Live Thread: Star Wars

Gordon Gund is in the house. Craig Sager is in the house. Dr. J and Urban Meyer are in the house.
After Kyrie and LeBron gave us a new hope, the Empire is ready to splash back. If Steve Kerr was ever going to wear out his Death (Star) Lineup – tonight’s the night.
With The Groin Reaper back in tow, the Cavs will be witnessing the power of the fully operational battle station.
Whatever. This isn’t a trap – it’s an opportunity. Tonight is the second last step to the summit. The chance to vanquish narratives and cement legacies.
The Warriors cannot be allowed to make locker room champagne comments.
Let’s go.
Apparently Iggy has a back issue really affecting him….I don’t doubt it, but so does everyone else…
Does anyone know any GS fans? Do they actually watch these games and think the refs are crappy because we get calls? It’s fascinating to think two groups of humans can watch the same thing and be biased enough to draw opposite conclusions. Or maybe their fans sort of know they are getting a few more than us.
Every fanbase thinks the refs are exclusively screwing them every single game. Which is why I very rarely complain about it, outside an occasional terrible call.
Cavs’ lead has gone from 22 to 8 back to 16
Have to imagine Frye or Delly will come off the bench in the 2nd half
Ask and you shall receive on Bron attacking Iggy.
LeBron sees TT calling for it
https://vine.co/v/il5ABTHLwXK
The King is simply beautiful to watch in transition.
JR and Kyrie are playing such good D tonight
That’s drive from James was awesome. Just the briefest flinch and the threat of his passing opened that up.
https://vine.co/v/il5AKTmY2Z9
LeBron playing such an efficient game right now
TT and JR are both having stellar games tonight to complement KI/LBJ
Big foul on Curry.
Especially as their offense was starting to get going.
Curry is an idiot. Talented as all get out, but Dray and Klay have the brains on that team.
Curry is grabbing Irving on every pick.
He missed but how was that waved off?
Curry not called grabbing Kyrie at the start of that drive.
Frye or Die, Frye or Die!
I’ll let Curry jack up 40 footers all day if he wants…
Agreed
Seriously what did Delly do?
I’m shocked right now he’s not even playing..
He must be banged up somehow.
Or maybe when Lue said “only get in the plane if of think we can win” Delly took a bus back to Cleveland
It reminds me of Casspi and Grumpy.
It may be what he didn’t do
Good bait Mo.
Move the dang ball Cavs! You look like a junior high team all of a sudden
They need to close this quarter with some defense and some scoring, GSW has 27 points in 7 minutes
Can’t stop that 30 foot Curry shot
Bring in Delly. NOW!
What happened to the defense? Ughhh
Please bring in Delly! Shump is a disaster
With Iggy out again it seems like we should be able to get a mismatch in the front court
Stop hating on Shump. He was really good last game
No. He was not. He was bad last game. Just because you saw him make one or two plays does not erase all the crap plays. On offense and defense.
+ a zillion…
He has single handedly given away three possessions. And lost us game 4. He doesn’t deserve your support
Ref’s have majorly affected this game. Holy crap man.
Ken Mauer is a joke and is showing why fans don’t trust this league
LeBron hits from his happy place
https://vine.co/v/il5a30IAbh7
Tighten the defense now guys. Don’t let them get any momentum.
Lebron should attack Iggy right now. I don’t understand why he isn’t.
How many times has Curry had to let the Cavs score already because of his foul trouble?
https://vine.co/v/il5aH27zDXV
It’s hard to believe Delly can’t play better D than Shump right now.
Argh. Cavs still be up 20 if not for Shump. Horrible horrible horrible so far.
Shumpert has been pretty awful all season, and the playoffs, and Lue just keeps going to him.
Shump’s basketball IQ is like negative 1000
Refs keeping Warriors in the game.
And Shump
Shump is the -/+ King….
Took me a second.
Please just send Shump home.
Don’t see why Frye couldn’t get some of those minutes..
TT from JR
https://vine.co/v/il5aq9z1uD1
Ugh Lebron. If you’re going to get called for an offensive foul, please annihilate Curry.
Iggy looks gimpy as shit
Shumpert is garbage on D so far wanna see some Delly.
Yes. Or Mo even…
LeBron’s had his game face on tonight.. stone cold
Don’t relax guys, I know I sound like a broken record but the key is to not let them get their rythm.
Andy, Andy, oh my gawd…
Call on Love was awful and then it looked like Barbosa went over the back of Kyrie to smack that ball off the Cavs.
Curry actually came to play. Thankfully the Cavs are being big and mean to everyone else. Plus Shump is god awful.
Nice long rest for LeBron…
Yes, with lots of stoppages for foul, commercials, and free throws.
Cavs making the Warriors pay for playing Andy by putting him in switches and attacking.
Go to the Chinese leagues, Andy
Trying to be a “fake tough guy” – probably getting it from Bray
https://vine.co/v/il5aBJTdTeY
Kyrie over Andy
https://vine.co/v/il5BqzO0JhD
Refs trying to get the warriors back in the game…
Come on Cavs keep your focus!!
Curry must be at only 40% again….his health may improve dramatically as the game progresses, though…
Great comment lol
UNBELIEVABLE call on Love. Ridiculous…
Second worst call of the series on that Love foul, after the Kyrie ball that didn’t go out of bounds in game 5.
https://vine.co/v/ililtzq0eXu
If Love is gonna get whistled for that, may as well make his balls pay…
Wow. That call might have been the worst of. The finals and that’s saying something.
Such a late and horrible call right there… Love back to the bench with 3 fouls.
Is that ref high?
Hate that late whistle bs
Love gets on the board! One point.
Shump with three bad defensive possessions so far.
That’s why he makes the big money…
Irving hits with Livingston in his face
https://vine.co/v/iliLEYDnhJH
Hold serve this qtr…..please…
Let’s see how long of a break Lue gives LeBron (or LeBron gives himself)
Not a good foul from Shump.
