I don't want to see another behind the back pass from Curry ever again.

Surprisingly, Skip and Stephen A. had stupid things to say. Always a good idea to speak in absolutes with a little undeserved arrogance when making predictions. These dudes are paid millions to say things like this too man.

Stephen A really going out on a limb with that, and Skip is a starpower>talent type guy anyways. He thought Tebow would have a successful career just because lol.

Warriors also were really soft around the rim except a couple of plays.

You giving Assistant Coach Kerr a pass too?

Nah...his rotations were "mad hatter" going back to game 4. He gets no pass. Only playing Barbosa and Speights 4 minutes each and letting Ezeli back in the game in the 4th quarter was inexcusable.

He got outcoached at home by Tyrone Lue.

In the end though, it was the 12 for 38 performance from the Splash Bros that destroyed everything.

Lue and the Coaching staff decision to give minutes to Jefferson and sit Frye was huge.

They should have run more of the sets that got Barnes the wide open dunk. Cavs were so worried about the 3 that they could have run that play and scored easily.

Too busy jump passing to Varejao

Re: The Finals: Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Golden St. Warriors Part 2

Barnes wasn't stopping nobody though jeebs. At times he's brick a shot then come right down and foul someone... bad plays on both ends at the same time.

Cmon man, even Kevin McHale knew to sit James Harden when he was stinking it up and they beat the Clippers at Staples.

Why couldn't Kerr just trying SOMETHING?

Like he literally did less than Barbosa the entire series than Barbosa did in one quarter.

..the other thing is as soon as the 3 was unavailable they just choked. Like it's sad to see dudes they're giving MVP accolades to, play like Steve Francis out there.

...which leads me to what kind of plays did Kerr have as a backup?

If I cant hit a 3 then you try to hit one?

I don't recall ever seeing any misdirection, not even that elevator play that used to get them buckets when Mark Jackson was there.

What was the plan?

Dre I totally agree with everything you said.

The reason they couldn't run those plays was because the Cavs were switching everything. The Cavs were literally saying he is a free 2 pointer. Take it. Does anyone remember Curry getting wide open lane drive to the basket. He drove and missed a wide open layup. I forgot who put it back (I think it was Green) But it's those plays the Warriors were forced into. I blame Kerr here.

To be fair also though. Kyrie could be the goat right now if that shot doesn't go down because the Cavs had reverted back to Kyrie and LeBron coming down and dribbling the air out of the ball with guys standing around watching them work down the stretch in those last two minutes. Even on the game winner, Kyrie dribbled with guys standing around and hit a fade away three pointer. That was the same kind of nonsense he was doing in game 1 and it just didn't fall. Golden State's play style still holds up, just some times it ain't gonna work out for them in the end.

Steve Kerr effed up with his rotations.

I wouldn't have let Festus back in the game after he got that rebound straight up ripped away from him. And Varajao was good for absolutely nothing as well.

Speights came in and gave some solid energy. Should have stuck with him when they weren't playing small.

Has Golden State lost 3 straight at any point during these past two seasons before this?

Agree... But I think the different here is that they are rolling. When Cavs got that lead with Kyrie going off

He ripped one from Barnes too

Coincidence?

Mo Speights over there on the bench watching Mo Williams cherry pick a layup for a trophy.
