    These are not exactly the 2 best-coached teams I've ever seen in Finals history.

    But the media should play up the heroic aspect of the Cavaliers almost winning, every game, without their 2nd- and 3rd-best players.

    When you have no analysis after a successful shot, say "Great ball movement by the" Cavs/Warriors. About 40 times so far tonight.

    The Warriors don't deserve this asterisk championship that they're about to win. Each game, they barely win against a hobbled, uncoached team. They have been the media's favorite team for 2 years now, or else this aspect would be constantly mentioned.

    Warriors have got it now. Cavs might win one game, but I can't see them winning two.

    My advice to the Cavs is to change coaches right after the series. The Cavs are just playing playground ball, a shambles of LeBron 1-on-1. I'm not impressed with Kerr either, but he fits his personnel better than Blatt. Neither coach has an iconic system like the great coaches do. Neither uses his front line systematically.

    It's hard to watch. Both teams could be so much better.

    Who here actually thought the cavs had a chance. Not just hope they won, but legitimetaly had a chance, after Kyrie went down? Even when GS was down 2-1, it was gonna be done in 6. Warriors style doesn't bode well for bench depleted opponents.

    It won't end in 6. There will be a game 7 and I think Cleveland will win. They have the best player in the building.

    Put LeBron on any team and they're in the Finals.

    His supporting cast laid an egg.
