LeBron will be fine, Irving looks like he needed a run and will also be fine and Delly, well what can we say other than he is almost pushing into the Big3 category with the other two the way he is going.

;)

The Delly chant is a beautiful thing

I thought it was nice.

I was just noticing the Crowd Number at the Arena: 20.5 thousand.

I assumed the Crowd was bigger because of the noise!

And, who do they interview post game, Delly!!

First thing he says, hey mom and dad and the folks at home... Ya gotta love the kid, truly!

Apprently Delly playing clothing has been really taking off in the Cleveland store since this controversy and it barely used to move at all.

Atlanta were never in that game today. Probably one of the most one sided Playoffs for a long time.

Irving on a 25 minutes restriction but apparently is fine. No point risking him when you've got Delly backing him up and it's 3-0

Yeah there have been Delly chants and he scored.. 11 points? Thats pretty awesome.

Lol...this same Cleveland crowd were bagging Delly earlier in the year, now they love him!

Let's go Warriors!

Warriors very likely could sweep the NBA finals, but from a Delly point of view, with his body type skill set defintitely is over achieving and at the right time. Good on him, and Mills to that extent, lets not forget some of the huge shots he hit in LA during that series. Damn Even Bogut is staying healthy and being utilised superbly by Kerr.

I really scratch my head when I see Delly haters on Aussie Hoops pages.

I cannot understand the hate. No one says he is as good as Lebron. No one thinks he is at starting PG level in the NBA. We are celebrating his successes - which come at the surprise of most of the world, and due to his hard work and dedication - what the hell is wrong with these people?

The difference between Delly, and an NBL guard is WORK ETHIC. If Dellavedova were to never play another minute in the NBA, he is already a success story.

When people hate on guys like Delly, Mills, Bogut, it just makes me realise how little they know about the game of Basketball.

As the US olympic teams have proven, even the highest calibre teams need good role players. Not everybody can be a star. When international basketball became more sophisticated, they couldn't throw out 12 stars of any particular skill set and walk to a gold medal. They had to fill different niches in their team with different skill sets and abilities.

Same holds true for the NBA. You cannot have a team of 12 stars yet only one basketball. You need a guy who "Hustles like Delly" - and Australia should be glad we produced that. A guard heavy team needs a rim protector, rebounder and shot blocker - we produced that in Bogut. An aging team needs a spark off the bench, with speed and scoring ability - Mills. Hating on any of these guys - who are VERY GOOD ROLE PLAYERS simply belies a lack of knowledge of the game.

Yeah Delly is a perfect fit for the Cavs, plays his role and hustles like crazy. Doesn't care about stats, just getting players involved and winning games.
Needs to improve his FG % though :)
36% 3pt is fine but 36% over all is not good enough.
Hope he can work on that during the offseason.

If the Hawks had concentrated on using mismatches and not on Delly they would have put up a decent fight. I think they would have at least won game 3 with Horford playing the full game. Instead they rolled over and got demolished.
Getting distracted and having major brain-fades during a WCF is not a plan for success.

Great post GWB.

Appreciate people for what they've done, with what they've got.

I love that Australians are known for being team-first players. The current generation of Aussie NBA players are doing a great job of personifying that quality as well.
