Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

Not expecting this, but it sure would be fun to take this back to CLE 3-2 and let the bandwagon GS fans sweat a little.

Not expecting it at all either, if they somehow win tonight GS is going to be shitting bricks with their backs all of a sudden against the wall (even though they;d still be up 3-2) though, that would put an amount of pressure that words can't even describe on them.

The Cavs literally have nothing to lose at this point, not many people really expected them to win. GS has everything to lose however, especially Durant. Imagine blowing a 3-0 lead in the finals a year after blown a 3-1 lead (for GS and for Durant with OKC) It would be without a doubt the biggest flop in major pro sports history.

Tonight is really going to show what GS is really made of. If they don't close it out here things get pretty hairy for them.

The sad thing is this series should really be 2-2, that choke job in the last 3 minutes of game 3 was unforgivable.

It was a combination of a choke plus Durant. He's the difference this year, which is pretty much what everyone expected (including most Cavs fans) when he chose to sign with Golden State.

Win tonight and I think I would begin to like the odds the Cavs take the series.

Go back to Cleveland you know a possible collapse, finger pointing coupled with game 7 from last year will be all that runs through the minds of GS.

People, their own fans, will start calling you soft.

Win tonight and the narrative begins to change in Cleveland's favor.

The only thing consistent is calling touch fouls on certain players/situations. They've missed some pretty obvious calls. Pretty sure the foul on Love when he was being held was called by the official that would have been looking right at Zaza with a fistful of Love's jersey.
