Have I denied that? I don't have an anti-Green bias. If I'm anti something it's anti-NBA/Silver with them bending themselves over to ensure the games going towards a certain direction. I bet if the Warriors had been up 3-0 against OKC they would've suspended Green.

No not you sorry. This is why I need to just directly reply to people.

As far as OKC is concerned, while 3-1 seems like a commanding lead, I didn't believe for a single instant they would win another road game. I knew that it would all come down to game 6.

They blew off game 5 to focus on winning game 6. Then when they lost game 6 in the fashion they did, there was no way they were going to bounce back and win game 7 in Oakland.

Golden State has a different 3-1 lead. Not only are they the better team capable of winning on the road, but they have 2 home games. Ok, so after tonight they only have 1 home game, but they are still very much in the driver's seat.

Green is a dirty PoS and should have been suspended last series. I don't give a damn that the NBA finally came down on him in an overt bid to help extend the series because if he was suspended when he should have been its likely that OKC wins the western conference.

I doubt it because Green played awful vs the Thunder and the game he should have been suspended for they got blown out.

This extraordinary game by Lebron James....huh? I know he had a good game but it was Kyrie Irving with the extraordinary game.

lol. What a pathetic little hater you are. 41-16-7 and all over the place on defense and you can't give the man his due. Sad.

Agree. Cavs are 100% dependent on two guys and the Warriors are the ultimate team. Either James or Irving falters and there is no one there to pick up the slack.

I really hope Kerr sends in the goons to 1980's pistons style foul Le***** next game. Can you imagine Kobe, Jordan, Bird *****ing after a game to have a guy suspended? No, they would want to beat the best possible team instead of having things handed to them

They would want him playing....and they would put him in their own personal torture chamber.

It's gonna kill me working the Dixie Chicks concert while game 6 is going on

(as if Dixie Chicks wasn't bad enough).

Cavs in 7-games. Lebron anointed best of all time. News at 11.

Getting Green back will help on both ends of the court. They should close this out in Cleveland. Thompson and Curry are playing well again too.

AvocadoIceCream · Jun 14, 2016

Well Cleveland Will win the series if Kyrie continues to go off, and if LeBron continues to hit jumpers at a high rate.

Don't count on it

Yeah GS does have a better Team and Bench but I feesl for the Cleveland Team and their Fans I don't see them losing Thursday. It's sad that Love ain't living up to that contract

Lebron is the Brady of Basketball. If Cleveland can push it to a Game 7 it's anyone's Game.

It's an insult to Brady to compare James to him. James is more like the complete opposite of Brady. A guy born with a once-in-a-lifetime physical talent, hailed as the chosen one from a young age on. But a guy who lacks mental toughness and the absolute drive to do whatever it takes to win.

AvocadoIceCream · Jun 14, 2016

LOL how can you compare LeBron to Brady?

I'm curious to see what Le***** does in game 6 to try and get some other warriors players ejected/suspended to try and even up the odds a little bit.

That may actually be the most God Awful stupidest thing that anyone in any Age has ever said.

There really isn't a good comparison for Brady, Kobe is too selfish and Brady is a lot higher up on all time NFL list than Kobe in NBA. LeBron is..well no need to dig into that. Maybe consistently good like Duncan but, their personalities are too different. Maybe Bird would be a somewhat decent comparison?

Lebron is the Peyton Manning of th3 nba, except with even more favorable whistles and a much bigger douche.

I definitely wouldn't say that, LeBron is far better in the playoffs than Peyton. Peyton never carried his team to a single title. He was awful in both playoff runs.

Not sure I agree with that. The raw stats would suggest Lebron is in the discussion with MJ but he is the ultimate stat padder. Heat beat an inexperienced OKC team then Lebron was bailed out by Ray Allen in 2013. Ppl conveniently forget just how bad Lebron played down the stretch or game 6 and the first 6 games of that series in general.
I will agrebe that Peyton has been more underwhelming but the toughest competitiom Lebron has faced from 2010-present was in 2012 with an aging Celtics team.

Both heralded coming into the league, both with underwhelming post season success.
