If this weren't like Draymond's 7th adventure in nut hunting this playoffs he might get the benefit of the doubt. You can be a pest and annoy people without the cheapshots. Draymond is a touch crazy though.

[Senator Clay Davis]

No way the second half can be as good as that, but that was a pretty great half of basketball.

Good game so far. Klay Thompson is just awesome with 3-pointers. Golden State offense is good but they hve to tighten up their defense. Lebron, Irving and Smith are playing well also. I still think Warriors will win it tonight. I can see Steph Curry picking up his game in the 2nd half as Cavs might start double-teaming Klay so it means Steph will be open.

Gotta think Bogut just blew his ACL. I hate watching that kinda stuff. What a first half of basketball that was though.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Cavs should be living in the paint with this Golden State lineup. Taking 3s is a waste.

[OzSome]

Wow, commentator especially Jeff Van Gundy is very critical of Varejao all night. Van Gundy is actually is a pro-Cavs in this series. So annoying.

Irving is just going off right now

[Senator Clay Davis]

Kyrie blazing hot fire right now. Goodness.

[Hockey_Ninja]

Curry has really stunk it up in these finals outside of game 4

[Senator Clay Davis]

Kevin Love has 2 points by the way. Might as well have suspended him too. Curry besides being awful has also had awful shot selection in the 4th. Uncle Drew got in his head when he went off.

I desperately want this series to go to a game 7.

[dammage79]

So with DeRozan opting for FA this year. Does that make room for Durant?

[Calgary14]

I dont follow basketball closely but watched last nights game - why was Draymond Green banned from the arena? Is that normal? Seems pretty drastic for a one game suspension

[Senator Clay Davis]

Standard NBA procedure, if you are suspended you are not allowed in the arena. So had they let him in the building they would have essentially had to cancel that rule right there, or explain why Draymond is special. And just to kind of show how much LeBron gets taken for granted, almost no one is talking about his game even though he dropped 41pts 16rebs 7ast 3blk 3stl. First player with 40 and 15 in the Finals since Shaq in 2001. Even if he isn't at peak anymore he can still have games no one else can.

Props to Turner Sports and ESPN: Craig Sager will work as a sideline reporter for ABC for Game Six of the NBA Finals.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Remember when Tristan Thompson looked like garbage against the Raps? This game would be way he got that contract. Warriors look lost right now.

Lebron is beasting

[Senator Clay Davis]

Curry gets ejected after fouling out lol.

[OzSome]

2 phantom foul on Curry tonight. Refereeing been brutal all through the playoffs. Not saying that is the reason why Warriors are losing. It feels like the Cavs are getting the calls since the Conference Finals.
