Ladies and gentleman, at this point I'd like to direct you to my signature.Them bum ass Rockets can't even help us out by getting rid of the Spurs even without Tony Parker smh.
Bullshyt."Most anticipated NBA Finals of all time"
Yeah right
It's always gonna be Celtics vs Lakers
Bullshyt.
Guess you missed the 4th quarter of game 7 last year.He can take the risk of taking those 3's without real repercussion if he misses them. Versus GSW, every possession will be crucial.
Versus the Raptors, I seriously don't think Lebron even busts a sweat of worry if the Cavs are down even by 20 to 'em.
This is a different GSW team.Guess you missed the 4th quarter of game 7 last year.
The game is bigger today my man. The average fan don't give a fukk about that old Lakers vsm Celtics rivalry. Yankees play the Red Sox every year. Bad comparison.Celtics vs Lakers are the Yankees vs Red Sox of the NBA
An all time rivalry going back 50+ years that probably would never be surpassed. The anticipation for those series supersedes everything
Cavs vs Warriors had what, one classic series?

Then say that, not that silly "pressure" bsThis is a different GSW team.
You said all that shyt like KD made the finals a foregone conclusion only to say you think the Cavs will win it all. Nearly half the coli is split on who the victory will be and you don't think it's the most anticipated? Which Finals was more anticipated?this isnt the most anticipated finals of all time...it's just they are clearly the 2 best teams in their conferences, and that's what people wanna see...
kd going to gs kinda took away from the potential anticipation of the conclusion to gs/cle trilogy....i say that cause for the most part, the teams stayed the same the first 2 match-ups...yea, they made bench moves, but the cores were the same....so we were getting to see who was the better team between the 2, and this was gonna be the potential rubber match.....kd going to gs was a game changer and threw off the dynamic....adding one of the best (top 3 to most) players in the league to one team, and the other team not doing something similar tilted the scales too much in favor for 1 team, so it's not the same....hell, most thought gs was gonna win the ring the min he signed, and nothing has changed that line of thinking....at this point, most people will be tuning in more to see if the cavs can just compete with such a powerhouse team, let alone beat them....
to go along with that: all year people have been saying kd going to the warriors (a team that won 73 games) ruined the season cause it made them the overwhelming favs to win the ring, and that no team has a chance against them....that makes for potentially low ratings, which would be bad for business...the nba & disney (abc/espn) know this, that's why the hype machine has gone into overdrive to build up the cavs and them having a 'chance', despite dogging them all year lol.....
...with that said: i picked cavs in 6 to start the year, and i aint changing it now....think bron will slow the game down, and kyrie will iso them to death like last year....
