| 0:00.0 | Golden State, no problem with the Cleveland Cavaliers. |
| 0:03.9 | Even though Clay Thompson was historically bad for him, it doesn't matter. |
| 0:08.6 | It really just doesn't. |
| 0:12.9 | Three stars could have bad games and they're still winning this. |
| 0:16.5 | Winning it easily. |
| 0:17.8 | See, I disagree that it's going to be easy. |
| 0:19.9 | And as I said, history stands by the fact that LeBron is usually pretty crappy or his teams are in the first game of the finals. As a matter of fact, that of all the times he's played in the finals, which is now, this is the eighth? The eighth time he's been in the finals? Yep. He's one and seven in game one in the finals. LeBron James. His teams don't do well. Well, sure it does. It means that it takes a while for him to actually, he's flat. Every team is different. And he didn't play poorly last night. He did. He was the worst plus minus on the four. In the second half. He had a minus 22. First half he was everywhere. and he was the only reason. Cleveland was only down eight to half, and he was the only reason they were there because Kevin Love turned into Kevin Love from 18 months ago. He had eight turnovers yesterday. A lot of them were in the second half. 15 rebounds, eight assists, and 28 points. I'd take it. Yes. I take that stat line. and eight turnovers. For LeBron James, the best player on the planet, it's a bad game. Okay. No, well, he had a very bad game in game three against the Celtics. That was a very bad game. Fred is right in this point. First of all, LeBron is going to play better, but look at the other two guys. The other two guys |
| 1:27.5 | that they rely upon, take Shumpert and J.R. Smith and that bench out. Tristan Thompson is going |
| 1:32.8 | to play somewhat better. I mean, he went scoreless, but wasn't a force at all, rebounding |
| 1:37.1 | because Golden State on top of playing good defense and scoring at will can rebound the basketball |
| 1:41.6 | also. But the other part of it is you look at Kevin Love, matched up with Clay Thompson, couldn't score on him. Kevin Love getting harassed on the perimeter. All those threes that were going down that were uncontested against the Celtics are no longer uncontested. And by the way, John, Clay Thompson, three for 16, Draymond, three for 12. I mean, let's be honest, it's a joke. |
| 2:03.1 | I mean, Drayman had nine points. Clay Thompson had six. Well, for Draymond, that's about average for him. For Clay Thompson, not three from 12 for the field. No, I understand that. Okay, but Draymond average is about 10 points a game. You're not going to get a lot of points out of 12 from the field. |
| 2:14.6 | I understand. |
| 2:15.3 | We also took like 20 more shots or something than... |
| 2:18.6 | My point is that you want to say LeBron James had a bad game. Well, two All-Stars from their team had bad game. But they hit their averages. I mean, Clay Thompson, obviously, did that. He was off. Clay Thompson was 3 for 16 and Green was 3 for 12. Understood. He doesn't shoot three for 12. |
| 2:35.6 | He might average 10 points a game. He doesn't shoot three for 12. But you have to... Bad games. Yes, I know you have to understand. Thompson played well defensively, as did Green. Now, are you reading into this because it was a blowout last night? No, I'm reading into this because there's no way Cleveland can win this series. I'm looking. Just look at the... |
| 2:50.2 | Look, I told you guys, I'm rooting for LeBron James in this series. |
| 2:53.2 | I said that yesterday. |
| 2:54.4 | See, I'm rooting for LeBron James in this series. |
| 2:53.2 | I said that yesterday. |
| 2:54.4 | See, I'm not rooting for Golden State because that guy yesterday said, |
| 2:57.2 | if Cleveland ends up losing, there's going to be possibly a little bit of hating amongst the players like Kevin Love. |
