Never mind .... They reviewed a 3 by Thompson. Ruled a 2. 47-45 at half
Mozgov travels so much.

Is traveling illegal in the NBA?
but on the court it's generally frowned upon. Cavs fan here, but I thought Mozgof was dancing a bit too.
Warriors are a great team, but Lebron is a special player. Sure wish Irving and Love weren't injured.
Yup. I am used to it. We are cursed in this town and I am convinced we will never win a major title again.
Dellavedova hasn't scored, but he's a +14 in the half because he shut Curry out completely (his points all came off Shumpert, didn't they?).
James Jones also +14. Tristan Thompson -18 and J.R. Smith -10. Basketball +/- can be deceiving because of matchups but I don't think these are. At the Golden State end it's all about stopping Curry without having to scramble so much that they leave other guys wide open. That only happens when they go small (no Mozgov/Thompson together) and Dellavedova's the one on Curry.
And at the other end it's all Lebron all the time and it doesn't matter so much who's on the floor.
I love Delli's spirit and tenaciousness, but he should stop shooting and he's going to hurt someone throwing his body around. He turned the ball over to end the 3Q and threw his leg out as he was falling to trip the other player. dirty. That said, go cavs.
Everyone predicts a blowout but here we are. Still think GS covers
Delly playing great defense.
Klay Thompson is playing well.
LEBRON IS REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD.
Mozgov came to play.
Okay this 3rd Quarter is playing at an unreal pace. Everyone bricking isn't helping.
all those people complaining about the ncaa hoops scoring "problem" forgot to watch the NBA when teams actually play defense
Yeah but the NCAA scoring problem isn't because of good defense.
So true. If they played every game like it's the finals the season could only be like 50 games.
I absolutely hate Curry and Thompson; likely because I am a Cavs fan.
Fuck matt dellavedova. Fucking bitch who looks like a rat

Come on. He's a standout in the classroom and on the court. http://www.npr.org/2015/06/07/412686718/cavs-matthew-dellavedova-a-stan…
One reason (the other being Golden State's style of play) I'm rooting for the Warriors in 4. Tired of hatchet-men in professional sports who have no other talents. At least Bruce Bowen could hit a three when needed.
Keeping your opponent from scoring is a fairly important basketball skill. He's been man-up on the MVP for 24 minutes now, and the MVP hasn't even scored in that time. And he's only used three fouls.
If you think that's being a "hatchet man" and has no place in basketball, I don't think we're fans of the same sport.
He is a hatchet man. I don't mind players who play great defense (e.g. Mike Conley, Jr.) and keep star players in check. But this guy is a pure hatchet man whose main purpose is to irritate players by any means necessary. He offers nothing else. And I'm not just referring to tonight's game.
If you don't understand why this is good defense, you should pay more attention. You might learn something.
Watch his positioning when the ball's away, notice how it's different from how Shumpert plays Curry, or, much worse, how the other guys play Thompson when Shumpert's shifted to Curry.
You never know when the motherfucker is gonna dive at your knees. Gotta stay on your toes around him.
He just scored on two possessions in a row.
Yes, his first field goals made in three quarters
Just hit a three. I think he's good.
You don't know what the fuck you are talking about, blackstarwolverine.
Golden State is 4-22 on 3's right now. When they finally catch fire this will turn into a 15 point lead in about 4 minutes.

Did I just see Cass Tech in that Adidas commercial?
It's the Mosgov show! 15 and 10 and counting.
ROFL Mozgov just drawing fouls like crazy
Terrible call.

It wasn't on the cylinder, but that might have still been on the rim. If so, I think that's a no-no.
Any part of the ball in the cylinder means it's illegal. If the ball's on the rim, part of it is in the cylinder by definition.
Just let him go crazy. Didn't work last game. His vision and passing ability is too great to help.
Cavs have to feel good. Mike Miller is in the game and they still have the lead
How on earth do you blow that dunk? Just how does that happen?
It's like they picked up 10 guys from the IM building to play in the Finals tonight.
Jesus. This is a mess.
If the Cavs somehow manage to win this series, it could be one of the all time great sports stories. But Lebron will have to literally will them to a title.

Worst missed shot ever
Way to blow a bunny.
Im not a Cavs at all, but damn I wish Love & Irving were healthy.
Even just one of them healthy would be awesome. I have the Warriors in a sweep. With Kyrie it would be Dubs in 5. With Kyrie and love Ws in 6. With Kyrie, love, and varejao, Warriors in 7
the "dubbs" may not win it at all.
the Cavs certainly win.
Worst 7 seconds in the history of nba lmao. The last 7 seconds of third quarter lol. Missed dunk, missed foul, three bodies on the ground including the referee lol.

Dellavedova +16
James Jones +18
Mozgov +11
Thompson -20
---
Draymond Green -7
Festus Ezeli -8
These do not lie.
I think the Warriors are about 3-52 from 3 point range tonight.
The physicality and defense in this game has been really impressive. What a grind.
