Look's like we're about to have a three game series unless the Cavs can pull off a very hard core run. With the way they shoot FTs and that the Warriors are (basically) daring anyone other than Lebron (smart move) to beat them I don't see the Cavs coming back here. Hopefully I didn't just jinx it for the Warriors fans.

Looks like you will be a happy guy when its all said and done because Cleveland is fucked.
They are gonna have a hard time winning game 5 and almost no chance winning game 7. The longer this series goes the more it favors GS. Cleveland should of won that OT game 1 and they would have been in drivers seat 3-0 and essentially won the series. But now LeBron might lose another finals.

Warriors defense has been playing Lebron extremely well all series, if they get their offense going like tonight then the Cavs are completely fucked

Amen to that (the bold). I can honestly say I have never seen a player get "hurt" as often as he does when his team is either losing or a massive momentum shift takes place. Fuck man.... why he doesn't just drive.. EVERY single time he gets the ball is beyond me. EVERY time, no pass, no nothing.. just drive. Who in the fuck can stop him without fouling him? Nobody. He would score 50 points per game..... but no... he apparently thinks he weighs 100 pounds and isn't built like a brick shithouse.
Note: I absolutely love watching Curry play. The guy reminds me (personality wise) of Durant so much. Stellar player, seems like a great guy, doesn't gripe, get's the job done, no excuses. I love watching Curry do what he does. Such a pleasure in this day and age.

It's kinda awkward how many sports and 'news' outlets are running with the Lebron penis story with full-on dick-slip clips on their website. If it were some upskirt of a hollywood whore not wearing panties getting of a limo women's groups would be going crazy. Where are all the feminists bitching about them exploiting Lebron?!
In other news, the Lebron Sprite is really good.

LeBron would truly be the King if he said something about it to that extent. Why is it okay to run multiple stories about this when the opposite causes utter mayhem? Man... even the non athletic goobers would call him King if he took the time to do that. Of course he won't and I don't blame him. Although I will say that I just want to watch my sports and truly miss the days when sports reporting was.... sports reporting.

Ummm, not even close. They needed a backup to play phenomenally in one game for a win and GS shot their worst game of the year for the other one. Smith is worthless, Delly is a backup who is done, Mozzy is ok, and Iman is a shump. GS is just getting started and Cleveland has no depth. Done in 6. LBJ has done an amazing job but that team is BAD.
On the other topic, I'd flop all the time too if they gave it to me. He's not even close to The Great Bearded One on getting fouls called all game though. Damn solid finals with the usual refs help but this show is done.

It hasn't been a blowout until this last game. Act like a team of 7 players and all but one is JAG had a better chance than the better team. GS started slow and LBJ is amazing but this series is done. It might go to seven but even you know what happens when LBJ is off the floor for Cleveland. He cant keep it up and they suck.

The Cavs should have been up 3-0? Umm, they could have, sure, but just as easily as the Warriors could have as well. If the Cavs lose are you going to bitch that it's not fair because in some bizarro world the Cavs should have been up 3-0 and should have won the series, they just didn't, because in our actual reality they lost?
I missed where anyone was acting like it's been a blowout for GSW, except the last game that was an actual blowout.

Why should the Cavs have been up 3-0? Sure, they COULD have been up 3-0 if they hit a couple of game winners, but by that logic GSW could just as easily have gone 4-0

The fourth quarter was way more dominant for the Warriors than the first. Warriors played a center for a total of three minutes last night. Cavs had trouble keeping up and it totally gassed them by the fourth quarter.

I don't disagree with your analysis often but I think you're a little off base here. Kerr made major game plan changes in game 4 and they payed off huge. Cleveland doesn't even have the personnel to contemplate something like that.
The series isn't over. LeBron is certainly still capable of hero balling the Cavs to be in the running of any game and then all it takes from there is Curry and Klay having another off night. I'm not sure I'd count on that though.
But all the credit in the world to Kerr. The Ws really let the Cavs control the pace of the first three games and they came out and reversed that completely this last game. Play small. Push every possession and let Iggy play a point forward role more to free Curry up off the ball. It was great game planning.
