Now that the Warriors have lost we can talk about the championship. 2 things have become clear in the 1st quarter of the season. The Spurs are not old and are back in FULL force and will be a HUGE challenge to the Warriors. A cakewalk in the East for Cleveland will not exist this season, they gonna have to work to get to The Finals this year.

[FlipsideRM]

disagree, cake walk for Cleveland once again especially when Kyrie gets back. However, the Spurs are legit contenders again this year

Why would this loss change the conversation? No one ever said they would go undefeated The talk has always been about whether or not they would have a better record than the 95-96 bulls, that hasn't changed.

This GSW might be 33-3, trytrytry would be a happy man

Nah, being undefeated fueled all the conversation. You will see a lot less about it now, thankfully. Regular season records mean nothing. It will soon be evident they won't touch the Bulls record and we can focus on what matters, who will win the championship.

Philly, Brooklyn and Milwaukee. You can't figure that out on your own

[whareouttogetme]

I'm not a Basketball fan but I said the other day GSW will lose to the team you least expect. Happens in every sport when a team is on a hot streak

[Ebe]

Warriors will smoke the Spurs

you can get -150 on them not breaking bulls record. solid odds if it's that blatant to you.

Some folks don't know that. Cleveland loses on the road at Detroit, Charlotte, Miami and Milwaukee and they conclude the Eastern Conference championship won't be a cakewalk for them. Some folks don't know the difference between regular season and postseason.
The NBA Finals will be between Cleveland and whichever team will emerge from the Western Conference. It appears to me GSW will burn themselves out in the regular season chasing vainglory. So a San Antonio/Cleveland finals is looking more probable with each passing day.

What more ironic is that the Bucks were the team that also stopped that 33 wins streak by the Lakers... I guess it's only fair

Where is that offered? I read a story where they said it was -130/110 before they lost but didn't share the book.
