  You don't post the entire season on Cavs threads, now you want to show up and show off your basketball "knowledge"? Give me a fucking break.

  If Golden State kept the original game plan, I would have given the Cavs a chance to win. Now they've exploited us and forced us to play small which took out our number one advantage which was protecting the glass. Now we must play small and we cant play their game all night. Lack of depth finally exposes us. Tell me, oh wise one, how does Cleveland counter this? I'll be anxiously awaiting a response from you or S&L.

  "Small ball" is just something the media is literally making up. Iguodola has played something like 3 more minutes in games 4-5 than he did in games 1-3 (got those numbers from the same dumbass media people so I'll have to fact check that).
  
  Basically they've shut down Bogut. But Bogut sucks everyone knows that. Kerr shouldn't be getting all this praise for benching a bad Australian 7 footer.

  I don't post all year long on any thread and very sparingly on this one. Mostly b/c there's no point of coming to a message board anymore. This is about the only one that has any action on this board anymore. Otherwise it's the same 4 people posting on a thread.

  Yeah the media is making up small ball. lol Golden state was playing a 6'7 center most of the game..
  dude.. just stop.
• ZWICK 4 PREZ

  

  btw.. This made up small ball has forced cleveland to play without their center b/c he cant guard a smaller, faster man.
  
  But yeah, that damn media is making it up.

  I have never disagreed with the analysis on why the cavs are losing this series. I even predicted the cavs to lose this series. Don't try and throw me in the same hyperbolic chamber as sleeper. I think that's the part that is going over your head, but LOL at getting defensive about that. I was just calling you out for pretty much implying you rather see the cavs get swept. Shouldn't be surprised since you seem to be a mentally weak defeatist *****, who would rather take the easy way out.
  
  Anxiously waiting your response when you realize I wasn't disagreeing with your analysis on why we are losing this series!!! /zwick

  I just thought it was dumb he rather see the cavs get swept and then he gets butt hurt and wants to be validated by showing of his "knowledge." Classic insecure zwick.

  Unfortunately I'm sure we all know this would happen. You even have losers like society, classy, and thavoice finding their ways in this thread.

  No I'm actually enjoying watching the cavs just being here knowing that, with this roster, they shouldn't be. I'm not under any delusion that they're going to win. And when I pointed that out, you went crazy.

  How fucking dense are you? Let me explain for a THIRD time. I called you out simply for saying the cavs might as well have lost games 2 and 3. I have never been upset with why you think the cavs are losing and why they can't win this series.

  Apparently slightly less dense than you. Cleveland might as well have lost 2 and 3 b/c in the end it doesn't .... fucking... matter. They're not winning a championship this year. what about that don't you get?
• BR1986FB

  I keep wanting to hope/think that the Cavs are going to shock the world and pull out these last two games but I'm thinking that's a pipe dream. GS has figured out where the Cavs are weak (interior defense/no rim protection) and are exploiting it. When they're not doing that, Curry is lighting it up from outside.
  
  Blatt realizes that Moz is a defensive liability and has to sit him so a bunch of GS midgets can penetrate and score at will.
  
  Still holding out hope but my previous optimism is waning. Full strength and the Cavs aren't even playing last night, imo.
  
  When this series is over, it's going to be weird not talking about basketball as much. This has been a fun ride.

  I get all that, and that's why I called you out. You rather see the cavs get swept than be competitive. As I said before, you have a defeatist attitude and rather take the easy way out. You can literally say that about any team that loses a series.
  
  I guess the Spurs would have been better off getting swept by the clips. Same with the clips vs the rockets /zwick
  
  Thanks for solidifying my thoughts you are a mentally weak puss. Did you play any sports outside of golf? I'd hate to coach somebody with that shitty attitude.

  lol just fuck off, you're beyond worthless to respond to. Enjoy your day.

  Sorry but it DOES matter. You have a guy with an injured shoulder (Love) who has the opportunity to opt out of his contract. I think he's going to stay but if they get swept and lay down for GS, that doesn't send the best message to me. Even if they lose this series, having been competitive, that might put the "what if" idea in Love's head and keep him around.

  Yeah I would cop out with this response too, if I were a dumbass that just realized I couldn't comprehend what somebody was arguing. Just admit you were wrong and move on to trying to tell people how smart you think you are.

  Yeah.. It's the Cleveland fan in you that gives you hope. At this point I don't see anything Cleveland can do to counter GS. If we still had at least a healthy Kyrie, I'd give us a chance.. At least a healthy Kyrie forces GS to play big and we can beat them that way. But.. looking at reality, it'll take LeBron dropping 50 and everyone else stepping up. Lebrons exhausted.. so its everyone else. I just don't see it happening anymore.

  You can come up with an abundance of reasons why it's better to win those games than lose them. Only a fucking deaftist ***** would rather lose LOL.

  Dude.. Love isn't going anywhere. He'd be an idiot if he did, just for money reasons alone. The majority of the team will be back next year except for possibly Shump b/c he'll want more than the Cavs probably think he's worth. Nothing about how this series went will affect the team for next year. Next Year is when they should win. If they got swept, it would have been b/c they don't have 2 of the best players in the NBA playing. It wouldn't have sent any other message than that.
  
  Love will be back, Kyrie will be back, and they'll be favorites in the finals next year.
• ZWICK 4 PREZ

  

  I will give Cleveland this though.. They could win if the refs called the game tighter and actually called a foul every time LeBron drove and got fouled. But since that hasn't happened since he's been in the league, I doubt it starts now.

  I'm not guaranteeing anything about them "being back next year." I don't know the free agent pool but I think you're going to see a lot of these Western Conference stars defecting to the East because it's so weak and they will have a better chance at a ring. No guarantee the Cavs make it back. Plus, I would rely on Love or Kyrie. Both seem to have an issue staying healthy.

  I agree that I don't see it happening. The Warriors have figured out how to beat the Cavs and I've said for awhile they'd were going to hit the wall/be gassed. Lebron is the greatest player on the planet but he's not a miracle worker.

  Well it all depends on them staying healthy.. that goes without saying. But they'll have the best team in the league next year.
  2017 will be interesting though.
