Cleveland is in a constant double team on Curry. There's a reason green is hitting shots where there isn't a cav within 20 feet

This game, man...super intense. Whoever wins it, I think you're just going to have to tip your cap and say "well done, well earned".

I honestly don't care who wins. But I would find it hilarious if the 73-9 team lost the championship.

Why exactly? How is he different from any other star NBA player that complains to the refs?
How anyone can't respect what a magnificent player he is - is beyond me.
Plus - would be great to see Cleveland get a championship.

I can't respect his magnificence because he works the system to get an unfair advantage due to his status. Maybe it's too idealistic to think that star players don't get special treatment, but it's obscene at times when it comes to LeBron, and it creates a false inflation of his talent when the calls go his way so often.

He's talented, one of the greatest all-around players to ever play the game, but he gets a lot of help from the refs these days, and his constant whining makes it even more pronounced. Not exactly the idol people think he is.

As much as his whining annoys me , Lebron also gets less calls on fouls since he is a tank then a lot of players . It goes both ways with him

True story, DeRozan has averaged more free throws per game than LeBron at least the last two years. LeBron is not anywhere near the beneficiary of officials that people think. Durant shoots more free throws as primarily a jump shooter than LeBron who drives a lot.

Yeah it is just a narrative that people use to hate on James. People have said the same thing about the best players in the NBA throughout history. It has no merit.
edit: What a game!

That's just simply not true. It has merit, it's just that it's such a consistent reality in the NBA that nobody pays any attention to it anymore. Star player treatment is a reality in the NBA, but they pay the bills, so play on...

Speaking of Lebron. You can add another triple-double to his stat book.
