The keys are:

1. JR Smith can't play at all.

2. Mozgov, Thompson, Love have to dominate on the glass

3. Shumpert and Dellvadova have to be aggressive on offense and force Curry to play D

4. Kyrie has to average close to 30 ppg

Kyrie looked amazing tonight. He is able to create at so much on the court.

JR will play much better if Love and Kyrie aren't hurt.


Honestly the Warriors will be fricked if both teams make it there healthy

The key is Steph Curry's ankle. If that holds him back, the Cavs chances improve, although it would still be a tough series.

The Clippers are going to beat them. I'm more convinced than ever.

Best chance of any team in the L to knock them off. I don't think they'll do it though.

I didnt think anyone had a shot during the season. Something is telling me they can give them a series.

Had Love and Irving played last Finals, the Cavs would have won. Hell! Lebron almost did it himself. This year I don't know.

If love and Kyrie play in last years finals then the cave beat the Warriors last year.


Beat me to it

If James, Irving, and Love are 3 of the top 5 players in the series they can win

If Curry, Green, and Thompson are 3 of the top 5 players in the series the Dubs will win

Can? Yes. But it's very unlikely. And that's provided the Warriors make it past the Spurs, which isn't a given.

Sure they can. The odds though are very unlikely.

People hate LeBron, so it's cool to hate on the Cavs. Fact is they are a really good team and the Cavs gave the Warriors everything they wanted last year with two of their best players out. If you don't think Kyrie playing would have made a difference, you're high.

That said, the Warriors are better this year and imo the Cavs are not as good without Blatt. Even at full strength they would have their hands full. I definitely see them winning a couple in Cleveland, but they would have to play a near perfect series to pull it off IF the Warriors are healthy

This makes no sense

Mozgov shouldn't play at all if the Cavs want to have a chance
