Not mine, but:

"The Cavaliers are now 0-5 in NBA Finals games coached by Mike Brown."

Unfortunately the Cavs aren't going to be able to flip the switch on defense. They'll have to do a much better job of rebounding to have any chance

I doubt they can top 59 rebounds.

They were +16 in turnovers. That did them in. Lebron had 8 turnovers and GSW had 4!

Not even MJ in his prime would beat this years Warriors team. He's never had to face a team like this in the NBA finals. The fact is if Cleveland loses, opposing fans will to jump to say that Lebron sucks and can't carry his team to a Championship.

How old are you? Did you actually see MJ play? He played some great teams. He just had the ability to drop 50 and win the game by himself unlike LeBron. He would will them to victory.

He tends to do things like this in pressure situations.

Yea. .500 in Finals on the way to another loss. A bunch of Finals appearances due to making sure he stays on a team that no one in the weak azz East has a chance to beat. Then he plays a real team in Finals and gets waxed more often than not. He is soft. A great player but no heart.

We're watching Wilt join West and Whatsiz name, and you wanna critisize lbj for it? This Warrior **** is absolute horse****. The NBA told LA to **** off when they tried to add CP to the roster. 'to protect the hornets' Wtgdf did OKC get from this?

I'm not a James fan, but to act like this finals is in any way in reach for him is hrose****.

Durant couldn't win a Ring with Westbrook and Harden (before he went to Houston) at Oklahoma City so he joined an already stacked team in Golden St... Name one team in the NBA that would beat 4 All Stars at a regular basis during the regular season??? There's a reason why they had the best record in the NBA.

If you want to talk about being soft then Durant fits that mold perfectly. He can't carry a team by himself either so that's why he joined Curry, Green, and Thompson to win a ring. The funny thing is, if Golden St. blows this series again, the media will roast Durant. His legacy has already been hurt by joining the most stacked team in the NBA. Everyone will just know him as the guy who jumped on the bandwagon to win a ring.

Cp was a trade. KD was a FA. You can't block a FA from going to where he wants. Just like LeBrick and the Heat.

I'm not acting like he should win. He shouldn't. If he was a great as they say he would at least have a chance though.

He should be roasted if they lose. Just like LeBron was roasted when his hand picked superteam lost. I never said KD was some all time great.

They say LeBron is challenging Jordan though. That is completely asinine. My argument is he is not as great as they try to make it. He is great. But not all time top 5 great.

Take Lebron off those Miami teams and they're decent
Take Durant off GSW and they're still in the finals

The only reason those Miami teams were considered a super team was bc Lebron was on it

When Lebron goes to the Heat, he's soft and can't carry his team to an Championship.

When Durant goes to the Warriors, he made a great decision and it fits his play style better.

Lebron gets criticized for everything but when another player does it, it's ok. It just goes to show how bad people can't stand Lebron because he's the best in the NBA.

if Lebron can pull it off, hes with Jordan in NBA immortality. Honestly, hes already there. Jordan was the greatest I ever saw. I have no idea how he stacks up against Rusell or Wilt. I'm not a big Kareem dude, so I am a bit in between.

You're right. I haven't heard any criticism of Durant for joining the Warriors.



Oh wait.

Forget about what the team does and just look at what Lebron does. It's hard to win as an underdog because Lebron can only control so much. He can control how he plays and despite having the other team completely focus on him, he's coming off 5 great finals appearances in a row, hence my question "have you watched basketball in the last 6 years?"

How would Lebron be viewed if he played his whole career in the West? He'd have a perfect finals record but less appearances
