Game 2 sucked.
Bron didn’t look sharp, although still played really well.
His bad passes early on were annoying to watch. But he gets fouled non stop when driving to the hoop and gets no calls. Unlike these flailing GS shooters, with their sweep thru and pump fake fouls for 3. I swear Harden and Steph don’t jump straight up and down, they kick their legs out forward hoping for the tangle fall-over foul call, which is usually good for 3+ pts with those guys.
Brons going hard to the hoop, bangin bodies down low, getting poked in the eye (bloody eye looked ugly, worse then I thought) constantly raked across the arms and still finishes. Thats probably why he doesn’t get them, because he beasts through contact and it doesn’t look like they touched him.
Either way they weren’t winning that game. Steph was hitting crazy 3s, some LaMelo Ball type of shots, and this is the NBA Finals, not AAU with your dad as the coach (shoutout to BBB) ha. Dont forget he won the MVP twice before KD forced himself onto the team.
I’ve seen enough from the Cavs in the first two games to believe the Cavs will win Game 3. Bron is ready for another 50 point night if he needs to. These BUMS on his team better show up at home at least. It’s pretty much a must win for the Cavs. With an L here, the sweep would be on it’s way.
Bron 50 point triple double and a W game 3?
Bold strategy Cotton, let’s see if it pays off.
