The controversial officiating in game 4 edit

It would be good to have a paragraph under the game 4 section to capture what is talked about by sports columnists as a game badly officiated. A couple of things to note is the number of free throws the Cavaliers shot in the first period. Also bad by any standard is the play where Kyrie Irving looses the ball into the back court and a violation is not called. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.142.72.248 (talk) 06:08, 13 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Needs reliable sources, plus the content should be written in a neutral point of view. And not giving undue weight to only one or two sports "columnists" blogging on pro-GSW fan sites. Suggestions are welcome. Zzyzx11 (talk) 10:46, 13 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Game 5 summary needs to be rewritten edit

The summary appears to contain sentences either pulled directly from or closely paraphrasing two sources:

  1. Nathan, Alec. "Kevin Durant, Warriors Beat Cavaliers in Game 5 to Win 2017 NBA Championship". Bleacher Report. Retrieved 2017-06-14.
  2. "Cavaliers vs. Warriors - Game Recap - June 12, 2017 - ESPN". ESPN.com. Retrieved 2017-06-14.

As a result, the section as it stands may constitute a copyright violation. Remember that all content submitted to Wikipedia must entirely be from your own words. I'll see what I can do to rewrite this, but I wanted to flag it and note it here first. Mz7 (talk) 15:46, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
