    Glad I haven't watched either of these games.

    GSW are too good. Too good.

    Too.

    This goes to five max. These teams are not on the same level.

    I don't know why I'm an idiot and picked Warriors in 7. It's either a sweep or a gentleman's sweep.

    Warriors in 6. I think Cleveland wins a couple at home but that's it.

    Starbury was a head case, but he was a better player than Kyrie.

    Agreed. If he had stayed in Minnesota and teamed with Garnett for ten years, he'd be much better remembered.

    Time for the NBA to cash in on that Draymond Green technical/suspension to try to get this series to look competitive. They may have to do it twice.

    I just don't see it at this point. You know Thompson and/or Curry will have at least ONE dominant game on the road. They live for that, and they've had pedestrian games so far in this series, to put it gently.

    Green is only 6'7" and 230? He can defend pf and centers with that height and weight, super impressive.

    Unfortunately for us, we might be looking at a dynasty bro, especially if the Dubs are able to add a player here and there.

    They need a rim protector who can hit the free throws, so other teams cannot do hack a bogout trick on them.
