IF someone offered me a $1,000 if I picked the winner of the series I would have to go with Golden State. They have home court, and are healthy. I picked the Cavs in 6 in the two previous series- and would love to pick them again but as i said- Golden State is not going to have huge scoring droughts- and if Kyrie is not healthy the Cavs are prone to droughts here or there.

Months and months ago I said that the two teams that would be favored against the Cavs were the Warriors and Spurs- and now with the Cavs injury status Golden State is a fairly heavy favorite. I hope I am wrong and the Cavs pull it out- but unlike all the flip-floppers around here my story has been the same for months- I thought the CAvs would make the Finals and lose.




Fair enough.
I've never picked against the Cavs...until now, with my main reason being HC.
I feel this will be a very closely played series.

2-1 dog isn't really that big of a number.
It's very hard to beat James 4/7.
It's happened twice in his last 19'series.
If the Cavs leave GS tied 1-1 they have a great chance to win IMO.

James is 4/7 odds? What's golden states odds?

What happens to the fans that bought tickets? They have a scheduled date, what if they cant make it on the 2nd. They have a preset date, you cant just change it with 10's of 1,000's of fans buying tickets.

There is really not much a difference between Tuesday and Thursday
What fans. LOL u don't know who is in the Finals. They didn't know about Game 1 until GS won. LOL This is like the Super Bowl where it will be played at a neutral site. After GS won they make a date not 8-10 days from it. NBA change dates all the time when series are done. This would of been the same. What happen if Houston won GS fans would got their money back. Changing the date would of made no difference to the fans. Its common sense. It really is simple. If it was like the super bowl then yes u can't change the date. NBA is totally different. U don't know who will have game 1 and u don't know who will be in it.

Again, simple math: 27.6 > 27.2 OR 27.6 = 27.2... which is it?

Mind you, it was actually you that started this conversation by saying Harden was a "much better scorer". Whether it's marginally more or not, the statistics say otherwise.

There's that funny thing again, that you say I don't use: statistics.
LOL but its 27 points per game. Both scored 27 points per game. LOL why I dindt know Cleveland fans were so stupid. .4 means nothing in a series/Playoffs. Its really like maybe few more points overall points(plus Harden had to play more games.) More impressive that they had the same while doing it for a longer stretch. Overall both scored 27 points per game. doesn't matter how u look at its still 27pts(whole number a real number when scoring). LOL this is really funny coming from LBJ Homers. Both are great players and both scored 27 points a game. One in the west(tough path) and one in the East(weaker path).

Harden was a better scorer this year. That is why he finished 2nd in the MVP. Its not a knock on LBJ. Curry had a better year to. Just because LBJ was not #1 this year its not a big deal. no one is saying he sucks or he is done. Already posted all the facts go check a couple posts before. I can't help u guys anymore. Its sad to see people act like this.

First of all half the crowd is Cleveland they were already in. Then GS was up 3-1, lets be fucking honest everybody knew. They would never change the date it is preset for a reason, big deal that get a rest. It's not like your team made it anyway, so it doesnt matter lol.
There is no good reason to move the date up to Tuesday, no good reason at all :laugh3:

Purguy loses pretty much argument he gets into, does he know when to stop. He was proven wrong about the clutchness of Bron Bron and now he has lost the only sanity he had.

I guess that Bron clutch shot over Butler really tore him to pieces :pound:

James is 4/7 odds? What's golden states odds?


No.
I meant its proven to be difficult to beat James 4 games in a 7 game series.

Warriors are 2.50-1 to win the series.

I bet half of it is talk about the fucking Heat. Gets annoying.

The other half arguing who the Cavs will/wont sign this offseason... even though it's not the offseason. 4 wins to be had first.
