Do any of the reporters after the game ever ask Steve Kerr this question?

"Why does your team continue to shoot 3's if they are up 14 since instead of using up the shot clock and getting a good 2 point shot to maintain the lead and momentum?


Launching up 3's and then missing leads to fast breaks opportunties for the other team

Terrible officiating by the Cleveland Refs lol

Durant was defended too aggressive at the end and fell down,Most def needed to shoot a couple free throws...

Warriors dominated the whole game and made a few key mistakes,They're gonna smash the Cavs in the rematch in Oakland but nothing really matters until June.Spurs is right there as well.

Bad coaching lost the game like it did in Game 7.

Thought it was a great game.

Cleveland missed too many put backs and had great looks that didn't fall.

Hard to say the Warriors would smash them in a rematch.

And no JR.

Both teams are very good. And the fact remains Irving is still better than Curry and it is the key to matchup IMO.

So GS out shot Cleveland 48% to 39% and LOST.

I've been following the NBA for a while now and where you get in trouble is if your opponent has something that shows up every night. Defense and rebounding are two of those and can win even if your shot isn't falling.

GS got MASSACRED on the boards and had better take a long hard look at how they're going to deal with teams that are focusing in on that weak spot. Add in the fact that if they lose DG to foul trouble or general nut-kicking\punching they are REALLY screwed.

We'll see whom is healthy come playoff time and I live Kevin Durant's game but at some point have they overloaded on small-ball and scoring?

Yeah, I saw that Cleveland had 95 shots, what's the average for shots per team?

The game should never have come down to a final shot because GS led by 14 in the 4th qtr and once again Kerr was unable to manage the lead and the clock
