Its not just the playoffs, its the Finals

For the first time in 8 years no Lebron

For the first time in 4 years no Cleveland

Kawhi back for his third trip - 1 and 1 so far

The Warriors Big Three back for their 5th straight - the most in 50 years since the Celtics

Is four out of five greater than 6-0 over 8 years?

Is this the last ride for the Warriors or are more in play?

Can they FINISH for a three peat which hasn't happened since His Airness did it twice

Can Steph challenge MJ with a great series and a win?

Will Boogie make it back in time to help out?

Will KD ever win a ring? (not this year)

Raptors in 7

    Kawhi is a bad bad man.

    But Dubs will win in 6, more likely 5 - Kawhi is a bad bad bad bad man so they may sneak out another win.

    And fuck Drake.

    1) Different eras and hard to compare ... I think the standard for the Warriors is Jordan’s 6 in 8 years

    2) The Warriors will still be a title contender going forward as long as they have Steph + Klay + Dray for the next 2-3 years ... how they add around will be critical as a bunch of $$$ is about to come off the books

    3) Assuming a 3 peat here, what the Warriors have done the last 5 years is the best 5 year stretch in modern hoop (post expansion era) history

    4) A win here and I think you really have to start being realistic at Steph moving into the Top 15-20 of all time ... a few more titles and I can see a really favorable argument for Steph over Magic ... MJ is a completely different level

    5) If Boogie is able to get up to speed and give a good 15-20 minutes a game primarily in the 2nd unit that will be huge for the Warriors

    6) If KD goes to the Knicks as is 81+% likely then no

    Steph is already in the top 10.
