    Iggy maybe? is the only one physically capable of taking Lebron, and he's never really been too good at actually doing it. There is no Kawhi on the Warriors team.

    We will see....Lebron has not been shooting well these playoffs...if his shooting is still off, Iggy will be enough to contain him somewhat

    Who guarded Harden well? he was turning over everything he touched today and pretty much did as he pleased before that. Lebron is a far greater athletic test than anyone else, but if lebron continues to shoot bricks, sure it won't go too well, but that's not magic defense.

    I have a baad feeling that this could end up being like 2014 Finals all over again with the Warriors being Spurs 2.0. I feel like they're going to explode even more so with their 3pt shooting.

    Lebron has also been terrible outside the paint, despite his good numbers. Kerr will force him to play like Pop did daring him to shoot, and I don't like their chances. Plus Kyrie is banged up and won't be able to guard a soul out there.

    Warriors in 5 :(

    Warriors in 5.

    I only picked the Rockets and the Warriors before the playoff, not that far off:)
    Rockets in 5 vs. Mavs.
    Rockets in 6 vs. Clippers.

    Warriors in 4 vs. NO
    Warriors in 4 vs. Memphis
    Warriors in 5 vs. Rockets.

    Both teams will collectively suck and in the end they will call for a truce and there will be no champion in 2015.

    There will be no more hunger, no more sadness, no more tragedies, no more illnesses. Everyone will be happy.

    Assuming Ariza didn't permanently scramble the brains of both Splash Bros., Warriors in 6.

    NBA fans are weird. You'd think LeBron had raped 40 underaged virgins, fought dogs, and raided money from a charitable organization. Now, he's becoming a sweetheart.


    Step Curry is becoming the most "beloved" NBA player among the general population, but to some NBA fans he's the 2nd coming of . . . Justin Beiber. A player that would be a mere above-average player, during the great 80s and 90s.

    Really hope Cleveland win - don't think they will. Just hope Kyrie is healthy enough to go

    I hope it's a good series. I could see the Warriors breaking Lebron's spirit like the Spurs did last year.

    Game one will be crucial for the Cavs, a blowout at Oracle would confirm what everyone thought, the Warriors are too deep and have too much firepower.

    Warriors in 5-6 but I'm rooting for the Cavs with that story book season where LBJ comes home and brings Cleveland their first sports championship in 50 years.

    Do you think Klay will be able to play game 1 even though he has a concussion?

    I'd rather Cleveland win because I hate the Warrior (or maybe I just hate their fans more), but honestly, Golden State in 4 or 5, I don't see this being close
