    Lebron.  No question.

    Warriors have a dilemma because Green is the only person that can possibly cover Lebron.  And he'll get himself in foul trouble doing it.  But using Green creates some mismatches in the front court.

    Did they find the moron(s) who vandalized Lebron's house?
    Yeah ain't that some shit?  I was going to start a racism thread on AMT.

    His response to it was nothing more than eloquent and I learned more about the Mississippi Burning years and about a young Emmet Till.

    moron is way too tame of a word for the person or persons who did that.

    I've seen a couple clips of his statement but just searched and found a full transcript online.  I completely agree.  Mentioning the case of Emmett Till was a great talking point.  If anything, this small person who had the gall to vandalize his home did nothing more than give Lebron a platform to show the world that racism is alive and well.  Just as Till's mother exposed the cruelty of racism by asking for a public service with an open casket for her 14-year old son.  I'm sure the narrow-minded idiot(s) thought they were getting one over on Lebron, but instead just gave an even bigger voice to one of the most popular athletes in the world.

    Can't miss? They shot way below what they usually do and they missed 8 point blank layups. I know this thread has turned into a Warriors haters gathering but try to be objective. I told you two months ago the new Cavs bench couldn't run with the Warriors and tonight was just the beginning. It's only one game but LeBron will have to play at a level never seen by anyone ever for this to be a competitive series. If Klay finds his shot even a little this series will be over quickly. Oh but wait, the Warriors can't play defense, can't defend the rim, can't score in the paint and have no depth. All the unfounded talking points of Warriors haters. The Cavs are champs and will play their guts out but in the end the might just be outgunned. Relying on Kevin Love to score a consistent 17-20 against this Warriors defense is probably not going to happen. He did a hell of a job on the boards but the Cavs need at least one more scorer to have a real shot,

    Did you watch the third and fourth quarter when they kept draining 3's and Lebron kept missing layups?  That's what I saw.

    I also saw a Cavs team NOT playing Cavs basketball.  They changed up their game plan.

    GS D'd up big time too.

    This was one of those games that everything seemed to go GS' way.

    4 TO to 20?!?

    56 pts in the paint to 30...

    The 2nd attempt points by GS was amazing too.

    Cavs have a lot of adjusting to do.  Typical for their style in the finals.  I just hope it's not too late when they figure it
