KD and Steph both have pressure. Steph came up smaller than his frame when it mattered most last year.

 

 

No doubt but Steph has a title without KD already and has proven his mettle in the Finals as well. He'll be fine. If the Warriors don't win it all then all of the fingers will likely be pointed at KD. Similar to when LeBron when he joined the Heat and they lost in the Finals.

Warriors in six, but five will not shock me.

Can LeBron guard KD??

Game 1 is blowout city for the Splash Brothers....

I still won't think he is the GOAT even if he wins this year. MJ beat MVPs in the finals(Barkley, Malone) also but he couldn't beat 3 straight MVPs because he was actually the MVP. I understand why most folks think LeBron is or will be the GOAT but to put it simply he has never dominated the NBA the way MJ did.

 

I look at it this way. Jordan won 6 straight championships in seasons which he played. We might never know the truth as to whether he was suspended those two years or "retired" to pursue baseball as the official story goes, but I believe had he continued playing the Bulls might have won 8 straight.

FULL seasons which he played. They lost to Orlando in the second round shortly after "I'm back."

I agree wholeheartedly.

It pains me to have to take up for him. Pains me!!!!!

 

I loved reading this thread. Also as me being the boards #1 Kobe hater. Why is it a foregone conclusion Lebron's career has passed Kobe ?

That is false too but I understand why people feel this way.

So far it looks like the NBA wants some more games than 4 fouls our 2-1 so far on the Warriors early in the 2nd qt FT's are 12-2 in favor of the Cavs.

Cavs playing so much better at home may have an actual series now.

Is the NBA wanting a game 5 FT's in first qt. 20-9 and fouls are 11-5.

Cleveland is shooting 58.3 from both the 2 and 3pt attempts and have set an all time NBA record for most points scored in any qt 49 points. The Cavs also shot 22 FT's in the quarter. Great start for the Cavs. The question is can they do it for an entire game tonight.

The first quarter with all the fouls on the Warriors took about 35 minutes to play.

Cavs actually shot 22 FT's in the 1st qtr. The officiating has been very one sided in my opinion.

The refs are bad tonight how do you miss that over and back.
