Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

With 3 minutes left in game one the Cavs have 19 turnovers. The Warriors have FOUR turnovers.

Talk about whatever else you like but those 15 extra possessions are why Golden State has a 21 point lead.

15 extra posessions on turnover alone

Imagine adding the extra looks from offensive rebounds. 20+ id assume

They need to play the same way GS does on defense and force the refs to either call it blatantly unevenly or decide if they're gonna use their whistles on both ends. Wrap up Curry if you double him in the corner, hook in the paint, hold jerseys and arms if they're holding yours. Don't be subtle about it, either, because GS isn't.

That is what I said last night...the GS defense strategy was just foul the ever living shit out of Cleveland and hope it doesn't get called. That worked well because the refs were not calling it. I mean, it was as blatant as could be. We were going to lose regardless with that piss-poor effort, but the officiating better not continue that way. And the piss-poor effort just infuriates me...it wasn't just that we were missing shots, that is understandable. We had zero discipline or desire on the defensive side. When Durant got the ball, our defenders might as well have set up a ramp up to the basket. At least then our defenders would have had a better view of the massive dunks.
