Want: GS in 7
What actually happens: Cleveland in 6 I just can't go against Lebron when he is playing this insane.

We are in for a treat I think either way between the trash talking that has been going down, the way last years series ended, and how hot both of these teams are.

Once he joined the Heat and my beloved Dwyane all bets were off!

We're either going to see the greatest team of all time or arguably the greatest player of all time, pretty cool time to be an NBA fan.

Stephen A Smith has picked the last 6 LeBron Finals winners wrong.

Stephen A Smith picked the Warriors to win this series. :o

Hopefully we get to see the greatest series of all time and it isn't a monumental letdown.

If it tops last season or the epic Heat-Spurs series, I'll take it, regardless of who wins.

Honestly though, how could it top last season?

7 games
3-1 comeback
Team wins a championship for the first time in 50+ years...

What more could you possibly ask for? I feel like it's destined to be a "letdown" at this point?

No one cares about this besides Cleveland and Cleveland fans.

Also, Durant is a new player to the mix and I look at it is as alright, the overall series is tied 1-1 with both teams winning one. This is the big one!

I think it's pretty funny the GS fans are wearing "We Believe" shirts. I mean is there a reason they shouldn't? Real bold stance

These second chance points are going to kill the Cavs.

GS sweeps?

And not guarding Durant on a 100% gimme dunk just makes zero sense to me.

If they get outscored in the paint this badly and defensive rebound I don't see them winning a game. I can't imagine some of these breakdowns are as bad after the half and in future games
