    Cavs in 6. GS wins game 2 at home, game 5 at home to extend the series, Cavs finish it up in Cleveland in game 6.

    Just too much Lebron!

    Yeah, they are capable but will likely fail.

    Lebron is pretty much a more mature and bigger Harden. Just like Harden he can have 10 assist games. Just like Harden he goes hot/cold with his outside shot...unlike Harden though he's a lot more mature.

    He understands when his team needs him and when they do not. Something I don't think Harden gets yet.

    Also, he's an athletic freak of nature which Harden just isn't.

    Cavs will be the hardest match-up for Warriors. Warriors have no answer for the best player in the world..maybe I'm biased but I'm going with Warriors in 7.

    Face it, folks, the Warriors are just better at NBA than the Cavs.

    GSW in 5.

    I will root for the Cavs because I think they are clearly the underdogs. This GS team is historically good.

    of course. but one man isn't going to beat this gsw team. they have way to many weapons and put up too many points. I'm not relying on jr smith and shumpert to win an nba title.

    Warriors in 6. I don't even know how healthy Kyrie is, but if he's out for a game or two the Cavs have no chance in hell.

    Warriors in 6. Cavs in 6 if they had a real coach and Kyrie was 100%. Right now LeBron is orchestrating everything. That isn't going to work against an elite team from the west.

    GSW fans are insufferable. Go Cavs

    Can't wait to watch LBJ blow by Draymond on every possession and stuff it down his throat.

    Folks are saying the Warriors have a lot of defenders for LeBron? I just see a lot of dudes who will collect fouls. Not one of them is an elite defender that can contain him.

    green, barnes, klay, and iggy are all solid defenders. they don't need to be elite to give lebron trouble. again one person isn't going to beat this gsw team and im not counting on jr smith and shumpert to help win a title.

    Match Ups:
    Green Versus Thomas
    Thomas is tenacious and strong. Will the Refs reward Green for flopping? Will the Refs allow Green his little hits and grabs and irratations. That will be the difference here.

    Bogut versus Mosgov
    I think Mosgov is stronger but Bogut is more skilled

    LeBron versus Barnes - Nuff said

    Thompson versus Shumpert/Smith - interesting

    Kyrie Versus Curry - If Kyrie is hurt .. . long series for him. If not .. . he is fast and quick but those moving screens are going to kill him.
