He will also be the biggest reason the Cavs win the championship.wildcats20;1799523 wrote:Season offensive rating for GSW...115.
Last night...98
There's a few reasons they won 73 games, he might be the biggest.
GSW really needed to close it out in 5. Now they have let the Cavs right back into it.

Anybody think Love still had concussion symptoms and should not have been cleared?

No, he just didn't seem to be involved, or want to be involved for that matter. Hell the only good thing I saw in the game from him, was that he was physical when Klay and steph drove the paint.superman;1799582 wrote:Anybody think Love still had concussion symptoms and should not have been cleared?
3rd parties judge the concussions so he wouldn't have been cleared of he wasn't free of symptoms.

No. The protocol would've kept him out if anything lingering. Prolly just an MCL sprain/tearsuperman;1799582 wrote:Anybody think Love still had concussion symptoms and should not have been cleared?

Im tired of this crap about Love for Anthony. Anthony is a bigger defensive liability than Love....almost as bad as Harden. We need a concerted effort on defensive guys if we want to make a trade.

JR Smith was a liability at one time, too. Perhaps Melo changes when on the court with Lebron?slingshot4ever;1799621 wrote:Im tired of this crap about Love for Anthony.

Melo is another high usage iso scorer who needs the ball in his hands. I don't think he's a good fit with Kyrie and Lebron either.

Sager will be working the sidelines for Game 6. Such a great move by ESPN and TNT.

They may still have great games, though, but they will need someone else to step up. Whether it's JR, Jefferson, or even Love, it needs to happen to win Game 6.
Also, LeBron can't fall in love with shooting jumpers. Yes, he needs to take them when available, but his main goal still needs to be attacking the rim. If he starts settling for jump shots all night, things will not end well.
Exactly. If you think what happened in game 5 is going to repeat in game 6, better think again. They will need some other guys to be allowed to be involved, and then those guys will need to respond well. I have to believe JR and Love have some 3 balls left.

This is huge for the Cavs. Game 6 should be a formality at this point. Can the Cavs win again in Oakland?wildcats20;1799652 wrote:Bogut is done for 6-8 weeks.
Bogut isn't a star but he is a key cog in my opinion. This should open up the lanes for KI and LBJ to do work in.

Also, no chance I want Melo. He would be worse for this team than Love.
Also on my 'no' list is Harden(unless he wants to come off the bench).

He's their leader in blocks and he's the best at setting the illegal screens for his teammates.friendfromlowry;1799658 wrote:Yeah those missed 12 min/game he was averaging will be huge.
Bogut not being in allows the Cavs more unconstested shots and increases the amount of contested shots for the Warriors. 12/min is a game doesn't really matter. The Cavs now have a significant advantage on the boards and if the Warriors go small by not playing a true center like Bogut, the Cavs will punish them even further.
Game 6 should be a formality. I would be surprised if the Cavs won by less than 15.

Don't worry, just next man up in that department. It's laughable how many they get away with. He literally hugged Kyrie on one last gamelike_that;1799660 wrote:At least it eliminates their best big lineup and his illegal screens.

So do they just move Draymond to the 5 and bring in Iggy?

Might....though that may slightly weaken two spots on the floor. Might just use Draymond as they have and hope can keep them from the rim which he probably can do a bit.Benny The Jet;1799663 wrote:So do they just move Draymond to the 5 and bring in Iggy?
