Cleveland does have more depth than Golden State, and they can go big or small. I think Cleveland has more versatility in their lineup and ability to score. Lets not forget they have Lebron who has been to the finals and won before. That is a big deal. Especially with Irving back. He's a player that can be that type of player to take over a game like a Curry or a Lebron. Just that extra dynamic player makes me think Cavs win this series 4-2.

And all the other quarters?

On an unrelated note, there are now 10 NBA players to make the NBA Finals in 5 straight years: 8 Celtics from the 60s (all HOFers), LeBron James, and ... James Jones.

Game result...Houston won.

Demarre Carroll held Lebron James to 2pts in the first quarter of game one of this series.

One quarter.

Hmmm ... something different in both cases I'm guessing.

But that (those) one quarters.  mm, mm, mmm.

Game result...Cavs won.

Cleveland does have more depth than Golden State,

Gonna agree to disagree there.

If the series goes more than 5 games, I'll be watching from St. Lucia. Getting married on the 13th, and will be leaving on the 15th for the Honeymoon. Here's to hoping the Cavs give me a baller wedding gift. :D

Ha! Actually chuckled out loud at that one. And don't count out zombie Houston just yet. (I hope it's GS, we matchup better) Could see the finals going 7 games...coin flip as to who wins. If Irving is healthy, Cavs. If not, probably GS.

Oh no. The Cavs would easily beat the Rockets, I feel. The dubs will give you guys a series.

I don't see us easily beating anyone in the Finals. It can't ever be easy for us to win a championship lol

I'm still going with Cav's in 6.

Lebron has been here before. Actually winning a title is a huge advantage in terms of experience. I think as the series goes deeper Lebron can channel all those past experiences to push his team in the right direction. Not sure how GS will respond if they get down in a series or can't push Cleveland around. Does anyone with leadership on that team would know what to do in those situations, not entirely sure.

I'm just not confident at all. Hawks? I knew they'd be a pushover. But hell, as far as experience, you could say GS had no business beating Houston either, as a bunch of those guys have a ton of playoff experience.

The bottom line is Steph and Klay are borderline unguardable. The only thing that makes me feel better is that I don't think they're big enough to hang with the combo of Moz/TT/Bron. I think we're going to murder them on the boards.

I agree, 2nd chance points will be big, and I think can give Cleveland a serious edge.

I just think the Lebron factor will be big in this series.

I hope so. I just have that built in Cleveland pessimism that just anticipates more heartbreak.

GSW in 6 is my prediction.

I don't see how the Cavs have a serious edge in 2nd chance points. I think the battle of the bigs is pretty even but maybe Tristan Thompson will step up even more.

GSW had the best defense in the NBA this year and Kerr is a great coach so it should be fun to see what they do defensively.

Its been fun to see guys like Barnes and Thompson set up and become key parts their team's success.

Harden was awful. 12 turnovers...bouncing the ball off his feet....crazy.

Draymond Green on LeBron James is going to be entertaining!

I know...woof.

Two things will determine this series.

1. LeBron's jumper

2. Kyrie's health.

If Kyrie is close to 100%, and LeBron finds his jumper again, the Cavs take it in 6. However, if LeBron keeps chucking bricks, and Kyrie is still this hobbled, Warriors in 6.

Pretty sure that's just the general smog that settles over Cleveland. EDIT: Could've sworn you said "air" and not "hair." :doh:

    • You’ve yet to propose anything else. And yet it was, and the rules tell you how to deal with it. Your question has been answered. The Committee can declare them GUR. I disagree with your assessment of common sense. 😀 And yet they didn’t really change this one. Looks like this is about wrapped up? “That Rule is So Unfair!” A Rules Geek’s Generalized Guide to Hot Takes and Overreactions | Rules Geeks I apologize for the length of this post. If I had more time I’d have written a shorter one. – Erik J...  
    • When you are penalized for hitting into the sand trap the penalty is having to hit it out of the sand, not out of three inches of water. A sand trap is not the same as a water hazard. A sand trap is not supposed to be under water. It is a unique condition caused  by weather and poor drainage. Most local leagues like ours allow the free drop in this type of situation, as long as there is no area in the bunker to legally drop. This is what I’m talking about, sometimes the official rules of golf don’t align with common sense. That’s why they are finally starting to change them. For example, when wind blows your ball off the green. That was a stupid rule. People being able to call the tv network to say they saw a players ball move. That was a stupid rule. I’m just saying, these are rules made up a long time ago, and it’s time to modernize them.
    • Consider it another way: normally, it's a two-stroke penalty to move your ball out of a bunker (unplayable). The ACC reduces it to just one.
    • No, hitting into a hazard that is supposed to be avoided and is designed to be penalizing is not the same as hitting it into the middle of the fairway.   You are penalized because you hit it into a hazard. Based on your logic let's say you hit it into a red staked penalty area and you could normally play it but it's in temporary casual water from rain. Would you expect a free drop from there too??
    • They could have declared it GUR, sure. It is. It's temporary water, and as I said before, an abnormal course condition (ACC). That's what rule 16 is about — ACCs. No, a bunker ≠ the middle of the fairway. You are penalized because you hit it into a bunker. As for the rest… let's stick to the topic. Yep.
