Two reasons why the series is not over because of Kyrie being out

[PWB15]

1. Golden State depends on three pointers to score points

2. Golden State depends on the fast break to get points


So what happens if the Cavs are having a good shooting night and the Warriors have to depend on long three's? That will eliminate the fast break pts and force the warriors to score in the half court which will benefit the Cavs


Plus the Cavs played well without Kyrie in the ECF and still managed to make the Finals so why would the series be over because of ONE GUY when the MAIN GUY, Lebron is still playing?


Can someone talk to me?

Neither points are true.

[PWB15]

Neither points are true.

So the warriors don't get most of their pts from the fast break and long three pointers?

Let the kid dream.

That's what they do well, very well, but they don't depend on them at all. They are just as good in the half court and lead the league or at least are top 3 in PIP.

To counter those points


1) GS's defense comes through, especially in the clutch. They are better defensively than offensively.

2) GS's bench will throughly outplay Cleveland's bench.

Our offense comes from our defense. The best chance at a Cavs win is the Warriors key defensive players getting in foul trouble.

In other words, the refs are the best chance the Cavs have at winning this series.

Wow. That's called respecting your opponent, folks.

Let me translate the reasons for everyone that didn't understand the OP:

1. Delusion

2. Denial

[PWB15]

And the Warriors maybe at a disadvantage now that the media has crowned them the 2015 Champs due to Kyrie being out which is foolish since they are up 1-0

Charles barley brainwashing idiots cavs were 9-31 from 3 in game one and warriors 10-27. 4 less threes shot yet they are dependent on them?

Im the new OP.

Two reasons why the series is not over because of Kyrie being out

1. Tristan Thompson will absorb every rebound.
2. Mozgov/Thompson/James frontcourt trio will dominate the paint on defense.

The Warriors also won the rebounding battle. The most impressive stat of the night was all 10 Warriors played grabbed at least 3 rebounds.

A byproduct of going 10 deep against a team who goes 7 deep (6 deep now). To be fair, we outrebounded them for four quarters. They got a ton of defensive rebounds in OT due to the fact that the Cavs didn't score until the last 30 seconds.

I'm not too worried about our ability to control the glass when it is our starters vs. their starters. But, their depth and our lack of depth will impact every facet of the game.

The fact that Lebron, Mozgov, and Thompson is still playing I don't know why so many think the rest of the series will be a cake walk
