The History Channel. I like it. Saw something on Alcatraz a while back. Relatives of the two brothers who escaped produced a photo taken 15yrs or so after the event claiming it was them at large in Argentina. Facial recognition technology suggested a 95% likelihood it was in fact them. The theory of how they escaped is that they got in the raft they made and then paddled around the island to the wharf where the guard boat launched from. Hooked on a rope and waited till the shift change at 6am and got towed in undetected to SF. Brilliant!

Tomorrow is a very very big day. Very big day. Let's get it dubs.
Klay Thompson almost singlehandedly got them this chance. After starting poorly, he just backed his talent and kept shooting the 3, as true champions do - the best long range shooting display in a clutch game I've ever seen. Outstanding!

I love Alcatraz, been there a couple of times & I'm a believer they made it to shore as well. Not having Foxtel usually means I usually can't see docos like that though!

I don't like the matchup for Cleveland. Going to be hard to give Love big minutes when GS has its small lineup in. Warriors in 5 or 6.

Netflix is a cheaper alternative and getting better with doco content. 'WWII in Colour' is great, if you're into war history also.

If LeBron can do what he did last year again, I feel CLE are going to be in it up to their eyeballs with better players around him this year.

Dubs in 6.

Reckon they might be a bit shaken up after the hard fought WCFs though, so the Cavs are my Game 1 tip.
