If kd stayed with OKC or went to another team, it would a really competive and good series with us against GSW. I think we would win in 6 or 7 but with KD it’s so tough. We would need to shoot perfectly, play perfect defense and just have luck on our side to even have a chance. We are really good, but it’s ridiculous how good GSW is
They're so good that I think the only series they actually need Steph and Draymond for is against us. They can roll through the rest of the league with just KD, Klay, and their bench.
To be fair the thread starter should have said there is a chance to have a generational team. They are on pace for the 3rd best record in the history of the league.
All we're witnessing is James Harden as a proven superstar being paired with another HoF PG. Dwert was a clown. Jerry Lin wasn't the underpaid PG Morey thought he was. What this generation has proven is that you can't win with just one proven superstar. We're already stretching that with two in the league of Big Three. James and CP3 doesn't guarantee ships, but it does make great regular seasons.
Even if we make the finals, cavs might be an even bigger hurdle, if IT can get it to work in Cle. Him and leborn might work out like CP and Jim, or maybe fail like what's happening at OKC...
They’re very good so far, and 25-4 is a great start. But there’s still a lot of season left. Don’t forget, the 93-94 Rockets started 22-1, and finished with “only” 58 wins. Not bad, and they did go on to win the championship. But I’d rather hold the “generational” talk until it’s earned.
Lebron is a very unselfish player so I can see that working. A lot like James has sacrificed with CP3
January 4th can't get here soon enough, want to destroy this team so bad. Can't be the best until you beat the best.
