Nobody gave me any cred for characterizing the Warriors offense as "Outside Out". It fits doesn't it? They've made themselves easy to guard.

Except the warriors aren't even the most prolific 3pt shooting team in the league. They're 7th. Check it out.

I'm referring more to how they have approached this series.

Cavs are making their run too early... but then again it's not like the Warriors can string any points together, or for that matter even score at all.

Wait I am confused. Is Flip a genius? I think if we want a championship we need to trade for Lebron. You think Cleveland would take him for Wiggins?

Yeah, theres truth in that. To me it's a stubbornness to find new wrinkles to attack the Cavs weaknesses.

And having 1 guy use up most of his team's possessions is good basketball and how the game was meant to be played? Basketball is a team sport, not a 1 on 1 competition.


Not sure where in my post you read: "Man, I love how this Cavs team plays." I hate isolation basketball, but at least they have the best player in the world and the real MVP of the league.

The equation is never the same when LeBron James is calculated in it.

Dellavedova is doing his best impression of JJ Barea in the 2011 Final. Different style, but same type of impact.

They're finally making the right plays off the PnR with Steph getting basically doubled on the hard hedge. Take advantage of the 2 on 1 Cleveland is giving them for playing so far out on Steph.
