    Jordan has never taken a bad team to the Finals though.
    I agree. In reality, lebron's only done it once.

    GS played the entire game like they knew they were going to win. Absolutely no will or drive. They expected to make every 3 pointer and played zero defense. Really a pathetic game from the ex champs.

    Congrats Cleveland. And lebron is in the same ball park with jordan. He's not Michael yet, but he's definitely in the same conversation.

    Well said.

    This series is like nothing I've ever seen.

    Blowout after blowout then a close 7th game?

    I doubted the Cavs, straight up DOUBTED them. It did look like the refs changed up in game 5. Lebron got NO foul calls. Neither did GS but that was definitely a series changer.

    Thoughts?

    Ok what the hell happened I just woke up. I fell asleep a few minutes into the second half. I'm not feeling well.

    Happy for Cleveland. Except for that guy that wrote "The Whore of Akron". He could suck a dick. But happy for the rest of them.

    Great, great series by Kyrie by the way.

    I don't think the refs changed the series. I think when lebron decided to take over, GS simply didn't have an answer. As for GS, you live by the 3, you die by the 3. They beat teams for 2 years by shooting so many more shots than everyone. Cleveland figured out a way to not only slow them down, but make them miss. Something nobody has been able to do until the last 3 games.

    Good job by Kevin Love too. Did a lot of little things that made a difference even if he wasn't that great overall. Happy for Richard Jefferson as well.

    Imagine how last years Finals would've ended if Irving and Love hadn't gotten injured. Well mostly Irving

    Did you watch the same series I did?

    Check the FT stats. The game was completely different when the refs started calling fouls. Steph Curry fouled out... He FOULED OUT?!?

    I will agree that GS forgot how to hit a 3 and I will also agree that Lebron started to take over but I can't get past the fact that Lebron drove the lane and didn't get any calls for 4 games...

    Great series though. Amazing.

    Yes, I know what you're saying. But it's not that uncommon for refs to change their style midway through a series.
