[Uriel]

Come on, Kevin. You know you want to come to San Antonio. Can you imagine a Big 3 with you, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Kawhi Leonard?

[hitmanyr2k]

He doess at times ...he is not the only one though

If the score is REALLY close late in the game or OKC actually somehow has the lead he better not do it because I guarantee it'll get called :lol

[noles1983]

GS vs Cle matchup has to have the most number of asshole players between them

[sasaint]

Well, you won't see Westbrook giving it up for the rest of the night after that airball by Roberson :lol

Roberson has been poor offensively this game. I think the lack of faith that Westbrook and Durant showed in him and the other role players in game six sucked out the confidence they had built up through the first 5 (especially first 4) games.

[sasaint]

GS vs Cle matchup has to have the most number of asshole players between them

I prolly won't even watch that series. I can't stand to see either team win a championship.

[baseline bum]

Well, you won't see Westbrook giving it up for the rest of the night after that airball by Roberson :lol

:lmao Good call

[baseline bum]

And that's the season

[baseline bum]

GSW with the repeat

[spursreport]

Curry gonna skullfuck LeBron next round.

:lmao at you thinking the Warriors will keep doing this for another 5 years when they will be declining dramatically in that timespan.

[Spurs9]

Unreal collapse

[baseline bum]

Durb:lolta

[Spurs9]

How does curry fet so many layups, why not knock him down at least once tbh

[noles1983]

I'm out, 3 point shitfest. glad i don't root for this faggoty team i couldn't watch that bullshit all year

[DD]

GS vs Cle matchup has to have the most number of asshole players between them

At least you'll only have to endure 5 games of it

[Vokun]

GSW is one hell of a team. Championship DNA tbh.

[tbdog]

Where is all that playing at 78% talk now?

[hitmanyr2k]

How does curry fet so many layups, why not knock him down at least once tbh

Any hard foul on Curry will look worse than what it is lol. It'll be flagrant, two shots and the ball back.

[140]

Eliancito :worthy: pushing durbetas shit in :lol

[davethedope]

Nah that's the line on Westbrook. It's actually surreal to see Curry not chuck a 3

[tholdren]

Come on, Kevin. You know you want to come to San Antonio. Can you imagine a Big 3 with you, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Kawhi Leonard?
No one to score or dribble during crunch time.

Great fucking idea

[Spurs9]

Any hard foul on Curry will look worse than what it is lol. It'll be flagrant, two shots and the ball back.

Thats true

[DD]

GSW with the repeat

In 5...I can't see Kevin Love serving any purpose in such a series.

[Keepin' it real]

Waiting for the hard frustration foul by OKC ...

[AlexJones]

I'm just gonna read pages 10 through 60 of this shit. gonna have one big extended laugh

[mclinejr]

I hate both of these teams so much.

[noles1983]

GSW is one hell of a team. Championship DNA tbh.

they beat one good team in the playoffs in 2 years. if they beat the cavs i will change my tune. till then fuck them

[baseline bum]

:lmao at you thinking the Warriors will keep doing this for another 5 years when they will be declining dramatically in that timespan.

Oh yeah, Curry declining fast at age 28 and Thompson and Raymond at 26.

[spurs10]

GSW with the repeat Repeat of WCF....they had to win 3 in row not to get eliminated. OKC choked this...don't think LeBron will lay down this easily.

[313]

Fucking lol @ Westbrook laughing at Curry's defense. Arrogant, overrated clown tbh

Thank God OKC is who we thought they were though, I don't think I would've been able to stomach watching Durant and Co. Hoisting the LOB.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Lol Cavs fans. About to be 0-3 in the Finals, more suicide and jersey burning incoming when Lebron leaves after they get swept.

[RD2191]

they beat one good team in the playoffs in 2 years. if they beat the cavs i will change my tune. till then fuck them

Tbfh. First 2 rounds were pretty much handicap matchups.

[~O~]

Well....truly, no one can't say shit about Golden State anymore. That's game. No tmac shit or ray allen shit here. There's no going back. The finals are coming and the right team is there.

[noles1983]

Roberson scared :lmao

[Clipper Nation]

Come on, Kevin. You know you want to come to San Antonio. Can you imagine a Big 3 with you, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Kawhi Leonard?

Durant could sign with the Monstars and still not win a ring. If he was on the Dream Team, he'd have single-handedly choked away the gold medal game to Croatia.

[hitmanyr2k]

Roberson with the wide open ball....fuck that shit..NEXT!! His confidence is gone.

[TheCultOfPersonality]

Good call.

