You think Cleveland would have won every game without Lebron?

I don't think winning those two series (without the league MVP for the most part) is why people are crowning the Warriors.

How does the Cavs winning streak reflect on Cleveland fans? The Cavs are the only Cleveland team I root for, and I despise the others, but Cleveland fans are great. Easily the one of the most dedicated sport fanbase despite their awful luck.

Obviously not, but this is the first series the Warriors have been tested by a competitive and healthy team, dating back to a year ago.

I'm not crowning anybody. I am a bit intrigued to see how believeland is going to frick up this great run though.

But the Cavs weren't the "greatest team in NBA history". They have been the most impressive team in the playoffs BY FAR

We're going to get the Warriors and Cavs, both relatively healthy in all likelihood. The system worked this year.

Warriors fans should want the Cavs to get there in top shape so their legacy as "greatest team in the universe" can be cemented.

Don't know why everyone gets their panties in a wad. Cleveland has beat everyone put in front of them so far and is playing great in the playoffs. Hopefully the Cavs and whoever comes out of the West (assume it will be GS) will be completely healthy and we get a good series for the Finals, where this will all be settled.

Yup. Whether it's OKC/CLE or GS/CLE, i'm just glad that we're getting an awesome matchup.

I do fear that many are focusing too much on the smaller playoff sample and GS could easily beat CLE in 5, but I certainly hope I'm wrong and we see a great series.

I see OKC-CLE as a great series going either way.

Have you watched Toronto this postseason? Their offense has been atrocious.

They always seem to have issues hacking it on the big stage.
And lol at Kyle Lowry these days btw (on AND off the court).

You kill me with this shite. Playoff sample is the only sample that matters in the post season.

So do the 2016 Spurs and the 2016 Thunder. If the regular season really meant that much, OKC wouldn't be in the WCF, sure enough wouldn't have won a game in the oracle, and the Clippers would have made it past round 1. Everyone starts a new season in the post season, regular season be damned.

For as much as you knight for LeBron, you'd think you would have figured out by now that the regular season is just a warmup for whatever team he is on.

It's also funny that you try to be cautious with your predictions so they wont come back and bite you and you can say "I told you so", but you've never said anything warranting an "I told you so". "Wouldn't be surprised to see Warriors in 5 if things go back to regular season play", well no shite but no one is playing like they played in the regular season except the Warriors. Just a beta move all around.

You can talk about regular season, any season. Golden State is better than Cleveland.

Again, you will point to the playoffs, then I'll show you 2012 San Antonio again to bring you back to reality to say that doesn't all mean very much.

The regular season doesn't mean very much to the teams who make it in the post season. I'm sorry you can't understand that.
