Oh Look.... Cavs win. AS I EXPECTED.

Watch the tape on GS.


Great win for the Cavs and I'm happy for Lebron, but you have to admit that both teams played solid if not great defense.

Golden State's defense in the paint was horrible, and they gave up a lot of fast breaks in the 1st half. Their defense was improved 2nd half.


Remember GS was without their best rim protector and Cleveland only scored 42 at the half. It doesn't matter where those points are coming from, holding a team to 42 in the half is good defense. Sure, I agree that GS didn't play great defense this game, but their defense was solid. Also, remember GS likes to play small lineups without centers and for most of the game they did not have a true big man on the court so they allow more points in the paint.

Yes, that was a monster block. Very high.

Irving's 3 under a minute was a huge bucket too.

Along with that, GS didn't crash the boards and it seemed like every time there was a 50-50 ball, the Cavs jumped on it. Ezeli was on the floor for some periods, but he didn't make things easier on offense by missing shots from close range. He and Varejao both did poorly, considering the fact that Love pulled down 14 rebounds.
