    I'm with you 100% VDusen. Obviously I'd want to see LeBron get a ring in Cleveland, but I'm expecting GS to close it out at home and wouldn't at all mind seeing this type of once in a lifetime history being made.

    Been rooting for this little Curry guy since he was carrying a university on his back at Davidson. Never really imagined he would become what he is today. Media/interwebs have ruined most of the enjoyment for me, but I guess that's my own fault for paying attention to all that stuff.

      Mad respect for LeBron, whether he wins Game 7 or not. Especially after the entire world came down on him after going down 3-1. Don't want to hear about him being soft or non-clutch after this. Never was true anyways.

        Man, props to LeBron and the other Cavalier players for digging out of a 1-3 hole. Game 7 on Sunday will be incredible and maybe the career defining moment in a lot players' careers.

        Don't want to jinx either team so I'll stay neutral for now.

          LeBron looks like some kind of prehistoric fish they dug out of the bottom of the ocean making this face.

            I was watching that live and honestly thinking about who was gonna throw it up in here lol.

            Dude's a beast and has sustained his level of play during these fluke wins.



            Just playing TMagic, your insight is legit & I'm just having fun busting chops.

              Remember when lots of people were like "LeBron only scored 41 cause Draymond was out"?

                Pretty sure you said GS was gonna close it out tonight.

                  Hopefully this ends the discussion of who the best player in the league is right now, at least for another season.

                    Totally agree with this one.Lebron has been quite amazing in these finals.I hope he can keep it up in game 7.

                      I'm pretty sure my future self said the same thing the other day.

                      I was just watching the last game seven in the finals the other day. Wow what a series that was. Spurs vs Heat. If we get anything like that. I'd be pretty happy.

                        Game 7 is a delight for basketball fans.

                        If the league is truly rigged (it's not), they'll do everything in their power to keep the game close.

                        But here's the reality: LeBron is playing like the player all of us wanted him to play like. He's aggressive, he's bruising his way into the basket, and he's hustling on defense.

                        Golden State has resorted to using the three ball to bring them back into games. I can't remember who said it here but, Golden State used dribble penetration to create good three point looks during the season and most of the playoffs. Because of the Cavs D, GS has not done that and instead is hoping to hit threes. It also appears that open looks are getting rushed because the team isn't seeing the looks they usually get and their constantly feeling the pressure of hitting a shot to come back in the game.

                        It's good stuff. I always said I can't see this Golden State Warriors team being cold for four games in two weeks. I think they start hitting those shots in Game 7 at home.

And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                          I'm proposing that on OS, Barnes auto corrects to Bricks when calling Harrison by his name.

                          That's his new name and I'm sticking to it....Harrison Bricks. He's the new Travis OutLOL

                            Man, Curry was PISSED. I think he'll be ultra aggressive in Game 7.

                              He should be pissed at himself for taking that 40 footer and killing his team's momentum.

                                Either way, LeBron James has been incredible, and Stephen Curry & Klay Thompson have had their moments as well, but isn't this series such a great testament to how much of a role an entire team plays when it comes to winning a ring? As in, if James pulls this off, it'll always be remembered as "his" championship, but we darn well better never forgot what a dude like Tristan Thompson brought to the table, or Kyrle's nastiness.
                                That's kind of how it goes unfortunately...a lot of those little things the 'others' do go under the radar...

                                JR Smiths off ball defense will probably go unheralded...he's been fantastic this series defensively...who would have thought we'd say that about him in 2016?

                                same with Barbosas shot making ability thus series....dude is playing with a crazy amount for confidence on offense..been a great spark
