I've knocked this guy a lot over the years, but right he's simply the best player on the court AND there's no close 2nd, none.

He's doing it all

and Kyrie Irving is not far behind

Hes on a level only he can be on right now. Also not sure why he's not getting doubled teamed. If I were Kerr I'd make smith, love, or shumpert beat me.

No real betting opinion on game 7. Liked GS for the series but now Bogut is out and Iggy looked pretty bad out there that changes a lot. I'm sure they will shoot him up with some stuff that none of us have ever heard of just in time for game 7 but defending LeBron not at 100% is no joke. Think GS -200 is probably what I would've had it at. Lower than the other GS home games given the injuries and how Cleveland is coming together.

Always tough to make lines when guys like Green and Iguodala (even Bogut) are hurt or limited, defense is so much tougher for oddsmakers to quantify than offense even though it is just as valuable.

GS is down to -183 on Pinny, opened -220...-5 as well

That's a strong move.

Been -280 and up for every playoff game with OKC/Cle until the Green suspension which they were like -250 IIRC.

Teams are 0-32 when down 3-1 in the finals. They won't beat Golden State at home. They won't beat Golden State 3 games in a row. They won't beat 0-32.

Golden State money line to the bank.

what if they're the better team right now?

most teams down 3-1 were not the better team

only 2 of the 32 forced a game 7

so they've already beaten a 2-30 trend, now they're playing against an 0-2 trend

Home teams also win at about an 80% clip in Game 7s.

That said, would not be surprised to see Cleveland win. Warriors best lineup may be small, but they still miss Bogut as a rim protector.

When his jumper is falling, u can forget about it. He hit some seriously contested clutch shots last night when the warriors were coming back. Think a lot of fans have wondered where this has been his career.

Total implosion by GS. And they have Green to thank for it.

He's not being double teamed but his Mom probably is.

He is the best player on the planet right now.

Also, you see why it is important to close a series out. Extend it in the early rounds and a guy like Green will pick up flagrant fouls he doesn't need to and get suspended. Don't close out cavs and suddenly Iggy has back issues ,,,, You are taking some real risks when you don't take care of business

Would you say the Spurs don't "play the game the way it should be?"

They are the epitome of unselfish team ball.

Well let's analyze this a little bit more. Although it is true what your saying but what about the 2 or 3 (can't remember) teams that made it to game 7 out of that stat, they are 0-2(3). Now the trending odds don't seem as bad for the Cavs. And their is a first time for everything...
