Can the Cavs respond? They hit 28 from 79 shots. That's pitiful for a finals team.
Lose game 3 and its curtains.
Who was the best player from game 2? Curry with 7-11 shooting and 18 total points. 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 4 turnovers. But he played only 25 minutes. I don't think those are Finals MVP numbers.
Looks like Love had a stinker.
Looks like Bogut had a great game defensively, but only playing 15 minutes.
I hope Varejao gets the start just for the lols if GSW go 3-0 up. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Green seems to have done the damage, putting up 28 points while the Cavs sat on the GSW "stars". Not that I understand much about the game - but it just seems that GSW have more avenues to the basket. That is, a more even spread of offensive talent. |

In the third game, James and Irving are doing the damage, with 41 of the Cavs' 77 points so far, between them. With about 3 minutes to go in the third quarter, the Cavs lead 77:59. |

Looks like it's going to be the Team who can WIN Away will win the Title _________________ I am Da Man |

It's very strange, DTM - I can't really believe that a change of venue should result in a 63 point turnaround between game 2 and game 3. |

What a ridiculous series.
Three games, three smashings. But its 2-1. Cant help but wonder where the Thunder would be in a series against the Cavs right now?
Curry surly cant win the finals MVP if GSW get up? He'd need to do something special in their next two wins. He's been far from the best player in each of the 3 games played so far.
Sounds like K Love is out for the rest of the series too.
Its tough when you dont really want either team to win. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

3-1 Warriors.
Curry finally has a huge game. Does one big game from four get you the MVP though?
Next game is back in GS where I'll hope the Cavs win. Then I'll hope that GS win it in Cleveland and someone other than Curry gets the MVP.
It just irks me that they beat the 72-10 record.
Questions about LBJs future will arise after this series too. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Green rubbed out of game 5. Some what of a joke really, considering he should have been rubbed out in the Conference Final.
Anyway, I guess thats him out of the MVP race. Apparently he isnt even aloud in the building.
I hope the Cavs push it to game 6 and then get beaten at home. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

You may get your wish. The Cavs win game 5 by 15 (112:97) and trail 2:3 in the series. Bogut is hurt and will probably miss the rest of the final series. James and Irving both scored 41 for the Cavs and for GSW Thompson 37 and Curry 25. |

There is no way that Curry can win the Finals MVP now. He has been far from the best player in the series.
Bad news for Bogut. I felt like he needed a bit of redemption after losing his starting spot last year and not playing in the final game. At least he started every game and played some minutes, but now it seems Iggy will start in the C position.
Can the Cavs get it back to San Fran?? _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

Game 7 it is.
Wow. What a strange series it has been. And still, I'm not sure who I'd prefer to win.
As far as MVP goes:
*If Cavs win it will be LeBron, with Irving a slight outside chance.
*But if GSW win, who will it go to? It cant be Barnes or Iguodala. It cant be Green after being suspended for a game. I highly doubt Livingston will get it, even after his huge game 1. And Curry has been far from the best player in all but one of the games. So I guess this leaves Klay. But like Curry, he hasn't been the best player on the court for most of the series.
I feel like the Cavs deserve to win it now. And if they do, it will put the billions upon billions of Warriors fans back in their box. But this is the Cavs. One of the teams I have enjoyed seeing fail over the years. But since none of their fans know who Craig Ehlo is, I suppose it doesn't matter any more. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

In a side note, Dellavedova has done NOTHING in this series. _________________ A Goal Saved Is 2 Goals Earned! |

So, there you have it. Cavs won the last 3 games to take the series 4:3. In today's game, they won 93:89. |
