I just hope this year Lebron retires, If i was to bet on finals I would bet on goldent state, simply because it is 5 mvp's vs, 1 mvp, Lebron is getting old his back is starting to hurt from all of the carrying he has had to do for the past 10 years, I am going to root for Lebron because him and jordan are the only 2 people I have ever seen in Basketball that can beat another basketball team by themselves!!!!
Who wants to do a direct bet on me? Let's just have some fun.
Bet: Just a small amount of BTC0.01.
a) Im for Cleveland Cavaliers for +10 handicap.
b) Im Golden State Warriors but I will only received BTC0.005 if this team won.
Deadline: 11:59pm Saturday Forum time.
That just says your not a real fan of Cleveland for wanting a handicap.
I get it though because of the homecourt advantage and the crowd there is a non stop loud cheer.
I may take this but I dont want handicaps. I love how GSW is playing now with all the good rotation of players.
I will pass and will try to bet to others who is a real fan of Cleveland.
They are just hard to find and really in doubt. Maybe Game 3 they will have that strength to support Cleveland in betting games.
This is not about if you're a fan or not, it's all about gambling. So you have to find a way to have a better chance of winning. It is the decision a bettor would do whether or not he accept the offer or not.
Yes I got the same problem.
Even now, they have the home court advantage and yet they still want the handicap of +10.
The hell!!!
They dont trust Lebron James?
I thought they are fans but I am guessing they are just those who goes against the winning team. More like underdog fans but cannot bet directly.
There is no profit in this. I wish there will be new teams that will be fighting for the Finals and then maybe we can have some good gambling game. Just like 2008 Finals of Boston against Lakers. Big three vs the great Kobe. It cannot be predicted that easily and both have been a favorite team.
Or that 2011 NBA finals where Dallas have been the underdog and still won the series against the big three of Miami.
Dirk literally became a monster at that time.
Oh I remember that 2011 NBA finals and I got a decent profit back then although some didn't paid me whew. In that season, Miami's Big 3 was formed and there are lots of strong teams too aside from Miami Heat. During the finals, Dallas Mavericks not looked as the underdog because they destroyed Blazers (with prime LaMarcus Aldrdige and Brandon Roy) on 1st round, sweep Kobe Bryant and LA lakers in 2nd round and defeat the young and strong OKC in conference finals. Their season record is good.
But compare to that finals to the finals today, it's really unpredictable who will win so I put money on Mavericks. Hope things like that will happened again where finals is unpredictable. More gamblers = more opponents.

Who says Im a fan of Cavaliers
. There's no benefit for being a fan for me. Im a gambler as always and never did missed bets every year. Almost all are GSW fans so it's hard to find a direct bettor if I like to bet on Warriors. And you won't find a 100% straight same bet for Cavaliers even for a die hard fan during Game 1 and 2. Just looks at the odds outside cryptos.
Odds outside cryptos.
Series = + 2 for Cavaliers
Game 1 = GSW bettors offer a +12 handicap
Game 2 = GSW bettors offer a +8 (around 1.5 for rewards) to +12 (no increase on reward) handicap (due to Lebron 51 pts)
Game 3 = Didn't find any offer maybe later..
Range of bet in bitcoin value : BTC0.13 to BTC0.26
It's difficult to find a 100% straight same bet for Cavaliers even for a die hard fan during Game 1 and 2. And to add for that, sports betting sites offers a good odds for Cavaliers ML but in 100% straight bet (direct) it will be not worth to bet on Cavaliers since the reward will be the same even if they won.
I should lost last Game 2. The offer is +12 to Cavaliers with same rewards. Good thing I hesitate as I feel LeBron will not go all out. Good thing

