Will update thread title when Warriors finally beat those annoying Rockets.
 
For the second consecutive season an Australian has won the NBA Championship.

It's a good time to be an Australian basketball fan.
 
If the Cavs win the Title is Kevin Love more or less likely to leave this off-season?
 
As a coach Steve Kerr is neat to hear comment on a game and the play. The guy knows basketball.
 
This is one of the few finals where I am actually pleased to see either team win. I really just cannot straight up hate either team, yes LeBron is kind of annoying, but he's one of the few superstars that I don't just straight up hate. That said, I will be rooting for Golden State. I like the way they play, I really enjoy Kerr and how he has the team not only playing with such elite confidence; but also I enjoy the fact that they just have fun playing basketball.

It is rare in this day in age that professional teams of any sport actually legitimately have fun playing their chosen profession, and it's quite clear that the Warriors just have fun playing together. It reminds me of last years Blazers, but just on an entirely different plane of elitism that I can only envy and hope to one day see the Blazers at.

The Warriors reminds me a lot of the last women's world cup where the Japanese women's team simply just seemed to have fun playing, whereas the American women just seemed to be there to win and couldn't enjoy the moment. The Japanese ended up winning that world cup in a down to the wire last second prayer, and an absolute trouncing in the penalty shootout. Go Warriors!
 
The Cavs really seemed to gel once they replaced Love with Thompson in the starting lineup.
I can't help but think they end up doing a sign and trade with the Lakers and getting Julius Randle back for their efforts.
Maybe it will take some of the sting out for giving away the rookie of the year.

Did anyone see the pic of Harden sleeping with the stripper on Twitter? Dude can't win no matter what he does.
 
The media loves Golden State, so I'm for Cleveland. The Cavs were up 14, but they (mostly LeBron) kept missing stupid impatient long shots early in the clock. At halftime they're up 3. The Cavs are getting hustle stats, rebounding and stealing, but missing stupid circus shots.
 
I'm rooting Cavs too, no offense to Warriors. Warriors would possibly be up 20 now if it wasn't for Shumpert hitting a couple threes when the Oracle was about to explode. He quieted the crowd and stopped the Warriors from running away with it.
 
Are the Cavs bigger than the Warriors, or do they just play bigger?

When they hustle, you see a bigger blur than when the Warriors hustle.
