Game 6 AND US v Ecuador at pretty much the same time tonight. Should be a fun night.

Call me a homer but there is no way in hell that 2nd foul was on Curry that's a charge. he was in front and James lowered the shoulder and knocked him down. its' either a no call or a charge you can't call that a block.

Great start again by cleveland and Warriors can't make a shot.

Looks like we get a game 7

wow. not sure what was worse the shooting again by Barnes or Ezeli's total inability to play offense. Ezeli singlehandedly blew 8 points by either not catching the ball, passing up a layup, or missing a point blank putback.

If it goes to game 7 all the pressure goes onto the Warriors to avoid being the first to blow a 3-1 lead in the finals.

Is it just me, or has this Finals been more about one of the teams laying a big turd rather than both playing their best?

This isn't going to wipe the Celtics-Lakers Finals from anyone's memory.

Iggy clearly not right you wonder how much he's going to be able to do tonight with that back.

At least they're scoring now and a couple of iffy calls got the Warriors into the bonus early.

Klay Thompson has been awful too.

Part of that IMO is how the games have been called. it's hard to get fluid offense when they allow so much contact.

And part of it has been the Warriors have been terrible in 2 of the 3 games in Cleveland.

And LeBron and Kyrie have been remarkable the last 2 games.

end of the half doomed the Warriors let it go from 11 to 16.

The way this game is going the Warriors might want to experiment with Barbosa and Curry together in the 2nd half. Curry is -4 and Barbosa is + 10. All the other Warrior starters are -13 or worse, Klay -21.

Livingston had a really poor half off the bench I'd be really tempted to play Barbosa but I'm not sure they can defend THAT small.

The Cavaliers have made the Warriors even a more-so outside shooting team. They especially look bad when they are missing outside shots. Henderson Barnes is losing FA value and Thompson's shooting is off so far tonight. The Cavaliers have been so physical with the Warriors.

Still it is a fun game to watch.

Barnes costing himself millions with his play the last 2 games.

2-22 in the last 2 games

Not for a Warriors fan. Ordinarily I'd say ok game 7 is at home but all the pressure will be on them to not blow a 3-1 lead. Plus very concerned about Iggy he's so important defensively and he is clearly struggling with that back.

Frankly I'd sit him now to rest but Barnes has been so bad you really can't unless as I said you go with Klay, Steph and Barbosa together.

Cavs have made the Warriors look old, tired, slow and a turn-over machine... Aside from Steph, nobody on the Warriors is able to make a shot. Not sure how much Bogut being gone is playing a role in this tonight?? But wow - Cavs total and complete domination...

take away the end of the 2nd and the start of the 3rd and the warriors would actually be ahead.

Great last 2 minutes hope they can keep it rolling but seems unlikely

Steph can't lose his cool like that and get kicked out but that was not a foul, LeBron walked after Curry poked the ball away and leBron got it back.

Curry totally overreacted I think he was still mad about LeBron blocking his shot and woofing at him but horrible call.

All the pressure on teh Warriors now

I stand corrected on LeBron's end of prime. He's been absolutely FEROCIOUS this series.

The officials have been a freaking joke the last few games! Absolutely atrocious heavily favoring and helping Cleveland, and people wonder why the NBA looks fixed.

LeBron went legend tonight.

However, GSW in 7. Have to think this team wakes up. It won't lose three in a row.

If I'm Kerr I'm taking whatever fine they throw at me and ripping the officials in my post game presser! Maybe we can get a properly officiated game 7 !

Seriously how do you foul out the MVP of the league in game six of the finals with only a few minutes left in a winnable game at that point, just an atrocity. He didn't foul out of a game all season but they find a way to get Cleveland a win total joke!
