Yea. James purposefully stepped over a downed player and dangled those nads in his face. Totally disrespectful. Erin I watched a video that the NBA viewed (and determined the suspension) and it shows Green punching him twice. Sbnation had it up Hubby and I were saying this years playoffs are starting to resemble street fights!

Sbnation had it up Hubby and I were saying this years playoffs are starting to resemble street fights! He flung his arm, once while he was being purposefully stepped on. I am not saying Green is a saint. The groin kick from the previous game was way out of line, but, James should not have stepped over him like that and dragged his junk across his head. He had a clear path to go around him. Equally guilty. That said, LeBron brought his A-game tonight. Good win. Erin

The video with the reverse view shows Green making contact with Lebrons nads--that isn't the arm flinging strike that has been repeatedly shown is what I meant by the other video!

But with Green already having 3, no matter what was happening, he had to control himself. He KNEW one more would get him suspended.
Of course, the other team knew that as well. He can't control what they do to him. But he can control how he responds.

Good game but bummer score, sorry Warrior fans. It was a really good, hard first half though.

I am a Warriors fan, and it was a hard loss last night. But Kyrie and LeBron played really well and deserved the win.
On to Thursday!

1 Oakland 2 Oakland 3 Cleveland 4 Cleveland 5 Oakland 6 Cleveland 7 Oakland
I didn't watch and missed Sager's interview. How was it?

It's sad to see Ayesha Curry tweeting that the NBA rigged the game favoring the Cavs. Wonder if they'll fine the Curry!
I think that Stephen Curry is acting childish --you don't go reaching in to steal the ball when you already have 4 fouls!!!

Back to back MVPs and millions of $$$. She wasn't crying last year. Maybe someone should confiscate Mrs. Curry's phone if she can't keep it classy. Throwing an object into the stands or fans is an automatic ejection and there will probably be a sizable fine. There were some bad calls both ways. It wasn't only on Curry, K Love had some crappy calls as well, although I'm sure some will disagree.

It's always sad when a team does great and prevails, the other team calls them cheats or it was rigged. Throwing gear into the crowd is grounds for eviction. He's supposed to be a professional. There was so much slapping and pushing done by Curry that wasn't called either.

Note I neither represent "the other team" nor am a fan of either team. IMHO the NBA tainted the Cavs' win & insulted everyone involved with its blatantly obvious objective to force a Game 7.

I don't believe that for a minute. From the get go of the game, the Cavs out played them. It happens.

I read, and I wish I could quote it, Steve Kerr said something like - Let me be clear, we didn't lose because of officiating. They outplayed us.

Steph Curry was his own worst enemy last night. He made mistakes that he shouldn't have--and he lost his cool. LeBron and Irving played great again. I'm sure that the NBA is not crying over a Game 7, but they lost the game because of the better performance, not because it's rigged. I mean seriously --if a game was really rigged, players wouldn't get hurt, wouldn't foul out, they wouldn't play so hard to the point of dropping to exhaustion. Not to mention that you're talking hundreds of people "being in on" the conspiracy! Lol.
