    Okay I got my prediction. I haven't watched much of either team in these playoffs but I've been following. From what I've been reading and hearing the Cavs are still playing terrible defense and the other Cavs haven't been particularly great except maybe Love. Kyrie has been pretty inefficient too. Even without all that I would still think GState is going to win. They have two of the best scorers in the league and their team plays great defense.

    So I'm going to say GState wins it in a sweep. If not then the Cavs will win just one game. But if that isn't correct I predict the Cavs will win 2 games. If that's not correct I predict the Cavs will win 3 games but it won't matter. The Cavs aren't going to win 4 games and when it's all over GState will win the 2017 championship.

    Lol. The only guy on Golden State whose been able to stop Lebron from winning a championship is Mike Brown. I don't know if that's a good thing for the Cavs or GState, but it is a thing.

    If Dubs win finals convincingly, then Kerr needs to be canned IMMEDIATELY and Mike Brown becomes the permanent HC

    mike brown aint exactly chuck daly on the bench, but honestly i dont see much of an edge with lue over him. lue hasnt shown me anything noteworthy as a coach to lead me to believe he is much more than a james' puppet.

    lets face it here, having kerr on the bench to offer in game strategy would be a definite upgrade. he can still be a factor with adjustments between the games if it gets late into the series. for whatever that is worth.

    Just to Show How IDIOTIC this "Sweep" Bullshit Is, REED Thinks Cleveland Takes Game 1...

    Regardless, it's just Great to Have Basketball Back...

    Layup drill vs an awful cleveland defense. The game would already be over if golden state hadnt missed a dozen layups

    KD breaking Brons ankles and dunking is going to be the image of game 1.

    it seems it will be difficult for the referees to control this series as they normally are able to do in recent nba finals. cleveland needs a slower paced game to have any chance. a more tightly officiated game with a lot of foul calls could benefit them. i still dont see much hope. they lost by 20 and golden state was missing a shitload of shots right at the rim in the first half. thompson shot like shit again. starting to question whether he is just a post season choke artist.

    You Gonna PRETEND Cleveland DIDN'T Miss MORE Shots @ the Rim than GS???...Cleveland was FINE w/the Pace, They Just Missed MORE Easy Shots than You're Claiming the Dubs Did...

    You Gonna PRETEND Tristan Thompson's NO SHOW Against Mediocre Bigs like Pachulia and JaVale McGee WASN'T Crucial???...GS POUNDED Cleveland on the Boards, Particularly in the 1st Half, Because Tristan KARDASHIAN was Getting Outplayed by SCRUBS...

    You Gonna PRETEND Low, Single Digit Turnovers is the NORM for the Dubs???...Pachulia Scoring Off of Falling Down, And-1 Put-backs???...

    All That Being Said, Your Boy Durant CLOWNED Tonight...Can't Front on his Performance @ All...

    But Don't Get it Twisted; Tonight was More About What Cleveland DIDN'T Do, Than What GS Actually DID...

    durant didnt play particularly well. he made a few shots in the second half. prior to that he was just coasting to the basket for easy dunks against a pathetic cleveland defense.

    I'm not a big basketball fan but I like the Warriors. War Curry! War Durant!

    Of course the warrior HAD to win that first game to stand a realistic shot at winning the series as a) it was at home and b) the Cavs get better as a series progresses. I didn't watch the second half but read the result this morning. From what I saw but Durant and Curry were on point ( particularly Durant).

    I don't want to see Lebron win it back to back. I'm tired of him....as great as he is.

    I hope it goes 7 games. Playoffs have been unusually anti-climactic this year outside of some of the earlier games with Boston. I want 1 really good series to finish it off.

    Rooting for the Warriors, but respect the Cavs.

    I'm glad both teams seem to be as healthy as they can possibly be at this time of the season.

    It kind of blows my minds that Lebron has already played in 213 Playoff games in his career. That's like an additional 3 seasons of wear on his body, minus a few games off a season.

    Tim Duncan and Derek Fisher have over 250 games each.

    When Lebron won last year...and started sobbing about how the last couple years have been tough on him etc... I got sick and tired of his black ass. I mean...dude has hundreds of millions of dollars in the bank and life has been hard on him? Get the fuck outta here!

    War Warriors!

    james is a legit guy. gotta give him credit for how he handles himself off the court. he really has built an empire. rather than relying on outside guys to help the business side of his career he put his friends through school so they could eventually take over those duties, which they have. he never gets in any trouble off the court and he has been under intense scrutiny since he was a fucking junior in high school.

    Kerr is planning to coach Sunday.

    If he didn't coach then Mike Brown would have become the permanent HC
