Lebron is 1-7 in the first game of the finals so this is par....but Cleveland got wrecked and outside of them getting some better offense out of Love and the bench, it really doesn't look like they have the chops to dig out of any hole against the dubs.

First, I didn't compare to a desk job. I compared to an employee which he is. Regardless of the amount of money any employee makes, most are always aware of what others make and they would change jobs to make more if they could. This is the human nature part of my post. Just because he makes a lot of money doesn't mean he doesn't have those human instincts to try to do better if he can.

Second, exactly why do you think KD is a bitch? What the heck did he do other than change teams after 8 years. Why is that some kind of a crime. If you'd worked at a company for 8 years and had a better offer with the chance of being part of the top company in your industry, wouldn't you take it?


Third, I think you got it wrong. it will be Warriors in 4 games; 2 blowouts and two closer, but 4 games. I'm totally certain of it. 100%. No doubt. For sure. Maybe.

Germanauto, I couldn't agree with you more. LJ is a good player, However, all his record breaking numbers in the playoffs to me, are a joke, along with making the finals 7 consecutive years. LJ started this BS Super Team when he went to Miami. Miami played first round teams below .500. Second round team just at.500. Having the big Three in Wade,and Bosh. I remember when Miami was playing I think it was the Bucks, Miami was up double digits, and they were throwing the ball off the backboard ,then dunking. Really. Your playing a team that shouldn't even be in the NBA. Look, LJ is a freak of nature physically speaking. But to me, he doesn't come close to being the best. Teams respect LJ, they don't fear him like MJ. I would even take Kobe in his prime over LJ. Imagine if Kobe played in the east with Shaq, Penny Hardaway, and the Orlando team. LJ started this Super Team BS. Now he See's what it's like. I hope Cleveland gets a ass whipping every game.

super teams are nothing new. not really sure why people are surprised. maybe it's a generational thing. I think the only difference now is players are creating these teams, not the gm's.

That's the issue. The NBA has been a star-driven league since the 80s, but those teams were built organically through smart drafting and free agent signings (and on a side note, my Pistons did it without stars ). Frankly, I hold zero angst against the Warriors because they were built the right way. Any teams is going to roll out the red carpet for a player of KD's caliber. The whole situation reflects poorly on Durant shouldn't on the Warriors organization.

Now Lebron on the other hand is a bigger bitch than KD. He colluded with two other all-stars in their prime to form a super team. He created a show to announce his LeDecision, danced on stage saying he was gonna with 6+ rings, then got his LeAss handed to him by a mediocre Dallas squad. If it weren't for Allen's 3 and him getting Draymond suspended last yr he'd have 1 ring. Dude is a LeFraud.

I'm glad the Ws got KD. Like I said before, LeFlop created this super team nonsense and now he's getting the karma he deserves. Hopefully the Ws don't choke this away like last year and shut up the Bron Bron nut huggers in the media.

If the Cavaliers lose this series, I could see all the excuses for Leflop. " He didn't have the right players around him. Love isn't good enough, so Leflop wants him traded. Thompson isn't really that good, however, Leflop made sure he got top money, along with JR. There has been so many excuses for Leflop when he loses. However, when he wins, he's the best. I wish Leflop played his entire career in the western conference. He will still be a superstar, However, he won't sniff the finals for 7 consecutive years.

God you're obnoxious. Learn to spell first

Sorry HyeWarrior, I guess you never accidentally tapped a incorrect letter, while typing on a iPad keyboard. If that's the case, you are the only person I know, that's never accidentally spelled a word incorrectly. Kudos to you. Let me guess, your probably one of the many fair-weather LeFlop fans.

I think it's more obnoxious to announce yourself as a member of the spelling police and make a punctuation error in the very post where you are criticizing somebody's spelling.

He lives in an alternate universe where LeBron sizzled out of the league by 2006 and NYK are 3-peat champions

[Flying Ace]

I love how Draymond acts like he's never fouled a guy his whole life. Game's got a different feel than Game 1 huh? Anyone else care to call for the sweep?

[1MOREMOD]

I will, maybe 5 if gs gives them a courtesy win

[Flying Ace]

Curry should keep running those pick and rolls to LeBron.

[ny325]

Good game so far.

[ny325]

Hey Lebron, Thompson just dunked, while your complaining to the officials.

[ny325]

Cleveland is fighting hard, and taking the Warriors hit. Just don't know if they could continue to sustain this intensity in the second half.

[ny325]

NBA TV has " The Dunk King." Pretty impressive dunks.

You must have missed it when LeBron dunked it in Igudola's face

[ny325]

Yes, missed it.

Cuz that's the harder dunk to pull off

[ny325]

Cavs get close, GS pulls away. Waiting for one of those " Warriors scoring run."

[ny325]

The pace of the Warriors, is hard to keep up with. Lebron is taking a lot of jump shots, and not driving to the basket.

[Flying Ace]

Cavs missing point blank shots all night, counted about 14 or so points worth
