I am really disappointed that the Warriors weren't able to repeat as champs. I think NBA means "Not leBron Again?" I mean he's been in the last 5 or 6 finals. I feel like I've been watching the LeBron channel.
It's a shame that the Warriors opened up a 3-1 lead, for then the NBA referees go into even-up mode where they favor the team that's behind.

"Criticism against Curry in a historical sense has been the idea that he is too slight and not strong enough to deliver the way he does against the defenses of past eras. In today's NBA, hand-checking is no longer allowed and we've gone from a defensive wrestling match to more of a chess match, but the Cavs seem to be employing as many "old school tactics" as are allowed by a mostly ambiguous rule book.
The Cavs are clutching Curry whenever they can. They're holding him. They're daring him to push off and fight through the contact. Some may complain about these being fouls they're getting away with, but both sides are bending the rules of physicality in different ways. And as long as it's not being called, the Cavs would be stupid to refrain from defending him in this way. They're not allowed to hand-check, but they're allowed to bump him, body him and crowd his personal space as much as possible, which they've been doing for most of this series."
How do you negate the advantages of small ball? Grab and hold 'em to slow them down.
Sometimes I feel like I'm watching the movie "One on One" from 1977.
and then the TV executives want there to be a game 7, I mean they've paid billions of dollars to televise these games.

Milk milk milk, milk milk milk, milk that series, milk that series
We want game 7, we want game 7, extend that series, extend that series
