I think their are 5 main factors for capping this game.

1. Cleveland played shit competition in east -Washington was only team that could challenge them and because they couldn't win on the road they went down to a Boston team that Cleveland matched up well with because Boston couldn't control paint keep Lebron from rim.

2. Golden State didn't respect any of their opponents in the West and played to the level of competition - they will be much better in the finals.

3. The long layoff hurts Golden State more because they use much more motion and ball movement - Cleveland isolation offense benefits from rest and doesn't need timing.

4. Golden State is a different team this year not just because they added durant - Pachulia and McGee are a huge upgrade over Fzeli who couldn't guard anyone.

5. Golden State is much more focused and healthy this year - last year Curry was never 100% and GS was wore down after long season and tough 7 game series against OKC. This year they are hungry after the loss and much better rested and healthy.
