Golden State has 96 points through 3 quarters and they are down by 19 points. That's just fucking ludicrous. If they hold Cleveland to 20 in the 4th, they need to score 40 to win.

Is Lue really that fucking stupid? You give Lebron rest coming out of the break? He just sat for five minutes between quarters. Let him play for a few minutes, maintain the lead, and then get him some rest. It's like giving him two breaks, instead of one extended break.

LOL at Lue making those decisions and not Lebron himself.

It's constantly felt like the Warriors were on the verge of making this a game but the Cavs have answered each and every time. Let's see if they can keep it up.

Haven't been able to get it to single digits yet. If they can string some stops together and make it a 3 possession game.... could be squeaky bum time for Cleveland. A feeling they know all too well, last season notwithstanding.

I was just watching Lebron on the bench the entire time, and sure enough, Lue did not even look at him when Bron got up and put himself back in the game. They aren't even trying to make it appear that Lue is coaching the team.

Kyrie Irving is absolutely playing the best he has ever played right now. The reason Klay Thompson is struggling is that he is playing maximum effort defense on Irving - the type of defense that slows most other guys down in the NBA because Klay is a great on-ball defender - and yet Irving cannot be stopped. The Warriors only hope is that LeBron and Irving get gassed toward the end of the game. But this is a deep hole even for the Warriors to dig out of tonight,
