    Advocating for JR to injure someone because of the inadvertent Barnes/Love collision is straight out of the Steeler playbook.

    Yeah San Antonio huge market

    2. San Antonio Spurs

    San Antonio is the 9th smallest NBA market, but somehow manages to earn the 7th largest nightly ticket revenue in the league. This shouldn’t really be a surprise, as the Spurs have put together a ridiculous 24-year run where they’ve won over 67% of their regular season games (1286-622), won four NBA championships, and made four additional Western conference finals appearances. Led by stars like David Robinson, Dennis Rodman, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, and Tim Duncan on the court, and Greg Popovich off the court, the Spurs have rewarded fans for over two decades. In turn, the fans have rewarded the San Antonio Spurs.

    1. Miami Heat

    Were you expecting anything less from the Heat? Last year’s champs have had two consecutive seasons of good ticket revenue growth, leading to the 4th largest increase over the past three seasons. Winning will do that for a franchise. Having the best player in the league and winning 27 games in a row doesn’t hurt either.

    Remove the tinfoil cap. San Antonio is a small media market and ticket sales mean little to NBA brass, it's all about TV ratings. This series is a win/win for the NBA. GS wins and the dynasty talk begins. The Cavs win and Lebron solidifies his legacy with #3 and with one in "Excuse Town", I mean Believeland.

  • I can't see the Cav's pulling this one out. They are outclassed and out hustled.

  • can't play physical when the refs call it flagrantly biased..

    but yes, their shots went cold again.

    Look at the scores of Ok vs GS -

    just have to hope the Cavs get rested and hit

    on their own home court.. twice.

    In every NBA arena the referring is skewed toward the home team. The problem is Cleveland's offense has been non-existent.

  • That was the team we all want to see. Win or lose there's no shame if you play like that

    I 100% agree. If the warriors play their best against that cavs team last night...its a close game. No shame in losing the finals if we put out like that. Getting housed for 4 games though was gonna make me feel like we should have let the raptors win.

  • Series is overr though if lebrons jumper is here to stay. All the other guys feed off it and get in their rythms. Plus its just easier for lebron, he's not as tired at the end of the games. When scoring is easy for lebron, everything else the team does opens up

    Lebrons jumper is the least of the factors that led to a cavs blow out last night.

    Kyrie's jumper on the other hand...

    And not running 500 isolation plays, and JR smith finally showing up for a finals game.

    A lot of good stuff happened really

    And that all happened because golden states defensive scheme of pinching down on lebrons perimeter outlets doesnt work when you face up with lebron out near the 3 pt line. Yeah once guys got in rythm it was a boat race lebrons jumper doesnt matter.

    In any case the announcers all made the exact same assessment.

    I think thats a given. The matchup just isnt right with the warriors. Cavs already have to protect kyries defense.

    OK, it does pull the Warrior's defense out, I'll grant you that.

    He doesn't have to shoot the lights out from outside, just make enough to get Golden State's attention.

    Given. Love cannot guard Draymond Green. (LeBron can) If K-Love isn't scoring 25 and pulling down 12 rebounds, he's a liability. That leaves TT to defend the Warriors other bigs. I was damn impressed the way Thompson defended Curry on the perimeter in switches.
