2016 NBA Finals — Warriors vs Cavaliers

why are you guys surprised about the suspension, lol
a longer series benefits the NBA's pocketbook and like you guys basically said, Draymond ain't Lebron-invincible
j0rdan otm about Lebron probably doing this as a league representative more than a strategem

lebron is v thoughtful

just looking out for the league

what a bro

Not any old bro, but LE BRO.

LEEE, BRO

cant think of a player whos so throughly destroyed their reputation over such a short span

its nuts

hes been doing this stuff all season but no one noticed it until the extra scrutiny of the offs

40% of greens unbelievable D is actually nut grabbing

lol has his rep really been hurt by this?

uh yeah

you mean like among moms?

nut hunting is generally frowned upon

Choosy Moms Choose Draymo's Nut Butter

the trick is dray has an edge in that he also appears in humorous commercials involving the meticulous spreading of peanut butter

if chris paul's state farm commercials were funny ppl might not care about the emotions and the nut punches

i would genuinely feel bummed if gsw clinches this tonight w/o draymond there

rpm = regularly punches manparts

well he's gonna be on the bench right? i think he's gonna be the most intense cheerleader you ever seen.
he should come dressed in full game gear but as lebron. and shave his head down to LBJ's _actual_ hairline

well he's gonna be on the bench right? i think he's gonna be the most intense cheerleader you ever seen.

not sure tbh, heard on espn radio this morning that he's not allowed in the stadium?

if the warriors clinch tonight who's gonna be named finals MVP? thought it might be dray but

Under league rules, Green cannot be in the building Monday night when the Warriors, who lead the best-of-seven series 3-1, attempt to clinch their second NBA title. If a player attends the game in such a case, he faces a fine. Green will be docked a game check for the suspension, which would cost him about $140,000.

xp dray prob most obvious choice, the rest weren't consistent enough

curry & klay had a few off games
livingston was great game 1 but played less of a role other games
iggy great but not has obviously dominant as last year
barnes? prob not

wonder of klay's trash talk is gonna push lebron to have a monster game tonight

though this whole series i think we've all been waiting for lebron to have a monster game and it hasn't happened

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/sources--draymond-green-pushing-to-attend-game-5-232446413.html

Green is strongly pushing to attend Game 5 of the Finals and watch the game inside Oracle Arena despite the suspension barring him from entering the arena, sources told The Vertical. He would likely face a substantial fine from the league if he were to attend the game. Green wants to find a route into the arena, and his reps are discussing the logistics of attending with the league and the players’ union.

could someone explain this to me

Even more, the predicament has elevated the onus on Kerr to place a rotation player on the inactive list. League rules dictate that Green must remain active, and as of Sunday afternoon, two prominent names emerged as possibilities to be inactive along with Kevon Looney: Ian Clark or Leandro Barbosa, sources said.

i think it's gotta be iggy again at this point. unless curry goes supernova tonight

one more good game from curry and he's got it. i think everyone forgets that curry played well in game two but in limited minutes.

yea im guessing curry will be in full force tonight

i could see this game turning into the lebron show if he shifts into beast mode. He must be recognizing this series, his third in a row of being stomped by stronger teams in the west, is going to shape his legacy. there's never been a better and more reasonable time for him to start driving hard to the basket 2 times outta 3 and make it pay off at the free throw line. But if he doesn't come out aggressive and keep pouring it on all game, this is gonna be so much schadenfreude for dubs for dray and for me.

i think the legacy thing is overstated tbh, i hear this all the time but in 10 or 20 years i don't think it will matter that much

He's been trying xp

i think in cleveland, if he doesn't win a championship in the course of his career, it will matter a great deal

Zach Lowes column I think from yesterday is all about how the dubs defense and how it's designed to not let Lebron get a head of steam more or less

xp oh definitely, if he brought a championship to the city it would be enormous, but if he doesn't 1) it will just be another chapter added to cleveland's failed sports history and 2) lebron will still go down as a top 5 or 10 GOAT

that may or may not be and i'm inclined to lean your way on this but one look at lebron on the bench in these final losses says a lot about what he thinks.

spottie, you can totally see that in game but i wonder whether iguodala can do it alone? Clay is trying valiantly but he's not gonna be half as effective on the double near the hoop as dray has been.

anyone who doesnt think brons top 5 doesnt know shit abt basketball

def top 5 but idk i just never got much enjoyment watching him play maybe that's part of it

ya his game def has a low charisma to quality ratio

that's insane

its actually extremely sane

lebron has some of the best court vision and passing of all time not enjoying his play is a moral failure
