The people that will discredit them don't actually watch all the games or just don't like Lebron/Cavs

There are a lot of anti lebron people. I'd say 25% of the Curry bandwagon is comprised of them

Did Mark Jackson just make the dumbest point ever?

when the Warriors and Spurs were doing it, it was because those teams are awesome. When the Cavs have done it, it's bc the east sucks. People are going to rationalize their preconceived views anyway they can.


Exactly. These east teams aren't as good as The Spurs and OKC, but they're not the Brooklyn Nets either. The Cavs have been damn impressive so far.

His answer to, "have the Cavs been tested enough to win big in the finals" was...."yes, yes because the media has tested them."

Dewaybe Casey is proud that his team kept the Cavs to 7 3pts and basically said running them off the peremiter will still be a priority in game 2. Come on man, you just got slaughtered in the paint.

What's funny is no analysts is discounting the Cavs, it's the message board posters, casual fans, and LeBron haters

What are you expecting? Literally everyone picked the cavs to win the east. At no point this season was this prediction ever in jeopardy. There has been absolutely no storyline all season that didn't involve Cleveland winning the east. The only thing they are doing that is unusual is sweeping the series.

The challenge all season long has been whether or not they are good enough to beat GS/SA (now OKC). For better or worse that is the narrative. People are not discounting CLE in anyway.

I do not know the extent of his coaching acumen, but his rotations through the first 3 rounds have been extremely effective.

I guess it does not hurt either when Irving is actually playing like a number one selection and their subs (except Frye?) have playoff experience. James is James, and their role players have played their roles (Love, Smith, & Thompson). I am not a Cleveland fan, but I do enjoy watching quality basketball, which they have definitely provided this post-season.