[AlexJones]

No doubt in the winner of this, but some of us folks are nervously looking at the scoreboard :lol

[spursreport]

Oh yeah, Curry declining fast at age 28 and Thompson and Raymond at 26.

Curry is nearing 30 dumbfuck and will have injury issues as he hits that age. Their role players are aging and due deals soon. Your stupid ass also said the same exact shit about the Miami Heat so stfu.

[RD2191]

Oh shit :lol GSW suddenly playing like OKC.

[noles1983]

not to mention curry will want to get paid

[Vokun]

Where was this all game KD? Too little too late

[soxxx]

Man if the Warriors choke this I think it would take the cake of all cakes.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Buttholes tightening in Oracle

[Killakobe81]

Dubs relaxed ...that first 3 he hit out of the timeout got him going bad communication on the switch means now gstate needs to score ...

[hitmanyr2k]

Where was this all game KD? Too little too late

There's an eternity left in this game. Not too late for GSW to suddenly bitch up.

[tholdren]

Roberson with the wide open ball....fuck that shit..NEXT!! His confidence is gone.
not a good shooter and air-balled his last one, what do you expect?

[davethedope]

it's not over, just a couple more Draymond brainfarts and it's tied up

[Keepin' it real]

Comeback?

[Clipper Nation]

:lol Durbeta with the fake-ass garbage time statpadding

Westbrook cost OKC the game tbh...

[baseline bum]

Curry is nearing 30 dumbfuck and will have injury issues as he hits that age. Their role players are aging and due deals soon. Your stupid ass also said the same exact shit about the Miami Heat so stfu.

You're really bitter about the Thunder losing this series. Why were you so butthurt about me not calling the series over at 3-1?

[sasaint]

Oh yeah, Curry declining fast at age 28 and Thompson and Raymond at 26.

Yep, only issues that GSW might have are cap-related. However, Curry is signed for like 4 more years on a contract that is not much more than what the Spurs will pay Parker for 2 more years. :wow

[noles1983]

if there is a god, let GS choke this away

[313]

Westbrook ill advised shot coming up

[Spurs 4 The Win]

not a good shooter and air-balled his last one, what do you expect?

Exactly, they ended up getting 2 points cuz he passed it, otherwise he wouldve airmailed it again and the game wouldve been over

[Killakobe81]

Westbrook gambled AGAIN and was fortunate Curry threw another bad pass.

No, Curry is signed for like 4 more years for very cheap, IIRC.

Did Steph age 10 years overnight?

[tholdren]

how many times can curry and thompson push off while dribbling? every jump shot

So relieved we didn't have to watch GS do this shit on the Spurs.

[Killakobe81]

Did okc just quit after the last Durant miss?
They just gonneblet Curry film a how to dribble instructional video ?
Where was the great defense they showed earlier this series?

[dg7md]

Least we have a shot at Durant. He'll do better in our system.

[Captivus]

DAMN!!

[hitmanyr2k]

I think the Ibaka foul was the last straw. Durant will have a new team next year lol.

KD should have played like that all game. It was simply too late

[Keepin' it real]

Can't believe no hard fouls

[noles1983]

cant believe i have to root for lebron. hated these 2 teams last year, now have to deal with it again, ugh.

You dumbfuck acting like the Warriors will be around for 10+ years or some shit. :lol Your dumbass also said the same about the Kobe/Shaq Lakers and the Lebron Heat. Go ahead and make another retarded call on this being a long ass era for the NBA.

He'll be playing in Beale Street blue next season.

[sasaint]

This spursreport faggot acting like Curry is 34 and Thompson 36 or some shit. :lol

GSW has to be a little concerned about Curry's durability, but he has bounced back BIG TIME from that MCL strain. Thompson is only getting better. Draymond (as much as I hate him) is outstanding. Their role players will want to stay on this gravy train.

[noles1983]

does any other team shoot 40 3's a game or just these faggot warriors?

[Killakobe81]

No, Curry is signed for like 4 more years for very cheap, IIRC.

He is extension eligible in a couple years ...iirc

[hitmanyr2k]

Yeah........no

KD should have played like that all game. It was simply too late

It wasn't too late. Ibaka's dumb foul late in the shot clock was the dagger.

[StrengthAndHonor]

he really is a piece of shit
Yeah he is, haha but if you can't stop him, then he has the license to act like a douchebag as far as these players are concerned...

[Spurs 4 The Win]

cant believe i have to root for lebron. hated these 2 teams last year, now have to deal with it again, ugh.

