Cavs Last 4 Games Have Been Better From 3 Than ANY 4 Game Stretch from Golden State

[Consumed]

Fucc outta here I didn't edit the title


Fat Elephant cac made this statement on Mike and Mike this morning and I used his words

...kinda weird to be lying about editing titles but you definitely had Cavs last 4 games have been better than any stretch from golden state

Yeah because Bron can beat Dre and Kawhi off the dribble as eaaily as he can Milsap.

That doesn't matter if love and Kylie is healthy. No team can guard all three when they are healthy. That is why they made Atlanta look so silly. Folks were bytching about the Hawks giving up threes but they had to choose between the 3s or letting Kylie and Lebron live in the paint.

Records only matter if its not the Cavs breaking them

Proud of them. The season had ups and downs. It's awesome seeing them gel together

If they sweep this next round

Suddenly shyt is gonna run dry if they run into Draymond Green shutting down their front court shooters.


Spurs/Thunder are unlikely to let this shyt slide either.

The Cavs beat the Thunder in 6, that is not a series OKC can win.

I actually think the Cavs have a better chance against the Warriors than they do Spurs too, they are right there with both teams though.

Same people said Thunder have no chance against the Spurs. Thunder limited the Spurs to two three pointers last night, if they can stop the cavs from hitting threes they are more than capable of beating them.

I think they're going to put LeBron on Draymond, they'll hide Love on Barnes IMO and live with him trying to take Love off the dribble.

Lebron is too fast for Draymond... Kwahi could only do it when Bron jumper is broken otherwise look at there finals match ups

Like who? @Z-Bo's Deep Thoughts and I were in their game threads during the season saying the Spurs were going to struggle with the athleticism of the Thunder. The Spurs don't take a lot of threes, they were 25th in the season on makes and 26th in the league on attempts, they are losing because the Thunder are controlling the glass & pace.

The Cavs wouldn't lose on the boards like this, and they'd hit threes against them, it's not a good matchup for the Thunder because the Cavs are better at executing, better at shooting, and can keep them off the glass, nevermind the fact the 3rd and 4th scorers on the Cavs (Love & Smith) can hit you for a cool 30 on any given night.

ok what if they run their "lineup of death" with dray at the 5?
theres no way in hell the cavs will trot their own version with love and frye at the 4 and 5....
two defensive liabilities on the court aint happening
love's off ball and on ball defense is trash...if the warriors run their same sets....with cuts and screens...barnes should eat on layups occasionally
and if barnes' shooting is trash i think they'll counter with brandon rush.

I guess we'll find out, the Cavs have a lot of bodies and could run a small lineup with LeBron at the 5, they haven't yet but they could try that as well. In the end, I think they'd live with Barnes getting offense off of isolations and back cuts rather than Curry & Klay taking threes. Brandon Rush can't create off the dribble, that lets Frye/Love off the hook even more so. The Cavs played them tough last year and with a healthy Kyrie I don't think it would be that easy of a series for the Warriors and the potential for the Cavs to upset them is real.

i dont think the series will be a breeze at all
i still have the warriors beating them...but anytime you have lebron and a more than adequate cast of players they're a threat
lowkey...i feel it might benefit the warriors pulling love away from the boards if he's guarding a perimeter player
i just think clevelands bigs will get exposed in some shape or form. offensively with tristan...and defensively with frye or love.
it's the matchup we deserve
last time we were supposed to get a matchup similar to this (09 with the lakers and cavs) cavs went 8-0 the first two series and bytched up the next round

If Love is outside guarding perimeter guys I think LeBron makes it a point to rebound, he lead that series in RPG last year with 13.3 per game.


Tristan was a major issue for the Warriors in that series, he's hard to expose because of how active he is on the offensive glass, Love & Frye are the obvious ones to go at though, but with Love you still have to respect him on the offensive glass. They killed the Pistons on the boards, and the Pistons were a top 5 rebounding team. Last year the Cavs didn't have the offense to take advantage of their second chances, this year that could be different, that's is what they are doing to the EC teams right now. They are shooting a ton of threes with the realization that nobody can keep them off the glass.

It would be a good series and I think people dismissing the Cavs would be in for a surprise.

You're overestimating the Warriors just like an average internet thot.

The Warriors ain't what you think they are. Love is not trash on man to man D. But I'm wasting my time talking to you cause you acting like a thot who's emotions getting in the way of making informed posts.
