[SlyPokerDog]

Go Lebrons, I guess.

Go LeBron.....

 

[DUB]

For the third straight season an Australian will win an NBA Championship.

For the fourth straight season an Australian will play in the NBA Finals.

I think it's pretty clear that we need an Aussie on the list if we want any success.

 

[Dubsfan]

Dubs. Cleveland is used to leading, but if they get behind, can they play to win? Warriors have proved that many times already.

 

[Trackjack]

Cleveland in 6 games.

Golden State is Trump, Cleveland is Hillary.

GS in 6

I'm a bit torn here. I don't really like either team, there's nobody in Cleveland who I truly dislike but at the same time there's no one I truly like (Irving is fine though and I admire LeBron). For Warriors the players I dislike are Green (a lot) and Bogut, I know Curry annoys a lot of people with his over the top celebrations but I don't mind him that much (can't blame someone for being overjoyed with a victory, I reckon it's an honest reaction) and I definitely admire him, Thompson I am actually on the verge of liking, their bench players are fine too (I like Livingston).

I think I'm going to cheer for Cleveland because of Draymond.

Can't forget this one...

NO MORE RINGS FOR LEBRON

 

[illmatic99]

I see this being one of the best finals in recent memory.

Excited for the games to start.

 

[Orion Bailey]

Seriously? Cavs in 6? Your smart. I know this because its what I predicted as well.

 

[Shaboid]

I'm predicting Green bites LeBrons ear off in round.. errr game 6.

 

[Chris Craig]

Cavs in 6....go Lebron go

 

[Daweez04]

The jackass in me wants Cleveland to lose, just so Cleveland keeps losing. For some reason I find it funny.

But, after Green's jackassery this playoffs, I really don't want him to get another ring.

I have a soft spot for cleveland. They are a small market team like us. You know most cleveland fans, unless they are lebron fans only, are die hards born and bred.

Rooting against them imo would be loke someone rooting against portland.

I do enjoy watching the West dominate though. When Miami won those years the media tried to make a case for the East....but there was no comparison.

Fuck the west! The "other 14" can eat my ass.

I would think that would be logical.

You sound like me when people say I should root for other pac 12 teams....other than my Alma mater.

I hate the warriors, but I like that they are making x-nba players, and the media, look foolish when they disparage small ball.

Golden State is Trump, Cleveland is Hillary.

So the only honorable thing to do is to root for them both to lose?

Cleveland hasn't faced a team nearly as good as the Warriors in the playoffs so far. Dubs in 6.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Exactly. Who is the independent team in that scenario?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Golden State is Trump, Cleveland is Hillary.

With the Cavs having emerged as the only legitimate candidate out of a fractured group of weaklings with no legitimate challenger, while the Warriors survive a hard-fought battle with a vicious bulldog of an opponent, wouldn't the reverse of your statement be more fitting?

 

[Stevenson]

Dubs are overrated. They rely way to much on Steph bailing them out.

Yeah but at least they have a super star who can bail them out when needed. And it's not like Klay, Iguodala, and Green don't help out.

I would say that both teams are very deep. I think it is going 7.

 

[PDXFonz]

Cavs in 4 or 5.

Warriors can't play games when it comes to the King. 31.2 million!!! Silver isn't going to forget that number FAMS.

 

[riverman]

I actually want Mo Williams to get a ring of all the players in the finals...GO MO!!
