    Seriously . . . I think Warriors in 6
    The Kings CANNOT let this go 7 . . .. they won't win a game 7 IMO
    So I don't know if they can win in Golden State . . .
    So an uphill climb
    I suspect a upset with the Warriors going on
    BUT
    I'm GOING KINGS IN 6 . . . because I hate the Warriors

    It’d be a good series but golden state is more talented, I voted for the warriors in 7

    Rough to get the 3 seed and have to play the defending champs in the first round

    Defensively GSW probably can't have Curry guarding Fox and Heuter for foul and energy saving purposes. They may hide Steph on Harrison Barnes near a 3pt line.

    Kings in 6. Things going against the Kings: Warriors are healthy, Mike Brown vs Steve Kerr, Curry is easily the best player in the series, and the NBA would prefer the Warriors.

    really looking forward to this series…the drought is finally over

    I expect game 1 to be ROCKING…the cowbells will be nostalgic

    hopefully the moment isn’t too big for the Kings and they don’t embarrass themselves

    Warriors are a darkhorse contender and as a wise coach once said...never underestimate the heart of a champion. They are champs. They are getting Wiggins back. They won't be intimidated by Sactown at all and will probably win this in 6 or 7 on experience alone.

    And personally, I want it to happen. GSW v MEM in the 2nd round is too enticing.

    When was the last time Curry Foul out?
    IT will never happen . . ..so he can definitely hack up some players

    Sac might take game 1 on pure hype but this is going no longer than 6. Besides league isnt ready for the Warriors to be bounced out early. Yellow jerseys about to get the favorable calls in Sac. Funny how history repeats itself

    It's a very fast paced game so far.
