    Why? He won't get called for it. Most protected player in the league.

    It could still happen. Curry's game is so damn, umm.. sensitive that any disturbance in his, umm... force, this time in the form of pressure from the stage and Kyrie showing him up, disrupts his shot and game. Draymond looks to have intimidated the refs in this game, but I'm pretty sure that after some calls and select replays from the Cavs to the league office that the refs in the next games will be ready for him and eject his dumb self from the game if he behaves like he did tonight. That takes out two of the big four.

    Warriors are unbeatable when at full strength and front running, but there is a chink in their armor that the Cavs have found and are exploiting. Warriors on the other hand have absolutely no answer for dominance of LeBron or the balls on Kyrie.

    This thing is getting interesting.

    If LeBron completes the comeback from down 0-3, he's the GOAT. No questions.

    that's being optimistic.

    realistically cavs are getting waxed game 5. took a historic offensive performance just to win and steph was off.
    i really hope they can pull it off but they will need so many things to go right and bron to play a full 48 and kyrie to drop 35+ again. dude cant sit for more than 2 minutes without cavs getting outscored by 10. it's crazy.

    I don't agree with that. There are games like tonight that he seems to intimidate refs and he knows it so he acts a fool. But it won't last.

    I agree. Damn for sure will be a 7 game series. 3-0 is just too much to overcome.

    I honestly think Cavs would of swept if the Warriors stayed the same and didn't add Durant. He's been the difference.

    Thing is if they won G3 I don't think they play this well tonight. I also don't think GS plays this bad.

    They needed a historic night to blow them out, but not to beat them. In a close game, I'm taking the Cavs. They do need to figure out what to do when LeBron gets some rest. The Kyrie led group probably has to slow it down to minimize the damage.

    lol no chance they sweep. i would pick them over warriors w/o durant though that's for sure. kd has been incredible. IMO, he and bron are back to showing the true gap between those 2 and everyone else - and that includes kawhi, russ, harden, AD, steph, etc...
