Warriors open as 9 point favourites for Game 5

[dabestkeptsecret]

Only if the refs allow it
It will come down to jr showing up and thompson getting back to the way he was balling last year. Letting curry outrebound him was disgraceful

 

[360Waves]

Why not? This series should be 2-2 right now if we're being honest. They've shown they can hang.

If the Cavs role players continue to show up, I think they have an excellent chance.

When was the last time you saw the Cavs role players show up on the road?

 

[WMG the 2nd]

I don't think so
If they can keep being physical with steph and klay while also being able to have the freedom of keeping golden state timid on their defense (some of it was fouls but golden state stopped being aggressive which allowed for more three attempts) then maybe

I said warriors in six in the pre finals poll and then wanted to see the sweep for history sake but usually the team that wins the title wins it on the opponents floor. Guessing they buck tradition and finish it Monday

I really don't see cavs having another historic three point shooting night like that on the road nonetheless

 

[Primetime]

I said from jump the series will come down to the cavs supporting cast hitting theirs 3s, to help alleviate Kyrie and Bron.

It dont gotta be 24 3s bc they dont have to win by 20. But can't be the other extreme either. They hit timely ones in gm3's 2nd half, until the final minutes.

Big question is whether the role players will hit anything on the road. It's hard to see that happening but i also thought gsw would close it out last night, so we'll see

In the Boston series actually. Now that the Cavs gotten a victory off of Golden State, I think it will give them more confidence as they now see that the Warriors are beatable.

They know that if they show up, they have a great shot to win. The key is for them to actually be assertive and wanting to contribute in the best way possible.

I'm talking against teams that matter.


They've had 6 road games against Golden State in the last two years, and the role players ain't shown up in none of them.

Games 1 and 2 last year were blowout losses.

Games 1 and 2 this year were blowout losses.

Game 5 last year, role players didn't do shyt but it was okay because Lebron/Kyrie combined for 82.

Game 7 last year, role players didn't do shyt but it was okay because Steph/Klay couldn't hit a barn door and Warriors only scored 89.


The Cav role players simply suck on the road. It's gonna be a huge aberration if some of them step up big and are the difference-makers this time around.

IF they win game 5 (BIG IF) they gon win the series

a puncher's chance

JR was huge in game 7 last year ..he had 8 straight points at the start of the 3rd (2 threes) when the warrios were up by 8, and lookin to put the game away.

Stepping up is not havin a 20 point game..its making timely shots. Even bum ass shump had that 4-point play in game 7.

For the Cavs to win..i have said this many times before, they gotta get a SUBSTANTIAL lead in the first.

If not..they will lose.

While it is true that they've underperformed at Golden State during the last few years, I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt this time around. I think as long as the Cavs big three remain solid, the role players will feed off their energy and play good.

 

[Captain Crunch]

Cavs have a very slight chance, I think this goes 7 if Cavs win game 5.

 

[broller]

Honestly the warriors are fukking soft especially curry, what a whiny little bytch, fukking anonymous. I like those odds because I don't think this team can handle pressure too well.

They probably are a bit nervous now.

 

[thenatural]

They need to win period, doesn't matter how. If KD, Dray Day, and Klay get the lead up to 10+, then Curry will decide to show up and play

They were down seven on the road with three minutes left and won by seven
