I’m glad I stayed up for the end of that one last night, because just reading about Stephen Curry’s blowup and ejection wouldn’t have done it justice, am I right? (Ditto reading about Craig Sager’s postgame interview with LeBron.) And much as I’ve been awaiting a Golden State win in this series, gosh help me I wanted the Cavs to force a Game Seven yesterday because, well, I wanted to watch a Game Seven. I don’t even think NBA Corporate needed its thumb on the controls last night; that was a dominating performace by Cleveland Inc. Whom do I root for now? I’ll let you know Monday.
Funny how in this series of great games the average margin of victory has been nearly 20 points, with no game being closer that a final score difference of 11. I think Sunday night’s game will change that stat (it damn well better!) and should provide for one of the great TV sports dramas of this century.
Just, you know, going out on a limb there.
