Why Cavs KNEW They Would Comeback From 3-1 vs. 2016 Warriors



Why Cavs KNEW They Would Comeback From 3-1 vs. 2016 Warriors

2016 year right you’re on the other side now of a 3-1 comeback MH you’re with Cleveland you guys are down 3-1 to the 73- win Golden State Warriors Steph and and clay and Draymond right even Iguodala great great team great team what was y’all belief system at that

Moment because you hear the stories Braun y’all took some money y’all put the money up in the ceiling said we going to come back for that was that during that that playoff run that that finals run talk to us about that mindset of battling back being down 31 where

People say it can’t be done and it won’t be done y’all facing that adversity that adversity um I was Ultra confident prior to that we were I think I want to in in the Conference Finals I had went over to T’s house and he was working on his

Scout but he was peeping like the Golden State and he was like I found a way how we going to beat go golden state I was like we a finished this one he’s like we locked into this but like I found how well we going to beat him he had his

Game plan starting his game plan for then for for Golden to State at that point in time and he broke it down into two things like um when Draymond is pushing the ball like his primary role is to find Shooters he doesn’t finish well at The Rim so that’s part of our

Game plan and how we gonna guard splits we do these two things we gonna beat them I’m trying to tell you we gonna beat them like all right cool so we get into that series and that was our game plan and we could look over the

Tape and see that like we would do it for 46 minutes and we’d be up and then that two-minute breakdown and then that’s how they win the game or we do it for 38 minutes and we were up and that that that was the brain that that those

Two game plan mistakes if we could do these two things the way we’re supposed to on top of what we do already we gonna win we GNA win so you got the ultra competitive Bron who like I told this story before though but like we were we were in we

Were in Golden State and we eat and we always eat dinner like as a just as a teammates before and Bron was like yeah I’ll be right back where you going Bron go to Four Seasons um health club and start getting on a versa climber like

Right before game is it five six like he go I gotta simulate my first quarter what like he come back sweating eat his meal like he was locked in yeah Kai on a whole another level like we we weren’t rattled because we knew it was Game Plan

Mistakes if you break it down on the film once we get those we just take it game by game game plan mistakes we get those done we got our first one and we we did it 48 minutes so then it’s like just just just watch and repeat like

Just just do it again and we we did it again didn’t I say this at the beginning of the show damn I said the beginning of the show that’s a fine yeah that’s a fine I thought it was off it out that’s locker room like when

Somebody phone go off in the middle of the game go right oh boy WTF it was such a good story too you got to get back into it no but it boil all the way down to just game plan like just you win one game all right let’s just do

It again and just take out all the noise that whole thing that I even said this to too before like the social media thing like when Brown go dark he don’t see all all the noise of what everybody’s saying or the numbers or like he’s dark he’s not watching the

News he’s not watching ESPN he dark to all that so it’s just basketball and what we got to get done and then Kai was playing at an alltime level Brown was P at alltime level our our complimentary players were all locked in and you just took one game in itself and then

Draymond got got kicked out the other one and we took another game and then at that point in time the momentum’s in your favor just trying not to lose they not trying to win they just trying not to lose and it got real shaky then you

Find yourself on Father’s Day At A 12:00 game in Golden State for the NBA Championship like it’s the it’s it’s you could never couldn’t scrip any better it was like the dopest thing in the world and their backs are against the wall because they’ve been down 3-1 like all

The momentum is in our favor we once you what you did what you’re supposed to made it 3-2 and I got it I got in I got in game six to be able to help because you know me as a teammate like I’m pointing things out defensively makes

Bron so dope as a um as a Defender I had to guard Bron a lot so I could give him things like they guarding you like this you just got to like get away won’t he would take that information implement it right there which is you’re taking the

The 15th man’s information and on the spot implemented it’s wild he so locked in like bro it just it just it it stuff you makeing movies about it was dope look the NBA season is in full swing and prize picks has you covered when it comes to helping you make some money

  1. As much as I enjoy these podcasts, can you please focus on your game instead? You've had a bunch of absolute shitters lately, and that shit is contagious. You lot have a legit shot at winning it all this year, but at the rate you're going you could get knocked out in the 1st round of the post.

    If by some miracle you see this, I hope you take it in the vein it is given – it ain't a hating.

  2. Aww all the Lebron fanboys coming together to celebrate one lone ring lol only to get that ass BEAT for the next two years !! 8-1 in two nba finals lmao 3 rings > 1 ring

  3. … Bro keep saying WE 🤣
    Dude played 2 mins, 5 mins , 5 mins , 1 min , 2mins ,2mins and 0 mins ..
    It was THEY , Them . . .

  4. warriors injuries just hurt them down the final stretch and the suspension but i mean they literally went up 3-1 dominating then xy&z happens it’s part of the game tho

  5. They came back because it was rigged. The NBA thrives on narratives and the Bron winning one in Cleveland was crucial. Steph was in on the fix, too. He was throwing behind the back passes OUT OF BOUNDS…and doing wild things he never did. He was promised it would be his turn, next…and it was. Sports are rigged. Too much money to not insure the most lucrative narrative becomes reality.

  6. That’s the weirdest serie in NBA History, game 7 was the only one close, games 1 to 6 were all blowouts.

    Seems like the coach who prepared better for each game whooped the other coach ass.

  7. What are the chances of that happening? A guy nicknamed King James wins by coming back 3-1 to win game 7 on the Original King James birthday. Not to mention the area code is 216 and it was 2016… oh and it was the 33rd time a team was down 3-1

  8. Why they never they would? Simple: Steph playing on a sprain mcl in his right knee he hurt round 1 game 4 was suppose to miss 6 weeks came back early in 3 weeks and hurt that same knee aggravated the injury more wcf game 7 he had to miss the Olympics that year because of this, Draymond suspended for game 5 and Andrew Bogut getting hurt that same game 5. And the Cavs still barely won in 7 by 4 or 5 points. And LeBron fans have lied to themselves for years saying they beat a healthy 73-9 team when they never could’ve if they were healthy. Oh well. GS won in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. I think they got the much better end of it

  9. When are you goiWhen are you going to bring James Harden to the podcast? Really eager to listen to my favorite player! Greetings from Uruguay.

  10. Stop it. Warriors were plagued with injuries. Bogut held Lebron 10 ppg below his average. Soon as he went down, lanes were open. Steph had a bad ankle and Iggy hurt his back and Draymond got a BS suspension.

  11. Kyrie gets plenty of credit that series.

    Middleton got little credit when he helped the bucks win. He had a 40 point game and averaged like 27 on great splits that series.
