Yeah my lakers were pretty awesome back then. I hope they have a clone of Jerry Buss developing somewhere because the current owners makes Clevelands owner....look like Dr. Jerry Buss.

I expect Cleveland to get back into the series tonight. LeBron has never been swept, has he? I had the Cavaliers in 6, but props to Golden State. Cleveland is healthy this series and Golden State is whipping them even more. After the first two games, don't see this series making it past five games. Hopefully it's done in 5 so the Warriors can celebrate at home.

Alright, any bets to see if Lue will take to heart all the criticism and see if he makes a lineup change?

If I see Mozgov starting I will laugh my ass off.

That would prompt a firing that I'm sure would get Mathguy out of his seat and create a stirring debate in here for the next week or so.

I'm no dummy when it comes to Cavs stuff...
Moz is not the player he was last season, added weight sat on his behind and nursed and injury all offseason. And if you ask me his confidence is severely shaken. Not a four or five game stretch to try to "find something"

So if KLove is out and Lue doesn't start Mozgov then I guess it'll be Frye starting with Mosgov coming off the bench? No other options, I suppose.
More interestingly is if KLove is able to play in Game 3, what changes would Lue make then?

What adjustments do you think they should do?

All I know is that the warriors can shoot over everyone on the Cavs. At least moz had the height. Slowing the game down like last year could be a good strategy. And no, Moz isn't fast, but might be effective in a slowed down approach. Maybe not start him and only go to this a couple times during a game, but I think it's something to try. Can't be any worse than the first two games.

Well the Warriors did only lose nine games during the season, so I don't think a sweep is out of the question. The Thunder series made everyone forget how dominant they've been, but the Cavs haven't (or won't) exposed any chinks in the armor.

*shrug* The Cavs are overdue for a firing of their coach or GM anyway.

The bottom line is that Love and KI are getting abused....along with pretty much the entire Cavs bench but let's see how they rally in the series.
