Other non-LeBron thoughts....
- Ty Lue probably won't get much credit but he deserves some kudos. Beyond the Draymond suspension changing the series, using the pick and roll to create mismatches for LeBron and Kyrie was great at exposing the issues the Warriors have in one on one matchups outside Draymond and Klay who are both good defenders. Also resisting the urge to force Love into things was also smart.
- Richard Jeffereson, well past his prime, played a vital role in this series. Not sure who had him as the non-LeBron/Kyrie MVP.
- Warriors just fell in love with the threes too much, and even by his standards Curry was forcing way too many of them. Yes he's amazing but sometime running offense is better. Not enough Klay in that 4th quarter tonight.
- Harrison Barnes....he should have cost himself millions but someone will still overpay him without a doubt. Beyond awful this series, even Kevin Love thinks he's awful
- Love of course seems likely to be dealt, but who knows? If he's willing to accept the Bosh role (albeit even less scoring) they'll probably keep him at least one more year, unless LeBron leaves...and yeah that'll be coming up. Woj already posted an article speculating after game 6.
