Ally to Lebron
Delly and 1
One of the GOAT
Lebron 3
Last night Cleveland won their first NBA finals home game
In 2011, Lebron scored 107 points in the entire NBA finals (6 games). He has scored 123 points through 3 games this series.
Lebron has scored the most points through 3 games of the NBA finals in NBA history.
LeBron has been his team's outright leader in Pts/Rebs/Asts in 35 career playoff games, including in Gm2. Next most all-time is 13 by Bird. ( Source)

The whole team, especially Lebron, has a want like I haven't seen in a while. They are hungry as frick and seem to be all in on the strategy of Lebron carrying like 80% off the offensive load.

I can't wait to watch them play again.

Yeah, but the Spurs did it in rather fantastic fashion. The Cavs remind me of your 2004 Pistons in terms of approach. Just banging bodies and fighting for every possession. Of course, the Pistons didn't have a LeBron-type player, but the Cavs just remind me of them.
I loved those Pistons, btw.
ETA: When I think of the Spurs last year, I think of just how amazing their passing was. Some of the best team basketball I've ever seen.

I'm fascinated by this series. I can't wait to see if the Warriors are able to figure things out and start scoring some points again and if the Cavs are able to keep this up for a few more games

Series is far from over.
If I was a cavs fan, I would be extremely worried about them being able to maintain the defensive intensity required to keep GSs shooters from getting on track. Especially Delly.
I still think GS is going to win. I think delly and others are logging too many minutes.

I don't see Lebron losing 3 out of the next 3/4 games.

Yea, it's still hard to be confident in picking the Cavs to win. They've played about as well as they could play given the circumstances and the warriors have flat out shite the bed in 10 of the 12 quarters. However, they have still made each game close at the end with a chance to win the game. The warriors got a total 11 points from 3 of their starters last night and still cut it to 1 late in the 4th
The Cavs def have the advantage being up 2-1, but I would still be extremely nervous

I just think there is a fine line between the Cavs keeping GS uncomfortable in their shooting.
Cavs are so thin. I think it is close to a toss up, but lean slightly toward GS. I think the Game 4 winner takes it.

Yeah, the Cavs are basically playing with 6 guys. Once LeBron leaves the floor GS starts making easy buckets.
And, it seems Steph knows he can't wait for the quick screens anymore. I hope he doesn't adjust.
All I can hope is that the Cavs win on Thursday and the Warriors allow their frustrations to get the best of them.

This is absurd.

That's definitely a part of it. Their inexperience is evident. Who else saw Curry's horrible body language last night? That's your leader? Like they said, you can't be MVP just when things are going well.
Their strategy of letting Lebron get his was one I thought to be the correct strategy. The problem is it interferes with how they want to play offensively. So maybe they have to take some risks to push the pace and start getting out in transition like they want to. Maybe that will help with morale if they're playing the way they want to.
The other problem with letting Lebron get his is that's only a stategy that works well when there isn't a significant mismatch in the first place. But no one has come close to stopping Lebron, so it's a problem. If his shot was actually falling at a good clip, these games wouldn't be close.
If they try to stick with their current strategy with Lebron draining the shot clock, that TOP skews heavily towards Cleveland. They don't have enough possessions for their great 3-point percentage to average out.
