Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

LBJ going one-on-one versus Iggy was out of necessity last year. There shouldn't be any reason for it this year. Cavs need more movement on the offensive end.

Iguodala hasn't really been able to stop him. He only stopped him last year because the entire Warriors team collapsed into the paint when LeBron drove to the basket. This year they can't do that, and he's gone right by everyone guarding him.

Because he's tiny and weak. It's the same reason that they don't call fouls when LeBron drives and gets slapped, but Curry lives at the free throw line. People laughed at Ty Lue when he said they officiate LeBron like Shaq, but it's clear as day.
They are fouling like crazy on the defensive end. Cleveland is playing off more. I think this is it. A bunch of small guys agains a bunch of big guys results in some one sided calls.

The worst part was he tried flopping twice on that play before they called that one. He leaned back when Love tried to screen him, and then fell backward five feet when Love bumped him. It's easy to see why other teams hated him.
Did you see right before the flop? He had love in a bear hug. Love got away, you could tell he was frustrated by the no call and then the pos flopped. Looks like egging him on is working.

They are still doing that. The only time the we get some space is when lebron drives. I think he has to drive and dish a few times to clear out the paint.

Fuck NBA referees for getting more obsessed to call charges than NCAA referees. That shit ruins basketball for me. Just play the fucking game. Quit trying to find the perfect spot on the court for a flop.
