Cavs are going to slow the game down and score 100-120 points still?

Well damn
So you say that even though the game is slowed down, you have Bron/Kyrie BOTH averaging 30+ AND the Cavs coming up with another 50 somewhere?
I'd really like to see where you get that extra 50 in a slowed-down game when you already have Bron/Kyrie taking 50-60 shots themselves.
Let's say Lebron gets 35 on 25 shots, Kyrie gets 30 on 25 shots, Love gets 15 on 12 shots, JR gets 10 on 10 shots, and everyone else combines for the other 25 on 25 shots...that's already 97 shots to get to the 115 kind of score you're talking about.
You think the Warriors are going to get to take damn near 100 shots without scoring 115 points against the porous-ass defense of the Cavs?
yea, i do....think the cavs will try to keep the score between 100-110, which is a 'slower' pace....so around 60-60+ from bron/kyrie, and another 50 from the rest of the team...which shouldnt be hard....for the most part, they've played like that this whole playoffs, and are getting to that total...
where did i say bron/kyrie would take 50-60 shots?....i'm talking about points, which is what i thought you were talking about...i think they will avg 60+ pts...
i like how in your example you have them shooting horribly to try to make a point lol...going off what they've been doing so far, bron/kyrie will take around 40-45 shots a game and get to that 60+ points.....last night bron scored 34 on like 15 shots....kyrie scored his 27(i think) on like 15 shots...that's 30 shots (give/take like 3)...if they take 50-60 shots, that's a great thing for the warriors cause that means the rest of the team not producing....
yea, i do...the warriors have scored below their avg the last 2 finals against the cavs, think it will continue....also, the 'porous-ass defense of the cavs' is a myth...watching the games, besides the pacers game 3 1st half explosion and the game 3 against bos, the cavs have played decent to good def....the times they've given up more than 110+ were either in blowouts (they won) or the other team hitting last min shots....

So we back huh? 3rd times the charm huh? Been a long year. That shot Kyrie hit over my nikka Curry still hurts.He did that boy dirty. Haven't felt that low since Roy Hibbert packed Carmelo's shyt in Game 6.
All year I had to sit back and watch the media and NBA fans laugh and mock that man. All the 3-1 memes, the jokes, the hate.
After ya'll built him up like that. The same ones that tried to crown him were the same ones that tore him down.
That shyt ain't right man.
But it's ok though.He's back and better than ever. 12-0, 4 sweeps, 28 points a game, numbers all up from last season. He's on a mission to reclaim what was wrongfully stolen from him last season.
But this time he got help. Nah, he ain't going at it alone. On his path to redemption he picked up an ally along the way. Someone that also feels the pain he feels. That has that hunger as well.
You see he got KD now you fakkits.
KD gonna deal with Bron. Curry's gonna put that nikka Kyrie's head on a fukking platter this series.
Ain't no 3-1 leads being blown this time. Warriors in 6.

Yes. That's literally how their offense operates. They play at a snail pace and control the tempo of the game for BOTH squads. The reason they routinely score 100+ is because they take a lot of 3s and are deadly efficient. Bron went up 2-1 in 2015 and won in 2016 because when Cle isn't turning the ball over he has complete control over the pace of the game and GS can't play the way they'd like to.
It's a clash of styles. Both offenses score a lot but they play at totally different paces. Cleveland usually wins the pace battle, they force teams to slow down.
100-100 is a "slightly" slower pace for the Cavs if they make their shots at the typical rate.
So by what sorcery are they only going to slow down themselves a little, but manage to slow down the Warriors a lot? Warriors have been averaging damn near 120ppg this postseason even with the starters sitting a lot of fourth quarters, and the Cavs have a BAD defense on top of that.
So far this postseason Lebron and Kyrie have been averaging 57ppg on 40 shots/game. And that's facing defenses like Indiana and Boston and Toronto without Lowry.
Last year Bron and Kyrie both went off in the Finals, and they still only averaged 58ppg on 46 shots/game. And no one said they were "shooting horribly".
You obviously don't have a clue how many shots it usually takes to score that many points.
If you have Bron/Kyrie scoring 10 points MORE than their average against better defenders than they been facing, then yeah, they're going to need at least 10 shots more to do it.
You can't use their best game of the entire year against the fukking Boston Celtics matador defense and then pretend that's what they're going to do four times against Draymond-Durant-Iggy-Klay-Curry.
They've played the Pacers, the Raptors without Lowry for most the series, and the Celtics without IT most the series, and you're bragging that they "only" gave up 110+ three times so far? (and none of them been blowouts - don't know why you made up that shyt)
They're about to go up against a team whose THIRD option on offense is better than the best player on the court for most of those games.
Love, Frye, Jefferson, Korver, Deron, Kyrie (who is hurting a bit).
That's 60% of their rotation that is going to have trouble on defense. You really think that TT/Lebron/JR/Shump are so good they can make up for it?

8 million coli dollars on cavs so far.
Up to 20 million I'm hoping for Warriors to go up 2-0 so I can bet big rest of series that shyt after Warriors went up 3-1 was
as far as real breadBut you're also talking about operating against one of the better defensive teams against the 3 this year. I just don't see that happening.
