Someone explain this to me? How an earth are the Cavs down 30?

[VengefulAngel]

I just don't get it lol. Cavs are getting exploited so badly on the defensive end.

[Dr Hawk]

Love with that GOAT level defnse :bowdown: :bowdown:

[Nick Young]

The Leastern conference is just shit. Cavs are overrated and Lebron is mentally soft. What do you need explained?

It still doesn't explain the huge margin of victory at the moment, this is the same team which pushed GS to 6 games.

JR is pretty much the only one that's even trying lol.

Everyone else is playing like giant puzzies.

Love and Kyrie are the biggest problem.

I was one of the people that said they'd do better with Kyrie and Love going down, and I was blasted for it. I honestly think they'd do better with one of them going down again... not both though.

The Kyrie/Love pick and roll on defense is one of the easiest scores in basketball. The Spurs were down the whole game and then they just kept spamming it and points kept coming. There was a reason Tony Parker had his biggest game of the year.

new age of basketball. Cavs brand of ball is bad.

As most people already recognise, Spurs Warriors WCF will be when the NBA champ is crowned

I have to agree but its not only pick and roll defense, Kyrie is losing his man to back cuts, he can't seem to contest Livingston and he's such an iso/ball dominant guard that he's stagnating the offense.

Love is just a terrible defender, I used to think that he was a net positive in this matchup but I'm starting to change my mind. I know i'm being a prisoner of the moment but I can't help myself.

This is the worst display of basketball from a championship contender I have ever seen.

[dhsilv]

Streams failing tonight but from what I've seen. Just domination team to team. The cavs are just not a great team. The warriors are. We have to stop this player stuff as this is the gap in TEAMS.

[BuffaloBill]

It was over when Curry hit 16 points in the 1st quarter.

This just doesn't make sense, how an earth were they able to competitive in the year prior and in the current regular season, this isn't as simple as you are trying to make it out to be.

They're a lot of factors at play here.

Currys a genius

[oarabbus]

Lol @ op's asterisk avy

He mad

[bluechox2]

simple fact that golden state has improved from that finals team

[VengefulAngel]

Currys a genius

He's not the one orchestrating the offense although he is a major cog and is crucial for the whole machine to work. I just can't fathom the Cavs not even providing a decent fight.

[VengefulAngel]

Lol @ op's asterisk avy

He mad

I've had that for a year now, can't be bothered to change it, not mad at all. I'm not a Cavs fan just bewildered how you can go from what the Cavs were to what they are now.

[r0drig0lac]

double team on Stephen Curry was a mistake that proved ineffective since the beginning of the game, make him try to win the game on their own and do not let your open teammates

[Straight_Ballin]

Going into halftime, Love only has taken 4 shots and is 1/4.

Bron is 5/12
Irving is 1/8

They are down by 30 because they are shooting like shit. GSW is applying that western conference harsh D on them and they are struggling.

Meanwhile Curry is 8/10 with 21 points and the FMVP is 4/4.

[Nick Young]

It's not the same team. This team has two defensive liabilities in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love getting major playing time.

[VengefulAngel]

40*

[stalkerforlife]

Curry > Bran

There's your explanation.

[VengefulAngel]

Curry > Bran

There's your explanation.

Then it should be 65 points. The rest of cavs are stacked as fucc.

cavs are stacked

[VengefulAngel]

cavs are stacked

Curry on the Cavs = 80 wins.

Why you do 'em like that? :oldlol:

[plowking]

Why doesn't Andy V play more? He is better than Mozgov and he is always in the right positions defensively.
