Golden State is performing 3.5 points per game worse than the first two games of last year's Finals. 41 points better this year, 48 last year. Margin of victory over replacement WAR pitches for bitches says that Durant is the problem.

Stay tuned

    The narrative at the end of this series will be how LeBron ran out of gas because of overuse.

    Last year was a perfect storm miracle. Curry is healthy, Draymond won't miss a game, and Kevin Durant.

    It was courageous to stick with the Cavs last year, you were right, but this shit is over.

    Seeing as how we are at the same point as last year with the difference being a new 3-1 blow the series choker added to Golden State, we should let it play out.

    The talk today about how the next 5 championships are decided is as amusing as it is stupid

    I wish mainstream media would be subject to the Hardcore husky thread bump epidemic.

    I went back, and it appears I had Curry's member residing in my mouth from November 2015-June 2016

    Looked like a fool after the comeback. But then performances like last night make my jaw start to quiver.

    The Warriors are impressive. No doubt. You're right, my issue is with the media.

    They could win the next 5. But how about a back to back first?

    There won't be any media narrative other than the Warriors are stacked and a much better team with KD (hot take).

    Sports media loves overreaction Monday more than anything.

    Lebron is the worst finals player ever.

    Golden State going for their 4th dynasty.

    Mike Brown is a good coach now.

    Why metrics are misleading and need to be referenced to confirm what you are seeing ...

    The Cavs don't have a lot of answers ... forget the stats ... it is what it is
