lakerevolution wrote:The Rematch . . and nobody's going to doubt LeBron, Kyrie and the squad. 7 straight Finals, there's no doubting LeBron will be considered a top-5 legend by most armchair NBA aficionados. The Warriors better not CHOKE this one -- they should be going for a Threepeat but jeeeezus what a choke job by both Durant with OKC and Steph & Co. for the Dubs. It'll be a good series. Warriors in 7.

Warriors do have the Big4 = Curry/Durant/Green/Thompson but Irving and Love aren't chopped liver for the Cavs, those guys are SuperStars IMO. Irving may be the best one on one player in the league. Love is playing like he did in Minnesota. Tough to bet against LeBron but It's tough to imagine the Warriors losing 2 years in a row with HCA and after adding Durant. That would be unreal. Here is how I think the series will go:
*Game 1 at Golden St - Warriors win by a big margin, make a statement = 108-94 Warriors!
*Game 2 at Golden St - Cavs win and the NBA get what they want, a competitive series, Cavs 97 Warriors 94. I think the series will have lower scores than most people think. Both teams will buckle down on Defense now.
*Game 3 at Cleveland - Warriors respond with huge win at Cleveland, Warriors 99 Cavs 95.
*Game 4 at Cleveland - Cavs tie the series, Cavs 97 Warriors 90.
As of now I have it 2-2, stay tuned for the rest of my picks,
*Game 5 is back at Golden St.

KobeMVP888 wrote:LeBron is once again proving that he doesn't make his teammates better. He needs his teammates to make him better. When he tries to take over games by himself, it doesn't work. He needs Killer Kyrie to be at his best, like tonight. Same way he needed Wade at his best. What knocks him out of the greatest discussion is that he's not a killer. He's a freak, no doubt, but he plays in the weak East, like Jordan did, but too many Finals series have looked like this.
