[Beengay fudgepackers]

Warriors in 5. They could sweep but I think Lebron is good for one win.

 

[purguy12]

yes its here. man my bracket looks good in my pool. i got this on lock down. on my 1 bracket only one i got wrong was wash beating atlanta. they would of if they had wall. my homer sheet didnt look so great. Bulls vs Spurs on that one

 

[Shanemansj13]

Good, everyone is taking GS

 

[trojanfan12]

Yeah, I think it all finally catches up to the Cavs in this series. They've overcome a lot and it's damn impressive that they made it to the finals.

But, Warriors in 5.

 

[purguy12]

GS in 6

 

[Black Adam]

Good, everyone is taking GS

you expected otherwise...?

 

[Golden Spur]

GS says GS in 6.

 

[purguy12]

one postive for Cavs LBJ won last time he faced a team going to the Finals for the 1st time. everything leans towards GS. experience is important so u cant count out cavs and LBJ.

 

[Heatles84]

I'm going back to my roots. I won't predict a winner, but it's hard to go against the Dubs. Go Warriors!!!!

I like Golden St in 7 because Im an optimist. The pessimist sees a sweep

Sidenote - is Curry the anti Lebron in terms of millennial stereotypes?

 

[Black Adam]

Good, everyone is taking GS

'sides, you should have no fear. one o' y'all will pick the Cavs...

where's Wiggy...?

 

[trojanfan12]

That was supposed to say hasn't won a title since the '70's.

I postaculated prematurely or something.

Anyone know if there's ever been an NBA finals with 2 rookie head coaches before? Can't think of one off the top of my head.

where Wiggy...?

He's going through his Cliff notes, making his next 2500 word lists of potential excuses or, if the Cavs win, the reasons why--and how bright the future is for the next millennium.

Maybe now he'll finally admit that this season is/was probably their best chance.
The dance through the East can't ever be any easier.
James isn't getting any younger or better.


Anyway, Warriors open at 2.55-1 favorites, which is pretty strong considering how much cash is bet on James.

They said during the game.
It happened once.
The inaugural year of the league.
So in essence, this is the first time.
