Lucky Dog Hot Sauce said:I've said dubs in 5 since they made the finals, but after seeing these two games, could be a sweep.
All the preseason talk about how the dubs got lucky since Cavs didn't have Irving or Love.
Then they won 73 and everyone all like, "yeah, but Cavs swept through the playoffs! They're rested! They're at full strength!"
East = tissue paper soft. I'm talking 3-ply quilted.
Wake up call.
If OKC had made it, it would be the same result. Cavs are overrated - James is good, but he's not what he was, and while everyone's so busy calling the dubs a "jump shooting team" they don't seem to notice what a great inside game they have and how good they are on defense.
And that bench - dubs bench would be a 3 or 4 seed in the East. True story.
Its not even close and supposedly the cavs have all their guns and are healthy this year as the media put a big * on the Warriors championship last year due to the cavs injuries. Well let me tell you the Warriors have something to prove to the world not themselves. They know who they are and what they can do to adjust to any team in the NBA to overcome adversity. They are the real deal and those 73 wins were not accidents. The cavs have not faced this kind of defense in the east and it shows in these finals.
OKC would beat the cavs
Portland would beat them
Spurs would beat them
And maybe another team or two as well.
JayT said:I think the Cavs will rally at home and maybe get a game, but if they don't get the next one, I agree. Its's over.
The Warriors will come out like its game 7 when they play on Wednesday. And we have yet to see Curry and Klay put on a shooting display in the finals. If they come out hitting shots Wednesday it might even get uglier for the cavs.
