Once again man that bulls team was not very young. That team had a lot of playoff exp (had gone to the conference finals 3 straight years) and three of there starters had over 7 years exp. Draymond and Harrison Barnes have only been in the league for 3 years, Klay for 4 and this is the first time they were even in the conference finals.

But please don't compare this to the 91 Lakers vs Bulls. At that time magic was not the best player in the league and the Lakers were long in the tooth and could not match the bulls in athleticism. The Cavs are not over the hill and they match up with the warriors in every way. Plus they have the best player in the world.

Bogut is bigger and more skilled around the hoop than the decomposing body of Noah that the Bulls were dragging around in that series

He is more skilled around the hoop. But he will not shoot and will not attempt to shoot. He will also not put the ball on the floor. That is why I will argue he is even easier to guard than Noah. Noah will at least attempt to shoot or put the ball on the floor and dribble to put pressure on the defense.

Warriors only the eighth team in history to finish with an average point differential of over 10.
The other seven teams? The 1970-71 and 1971-72 Bucks, the 1971-72 Lakers, the 1991-92, 1995-96 and 1996-97 Bulls and the 2007-08 Celtics. Six of those teams went on to win the championship; the only team that didn't was the 71-72 Bucks, who lost to the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.

TEAM RECORD DIFFERENTIAL RESULT
1971-72 Lakers 69-13 +12.28 Champion
1970-71 Bucks 66-16 +12.26 Champion
1995-96 Bulls 72-10 +12.24 Champion
2014-15 Warriors 67-15 +10.1 ------ :sas2:
1971-72 Bucks 63-19 +11.16 Lost West Finals
1996-97 Bulls 69-13 +10.80 Champion
1991-92 Bulls 67-15 +10.44 Champion
2007-08 Celtics 66-16 +10.26 Champion

Aside from Lebron, how do the Cavs have more experience? :francis:

Guess you didn't read the part of a star player being more experienced.

If Lebron was young like curry then I would roll with the warriors. But with him being the best player in the world, years of experience and a team that can match the speed of the warriors I got to go with the Cavs.

If Lebron was old and long in the tooth. Or all his players were like 1st and 2nd year starters I would go with the warriors. But with his exp and with the starters outside of Bogut and curry being real young in exp I got the Cavs.

And don't get me wrong I am torn on this because I want Lebron to win, but I hate the racist fans and the owner will get a ring. Not to mention the hanky panky the league was doing for the cavs with all them #1 picks. shyt looked like what the league did for Orlando back in the day to get Shaq and Penny.
