Game 5 Preview and Live Thread

Tom: They’re a talented team capable of individual brilliance at times and they have a lot of good 3-point shooters. They’re fundamentally flawed defensively in both personnel and effort but often times it matters not, as they are so prolific offensively and they clean up the glass very well, limiting second chance opportunities for opponents. They can dictate the pace and have the ability to play different styles very easily. They are uneven because they feature two guys, Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love that seem to play more like X-factors than superstars in that they can make such a strong impact on the game as to be overwhelming.
