    Aside from the fact that this guy has yet to show up (many other players on his team are nowhere to be found too), I noticed something yesterday that was a bit funny to me. A couple of days ago, he told reporters that he thought Draymond was a dirty player kicking players in the groin and such. I don’t disagree with him. In fact I sympathize with him. 

    Let me preface by saying that I am rooting for LeBron to win. Been a fan since his HS days. Subsequently rooting for the Cavs. But I have to say I hope I wasn’t the only one who noticed that JR slipped his foot in the landing spot of KD and Steph last night on a couple of occasions. If I recall right, he may have done this in the first game too. Dude has like 4 fouls on potential four point plays. 

    Anyone else notice? Otherwise why even foul and give a team thats already lights out from deep multiple chances at four point plays?

    It’s crazy how demoralizing this Warriors team is. I’ve never seen anything like it. People say this is how the NBA has always been but I have a hard time believing that there’s ever been a time where fans of every other team were all depressed knowing one team was gonna win the next 5 years. Maybe that’s how the feeling was with the early 00s Lakers, but they at least had to have a game 6 rigged to beat the Kings and had some good series. Golden State’s about to go 16-0 and the only people that have enjoyed it are Warriors fans, Warriors “fans,” and Lebron haters

    I don’t know if JR did what you said or not, but I wouldn’t be surprised because for how bad it is for fans right now, I can’t even imagine how bad it must be for the players knowing what the next 5+ years are gonna be like

     the JR disappearing act in game 1 was pathetic. Game 2 was not much better.

    He needs to be shooting at minimum 12-15 shots per game. & not get caught out of position where the officials call it every time against him,even if it was cheap.

    I think unless Shump continues to have hydration issues he will get the start in game 3. Did a half way decent Job on Durant but more importantly gave Lebron some freedom. The Cavs looked good in the first half & would have had a lead going into the half if it were not for the biased officiating & the poor play of JR and Irving.

    I am probably beating this to death but if it wasn’t for the corruption in the officiating I think the Cavs could have had a shot in the 2nd half at slowing down the pace and keeping it closer. Ultimately they might have lost anyway having again been trying to run with GSW in the first half but probably could have at the least kept it close due to GSW turnovers at which point anything is possible. 

    The Cavs need JR to step up along with Irving or they will get swept even if the Officiating suddenly turns in their favor as I expect it will in games 3 and 4.

    There is a pattern here, a blueprint so to speak. The league really needs to put a lid on the outside influences and let the teams compete.

     I saw him pass up a wide open three in the corner to dribble into his defender and jack up a contested three.  Plus when he is your third best defender…good luck.

    He’s a funny guy, remember when he untied shoe laces, lol, Idk if he was dirty or anything like that, but sometimes his head was not in the game really, but he comes a long way since joining cleveland.

     

    Warriors is so dominating. Never seen anything like them in this era, their the only team who plays like this, Hat’s off to Steve Kerr for fully enganging the potential of this team that Mark Jackson didn’t. Im’ looking forward to 2020, (hoping the warriors are old that time and not so dominant anymore) lol

     The series isnt over. Warriors are and have been heavy favourites to win but never count out King James.
