The hero ball conversation is ridiculous. Great players are always going to make or attempt to make great plays at the end of games. I mean simultaneously in this thread we are arguing about Cleveland playing hero ball, and also skewering LeBron for passing to the open man on a key possession.
Are we just talking about isolation plays?
Cleveland does lead the league in isolation plays (both in the regular season and playoffs), which is an uptick from last year. That is understandable when you have Lebron James, Kyrie Irving, and poor depth.

PP saying he's at a funeral and Jalen Rose brought a broom into the booth. If I were a GSW fan I'd be livid right now.
The internet pretty much does. Steph Curry has always had a douchey side for anyone who has followed him. The baby faced thing has just obscured it.
Yeah, it's hard to come up with any other explanation. It's only weird because of the game situation when he did it. It was far from over. Would've looked pretty foolish if they had lost.
Cleveland basically says "fuck the talking heads and slowing it down, we're just going to run with them..." If they shoot like this, they can run with Golden State, but will it continue?
Tristan Thompson making plays. Have not agreed with Lue's decision to bench him in the second half of every game so far.
OMFG, make your goddamned free throws, or you're going to figure out a nice new way to blow a game in this series.
Cleveland should be up 16 right now. They are going to let GS squeak back into this one.
Feels like Cleveland should be up 20. They're squandering this great play, largely done without Lebron's scoring.
It's out of control this game. Guys are acting like they got kicked in the nuts all over the floor.
That was funny. Not specifically a Shumpert's flopping. But Breen and JVG arguing that Curry fouled him.
Jesus Christ Draymond should be tossed and the Warriors playing a man down the rest of the game.
I'm not saying that last one on the jump ball wasn't a foul, but more players should think about sporting a highball flat top harcut, as it really helps emphasize the over-acting on fouls.
It's unbelievable they didn't call that a flagrant. It is also unbelievable that Green reacted like he was blowing Shump kisses.
He is a cheap shot son of a bitch.
They have the big (medium) lead they want, they need to gradually start metering their energy/slowing the game down.
