    The Cavs are the best under dog ever. Golden State is going for their third* straight title. The Cavs know if they lose that's how it will be written.

    I don't have much use for we would have won bullshit. YOU BLEW A 3-1 LEAD YOU FUCKING IDIOTS.

    The Warriors' owner is talking shit. Green is talking about destroying the Cavs.

    Golden State will win the first game by 30 then lose 4 straight as Durrant chokes again against James.

    disagree
    I see your disagree and raise you a disagree you idiot
    Christ.

    I don't know a single person that is a basketball purist that doesn't love watching Golden State play ...

    They move the ball consistently ...

    Their off the ball movement is spectacular ...

    They routinely show that they play for each other and put team accomplishments above individual stats ...

    As Pop said after the Western Finals, what the Warriors don't get credit for is how good defensively they are ... when they lock in defensively and mirror that with their elite offensive game it's as pure of basketball as you get ...

    If you want to get critical with the way the Warriors play it's that every once in a while they (Curry in particular) will take some 3's that in an ideal world aren't the best of shots ... but it's part of their game and nobody looks sideways about it ...

    Forget any BS reason as to why KD went to the Warriors and particularly the narrative about chasing a ring ... he went to GS because of the unselfishness and team atmosphere that is inline with how he views the game (go listen/read any interview before/during the season) and the antithesis of what OKC was ...

    GS pissed away the Finals last year and they know it ... the Cavs to me look like a Sark type team in that they are great front runners but sometimes can get a little ragged when they get punched in the mouth. GS is by far the better defensive team. The only thing that the Cavs do better defensively than GS is play more physical (helped them big time last year in the Finals) ... I suspect that this will be in an issue in this year's Finals. GS has multiple people that can at least compete against LBJ ... which is a huge aspect to slowing down the Cavs from just getting whatever they want when teams can't.

    I'd be very surprised if the Warriors didn't win this series in at most 5 games.

    Shove your "purist" bullshit up your cunt Tequilla.

    Except his points are absolutely correct. I'd say Dubs in 6 but wouldn't be surprised at all with either a sweep or 5 game series.
