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

Playoff record for most turnovers by a player. :blink:

As much as I like watching basketball I'm glad GSW finished off the Rockets tonight.

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:

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
