I was just on a board that said that the Cavs will get swept because Kyrie, Love and JR are all bad defenders so that means that Bogut/Green, Curry and Thompson will have big games.

Room for one more?
If we can defend Curry with the same physicality that Igodola was allowed to defend Durant with the series is over in 4
Always room for more.

I really think Green should get a flagrant 1 for his judo takedown on Adams. I don't see how the NBA can possibly view that as a basketball play.

They viewed a kick to the groin as one, maybe they appreciate the new mma style GSW bring to the game

I've got to say, the evolution of Green has been extremely... odd. Would've been hard to predict how this played out.
He went from an extremely raw and undersized big man who played very sparingly to one of the most well rounded players in the NBA. An extremely poor man's LeBron (this is a compliment). He could affect the game in all the same ways. He was a hugely underrated part of the Warriors success.
Then the media caught on that hey, this guy doesn't barrage 3 pointers, but he is pretty damn good at basketball and the media created monster begun.
He was voted back to back DPOY awards, had people calling him the most well rounded basketball player in the league (a league LeBron plays in), and somewhere along this line his head swelled to the size of a dwarf planet. He has become an absolute clown hated by many. I really don't think the players like Draymond at all (outside of teammates obviously). He learned that the league will have his back and has been blatantly taking advantage of it since. He plays with a complete disregard for other players, and has went from an underrated player to IMO one of the more overrated guys in the league. He is still a great player, but he should never be compared to LeBron. That is merely asinine.
Would be an interesting 30 for 30 one day. I would never watch it, but this is a really interesting evolution of a player.
Remember a kick to the groin is legal. So is flailing and kicking players in the head. However a punch to the groin is not legal. Neither is a closed fist to the head...

Listening to Mike and Mike and to fs radio this morning (I live in KY so I can't listen to local Cleveland stations in the car.) You would think the warriors already won the ship. Its insane. I can't remember who they were interviewing but he said he thinks if they are not to tired then they faced their toughest opponent they will have with the thunder... And he also said they came through adversity last year in the playoffs but I can't think of any adversity they had because they didn't play 1 healthy team...
Anyways. I have never heard discussion about a final and people not talk about LeBron. And I listened to 45 minutes of sports radio talking about the finals and Lebrons name didn't come up once. I can't believe i'm saying this but they are underrating Lebron and this cavs team.

Don't expect the scoring, but I think he'll be much more efficient. He should rack up the assists and boards though.
Man, that Iggy sure did shut LeBron down.

I really wish this narrative would stop. He got called for a flagrant 1 in game for this. And it was upgraded to a flagrant 2 after league review. If they upgraded the arm pull-down to a flagrant 1, he's missing game 1. If they upgraded it to a flagrant 2, he's missing games 1 and 2.

I was just going to post about this. How the fuck is that not a flagrant in the game? Fucking Green acting like he got dropped on his head when he's the one causing all the action. I didn't even watch the game because I was so mad after game 6, but this now has me infuriated. The donkey is going to injure someone.

that was a straight up arm drag. Olynyk "Defense". That should have been a flagrant 2. not a basketball move, follow through, all of the criteria.
