game 5
2pt-56%
3pt-53%
FT-100%

Yes, a little better, maybe a 10% difference from the regular season. Impossible but not unexpected shots.

I <3 Curry . . . and he's been very good throughout the post-season (even against Cleveland) but based on 5 games, I'd vote for Lebron for MVP. Yes, Lebron gets/takes more shots because of Cleveland's injuries, somewhat padding his stats, but overall the degree of difficulty (the number of impossible plays) for Lebron (GS _is_ playing solid defense) is higher.

That's possible but I doubt anyone would be efficient taking 40 shots a game this deep in the playoffs with only 2 min rest a game. The MVP once before went to a player from the losing team.
