    Warriors/cavs

    I don't run and hide like others here. I stand up and take accountability for my actions. I took okc to make the final. They fell apart. I wanted to talk shit about durant and russ. I can't. I look at Kevin and saw him hug his mom on mothers day and saw a kid who was just trying to do his job. I would never criticize him. He is so innocent. So what he lost game 6 with his bad shots. He cost me so much money but I won't turn on him cause I have a son and I could only hope he will be half the man kd is. KD is a great kid. I wish him the best and lots of success. I don't judge careers that early. Russ the same. He tried to change. Give these guys time. They love each other and will one day hold a trophy together.


    Now the finals.

    The warriors want to smash the cavs for calling them lucky champs. Curry is back in rythym. Books never gave up. Whoever got +500 on warriors is laughing so hard right now. Big matchup issues for cavs. Thompson (Tristan) will get boards for sure but guys okc was the worst nightmare matchup for state and the fukkers survived. Now state is laughing all the way. Massive coaching mismatch. Cavs can't defend the arc. Cavs have bum bench. Retreads galore.

    This is james team.

    My prediction

    Warriors win series

    My bets

    Warriors -1.5 games +130(5x)

    Warriors in 4+987(2x)

    Warriors in 5+354(4x)

    Warriors in 7 +254(3x)

    This has 7 written all over it. Cavs defense >>> any defense GSW has faced so far IMO. Cavs are finally healthy. Even if they lose it would be shocking if the Cavs can't win a few at home and steal one on the road.

    I wish I had gotten warriors +500. I got +300 first week of the year on my future. All that being said cavs are going to win game 1 I think and we are going to hear the retards coming out in full force after game 1 and then disappear when it's all said and done. Prepare for the idiots

    eyeing these..

    Warriors win 4-2: +450

    Series ends in 6 games: +225


    if you like Warriors, great value for a common 4-2 outcome.

    second bet somewhat covers you if Cavs win since that would mean they closed out at home in Game 6.

    obviously could win or lose both wagers.

    premise - neither team gets swept or only wins once.

    Interesting to see you bet on a favorite.
    Lebron James has a 2-4 record in the NBA finals.
    So your bet is reasonable.
    Also, Michael Jordan has a 6-0 record in the NBA finals.
    Michael Jordan is the greatest.

    So LB, you like the Warriors to win the series, but if they win in 7 games, you drop 3.5 units.

    Hmmmm.

    Still betting game to game?

    I bet the total as soon as I could, first game under 210.5. Hasn`t moved at all in a few days, but had to put something on the game.

    I get a sense that the LeBron led cavs still require training wheels in the form of ref help to win (travels compounded with bailout free throws despite the travel etc.) unlike true winners like the spurs or Celtics of recent memory. Even in Miami LeBron showed that he needed the special treatment to win despite the talent around him.

    With that being said how dangerous are the cavs with ref help? Is Adam silver a true David stern disciple in maximizing profit for the nba by manufacturing drama at the cost of organic competition? If all refs are a fixed variable or consistent and equal then gs wins in what? 5 maybe 6 games tops?

    Also get a sense that kyrie irving is going to have a helluva series with and withought ref help since curry has harden like defense.

    Silver isn't as corrupt as stern was. I think just in thetime that silver has been commissioner you can see that the so called "rigged outcomes" are less then before. It's still not completely gone but it's better overall. The biggest issue with the NBA is there's zero parity and there's like 2-3 teams that have a chance to win it all after the first week of the season which makes the regular season not much fun to watch

    The cavs will win in 3. The reason being they are going to blow out golden state so bad that golden state will just forfeit and there won't even be a game 4.

    Hah. I suppose LeBron James would ditch the Kia chariot and arrive to the parade on an antelope made out of a cantelope, both sticky and majestic?

    I just texted my brother in law from Staten Island. He just had a heart attack and is very lucid. He will give us the series winner. Tony-come check in.

    JR Smith may be the X-factor in the series, he was playing tough defense in Toronto series and I can see him pulling some shenanigans to get inside Curry & Thompson's heads. If he's hitting 3's Cleveland should win.

    I agree. The Cavs have more weapons, if Klay or Steph are off it's game over.

    Cleveland is going to beat the living snot out of the Warriors.
    Golden State is nothing on defense. Cleveland can hurt them
    in so many ways, there is nothing they can or will do about it
    except keep looking up at the scoreboard and getting more and
    more desperate as Curry and Thompson try to make hero 3's when
    they are down 10+. Over and over again. Irving is a good defender.
    Love is a scoring threat, unlike Bogut. JR Smith is a long-shooting threat
    the Warriors can't ignore. LeBron can do anything from chargethe hoop
    to captain complicated schemes. He will be focused onbut that will draw
    open shooters, as LeBron also excels at the kick-out pass.
    The Cleveland bench is stacked with pros who will never give
    Golden State any rest. Cleveland is smart on committing fouls and smart
    on drawing fouls. Cleveland has the perfect attitude and did not scrape by
    anyone, unlike Golden State. Cleveland is loose and healthy.
    They are so happy Golden State won because now they can take back
    the ChampionshipLeBron worked so hard for but had an injured, lesser squad
    and a coachingcontroversy. None of that now.
    This will be an enormous, historic win forthe city of Cleveland, who will celebrate
    their first NBA Championship then host the Republican convention in the Quicken Arena,
    then Donald Trump will post his nomination speech at FirstEnergy just a short walk away,
    in front of over 90,000 supporters and the whole country.
    I am ready to cash this ticket on both Cleveland and Donald Trump.

    Nothing on defense? Iggy, Thompson, Bogut and Draymond are all above avg defenders. Actually just read that you said Irving is a good defender so i know you must be trolling.