At this point, rooting for Lebron is just setting yourself up for more disappointment, its gonna be the Warriors in 4 or 5. They were a no contest matchup in the regular season, winning by like 30 each time. Just accept it and hope someone can step up to the plate next year, and with Durant leaving, that means its gonna be up to the Spurs to stop them.

[baseline bum]

I think the Ibaka foul was the last straw. Durant will have a new team next year lol.

I doubt it. He's not going to coat-tail the Warriors. He's not going to the Spurs after they bitched out last round. Where is he going? Boston?

[Vokun]

Seriously though, how TF do you contain Steph and Klay for a FULL 7 games? It's just not possible. These guys are going to 3peat next year once they beat CLE 4-1

[DarrinS]

God I hTe GS. Go Cavs

[~O~]

Did okc just quit after the last Durant miss?
They just gonneblet Curry film a how to dribble instructional video ?

Dude...it was all the hubris of Golden State. They thought they could cakewalk through OKC. They deserved to get their ass beat to humble themselves back to this game 7 win. They need all those losses to realize who they were and how they got to where they were.

[baseline bum]

You dumbfuck acting like the Warriors will be around for 10+ years or some shit. :lol Your dumbass also said the same about the Kobe/Shaq Lakers and the Lebron Heat. Go ahead and make another retarded call on this being a long ass era for the NBA.

My bad. I thought it was longer - still two more years on a sweet bargain contract.

[Spurs 4 The Win]

Yeah he is, haha but if you can't stop him, then he has the license to act like a douchebag as far as these players are concerned...

Yeah, at this point, as much as I hate gaymond and Curry, you gotta beat them to shut them up and I dont see who is going to do it in the near future. Spurs look like the only hope for next year. As long as the East is this weak, Cleveland aint gonna be able to beat them when it counts. East is just tribute to the West champs tbh.

[davethedope]

I doubt it. He's not going to coat-tail the Warriors. He's not going to the Spurs after they bitched out last round. Where is he going? Boston?

He has to come out east, it's the only way to balance out the league

[baseline bum]

Yeah he is, haha but if you can't stop him, then he has the license to act like a douchebag as far as these players are concerned...

I like Curry, he can be an arrogant fuck as long as he's destroying other teams. Green is the one I hate, those kicks are so chickenshit and then pulling Adams down by his arm? Fuck him.

[Killakobe81]

Green actually being humble?!
That dude Adams earned Green's rezpect ..
Ha he just said that in interview as I typed this

[StrengthAndHonor]

Minus Draymond Green, the Warriors are such a likable team.

Warriors in 7. Gotta give the Tribe some credit, they've manipulated the playoffs for a win-win-win situation, at least to them. Okc, Dubs and Cavs will be good stories regardless of who wins. I expect the officiating to be more hands off here on out. Next couple rounds should be classics imo.

[Thread]

He's annoying AF and the Warriors are most likely to repeat this year so expect more douchebaggery from Green through next season...

I think unfortunately now they will 3 peat but after 2017 they won't be winning anymore.

wow i totally disagree. mouthpiece is a douchbag, so is klay.

That explains why State was less,than stellar ...
But before Curry hot thatvlast 3 the game was not over but chance at victory was slim ...its the WCF
You dont just watch him dribble all over them drill a 3?!
Them niccas quit ...

[Killakobe81]

Say what you will about Draymond ...
But he gave Adams respect cuz hw knows Adams was busting his ass ...

[Vokun]

Godamn I wish Klay was a Spur.

[davethedope]

Klay is almost too humble

[Thread]

Godamn I wish Klay was a Spur.

Pop would break his spirit.

wow i totally disagree. mouthpiece is a douchbag, so is klay.
Actually you're right, Curry is a little POS too. and Kerr quite honestly has a punchable face for a coach. Klay doesnt bother me though.

[RD2191]

Lil B u da real MVP

[~O~]

Green actually being humble?!
That dude Adams earned Green's rezpect ..
Ha he just said that in interview as I typed this

Green gets more disrespect because its racially motivated. He's probably the darkest skinned player in the league now in the league now how very unpopular. He's obnoxiously loud mouth and over excessively boisterous when he's playing basketball. Most of all, he's on the best team in league history. His twitter mentions is blown up with hatred. Its youtube cancerous. It provokes inner sociopaths in various fans or pure racist hatred for Green. This is how most thugs act and I agree, Green needs to tone it down some but why should he? He's being himself and shouldn't have to change to appease people to be honest.

[hitmanyr2k]

I doubt it. He's not going to coat-tail the Warriors. He's not going to the Spurs after they bitched out last round. Where is he going? Boston?

