I'm going Cavs in 6 because I have nothing to lose and will look smart if I'm right.

 

I'd go with CAVS just because LEBRON is a tank. Curry and Durant are so injury prone.

I'd be surprised if Cleveland won more than one game in this series.

Unless Durant or Curry get hurt, I agree.

There's definitely no reason for GSW to lose this series but I'm not counting out LeBron. I'm intrigued.

Golden State in four or five. Granted the regular seasons means nothing, but GS had a much better season and it's the Warriors' year.

Bet the house on GS in four or five, covering the spread in the wins.

Can't pick against Cleveland.

 

Going to say Cavs in 6 with Lebron averaging 35 a game.

Gonna be right near Oracle in Thursday, checked out ticket prices on a whim. Lol no.

 

Was fun being in the area last year when they lost. Lots of people got real quiet real quick.

Like I've said before, if LeBron slays this monster 2011 is erased and he's at no worse Co-Goat. That said, Warriors in 6.

Barring injuries or suspensions I wouldn't be surprised if the Warriors sweep. Most logical seems like Warriors in 5 though.

Whole lotta dunks and threes in an exciting first quarter

This is like watching an all star game. Awful defense, terrible shot selection.

I forgot to say that my comment wasn't meant as a shot at lebron. This warriors team is just ridiculously stacked. Only a few teams in history could play with them and lebron doesn't have the defenders on his team to help enough,

This is the finals the NBA deserves. The product is just so bad.

.... what a time?

This is honestly one of the games I thought the Cavs would steal...ya idk anymore.

Barring injury, I'll have to give major kudos to Lebron if he can win one game against this team in the finals.

This still stands for me. If he can win a game, I'll give mad respect.

Not gonna lie, if Durant played in the east over lebron I would probably be "shook" as a Jordan fan. Lebron is gross, and is easily top 10 of all time, but Durant in the finals has been crazy.

I think the refs will help Cleveland win a game, but I wouldn't be shocked if it was a sweep. People forget Curry was injured last year when these two teams met.

No doubt Lebron is "shook" after this play by Curry

The Cavs are shook.

 

What a time to be alive.

 

The NBA is doing well, but eventually you would have to think when your entire season and 80% of your playoffs are basically meaningless preseason games, just for financial purposes, it will catch up to you. These days, teams even admit it, sitting their stars more than ever.

Bosh declared to have a career ending injury and is waived by the Heat. For all those Bosh to Bulls rumors, I read finding a doctor to clear him would be a huge problem.

The NBA conducted the medical review and the NBAs doctor concluded he was done. At this point I don't think there is a second opinion. It's not like the Bulls with Eddy Curry where the Bulls doctors weren't cool with it, this is above them

That's too bad, I always liked Bosh.

And Iggy and Bogut.

 

This GSWs team is one of the most stacked teams I've ever seen, 86 Celtics, 87 Lakers and 96 Bulls included. A 73 win team adding a prime Durant, future HOFer, not fair for the rest of the league.

 

Barring injury, Warriors in 5.
