Game 34 | Cavs (24-9) @ Warriors (25-6) Monday December 25, 2017 | 3:00 PM EST (Merry Christmas)

I’ll enjoy this season regardless, but we ain’t beating this fucking team in a 7 game series. Coward moved the goalposts. Don’t give a shit though. You LeBron dickriders get ready to become Rockets fans.

Cavs and Cleveland ‘til I die.

Pretty much this

Unless LBJ finds a way to bring someone to Cleveland

Who among these guys you think would have helped?

-Cousins
-PG
-DJ
-Marc Gasol.

Personally, i think Gasol or Cous would be godsend to us against the Warriors. Those two will prevent the Warriors going small and would help LeBron in exploting switches.

While I didn't get a chance to see the full game, can someone explain the early scuffle with KD and why Van Gundy said he should have been tossed?

Also, shooting wise both teams look bad in the spurts I watched. Was that our defense or were the Warriors just missing?

 

[jvpertz]

Can't play Tristan Thompson against the warriors. Sorry!

Don't care how horrific Channing frye is on d. The warriors respect him and will come out to contest him at the 3 point line.

Tristan is just a joke out there. Can't shoot, low basketball iq, no respect by opponent, mental errors as a team defender...we just can't play guys like Tristan, shump, or rose if we want to win....

Sorry

Kevin Durant got one early T for barking at the refs. He should of been tossed because he should of got a 2nd T for bouncing the ball in Calderon chest but the ref didnt call it knowing that would be his 2nd. Basically if the player was not Durant/James Gundy felt the player would of been out of the game.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Agreed. On the bright side I really think having Crowder+Green for Durant defensive purposes are going to be godsends for this team. I know they didn't have Curry but it's not like we doubled Durant much either. Wade also is a big help against them defensively.

If IT can score 23-25 a game efficiently and fits well, I don't think we're in for another 5 game series. I think we can really battle them to 6 or 7 games. Still going to be extremely difficult to win 4 out of 7 but I think we have a better shot than we did last year.

I think, as long as it is Steve Kerr vs. Mr. “Mexico, Missouri is in the house, Baby”, it will be like spotting the Warriors 10 points every game.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Has anyone ever noticed how some posters think that black coaches/players are somehow intellectually inferior and thus too dumb for the game of basketball but the white coaches/players are studs and their game and basketball IQ keeps us in the game and clear low end bench players should be apart of the rotation even without knowing anything about their game or skill set before they even became a Cav? Just an observation! Happy 2018 to all! Keep in mind it's not 1818 okay!

People talk constantly about how LeBron’s basketball IQ is off the charts, like he basically remembers the details of situations from games that happened three years ago. There are reasons to think that Lue is a mediocre coach and Crowder, e.g., is a knucklehead, that have absolutely nothing to do with their pigmentation.

Crowder is a knucklehead?

Kilgore, I always thought your think was being eternally pessimistic, but you'll have to elaborate on that one.

I was responding to a response to a post about how Crowder was a dipshit for stepping on the line. The assertion in the post I was responding to, was that the estimate of Crowder’s IQ as substandard was racially-tinged. I was saying that assertions of racial prejudice were not warranted, as there was no paucity of evidence as to Crowder’s knuckleheadedness.

You aren't winning shit shooting 32%.

Luckily for us we aren't out west and have to dog fight through the rockets, spurs, or okc in the playoffs. The warriors have in for them! lol That shit is going to be a dogfight. I'm taking solace in that if we meet they are definitely going to be banged up.

don't see them losing a game in the west honestly. unless they run into OKC or curry isn't at full health

Surely, as there is no paucity of evidence as to Crowder’s knuckleheadness, you could elaborate as to why you feel the man is a dipshit and knucklehead other than his foot being on the 3 point line.

Well, you were the guy making the accusation of racial prejudice in the FIRST place, so maybe YOU want to say why a guy suggesting that Crowder was a numbnuts is likely to be racist. My point was that there a multiple reasons for suggesting that Crowder might be a numbnuts, with racial prejudice being but one, and not the one you would want to or feel the need to turn to first...
