GSW because people are wrongly calling them the favorites when they are a 100:1 underdog in actuality.

The Cavs were the better team last season and they got way better and Golden State got worse. Cleveland is going to slaughter them in 5.

hoping for the warriors to be the first nba team to sweep. I'm from california and they were one of the first teams i followed when i got into basketball (before steph curry was a star mind you). They have the potential to do it with a full strength roster

>>76136198
I hate Green and Zaza and I can't stand Curry attitude. Doesn't care about the other dubs but I have sympathy for Thomson and McGee.
Also now that the Spurs are out, Lebron winning his 4th ring and closing up with Kobe is the only real matter of this final.

Draymond Green is the only player on the Warriors I can tolerate as a person. He's a dirty player and a trash talker, but at least that all translates on the court.

The others are pussies that don't deserve to talk shit.

>>76140296
This objectively true and only question by butthurt delusionals.

>>76140368
What about Currys attitude do you hate? I hate this argument because it makes no sense.

He looks like he's having fun. Family guy. Faithful. Normal sized. What he turns around sometimes after shoots? He shows confidence in his shot? Everyday nigs in the NBA show confidence in the "I have to believe I'm the best to be the best".

Cavs because Da Land is a funny nickname.

Warriors because I'm sick of lebron and all the dick riding and I wanna see KD tear it up and get his first ring and finals mvp.

>Ty Lue gets and L for replacing jewish coaching boy wonder (((Blatt))) and that's the only reason refball will play out in GSW favor
Hopefully after draft talent injection and even more cap rise all this rotten allying up shit will die. Maybe growing number of GMs that know each other better will help. There should be a lot of people who are fucking pissed that these discount/waved starters go to 2-3 teams to play other team's benchers instead of busting ass for contract they received from you.

>>76140609
The way Curry act seems a bit to outrageous for me. He has a permanent "we light years ahead" attitude, although he was humiliated last year and just faced Spurs without Kawhi and Parker.
Of course player like Jordan or Bird were very arrogant, but they knowed to show some "Champion" attitude too, the same goes with Lebron. Curry just seems like a cheeky high schooler who show off with his cool skills.

>>76136026
I would root for the W*rriors of it wasn't for Durant. Now I just hope everyone in both teams suffer career ending injuries.

>>76136026
probably the Warriors.

My team, the Braves left Buffalo 40 years ago, so I went to the Spurs back when David Robinson started to play for them (who could dislike david robinson?). It's been a good run with Pop and company the past 20 years. Developed an intense dislike for all things LeDouche when they lucked into that win over the spurs back in 2012.

Right now though I am not really a fan of the warriors, I can't hate their style of ball. And I've always liked KD's game. So I'll be rooting for the warriors in hopes once KD gets his ring he'll bugger off to washington, and give the spurs another crack at a ring.

I'm rooting for the fiery meteor to come end our pitiful existences before we have to see the same two fucking teams play each other again

GSW, if only because that retarded "Fuck millennial!' shitposter can finally kill himself and fuck off /sp/ forever and stop making those shitty threads.

Also, the idea of Lebron going 3-5 after breaking Jordan's scoring record is hilarious as fuck, especially if it ends when him retiring and fucking off out of the league, to finally get the Eastern Conference to not be absolute dogshit anymore.

This post-season will have enough high-profile free agents and draft picks, that there's no fucking way next year could be shit, unless Lebron is still around getting gifted all the talent in the East for nothing, by the virtue of him being the Cavs' GM.

>>76142292

Still pissy about Thomas being kept off of the dream team huh?

>>76142290
it's 3 years actually
And never before have the same two teams played each other three years in a row.

And there's absolutely no reason to believe we won't see the same thing for the next couple years. The two teams completely demolished all competition in unprecedented fashion and the teams chasing them are getting older. The Celtics are a fucking joke, they were lucky to be a top 4 team but they played in a shitty conference, honest to God the Bucks have the best shot at unseating the Cavs next year if Giannis proves himself to be the real deal and Parker can come back.

