why do people think this was a shocking loss/choke job?

the cavs were not up by much at all, we all know the warriors can go for 10pts in 2-3 minutes at any given moment, and the officiating was incredibly biased towards cleveland and they still couldn't get any separation

no team is "beating" the warriors unless you're up by 10+

its not a shocking loss, but its still brutal. Like i wasnt surprised my patriots came back to win the superbowl from 28-3, but it was brutal to lose in such a manner

Is this going to go down like the drive or the fumble? What would be the name of this?

its nowhere near name worthy, losing when you are only up by a few is an incredibly common occurrence? the context sucks but its a thing that happens all the time

if you think the spurs are capped out, you should look at cleveland

In fact, TT not working is basically destroying the Cavs gameplan, they needed him on offensive boards to stretch possessions in the worst way

Cavs did get unlucky at the end but that's why you gotta hit your shots early in the game to get a bigger buffer. Korver and the bench guys were getting open corner 3s all game long and couldn't finish. Kevin Love got blocked by the rim and they forgot to play transition D.
Maybe they did this last year too but this years Cavs team just seems less consistent at everything. Especially on D, the team just forgets what it's doing for these 90 seconds spurts a few times a quarter and against the Warriors it's automatic

these cavs teams have had some real nice 3pt scoring benches, this year the most of all but theyve seemed to regress every year in the finals. lots of that is cause the warriors dont generally make the same mistakes on d the eastern playoff dudes do, and they close out so well. but still its been pretty brutal year after year watching good 3pt shooters suddenly decide the finals was the time to Brick Every Single Shot.

but yeah they need TT to be the dominant rebounder and switching big man he is but its not in the cards it seems rip