Why wouldn't he go to the Spurs? At least he actually beat those guys lol. Going to the team you beat isn't so bad. Going to the team that beat you is the worst!!

[Kawhitstorm]

Whoever won the PG battle won each game:

Curry looked like his old self for the final 5 quarters of the series while WestBrick shot 36% & committed 15 turnover during the last 3 games of the series.

It also helped Draymond wasn't playing like a bum & Klay was hitting every 3 pointer during the latter part of the series.

Champions can be cocky. Plus, they've never eliminated us in a playoff series, nor have any of their players called Kawhi a role player. Imagine how cocky Russ and co would be if they won a chip or had a 73 win season..sheesh. GS is about par the course for championship teams.

He would also neuter Draymond.

They won the first 3 quarters of Game 6 as well, and were then outscored 33-18 in the 4th on their home floor in a closeout game.

At this point, rooting for Lebron is just setting yourself up for more disappointment, its gonna be the Warriors in 4 or 5. They were a no contest matchup in the regular season, winning by like 30 each time.

Actually, the first meeting of the season was on Christmas & the Cavs only lost by 6 on the road. Kyrie had made his season debut not too long before that game so he still didn't have his legs under him.

uNtk1jgMY0k

The second meeting on January was an absolute ass whoopin' which led to the firing of Blatt:

Hoq2zOac8gA

In both meetings Blatt was the coach & Love was being under utilized. Mozgov was also still in the rotation (now Tristan is the starter) & Frye wasn't on the roster. Most importantly, Kyrie didn't get his groove back until February & is now playing at an elite level.

The series is most likely going to be like the first game of the series rather than the second meeting.:lol

[Spurs 4 The Win]

The series is most likely going to be like the first game of the series rather than the second meeting.:lol

So the warriors will be in control for 95% of the game with a comfortable lead and it will tighten late? Lol

Did you miss last year's finals when the Cavs were in every game until the start of the 4th quarter but LeBron ran out of gas which is how the first game played out. Now he has Kyrie to share the play-making duties & Kyrie actually played well in Gm 1 of last year's Finals before he got injured.

Yeah, the Warriors improved from last season but so didn't the Cavs.:lol

You think cavs are winning?

They have a chance to win the series just like the 2013 Spurs against PEAK LeBron & 66 win Heatles.

Kyrie is the perfect fit next to LeBron, he can do it w/ the ball in his hands or playing off the ball while LeBron plays point-forward. LeBron/Wade had issue in 2011 b/c neither of them was great off the ball. The Heat eventually surrounded LeBron w/ shooters to closeout games: Mike Miller, Ray Allen, Battier, Bosh, Chalmers, James Jones.

Now he has JR/Kyre/Love/Frye/Delly who are all knockdown shooters. Even Dick(:lol)Jefferson is a better fit next to Bron than Wade when he's playing point-forward.

Yeah but they play in the east, they wouldn't have beaten the spurs. They are getting dropped in 5. If they can steal 1 of the first 2 then it probably goes 7

Outside of Frye and maybe Kyrie a bunch of streaky mofos on cavs when they are hot, cavs roll but i dont trust 'em

True. but how many of those guys are going to be taking a wealth of 3's?
And Barnes has hit some big ones even with limited touches the past few years ...
As has Iggy who is not even a as good a shooter as JR like you said ...

So we gonna roll with the guys that hit big shots in close games or the guys that only seem to hit them in blow-out games?

JR smith can be a flame-thrower and Kyrie can get hot too ... I dont trust the rest.
So who will hit more 3's?
Kyrie and JR or the splash brothers?
Also which backcourt will give up more on the other end?

I think Cavs can puch it to 7 if they steak game 1 or 2 ...
I just dont see how they win this UNLESS ...

LeBron is able to go in to god mode while also keeping those two guys plus Love all involved
AND also make up for the shitty defense of Love, Kyrie, Smith and Frye ...
That is asking a whole lot.

if anyone can do it ..it's james. So no excuses let's see how he responds.

[~O~]

Don't even worry about it. They won't win. Klay Thompson set that record with 75% of his threes contested. The Cavaliers have no where near the length of the Thunder. Their best scorer shoots threes at 32%. All they have to do is let LeBron wear himself out and funnel him just like teams have been doing for the past years. Prevent offensive rebounds of course and don't turnover the ball. Most of all, hold the lead and do not give up the corner three. Its the recipe of LeBron James winning. Teams bailing him out.

