Speaking of handling the pressure, that free kick by England in the first have was about as perfect as it gets.

Thanks EVD. I always forget about Slackjaw.

They're about not caring until Christmas....personally I don't know what to make of them, but if LBJ is spending this much time on IG and internet beefs,then he's not worried then, then I won't be worried. They have played 14 games, maybe 20 quarters of actual basketball with 13 different line ups and still are .500.

How many hours of sleep do you get a night on average?

Given that the Cavs backs were to the wall on this, I am happy with the trade. IT for Kyrie isn't a straight swap but Crowder and the valuable pick make it worth it. I am not sure what BOS got out of it besides not having to make a decision on IT's max contract if he had another good year. That seems to be the major upside. Kyrie was always a different kind of dude. He was cool as a cucumber in the high pressure moments but was often disengaged during regular season (and playoff) games.

This has been the best weather possible for water quality at Edgewater too. Not too hot and not much sewer overflow, due to the lack of rain.

^ That sounds pretty awesome for your kids. How late were you there too?

So let me get this straight.. Either Kyrie is sick of Lebron and wants his Junes open so he can hit the Jersey Shore... or he is worried that Lebron will bolt and leave him on a team depleted of talent/poorly configured to play without Lebron, which means Kyrie would be the MAN on a team depleted of talent. So he's forcing a trade now, so he can go be the MAN onto a team that will be depleted of talent because they traded it to get him? HUH?

Except for the fact that we gave up 67 points. That's my point. We can't play that way with GSW. That is their game. They want games that are in the 130s. They don't want games like Game 7 from last year where neither team scores 100 I agree 100%, we can't out run and gun this team. We tried last year and it didn't work then either. Who on this team can muck it up and slow it down while Lebron and Kryrie handle the offense? Shump? Derrick Williams? D Jones? Who else? Normally I would say JR but he's MIA except for committing horrible fouls.TT has either been figured out or khloe has ruined another NBA player. One other observation, is it me or are both teams slipping and sliding all over the place at Oracle? JR literally planted and slid into Steph on that one foul I just see the guy with the towel wiping up the sweat instead of the big mop things the Cavs have at home.

I found the Zach Lowe article. It's a good breakdown of the X's and O's. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/19500294/zach-lowe-2017-nba-finals-preview-prediction-golden-state-warriors-vs-cleveland-cavaliers

I won't be surprised either way. It seems a win-win for the Cavs as long as you don't get blown out, you either beat GSW, or GSW had to sign freaking KD to beat you. I do feel like the cavs lost those first two games last year in part to them trying to run complex switching schemes on D. It seemed once they simplified their D and trusted their talent things got much tighter the rest of the series. Plus they started running straight at Steph on offense. Is possible JR and Draymond will make through the series without getting T'd up? Now that's unbelievable. Edit: Holy crap, I forgot GSW only score 89pts in game 7.

My cat that just passed away was originally with my cousin who took him to her rental car office at times. He bit Mike Brown. LOL I take that as a good omen. I don't dislike Mike Brown, he was one of the many issues that the Cavs had the first time around with Lebron. However his stints at LA and back again in Cle proves that his coaching isn't that great. So keep your trap shut.

^It going to be a long week of waiting...

While I was driving to get lunch Phelps on 92.3 was discussing how few minutes Love actually played in last year's finals after going out with the concussion in Game 2. I hadn't realized that, the Cavs are basically adding him back if he stays healthy.

Vegas odds are much as about emotion as they are facts. They are looking to take peoples money. On paper based on stats from this year it's probably 80% favoring GSW, but the history from Lebron and these two teams say it's much closer to 60/40 or slightly less than even still favoring GSW. Either way it's an all-time rematch. One question. Can Steph defend the 3? I know he gets steals on the move. Who is he defending in the starting five? JR? Lebron, no. Kyrie, no. Love, no. Tristan? but then he would be into far for transition points. Whom did he cover at Christmas?
