i called the last two Finals correctly, but did so before tip-off on first night.
I am doing so now after seeing one game.

Warriors just don't have a long solid plan. It appears that they went all in on scoring.
as if Kevin Durant was just going to play with a second ball, and they were going to add 27 puts
to every game.

The magical cart that they had appears to be completely upset. They can't rebound effectively.
Pat Riley (1980's Lakers) "No REBOUNDS, NO RINGS"

Warriors had a 73-Game winner, and foolishly tinkered with the recipe.
and i don't mean tweaked it. The turned it upside down,
Kevin Durant is being PAID AS MUCH AS CURRY and KLAY... C-O-M-B-I-N-E-D.

boy, that was smart.

this team starts the season 24-0, goes 73-9
and you make the highest paid player somebody that had absolutely NOTHING
to do with that accomplishment!!

NOICE.

Cavs look very confident and easy, they are acting like true Champions.
They can win, and they KNOW they can, and they are not nervous or strained.
and they rebound like hell.

Spurs are better than the Warriors and POP is still the best coach. He will outcoach
Kerr in the playoffs. Especially with Home-Court. and they are improved with Tim Duncan.
He was slow last two years.

I expect Spurs will have a better record than the Warriors.

Do u know how contracts work?? Obv not. Durant signed after the salary cap went sky high, obv he's getting a max deal. Curry & Klay were signed in yrs past when cap & their service time were considerably lower. If Durant/Curry/Klay all signed on the same day & Durant was paid nearly what the other two combined were then u have a point. As is your point is ignorant & irrelevant.

I. Thomas makes 6M/per A. Horford signed for 26m......Horford makes more than I. Thomas, A. Bradley J. Crowder & M. Smart combined......your logic is stoooooopid!
Orlando made B. Biyombo their highest paid player. Atlanta did same with D. Howard. D. Wade in Chicago, L. Deng in LA, J. Bayless in Philly same.....your logic is stoooopid! Milwaukee pays M. Dellavedova 3x's what it does G. Antetokoumpo.....stooooopid!!

This particular point of your "agenda" is pointless.

Spurs look tough. The Clippers are another team that could give the Warriors trouble.

Do you know how emotions work?? Obv not.

Wade has RINGS. Can teach other players. Durant is a ONE TIME MVP. Curry is a TWO TIME MVP.
Thompson is now the 3rd Option.

That does NOT work. Can't work against a great team. they really need a rim presence.
(a GOOD ONE. Not just a tall guy) Bogut is gone.

Warriors BETTER last year.

thank you Gary.. best luck in all your picks.

Lakers look legit too!

young Laker players unshackled now that Kobe is gone.
that is 30+ shots a game that are freed up for others to take.

if you look at the box score.. shooting was really spread out..
nobody totally took over. much more dangerous team that way.
Defenders can't leave their man or position.

Lakers MUCH better WITHOUT Kobe
