No amount of nostalgia should take away the fact that this is the best team the NBA has ever seen.

The "best in [his] lifetime" is up for debate (not necessarily from me), but they are an all-time great team.

Ran through the regular season with 67 wins (Kevin Durant sat out extended time), currently undefeated in the playoffs (scoring differential is wild), have two all-time great shooters, have one of the best pure scorers to ever play (two, if you'd like to include Steph Curry), and have one of the better two-way players, right now, in the NBA.

Don't be an idiot. LeBron James is anything but a "loser."

Nice politics from Lue. If Cle loses, they lose to the best team ever. If they beat GS, it's a hell of a coaching job by Lue. He's feerolling.

... That's exactly what it is. Numbers point to GSW being an all-time great team. Whether they are the "best" is up for debate, but it would be a tremendous job by Ty Lue is Cleveland wins this series. Whether you want to give him or LBJ/Kyrie credit is up to you.

Lakers would have went 16-0 if that midget Lue didn't get destroyed by Iverson. Dude is a clown

Lebron and company makes Lue/ Spoelstra look good just like Curry and company makes the likes of Kerr/ Brown/ Walton( last year) look good. Coaching becoming watered down other than Pop...

By any metric. By a substantial margin.

Barring injury or the basketball gods blowing stuff breezes at every shot attempt on their end of the court, GS is not losing this seried and I'll be shocked if it goes beyond 5 games.

Trading two for three's is not a winning proposition against the Warriors.

I don't know how you stop them when they are playing together. Which 28-1 in the last 29 says they are playing together.

One of the best teams I've ever seen. It's beautiful to watch at times, I have to admit

If they beat GS, a warrior suffered a major injury or 2.

Possibly. The Cavs did lose Bogut this year and that hurts.

Or the big men just simply can't keep up. I mean Durant is 6'9 running the floors on fastbreak.

You can't. You have to pick your poison and hope you can play almost literally mistake free for 48 minutes.

It's not fun if your team is on the receiving end of the poleaxing, but it's simply gorgeous basketball.
