RULE #1: Never talk to #Kings fans about rigged games or crooked officials....ever

fill me in here. I turned the game off with 3 minutes to go...

if lebron is truly great this is his chance. game 7 in oakland. it will take all his offensive will and might to carry his team to a ring, but this is all on him now

well if he has another performance like he did in the last two and they get the title, his legacy will be cemented.

Referencing Ayesha Curry's tweet about the game being rigged.

NOTE: In case you didn't know, she's Steph Curry's wife.

If you ever wondered if a spouse of a pro athlete could defame the pro sports league of the other, this is for you:

Now I'm trying to imagine Brenda Warner, if Twitter had been hot in these streets, when Kurt Warner was in his prime.

Bron just followed up 41-16-7-3-3 with 41-11-8-4-3.

Steph Curry is the pretty little show pony. Lebron James is the grizzled war horse who just puts his head down and gets the job done.

I think Steph will be suspended for Game 7. #NbaFinals

Suspend the unanimous MVP for a winner-take-all Game 7 of the NBA Finals? Silver doesn't have the balls.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Lebron stepped up big time again, Curry had a good game but ultimately the Cavs played better defense and the Warriors missed enough shots to lose it.

Currys wife should not have her panties in a bunch, he committed some silly fouls. Curry is always reaching so that's what he gets. Also, the ref didn't make Curry absolutely lose it at the end, that's on him. No excuses. Should make for an interesting game 7. Cavs have the momentum and maybe more importantly, Lebron is having his way out there. No Bogut means no rim protection. Small ball is cute, but Thompson is killing them on the glass.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Curry's wife throwing out that barb was not smart. Her husband will be fined for throwing his mouth piece hitting a fan in his outburst after fouling out. Just about about any other player would also be facing possible game 7 suspension. Now if Curry is suspended - THAT WOULD BE CONSPIRACY!

 

[dude12]

Not sure what is more entertaining....the Cavs grinding there way back to force a game 7 or the whining from the Warriors fans/wives.

I think Bogut's presence here is severely showing now

fine him and move on

I just can't choose between the two. And luckily, as a Kings fan watching this, I don't have to. Both are priceless.

 

[dude12]

Epic meltdown by Curry....weren't these the same Warriors who were making fun of the Cavs earlier and popping off about LeBron getting his feelings hurt?

 

[VF21]

Uh oh. Looks like Steve Kerr is going to get fined, too, based on what he just said about the officials daring to foul out the MVP of the league.

Kerr says he's happy Curry threw his mouthpiece...and he (Kerr) continues to badmouth the officiating.

What whiny little beeatches.

 

[VF21]

Curry threw a piece of equipment that struck a fan. Isn't that an automatic suspension?

 

[dude12]

Warriors better hope that Iguodala's back gets healthy by Sunday night. Not sure they can without him and Bogut. Please refs, please continue to call the game the same way. Let them play.

 

[Sac.Kings]

Just to make it known, each team was whistled for 25 fouls and the free throw discrepancy was just 3, in favor of the cavs. No real issue there imo, bad calls happened all around. At the end, there wasn't a huge difference.

That would be epic.

Kerr is acting as though Steph Curry "the MVP of the whole league" is immune to silly things like disciplinary action for throwing his mouthpiece. He keeps talking and he's going to force Adam Silver into doing the one thing I'm sure Silver does not want to do... and every fibre of my being wants it to happen just to shut up Steve Kerr.

I think the refs have called the games fairly consistently.....they are letting them play with contact and that favors the Cavs. Curry got called for reach ins as did others.

I'll take "Are you freaking kidding me" for 1000, Alex...

Police racial profiled my father and told him to remove credentials and tried to arrest him. It's been a long night for me. I apologize:

And when the game clock hit zero, we thought the entertainment was done for the night.

Great work from Kevin Love tonight

Steph Curry's mouthpiece hit Andrew Forbes, son of Cavs minority owner Nate Forbes, on the shoulder. Curry apologized.

 

[VF21]

Ch. 10 is teasing that Steph Curry should be at the mic after the break. This could get ... interesting.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I'm hearing that Ayesha Curry has deleted all of her gametime tweets, and posted an apology. I'm guessing that someone was on the receiving end of an uncomfortable phone call. I just don't know whether the phone call came from Adam Silver or Kevin Plank?

So who's whining now? Any sympathy I MIGHT have had for GSW is long gone. Suck it up, buttercup. This is the NBA.

As a Kings fan I can tell you, the day you accept basketball as money driven ENTERTAINMENT and not sport, the easier your life will be.

 

[VF21]

Darn. They ran out of time before they showed Curry...

 

[New Era]

There is zero chance the NBA is suspending Curry for Game 7. Of course, if this was the regular season, he would sit a game for nailing a fan with his mouthpiece and failing to leave the court in a timely manner.

The NBA has been exposed in these playoffs.
