    Check In if you believe the Warriors win the title again

    Just post yes or no. I want opinions. I don't believe in teams who go crazy in the regular season. It's the nba though.

    I really think the clips and okc have better value.

    No...okc and clips fall apart when it counts and that's not just regular season. Feel the pressure could build to an epic upset come playoffs

    Yes-Golden State has already proven that they have the Spurs number this season and Duncan isn't Duncan anymore

    i remember you saying the same thing 5 years ago when the bulls swept the heat in the regular season. lol actually thought the bulls could beat the heat 4 times in a series because they won 4 times in reg season. needless to say, miami spanked them. wasn't even a good series. you said "have proven they have the spurs number" and your basing this off a regular season performance that means nothing. rookie thinking man.

    warriors and spurs are two best teams in the nba followed by cavs and heat.

    spurs imo are the best overall team in the nba but gs is a tough matchup for them. it's a coin flip series. okc and clippers? lol. yeah bro. clippers beat the spurs last year on a buzzer beater in game 7 when clippers were fully healthy and spurs had a banged up tony parker, ginobli, and no lamarcus aldridge....not to mention david west, kevin martin, simmons....clippers will get raped. okc is too undisciplined to win it all but there's no reason why they shouldn't be in the finals every year with their 2 superstars. They just don't play enough d.

    Spurs can't defend Curry without putting Leonard on him and then you've got your best player chasing Steph around screens for 7 games.

    Yes but they have to start playing better defense.. I think chasing the Bulls record is starting to wear them down..

    Spurs or OKC are the only challenge. GS will be respectable favs every series will only be dogs @ Spurs. Fade at your own risk.

    I don't think they will but you can't discount the possibility they might. At the end of the day I don't see anyone else than the Spurs having a chance but I think they'll have a pretty damn good chance.

    OKC and the Clippers are tired acts. Neither will ever win as currently constructed. They will fail as they do every year. And the Cavs are even bigger frauds than those 2.

    maybe

    all i know is that the warriors were favored by 16 against the magic on their most recent game at home mind you they are up at 17 at one point and they win by 8 or something and not covering the spread .. such a joke....

    Do they really need to stop Steph though? I feel like if he gets 30 a game but they stop everyone else (especially Klay, they have to get him to average an inefficient 18-20) they'll have a great chance. Green will have his hands full dealing with Aldridge for 7 games.

    YES. And i maintain a healthy Clippers team is the only team that can take more than 1 game against them. They will rape
    SPURS
    OKC and
    CAVS

    Spurs can beat any other team but they still don't know how to stop the Warriors.
    How do you stop Curry. Solve that then maybe you can beat the Warriors!

    Seto what your doing is like trying to find the way to beat Mayweather. Guess what... He's undefeated. You can't even bring stats to the discussion they have beat every team. Look at the loss record, they are in control they've been in control they aren't about to let up

    Cavs in finals will be golden state by 15 plus at home and close at cleveland. LeBron isn't the scorer he once was.

    I expect the only true challenge to be the Spurs.
    Cavs are horribly overrated IMO. They lack cohesion & chemistry.

    Does it matter though? Yeah, they've beat everyone, they're great, I have no problem with all that. Does it mean nobody can challenge them in a 7 game series though?

    Time and time again teams that have been swept in the regular season series beat the team that swept that series in the playoffs... 2011 Heat vs Bulls, 2014 Spurs vs Thunder, 2015 Wizards vs Raptors.

    Also unless I've missed something the Warriors have only beaten the Spurs once so far. But even if they do win the other 3 - it's meaningless in May when the real stuff starts.

    Just like you made it clear the Hawks were making the finals last year because of some fantasy fixing the league would do to make the sale of the franchise more attractive?
