POLL If the Warriors somehow don't win the championship, what will be the reason?

[Shanemansj13]

Too cocky or KD will fall apart. The funny thing is he could choke and llay terrible and they could still win it.

Obviously, like last year the REAL reason could possibly be LEBRON JAMES

It's a non zero chance LeBron somehow wills it to happen. Very low, but not zero. And as I said, if he does, he's at least Jordan's equal and there's no arguing that.

Why would a cavs fan make this thread? You guys won it all last year. Let's not act like you guys aren't a favorite to win it all

you wish. ALL the pressure is on Golden St for the 3rd straight year. You know they are actually giving the Celtics, Spurs and Rockets a better chance to win it all now lol

I can agree that he will be at MJ's level but the worst thing you can do is doubt The King. The 3-1 comeback changed everything. I think a team that has the same great outside shooting as thd Warriors can challenge them. That's why I said the Rockets could and obviously the Cavs but the Rockets dont have Lebron James, he is playing the best ball of his career without a doubt. But nobody has had a team like the Warriors with a super stacked team and 2 top 3 players.

That's my point, obviously LeBron is the best, but the Warriors needed to assemble a superteam. So they did, and it will probably work. I'm not doubting anyone, it's just a fact that the Warriors put together a team that no one player can defeat. Switch out LeBron for MJ and the Warriors still win.

Oddsmakers say they are like 70-80% favorites right now (in the second round) to win it all.

By the Finals they will be 90% favorites to win.

ALL THE PRESSURE IS ON THE CAVS

If the Warriors somehow don't win the championship, what will the reason be?

Because they lost?

The way to do that joke is "Because the other team won more games" LOL

Was trying to dumb it down for the Cavs fans.

James is the only threat to GS.

I went with potato salad. All a team has to do is leave about 4 pounds of it out in the hot sun for about 6 hours, then slip it into the Warriors next team meal...series over.

 

[tlance]

Damn.

That is exactly what would prevent GS from winning.

Injury to Draymond. Most important and irreplaceable player on the roster.

 

[wildturkey]

Russian interference

Mayo gets a bad rap, the thought of facing James has likely caused some pre-game butt spewing.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

i would of added "Durant choking" to the list- as that would have been easily my 2nd or 3rd option behind LeBron.

How about another proposed bet?
Ill take Durant as Finals MVP over James if they both end up there.
You in?

Favorite? The Cavs are a definitely a legitimate contender, and I actually quite like their chances.

But there is no doubt who the favorite is.

Now Lebron would at Jordan's level all of a sudden. Jordan is undefeated in nba finals. Lebron would be what batting .500?? Try again

There's little chance Lebron beats a warriors team at full strength anyways. Warriors are even better this year than last. They are just pacing themselves better this year for the long haul instead of going all out vs crappier teams

Exactly why it is silly to talk about Finals record.

What matters is championships won, not Finals lost. It is literally insane to say or imply a loss to GS this year would somehow diminish LeBron's legacy. It is equally foolish to suggest losses in 2015 or 2007 were anything but feathers in LeBron's cap. He almost won Finals' MVP on a losing team in 2015 for crying out loud!

The obvious answer is Donald Trump, because he hates California and wants to hasten their secession fron the union.
