Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2740518, member: 488"] Cleveland has gotten absolutely nothing from the Smith/Korver platoon. 6 of 25 between them for the series. (I still think Korver should play more and Smith less). Hard to say LeBron was great tonight but also hard to say he wasn't great. Everything runs through him. Even the plays he's not assisting on, he's racking up hockey assists. Defensively and on the boards his impact isn't what it could be if he played less minutes. If there's a path for Cleveland to get back into this series, it's on the offensive glass. 34 offensive rebounds in two games compared to 11 for Golden State (some of that is the Warriors hitting more shots, but it's still an enormous number). We know Golden State has better players across the board, but that's a really small margin for error. I'm still really bitter about game one. This series is closer than I thought heading in, but down 2-0, it probably doesn't matter. If it's 1-1 heading back to Cleveland, with Iguodala's return looking less likely, and something being off about Golden State compared to last year, you have a chance. [/QUOTE]