The Spurs are still the only team in the league with a shot to possibly beat the Warriors, and then they only have a shot if Chris Paul decides to jump ship

>>76142323

People literally follow whatever retarded narrative the media shits out. If you limited to just NBA teams, this entire season, up until Silver put out that letter, teams were encouraging griefing GS and its fans either with a designated 'bandwagon cam' crowd spots or some form of teasing them for blowing a "3-1 lead in the finals".

If not for Cleveland shitting the bed started in January this year, Adam Silver would have let that shit continue; where it literally took the Kings trolling the Cavs, after beating them shortly after the shit with Melo/Phil Jackson that the Commsioner's jew ass stepped in and put out a memo discouraging winning teams from 'trolling' the opposition.

You double Curry with LeBron + Kyrie to keep the ball out of his hands as much as possible, keep your SG on either Klay or Durant, and have one of the doublers rotate off to cover whichever between Klay and Durant you decide to leave open off ball.

LeBron formed a super team. Durant joined an existing super team and made it completely unfair. Big difference.

>>76151238

>super team

how did this meme start? yeah Curry is a solid player but he is not in the realm of players like Lebron, Harden, Westbrook, Durant. Klay is a good player but hasn't been in the playoffs. Draymond Green is ok.

Faggots like you want to talk about a super team but have no way of backing that up. You want to call Curry soft and a bitch and say he isn't elite and Lebron "exposed" him last year. You want to call out Thompson for not being elite enough and Draymond sure as hell doesn't have the best stats. So remind me again how this is a super team? Team work has helped them get wins and stay on top but that doesn't mean that you can call all these players all stars or elite.

Kevin Durant Joined a team that went 73-9 and was one win away from winning the championship.

Lebron joined the Heat when the previous year they were 8th seed and knocked out the first round.

>>76142310
Yup.

>>76159591
>Lebron joined the Heat when the previous year they were 8th seed

Heat were 47-35 that year as the 5th seed with just Dwyane wade
Never mind the fact that Chris bosh by himself was worth 9.6 win shares in 2009-2010 (just looked it up)

so when you count chris bosh joining, it was the equivalent of Lebron joining a 57 win team that year. Which of course would have been good enough for the 1 seed in most years. He literally left cleveland to join the #1 seed lmao

>>76149456
legod makes any team he is on into a superteam he is just that GOAT

put him on literally any team and they make the finals

First finals since Heat-Thunder I don't want any of these teams to win.

I guess in the long run, the Warriors win will still tarnish Lebron's "clutch" Finals record and will still be a diminished one in KD's career.

So I'd lean them but I hate the state of the NBA

>>76144113

look at you assuming that cleveland regularly makes these defensive rotations

you're an idiot

>>76159902

Defense is all about effort. Cleveland doesn't bother playing defense against the east because they don't need to, but when they feel like it they can limit you to 30 point halves like they did twice to Boston.

Add on the fact that they've had a week of rest and basically have coasted and stored all their energy for this one match up and the warriors are going to get annihilated.

*9.0, plus he had a diminished role in Miami, so you can't really extrapolate from a season where he was Toronto's leading scorer.

Cleveland because Durant is a bitch.

The Warriors added a perennial all nba star and MVP to their team this season. Anything less than a title will be failure.

I think if you ran a simulation of last years Finals the Warriors would even win that 99 times out of 100, the circumstances needed for the Cavs to win were really monumental and no one should down play that.

Sure, they still won and I was happy they did but I just don't see it happening again with the amount of firepower that Durant brings to their team now.

I hope /sp/ is ready for like at least 3 more years of the Warriors in the finals because as long as Durant and Curry are healthy there's very few scenarios where they don't make it all the way to the title.

Cavs so KD will forever go down as the biggest joke of a "superstar" to ever play in the NBA
