ITT: Finals Predictions

[ShawkFactory]

Either Warriors in 6 or Cavs in 7. The winner of game 6 will decide the series in my scenario.

[fragokota]

GSW in 5.

[TimmyDuncan]

Houston in 7 after being 0-3 in the finals

hope you got your bags packed because your ass is about to take a long vacation

You can think whatever you want. GS isn't a physical team, and they have no one that can slow LeBron down. Look at the numbers, Bron has shot over 50% against Green, Thompson, Igoudala, and Barnes in his NBA career. Not to mention I don't see who is keeping Cleveland's froncourt off the boards. Kyrie can't guard Curry, but Curry can't guard Kyrie either. The healthier he gets, the more chance GS has of winning dwindles.

I'm keeping a tally in the OP btw

[Springsteen]

Warriors in 7. I feel like Kevin Love really could've been used here.

[J Shuttlesworth]

As badly as I want the Cavs/LeBron to win, the Warriors are a historically good team at full strength facing the Cavs missing a star player, and another star player hobbled. I think it will be a competitive series but the better team will win. Oracle is such a huge home court advantage.

Warriors in 5

[J Shuttlesworth]

I am impressed there are this many people picking Cleveland though

[aj1987]

Cav's literally only have a chance if LeBron goes into MJ mode. His jumper has to fall some time, right?

[DFish24]

Warriors in 6. However if Kyrie returns close to his previous level before the injury I can see the Cavs winning in 6.

[brandonman]

3 teams left. Who you got?


I got Cleveland over GSW in 6.

They have the best player, finals experience, and they're on a roll after sweeping the #1 seed in the east without breaking a sweat, Coach Blatt is winner (won the euroleague championship last year). If Kyrie is somewhat healthy, I really like the Cavs chances tbh.




edit: I'll keep a tally as well

kevin love's injury is a blessing in disguise tbh, the emergence of TT..JR, JJ, Iman, defending and shooting at a high level, emergence of Dellavedova

i think cavs will be okay or competitive at least
