Best game of the finals, I think. I know he's not popular on this board, but I'll take Draymond Green on my team any day...his grit is the perfect complement to the flash of Curry/Thompson.

I agree. Can't believe they don't run some triangle/corner action with Love at the elbow. It would allow for some movement by Irving and LeBron without the ball in their hands.

He's a phenomenal player, no doubt. Still annoying as hell. Love seeing him eat crow and lose, but not gonna happen in this series.

41 point turnaround tonight from 2 nights ago. Sure the Warriors made their threes, but I think the story tonight was all about defense. The Warriors brought consistent defensive intensity and effectiveness, and the Cavs didn't.

The league has to suspend Draymond. Not only did he try to kick LeBron on his way up from the floor, but he intentionally hit yet another player in the groin region. Oh, and then flailed his arm at him as they were both standing. Fuck that guy. There's a difference between being gritty and tough and being dirty/hazardous to other players on the floor. That's trash and it can't be ignored any longer by the league office.

Both Delly and Draymond have dirty reputations around the league, but I think they make their teams better. I don't like some of the things that Green has done (the Adams kick in particular), but I thought the refs handled the dustup between him and Lebron just fine tonight. I like LeBron, but I think he armbarred Green to the ground, and then slowly stepped over him (not on him) when it could have been very easy to go around him. Green then threw an arm at James but missed. I didn't have a big problem with either of their actions, and think the refs awarded the fouls probably more in response to the yelling at each other.

Personally I think Draymond has toned down some of his crap the last couple games. On the other side I wasn't a fan of the way Lebron carried himself at times in this game.

Guys, Draymond hit LeBron in the dick with his hand. That's not a basketball play. It's not even up for debate. The league gave him the benefit of the doubt on the Adams play. No more.

Also, when are officials going realize that Varejao's the biggest flopper in the league? Breathe on the guy and he flails his arms and falls to the floor. Unbelievably soft.

What should they do about it? Fines are obviously not gonna do it. I think if they decide to be serious there has to be some protocol like techs and flagrant fouls a where suspensions loom. I'm not even sure that helps though.