Being up 3-1 without HCA isn't the most comfortable position in the world. You really have two games to win the series, not three. If you let the series get to that Game 7 on the road you're pretty much screwed. Coming back from 3-1 down without HCA, like what the Rockets did against the Suns in 1995, is way more difficult.

absolutely ... but come on Tait, almost all of the media and opposing fan-bases had
state buried at 3-1.
It wasnt Rockets level historic but impressive nontheless ...

I will say this Tiat, I dont think state could get away with spotting James a 3-1 or even a 3-2 lead.
Putting James that close to a title would be foolish. He could end state with a 35 10 and 10 masterpiece.

Warriors Thunder game 7 scores biggest NBA ratings in cable history

by Frank Pallotta (http://money.cnn.com/author/frank-pallotta/index.html) @frankpallotta (https://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=frankpallotta)May 31, 2016: 4:06 PM ET




Game 7 of the NBA's Western Conference Finals delivered in both action and viewership.

The Golden State Warriors 96-88 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder brought in an average viewership of 15.9 million for TNT on Monday night.

The highly anticipated win or go home match up between Steph Curry's Warriors and Kevin Durant's Thunder was cable's most watched NBA telecast of all time. It was also the the most watched program in the history of TNT.
The game peaked at 19.8 million viewers from 11:15 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. as the Warriors wrapped up the win.
Game 7 brought in big viewership in both the Bay Area and Oklahoma City where roughly 30% of the homes were watching the game.
TNT's NBA postgame show, "Inside the NBA," even saw big ratings bringing in an overnight rating of 4.8, the highest overnight rating for the show ever.
Overall, the game and the post game delivered the two top rated programs of the night across both cable and broadcast TV.

TNT, like CNN, is owned by Time Warner (TWX (http://money.cnn.com/quote/quote.html?symb=TWX&source=story_quote_link)).

Golden State's win now sets up what could be a blockbuster NBA Finals for ABC.
The Warriors will be taking on LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night. This pits the two biggest stars in the NBA (if not the entire sports world) in a rematch of last year's heavily watched Finals.
The six games of the 2015 NBA Finals averaged 19.9 million viewers for ABC (http://money.cnn.com/2015/06/17/media/nba-finals-ratings/?iid=EL). This was the most watched NBA Finals for the network since it started airing it in 2003.
It was also the most watched Finals since 1998 when Michael Jordan's Bulls defeated the Utah Jazz.
With attention surrounding James' attempt to end Cleveland's championship drought and the Warriors coming off a historic 73 win season, this year's number could easily top last year's.

still Spurs won the game they shutdown Klay/Curry in...we can control the pace better and we have better post-up/inside threats than the Cavs (Diaw/LMA)..it is looking grim for Cleveland unless they get hot because they have better shooters thAn SA..

No.

This is a real pisser for Media. They don't want either team to lose.

It'll be keen watching how Media conducts this.

Ezeli/Bogut/Iggy were out for that game & Softridge looked shook when he saw Bogut in the paint during the previous matchup.:lol Diaw was also the best player in that game & he looked like shyt against OKC.

It would have been 2010 WCSF status considering Tim/Manu being a shell of themselves against OKC & West having a train run on him during the regular season. They would have also taken out Danny & Iggy would have given Kawhi trouble in an ISO heavy halfcourt offense.

Cripples would have had a chance w/ a HEALTHY Blake/CP3/ReDick against a less than 100% Curry considering how well they played them in the regular season even without Blake. Swap WestBrick w/ CP3 & OKC would have come out victorious in WCF.

Warned you Iggy was more reliable than anyone on the cavs side ..outside of the guys I mentioned.

You all don't recall but when Ig came on board there for State I called him a "loser."

tee, hee.

Of course Iggy is more reliable than JR Smith.:lol

If you're talking about him making two 3s, he made two WIDE OPEN practice 3s while JR couldn't even get a shot off.

My nigga Iggy is the true leader and most important player of this GS team. His perimeter and post defense was just spectacular! He was blocking and stealing the shit out of everybody. He settled the offense down by knocking out that Big 3 pointer after getting hit in the nuts. Cavs are just over matched! It sucks for them that Oklahoma choked because lebron owns both pizza face and westbrick.

Yep. And that would have serviced Media to a T. They'd love to cut out Westbrook about now and just beat his black ass to a frazzle while at the same time feting James as king of the world.

Now Media just gets the one bite at the apple and it's not a huge bite because there is not second bite as they kick the shit out of the loser.

Yep, they wanted Westbrook. Now they get nobody.

Good. The rats.
