And 2 of the games went to Overtime.
We are all witnesses
:bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:
Good defense. Slow pace. Not a choke yet.
This looks like one of the biggest chokes ever.
Granted they could still pull it even, but if they go down 3-1...
67 win team. MVP. Stacked 1-10. Complete meltdown in the finals. They don't even look like they're running the same plays. Its that night and day.

When why is Lebron shooting 40%?

When why is Lebron shooting 40%?Dont get it twisted, the Warriors are doing everything they can to make him take bad shots. However, that gives the floor to Dellavedova, Shumpert, and Jr Smith to shoot the ball. Lebron isn't shooting the ball well at all, but the rest of the TEAM is and the Warriors, and their #1 ranked defense :lol , cant stop it.

...and since the Western conference defense is overrared, that also overrates their offenses. Since they are playing against each other. Golden State being exposed in the NBA Finals is shining light on how overrated the West has been all year.
The Warriors have faced 2 good defensive teams and 2 bad defensive teams. Against Memphis (up until injury) and the Cavaliers Steph is playing like shit. And against the injured Pelicans and injured Rockets he shined like the MVP that he is.

oh the horror

They still made the finals though.
The year the Mavs won 67 games and (ironically enough) were bounced in the first round by the 8th seed Warriors would be the definition of a choke.

The Mavs 2nd best player was Josh Howard, who was out of the league two years later.
They played against their former coach Don Nelson, who knew them inside out.
They were coached by Avery Johnson, who was Mark Jackson long before Mark Jackson.

The Cavs offense for the series is around the same level as the Hornets and Knicks were the entire regular season. Which is 28th and 29th in the league. What the hell are you talking about :oldlol: The Warriors are choking on offense

Maybe this will take the spotlight off 2011 Miami since I see no one mentioning it anymore.

Maybe because we've lost two of the best offensive talents in the entire league, perhaps? And they've been replaced by almost exclusively defense/hustle guys?
The Cavs offense is a grind right now because (a) they want it to be a grind and playing at a faster pace would be prettier and likely result in more points, but would kill the whole game-plan and (b) the former second unit, used when we needed defense, rebounding and toughness, is now the first unit. We don't even have a second unit, atm.
The Warriors, on the other hand, are 100-percent healthy. There's no other reason for the massive dropoff in offensive production so far in this series. The Cavs' defense, pace, toughness and controlling of the boards has taken them out of their game, period. They didn't see this kind of team in the Western Conference. There were actually two in the East... us and the Bulls. And Chicago was really f#cking good.

Yeah I know. I'm responding to him saying GS's defense has been bad, implying the Cavs are killing them offensively

My word of choice is: OVERRATED.
The entire West coast is overrated. They have good teams, but most of their defenses are overrated. They win games by fast breaking each other to death, and that's okay, because it's still basketball.
BUT IN THE PLAYOFFS THAT WONT WORK.
