Re: NBA
The NBA got what they wanted, a rematch between the two biggest stars in the league. You know they didn't want a Toronto vs OKC matchup.
I feel pretty good about the matchup. The Cavs are a MUCH different team than they were last year, first and foremost having Irving and Love healthy changes everything from the start. Also, the Cavs are a solid 10 men deep. Last year our bench was Mike Miller, Shawn Marion and Brenden Haywood, I don't think any of those dudes are in the league anymore. Hell, the Cavs don't even have the same coach as they did last year!
Still the Warriors are extremely dangerous and I expect a helluva series.
The thing I like the most... Lebron has been just lying the weeds waiting, getting rest and waiting.. The Cavs lost 2 playoff games all playoffs long and Lebron has basically been a facilitator the whole time, never even once has he had to take over a game like he can.
I don't think either team can stop the others offence, this will be a high scoring series and the 3 ball will be flying all over the place.
Cavs in 7.. on the road.

Re: NBA
I'm kind of glad the Warriors got here as it makes it far easier to root against them than it would have been the Thunder.
I think if the Cavs win this, it'll be in 6.

I'm thinking of putting together a "Cleveland Pro Sports" song list.

Your situation has not improved.
Well ... wait. Maybe Cleveland could be the first place to lose five pro championships in a row and finally claim victory for being the most prolific clutch chokers in sports history.

The Hater's Guide to the playoffs.
8. Marreese Speights. He’s so fat! How do you get that fat playing 82 games a season? He must have his own training table. You could roast his shoulder and feed a family of 18
...
6. Kevin Love. Frankly, I admire Love’s commitment to not playing defense. Defensive players are annoying (see the top of this list), and I don’t pay attention to defense anyway. The new, no-defense Cavaliers are far more enjoyable than last year’s model. That said, I have no idea if Love is actually good or not. All I know is that he looks like the before shot in every Gillette commercial
...
5. Steph Curry. I haven’t learned to hate Curry yet, but many people already have, and I appreciate their efforts. Give me time and I’ll hate Curry for the same reasons you do:
If you’re rooting against him, he hits dagger shots at the most annoying possible moment. It’s like watching Dallas Clark catch 20 passes a game.
He’s so small! Why don’t defenders just stomp on him and grind him into the floor? GET HIM.
He’s a fucking phony. Anytime you talk about God that much publicly—à la Russell Wilson—I assume you sneak out every night to have a four-way donkey orgy
...
4. Harrison Barnes. Every time Barnes makes a shot, I’m genuinely surprised. It’s like seeing Tim Tebow complete a pass, or hearing Donald Trump say something coherent. Defenders leave him open all the time because he shoots with the consistency of an epileptic doing a spirograph. “Oh wow, he made one! Guess it’s not our night!”

Re: NBA
I don't understand what Cleveland is doing at all.
"Hey, let's dump the awesome offense we've been using lately and instead use the one that lost us the championship last year. Plus, it make us look terrible during most of the regular season! Also, we should specifically ignore anything OKC did to have success against GS."
As soon as I see Cleveland go iso, I know they're going to lose.

Re: NBA
I see no heart whatsoever with this team! JR, Kyrie, Love all of them are not big game players at all! See ya later boys! get rid of all three of them this offseason..
How in the hell was last years team putting up a better fight than this years??? Just another chapter in the long losing history of Cleveland sports.
Warriors in 4.. game over
