Wild ending!!

Don't know what I'm more aghast at.  The overturning of the charging foul, though I believe they got it right.  I hate that when a player was into his shot, that a player could just tuck in where the player needs to land and draw a foul.  Anyways LeBron was so outside the smiley face, it shouldn't have been reviewed.

The JR Smith forgetting what the score was.  After an FT.  It's not like it was during the flow of the game.  Things were stopped before the FT.  Time enough to take stock of the situation.

Unbelievable.

Lebron is getting a trifle meaty in his old age, but the sixers ill take him

Games are spaced too far apart, this is ridiculous.

And too late for those of us who have to be “on” at 7:15 am.

The interest factor is not as strong for me on this series. I became fascinated with the C's playoff journey, and I was hyped for the rockets/gsw, but I'm not as into this final.

Once the C’s are out my interest level drops off. I mean, I keep my eyes out for great moments like the JR Smith debacle/LeBron reaction, but my already low personal investment drops to nearly nil.

The most relaxing way to watch a game. I refused to watch the iggs/vikes NFC championship game, but I couldn't resist the super bowl, even though it was sort of agonizing.

8-9:00 tip-off isn’t relaxing...my eyes are closing then on a school night. I can’t sleep in and I can’t be on autopilot if I’ve got a class.
My husband and kid are more invested, generally, in sports than I am. I’m take it or leave it 100% of the time.

Too many weapons.

Steph and Klay are cold.  KD lights it up.

Cavs really have one chance to avoid the sweep.

ABC needs to step up and let Doris Burke call the play-by-play

Actually I think the play-by-play is ok.  Mike Breen does a solid job.  I have a tough time with the color commentary.  I know Van Gundy knows the game, but it is really hard for me to listen to him.  He grates on me.  Mark Jackson brings nothing to the table.  Let her replace both of the ex-coaches (3 person booths usually don't work for me. Why do the networks cram them down our throat?).  She's being wasted on the sideline.  Just my opinion.

I agree she's being wasted; does she do color or play-by-play for NCAA broadcasts? I can't recall right now, it's been so long since March

I'm not sure either, though as she is a former player, I'd guess color.
