Irving also shit the bed the last 2 possessions when Curry switched on to him.

Clearly he was intimidated.

Curry is not a good defender but he clearly plays his ass off on that end of the floor as well. Disrupted a lot of passing lanes tonight. Also was big on the boards

What about when Jordan passed to Paxson and Kerr in the deciding moments on the 93 and 97 finals?

Cleveland couldn't have played better. To lose a game like that has o hurt. They'll lose by 20 next game.

They were not down 2-0. LeBron was having a great game and shouldn't have passed the ball. The Cavs should have won or lost because of him.

That ending was too sloppy. Durant was huge though.

They were not down 2-0. LeBron was having a great game and shouldn't have passed the ball. The Cavs should have won or lost because of him.

If Korver makes that shot everyone's praising Lebron's facilitating. Then again, I know you're a Kobe fan, so you'd prefer a guy miss 50 times in the clutch rather than get an assist once.

Sloppy by the Cavs. Warriors were close to perfect the last two minutes.

Lebron is a cuck. Somewhere, Delonte West is laughing.

I would prefer my star and the best player in the world to take a potential game deciding shot over anyone. Especially when we are down 0-2.

I would prefer my star play the percent and find the best shot when the other team has collapsed in the post. Irving's subsequent possession where he just pissed about with the ball while unable to get any separation from Klay was far worse than anything Lebron did.

It's exactly why LeBron should have shot the ball. He was getting to the basket at will and having a great offensive game. The best play was for him to shoot.

He wasn't getting to the basket at will on that play. Green was playing him well on the drive and Durant was in prime help position before the kickout. The pass is the smart read in that situation and Korver's on the floor precisely for that shot.

He had already beaten Green and should have attacked the basket. It's fine to make that pass earlier in the 4th or if they were up 2-0 in the series. You simply cannot live or die with Kyle Korver when you are the best player in the world.

No he had not, in fact, beaten Green on the dribble. Feel free to change your spin to how he should've done that and that's why he sucks or whatever, as your current recollection of the play is inaccurate.

You're WRONG. This isn't about LeBron sucking or anything so you can pull your panties out of your ass. It's all about what you want for your team. Most people would agree with me. I want LeBron shooting the ball 100 out of 100 times in a similar situation. Why? Because he's the best fucking player in the world and he was scoring at will that game.

LeBron was +7 in 46 minutes on the court and his team lost by 5. I have a hard time criticizing anything he did tonight.

Then why aren't you angrier about Kyrie playing "my turn" during an even more crucial part of the game? There was still over a minute left when this play went down; Jordan passed the ball later in the game on both occasions I mentioned. I'm a diehard Jordan stan but you really make the case against Lebron look a lot weaker when you're going at him with such weak stuff.

They won a championship with him doing that exact same move. It was a bad shot because he had not made one all night. This game was lost on the defensive end. They have no answer for Durant.

LeBron should have taken that shot too. This isn't a LeBron vs Jordan thing. Remove LeBron and replace him with another top 10 player and I'll say thing.

Kyrie made a bad decision in crunch time, but we're supposed to chalk up their failure to the defense? I'm pretty sure that "exact same move" probably created much more separation last year than it did on Klay on that play.

So Jordan shouldn't have passed to Paxson or Kerr, and it's a blow to his legacy despite the fact that they happened to make those shots?

They gave up 118 points so yeah it's the defense. Bad shot but you have to gets stops and they can't stop this team with Durant. I'm not going to blame James or Irving. They both played their ass off. Without either it's a blowout.

It's not just the points. All the easy buckets in transition and screen roll. Got to make them work at least.

The game was in their hands down the stretch and Golden State didn't regain the lead until there was one minute left, regardless of how many points they ended up with. That's a failure at both ends of the floor IMO.
