Series Thread: NBA Finals: Warriors vs Cavaliers

[Montalban]

so who's counting them out? most people I know say they got 'em against the ropes, though...

Me. They won't win 4 out of 5 against this Warriors team.

I have bad news for Warriors fans. Every single time the Cavs and Warriors have met for a Game 2 in the
NBA Finals, the winner of the game has gone on to lose the series.

You mean the whole two times?

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Okay people when wiggy returns no making fun of him.

Agree. Assuming that as far as stats. KD and Lebron cancel each other out, you have Curry, Klay and Dray against Love and Kyrie as the top players. That gives the Warriors the advantage and the Warriors seem to have the better bench too.

I keep saying last year don't mean shit. finally I think a few are getting this message through their heads...

 

[Black Adam]

How much of this is the Durant effect, though? I think its fair to at least ask.

I don't know whether Curry was unhealthy last year or not... but two games playing next to Durant isn't going to convince me of much on the subject.

i'd agree with this to a point. how is being lined up along with KD going to hurt your cause...?

Warriors in 5. It will be awesome to see James' crybaby face. You know the one he breaks out when he doesn't get a call or he's preparing to blame a teammate for his own failure?

Nope, not familiar. LeBron has lost to the Warriors before, and this is what he had to say:

It's not that far fetched to me anymore. It is legit one game away. If they win game 3 then a sweep is likely IMO

totally agree. the Dubs win game 3 and it's a done deal in my mind...ESPECIALLY if it ends up being another blowout...

IMO the only thing that can help the Cavs get a game in this series is if GS slows themselves down. It could be due to them being complacent or just tired from the schedule. But from what we've seen so far I think they really want to put this away as quickly as possible.

Cavs better have their A game if they want to win 1 of these 2 next games.

fuck you, no promises...

with you one hunnid on this one. the Dubs do NOT want to play the Cavs game. that WILL get them beat if they try...

imo though I think the Dubs already know their game plan is working, and you don't change horses in the middle of a stream...

My inside sources have told me wiggy's currently in the SportsHoopla witness protection program.

No doubt but a sweep is very far fetched to me. Game 3 will tell it.

I agree - a sweep is far fetched, and if the Cavs go down 1-3 like last year, I just don't see them coming back and wining the next three straight again - The Warriors have Kevin Durant who is beginning to taste his first championship

 

[bksballer89]

Would the Warriors still have went after KD had they won the finals last year?

 

[True Lakers Fan]

Me. They won't win 4 out of 5 against this Warriors team.

- The difference is they have Kevin Durant for the times that Draymond and Klay Thompson fail to play good. Durant also provides the defense that the Warriors were missing last year

 

[Black Adam]

Would the Warriors still have went after KD had they won the finals last year?

gotta admit it IS a good question. i'd think no, but you never know a team's FO thought process...

 

[LAD]

Would the Warriors still have went after KD had they won the finals last year?

I think they do, but does KD consider joining them if the Thunder win the Western Conf. that year?

 

[msgkings322]

Probably not, so it's really Kyrie and LeBron's fault Durant is on the Warriors.

 

[bksballer89]

Probably not, so it's really Kyrie and LeBron's fault Durant is on the Warriors.

LOL that's exactly what I was getting at. All they had to do was wait one more year so Durant could sign a long term deal with OKC

 

[Black Adam]

Probably not, so it's really Kyrie and LeBron's fault Durant is on the Warriors.

tsk tsk...

you're not saying LeClown clowned himself...are you...?

Fuck that, I'm blaming Obama!
