[Pugz]

[cruzg24]

[cruzg24]

Lmao thats perfect.

 

[Pugz]

back to wade, he reportedly wants $20M a season from the heat. now thats crazy but still, $9M is too low. time to move on imo

 

[cruzg24]

Wade is injured like 25% of the time so he needs a pay reduction. I would pay him 12-14 million.

 

[elcheato]

I'm genuinely curious how the Warriors are gonna play the match ups. If they want Green on LeBron, they're gonna have to put Barnes on Tristan, and that would be a disaster for them. I don't think Green can stop Tristan on the boards either. Warriors might be forced to play big when the Cavs have Tristan and Mozgov in together, but coaches don't like to alter starting lineups, so the Cavs HAVE to get off to good starts with those two out there, because it's one of the very few problems the Cavs will cause.

Tristan in general needs to have a big series, as the Warriors are very meh at rebounding.

I'd be surprised if the Warriors played big too often.

Yeah you have your "if GS goes small how will they defend Thompson and Mozgov" questions but you also have to ask if GS goes small how will Thompson and Mozgov defend whoever GS puts on the floor?

 

[Hurricane Season]

People actually think the Warriors have a shot in this series?

Thompson won't have an issue. Mozgov would but I think it's easier to just hide him down low, and live with whoever he's on having space from 10 feet and up.

 

[elcheato]

This forum really hates the consummate underdog that is LeBron James. Can he and the Cavs defeat the overwhelming favorite?

I have money on them, so they'll lose

 

[CameronCrazy06]

LMAO

 

[BwareDWare94]

I actually wouldn't be surprised to see Green stick with Thompson instead of taking his time on James. Green is GSW's pitbull, and definitely strong enough to at least take away some of Tristian's usual rebounding opportunities.
 
I want to see LeBron versus Draymond, though.

 

[Pugz]

i think the warriors are winning and despite what the general consensus may be, it'll be better for the nba if they win too. this is the best possible series for ratings too. may set the record. if we didnt have such a long lay off, it really would have.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Yeah, this is the most interesting Finals in a long, long time. This long layoff may have prevented the league from adding a large portion of fans, but it's their own damn fault.

 

[elcheato]

I hope Green is on LeBron too
