<p>I dont like the Cavs. They are an amalgam of all things evil and esembled at the behest of the most entitled brat of recent NBA memory. However today GSW really went above and beyond on the fucktard stakes. Lebron actually came of like a half decent human being by games end. He interviews really well. Probably better than most.<br><br>
On the flip side...Curry ejected for the first time in his career after acting like a fucken child for a good portion of the game. Klay left for the locker room before the end of the game(a serious dick move and sporting faux pas) and Green is just Green.<br><br>
I dont have a dog in the fight and i dislike Lebron(on court) greatly. But go Cavs.<br><br>

<p>Kinda how I feel. Was liking the GSW. But they have become assholes, And not cool 'dont care' assholes.. but just assholes.</p> -
<p>It was a shame to see Curry acting like a child and tossing his mouthguard today, he has had a great season, but this just makes him look like a poor sport. Good touch to wander over and apologise to the guy straight away, but to say in the press conference "I was aiming it at the scorers bench, but my aim was off" is pretty average - as if the officials deserve to cop a saliva covered mouthguard instead. </p>

<p>I've always been an LBJ fan and have followed him from the Cavs, to Miami and back. While Curry is the MVP, if I was going to bet my life on someone to have a huge game in game 7, I'd be putting it on LBJ, not Curry. Curry has been a bit guilty of going missing in some of the big playoff games. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I still think GSW will probably win game 7, but what a game it's gonna be!</p> -

<p>It's quite incredible how many times the NBA finals get to game 7</p>

I took that comment to mean the actual bench structure, not the officials. -
I don't really have an issue with what Curry did. Not a fan of it personally, but it's nothing I haven't seen from Lebron, D Wade, Westbrook, KD, Jordan, Rip Hamilton, and I could list probably 30 others that have lost it, looked like a fool all over a refs call.

<div>Game 7 promises to be great, I honestly have no idea who will win. As a GSW fan I'm hoping they get up ('the legacy' is at risk), but I wouldn't be too annoyed to see Cleveland win. Would be an all-time epic comeback for a city that has had its heart ripped out on numerous occasions.</div>

<p>It would be ironic if the Cavs come back from the brink of elimination and win it all for the first time after the Warriors escaped from a 3-1 deficit in the WC finals. LeBron has been criticised in the past for not showing up when it really matters (unfairly) and there will be no bigger stage than a game 7 away from home. The momentum is certainly with the Cavs even if history is against them.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I remember watching the late 80s/early 90s Cavs loss to the Bulls (Jordan's "shot" over Ehlo) and also watched the Indians lose in the World Series twice. Cleveland's luck has gotta turn eventually...</p> -
<p>It's been a weird finals series, defined by incredible momentum shifts back and forward in big series.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm not convinced the Warriors have what it takes to turn it around, but home advantage is huge here.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If Cleveland win it will be an all time series, for a number of reasons. It will also enshrine Lebron's legacy as a top 3-4 all time player, single-handedly dragging his home town to a drought-breaking title. But on the flipside it will ensure the Warriors legacy as back-to-back champs, similarly an 'all time' side. So much on the line... I can't wait!</p> -
<p>GSW shooting 3 pointers and Cleveland not.. is going to decide this. All square 6.5 minutes to go.. but I think GSW by 10</p>

<p>Fucking yes.. suck dick you groin fetish GSW piston wristed gibbons!</p>

<p>I never used to like Le Bron much, but he has grown on me this season. What a player.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Plus the fact I grew to really dislike GSW.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have not been this happy for a team to lose in a long long time.</p> -
<p>I'm pretty fucking far from a LBJ fan, but his effort this series is some all-time shit. What an athlete. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Well done Cavs. </p>