Game 2 NBA final the battle again of the two power team in the world of basketball, i'm a cavalier's fanatic's but i analyst the situation of both team cav's have an star player lebron james but need to help of the other team mates to got win. for the warrior's all star player's of this team are helping to eah other with have good team communication during the game not only person they can contribute for the scoring unlike to in cav's only james need to hard work to got win.
Yeah it feels like only one player is doing all the work and overall warriors did play better than them , it can also be the home advantage but they seriously need to fix lot of things if they want to win the finals. I feel warriors might win this 4-0 Ok so Game 2 ended with another win from Golden State Warriors at 122 and Cavs at 103. No need for an over time today. On Game 3 I am guessing that Cavs will be again the one with the lower odds because of the winning streak of GSW but I think playing in the home court of Cavs will give them (Cavs) a better advantage. Why do I have a feeling that a repeat of GSW blowing a 3-1 lead again that happened in the 2016 finals?
I think that is very far from happening considering that the Warriors have already learned their lessons and will try to avoid that scenario once again. Dreymund Green is controlling himself now so he won't be suspended from a game because that is the main reason why the Cavaliers have climbed from that 3-1 hole.Kevin Love and George Hill was really contributing, but I don't know what happen to the rest of the team specially Kyle Korver. I don't know if coach Lue is really thinking that Korver is a liability in defense that's why his time is limited.
But I'm not surprised if Cavs bench started to play as a unit since the next game with will at their court. We all know how it really affected players mentality specially if they are playing at home. So its going to be a good game and James is going to explode as usual but watch how the other players contribute and cut this to 1-2 deficit.
It is like everytime the other players score double digits Cleveland win. That means the rotation is doing great.
Kyle Korver, JR Smith and Green will need to step up. They can also use Thomson for post up since it is a small line up for Golden State. It cannot be all Lebron. It is easy to defend when they have the same strategy over and over again.
They need new ones. Like Lebron is the one waiting at the three point line or cutting on the paint.
I dont see that kind of plays. It is always Lebron as the handler and then he will try to penetrate.
Smith is a guard, he must know how to make plays.

I think GSW plays better together there is no one on the time trying to outshine each other, they know how to keep their communication in line as oppose to expressing their frustration with each other on the court. It's given that they will have issues within the team but they do a better job with keeping it contained and they are more resilient when a team member makes a mistake. They all understand that they are high profile players and they deal with the power well.

Im not from cleveland nor am I really a cavalier fan, I do like lebron james though and watching Game 1 was probably the most frustrated I had been ever watching an NBA game.
The refs lopsided calls got more and more annoying then leading up to that overturned charge call that bailed GS out and kept them in the game was the pinnacle....fuck the missed free throw and JR blunder, none of that should of happened. The refs screwed the cavs out of game 1 and probably the series because of that.
I cant stand GS now, gloating around and celebrating after that win when their team is stacked anyways and the refs basically handed them the game is ridiculous.
If you are a fan of the Cavaliers or Warriors it is very hard not to be biased here. I think the blocking foul called on Lebron James against Durant is the right call because James has not established yet his position in my opinion. Game 1 is the best chance for the Cavs to won a game against the Warriors and they blew it. James should not criticize Smith for that lapse so that Smith will not be affected in the coming games.

In the heat of the game? James have every right to critized JR smith for what he did. We may have quote JR for that one "I thought we had the lead", meaning it was really his mistakes not knowing the scores that time. Who the fuck have mental lapses that one? every professional NBA player should not missed that one.
As for the referee, they just doing their job and I don't think that we should blame them as well. Its just the breaks of the game and unfortunately, it was a crucial time for refs to make that call, but totally not their fault to lost the Games, it was JR miscalculations.

They never should have reviewed it, he was outside the restricted area. It was a judgement call they overturned, it's like 50/50 some people say charge some people say no. But the ref initially called a charge, which should have stuck.
Then they missed several other calls where lebron was clearly fouled then gave KD calls where it was a clear strip, seemed to me like the refs were biased....
I just know if I was lebron I would be so pissed at the league, the dude has made the nba so much better over the years and they take a big dump on him at such a critical moment in a finals game.

GSW won again in Game 2. They dominated the whole game and didn't give the Cavs the chance to lead by many points. Curry made a record too for most 3 pt made in Finals history with 9.Now Game 3 will be at QLA. The Cavs are in the same situation as they are in the ECF against the Celtics. This is a must win game for the Cavs because if they lose here, there is a huge chance that it is over and GSW will win in 5 games. The Cavs will be more dominate because its their home court but lets see on Wednesday how they will play against this Warriors team. Solid Warriors
.That is what I was about to same. Remember they are down 0-2 against the Boston Celtics and they are all relax and even laughing during the post game interview.So we know how capable they are. Also the 1-3 deficit couple of years was still fresh in our memory so I don't count out Cavaliers though.
So lets see how Cavaliers will response this time. I know that its a different team and a powerhouse Golden State, but they have shown in Game 1 that they can pull a upset. And it looks like the debacle of the first game was over because they look really focus. However, Golden State was really too much on time and they gave Lebron a hard time.

Yes that is the different team and will be very far from Boston game.
Gsw will try to get a steal to win it at their homecourt. Even just one will be enough to make it happen.
It will a hard fight and they need the whole fans of Cleveland to support them until the end.
That is where they are good at. Homecourt advantage have been keys since the start of playoffs.
