Lebron and Co. have been beating up on dweebs for the last 7 years and when they run up on someone that can treat them like they've treated the Eastern Conference, suddenly it's a problem.

But Lebron has never played with 3 other potential HOFers.  Except for that time in Miami.  But other than that, teams have been trash.

Again. Clearly the warriors are the better team.

We can't blame Lebrons teammates for his defensive efforts. Can't blame them for his poor second halves (by his standards.) Can't blame them for him going scoreless the last 4 minutes of game 3 when Durant scored 12 in the quarter.

Lebron was great but KD was greater. I'm not sure how that's hard to understand

On a related note, this is a copycat league. Lue needs to take several pages out of Kerr's book and rely on less dribbling and more (meaningful) ball & player movement.

Kyrie & Bron were working soooooooooo hard in the half court, dribbling the air out of the ball. They need to scale back that part of the offense. They have a tremendously skilled offensive trio. They don't need to run offense like that.

Bron & Kyrie probably took 1k more dribbles than Durant and Steph, not even joking. This goes back to last year too (before KD) & why they down 3-1 in the first place.
 
LeBron has been playing with 2 all stars on his team for the last 7 years against crappy eastern conference competition but LeBron stans trying to discredit Durant.... ya'll wildin

I agree with this 1000%.  If you look at the fourth quarter of every game, damn near every possession is lebron or Kyrie taking turns running ISO's on the top of the key.  They need to add some back screens, curls, flairs, more love and Lebron post ups.  The ball gets so damn stagnant when it slows down and its part of the reason why they are usually so bad in the fourth.  Hard to get buckets when you are taking tough, contested shots on dead legs because you have been playing 45 minutes a game.

stop it, you are better than this

And serious question, whose fault is it right now that the Cavs don't have a deeper team?

As soon as he started to break down, Lebron left.  That's the laughable part of the entire thing.  Dude legit tucked his tail and ran after that last finals lost because he saw the writing on the wall.  But every year while Lebron was there he averaged 22, 5 and 5 like clockwork.
