    Smart analysis is that Golden State keeps it close through 3 quarters, and the Death lineup (+51 in the series) opens it up in crunch time, since the Cavs have not been able to matchup against it.

    Ok, Bovada is at -2 Cavs..so you gotta be happy with that....BUT...

    NO MONEYLINE!!!

    This is just a criminal organization folks.

    SO the middle tightens up a little and you lose 1 more unit on it.

    Only question is if Draymond can handle the amount of minutes he'll have to play at the 5 considering how little Kerr has trusted Ezeli this series. But I imagine it'll mostly play out like you describe.

    Cavs changed plans at last minute, and the T-shirt giveaway tomorrow night will be black Cavs shirts.

    BLACK Cavs shirts. BLACK. These #TeamPetty jokes write themselves.

    They do look nice though:

    Every NBA reporter in America is thanking the Cavs for writing their "funeral" lede for them.

    ESPN: If Dubs win tonight, it will be 3rd time a title is won on 6/16. The others would be Dubs last year and 72-10 Bulls in 96

    OK, took Golden State -1.5 and Klay Thompson to win MVP +500.

    The Middle Bet is in at Golden State +2. Gave away a unit if I lose the top two. Got down on Cavs to win the series at +400 and parlayed both games moneyline, and that is basically it. I can either win very little 2/5, very likely win 6/5 on my money, and have a decent chance at 8/5 if I sweep tonight.

    Most likely outcome if Klay does not win MVP, is around 6/5.

    the only way the middle works of course is if Golden State is favored in a game 7, but that is a foregone conclusion so I am not sweating it. In fact, I am not sweating tonight. I really think it's over tonight.

    I will be EXTREMELY impressed if the Cavs force a game 7 with a win tonight.

    and There is the confidence stat of the day.

    Another one:

    There has been 7 teams that have been up 3-2 in the NBA Finals after losing games 3 and 5, all 7 have gone on to win game 6. (7-0)

    I really don't understand how over/under and betting lines work.

    But I did bet a friend that GSW took it at home in game 5, before the Green suspension came out.

    This made me confident enough to offer them double or nothing.

    Kyrie Irving though...!

    Never thought I'd be rooting for the Cavs but here I am, hoping for that franchise to get itself a championship, for Lebron's experiment to bring victory to Cleveland, to be successful.

    I'll give Kyrie credit, I was doggin him the beginning of the series but he's been an offensive force the last game and a half. If he can come up with a 40 pt performance in a Game 7 (if Cleveland can hold...) they could win on the road against this GS team. GS has been making some dumb turnovers, really careless passing at times.

    This will be the closest Cleveland has been to a championship since Game 7 world series 1997 Indians vs Marlins.

    Lebron is the best player on the court without question. One of the greatest games I've ever seen a basketball player have. He's been dominant on defense and offense, just taking this game over on every level. Amazing game from Lebron. Hope they win it lol.

    Curry was kinda victimized by the refs a bit....but he did make a lot of dumb plays too. I think the NBA wanted a game 7 lol.

    Maybe but you have to adapt to the way the refs are calling it too. Like you said he made a lot of dumb plays...if the refs are calling reach ins all night, and they did for both sides, then you gotta stop reaching. Steph had at least 3 reach in fouls calls on him

    Its also lazy defense. GS normally plays much better on ball defense than they have. They flat out look tired.
