Anyone know how one would go about watching this in France? Is there a way to stream online?

What does everyone think? I don't see the Cavs losing at this point. It's a perfect storm between the "Believeland" special, Draymond suspension for Game 5, Lebron playing murder ball (like he should have all along), etc. Im putting it all on Cleveland.

I'm hoping that the fans boo LeBron everytime he touches the ball...like they did in game five. Turned him into a monster. We need to have a good start to the game.

I've been terrible at predicting things here. But I don't think the Warriors lose on their home court. They're mad, they've tweaked the refs like Lebron and Lue did before game 5, and that crowd is tough.

I think the Warriors get hot and win going away. But maybe that's just want I want to happen...

You don't see the Warriors winning Game 7 at home?

I don't think anyone can say one way or the other what will happen tonight.

...and if they come out missing it could get ugly. Just sayin'.

Yes and no. That's why it's best to be on your home court at this point.

Not trying to be combative. But coming out cold at home is way less damaging than if they did so in Cleveland. I just have a hard time believing that the better team will lose to Cleveland (with the best player, to be sure) at home in a game 7. There's a reason that no team has ever come back from 3-1 in the finals.

I think the Warriors win but I'm pulling hard for Cleveland. You know it's a big game when my team isn't even playing but I'm sitting here getting sports nervous.

Pretty sure Nike/NBA have the fix in for Clveland to win.

No way, come on. Lol

I don't think there's a fix. But I don't think the NBA felt bad that they had reason to suspend Draymond (and even though Lebron instigated the whole thing, I think the suspension was justifiable), which helped force a game 6 in Cleveland.

If they do they sure are going about it in a weird way. Multiple games this series where the refs are letting guys get mugged in the paint which definitely favors the jump shooting team. I'd say it's more likely that James and Irving got hot and some key members of the Warriors defensive personnel have gotten injured/hobbled.

They are going to let both teams play without calling many fouls. The whistles could be completely swallowed in the fourth quarter. You have to think that favors GSW considering Cleveland drives to the basket more.

Foul trouble has really crippled GS, especially last game.

I don't think the refs are biased. But I think they are naturally affected by coach speak and home crowds. That means that GS is due to get some calls.

I could totally see if GS wins, Lebron getting MVP as some sick consolation prize though.

First 8 minutes we should have a hint as to how the game will go. Can't keep spotting Cleveland the whole first quarter and play catch up, not their style. I'm worried the Cavs will keep going right at Curry, setting picks and forcing Curry to guard queen James. Cleveland will send their goons to bang Curry to get in his head. How much will the officials allow\see? Its hard to not pick the Cavs but I can't stand LBJ, WARRIORS BY 15.

EDIT*
Just thought of what would make a better story, the media\NBA desperately wants to root for Bron so I could see the game being manipulated. I'm so conflicted, confused, AND IM OUT OF BEER. Warriors by 1.

I think Cavs have been getting away with holding on D as it is, curry and klay are just never open.

I see the refs calling more on the holding the Cavs have been getting away with, and GS runs away with this.

The most annoying part of a Cavs win will be 20 something year olds crying and screaming about how they "waited their whole lives for this," while the middle aged men who suffered much longer will smile, take a drink of bourbon, and think "now it's the fucking Browns turn."

Man what's it like not being in your twenties? I think I feel all these emotions and have thoughts, feelings and experiences but your post helped remind me that I have not yet begun to live because there are older people than me.

I think you will see some middle aged men in Cleveland doing some pretty childish things if they win tonight.
