I know Curry is at times still just incredible, but I feel like when I watch him, he’s slowing down a bit, a year or two ago it seemed he could get his shot off vs anyone at anytime.
He’s still the best shooter I’ve seen, but it just seems like he doesn’t have that same quickness he once did, maybe it’s just he hasn’t fully healed from the leg injuries this year I don’t know.

When did Eric Gordon become a defensive stud? Amazing what happens when a team adds a great defensive assistant. Everyone seems to get better at it.

I would guess Chris Paul -- the master or rubbing people the wrong way -- has rubbed off on him. CP, despite being known as one of the best defenders, doesn't get enough credit for how tough and disciplined he is on that side of the ball. I don't think I've ever seen a guy his size with the strength and legwork to pen players in on the sideline without [hardly] using his hands.

Yeah he has to get some credit for sure. Every team he has been on has been "feisty" on D. But this guy made a difference too:

Where's Kyrie Irving
 
Come on Boston
 
Both series will go to 7 games, no way the NBA lets either series end in 6. Too much money and ratings at stake.

I already said cavs were going to win tonight...see above
 
LeBron pullin' his dick out now...

Put that thing away BRON!!!

You're scaring the Celtics!!!
 
Missed most this game out with my wife. Looks like Lebron did, what Lebron does from the box score, what happened to Love says he only played 5 minutes?
I also see from the post above Lebron has apparently exposed himself lol, not sure why that cracks me up so much -​

Okay, let's be the guy that's bet the Crocs in the first two series and predicted that they have no chance in this series...
 
Celtics reminded me of the Blazers tonight
 
Lebron doesn't get to play game 7 at home. Celtics will finish this sunday.

We’ll, at this point in Lebrons career I won’t be betting against him to lose game 7. I will say it’s weird how each of these teams looks so different on the road.

I'm not betting on him to lose. I'm rooting for the Celtics to win. I've seen lebron James in the finals for the last decade. Celtics make it interesting.

I understand why people feel that way, but I think Lebron has a better chance to beat Houston or GS (Not that either team have a great shot).
