Our beat down of them was the turning point. They fired their coach and the rest is championship history. LOL! Fuck the Warriors!
Yup, plus we took that scrub very-chow off their roster, gifted him to GSW, and the rest is history. None of this happens without us. I hosted a house full of Warriors "fans" tonight for Fathers Day dinner and, short of a PDX championship, this is just about as happy as i could be at the end of any NBA season, ever.
A moment of jubilation for all the haters, doubters and unbelievers. There's really nothing else to say. Steph Curry fucking choked in the NBA Finals.
Rooted for the poor city of Cleveland and was happy at the results. Blatt is still a good coach just wasn't a fit with the real coach.
On a more serious note, they kinda do... We gave the NBA the blueprint on how to frustrate the Warriors, we just didn't have all the pieces to finish the games.
I believe this as well. Stotts absolutely figured something out in Game 3. The Blazers didn't have the firepower to stop an unconcious Curry in games 4 and 5, but the cat was out of the bag on the chink in their armor.
I think it was our switching, we were beat but we showed that no matter who we switched on Curry he still was gonna take the 3. The Cavs found a lot of success putting guys like Tristan Thompson, Richard Jefferson, and hell Kevin Love even shut him down to close the game. On the other end of the floor the Cavs found out how to exploit his lack of defensive ability when LeBron or Kyrie would send his man (usually JR) to set a screen so they could switch onto Curry. They abused him like how CJ and Dame (when he got his spots against him) did.
We also forced Golden State to bring Curry back earlier than maybe they wanted to, and he had to play big minutes right away.
Plus we played them a rugged five games and tired the Warriors out for the Cavs...the longest 4-1 series ever
