Not to just a question to the hardcore Cavs or GS fans, but to everyone that knows this game inside and out. Is Kyrie the big x factor here?

I see a lot of pros and experts picking the Warriors in 6 or 7. If Kyrie plays and plays healthy enough, is that enough for the Cavs, or is he just too banged up? If so, is Lebron enough to do it? I love reading the posts here during NBA Finals time. It's my favorite time to read The Coliseum.

I feel like James has had a different look to him this post season and if anyone can carry the Cavs to a win it's Lebron. I think I'm still picking GS in 6 or 7.

Curry is better than Stockton right now

as far as being a pg Curry isn't seeing prime Zeke, Stockton, Payton, Kidd or KJ, he wouldn't be able to stop those cats either.

This form of Curry is 10000000000x better than Kidd ever was.

Pretty much. You can't really count on JR and Shump, they're still role players at the end of the day.

kyrie is the X factor... because he can eliminate CURRY's contribution...

if he matches curry.. draw fouls.. guard Curry.. then cavs chances goes WAYYY UP..

you can put your other defenders on Klay and green and make them way less impacting...

you know bron will shut down barnes.. but greene might hold bron to 25ppg..

if Kyrie is doing only 15ppg brown has to do 30-35ppg and JR and Shump has to do 15ppg then..


Defense i think cavs take that one hands down...

both are excellent on the wing but cavs is much better in the paint..

i think this will go 2-2 after 4 games.. and coaching will take over...

if in 7.. superstars will take over.

There isn't "everything else". The point of the game is to win, therefore how much say you have in putting your team in a position to win = better player. Kidd in place of Curry on this team would be lucky to make it out of the first round.

Kyrie is the ex factor to keep the Cleveland offense from becoming stagnant when Lebron starts slow or isn't producing until Lebron gets back on track.

That's how the cavs beat Atlanta Game 3. Despite Lebron going 0-10 his role players step up and keep the offense at flow. Because Atlanta could have blown them away not to mention Lebron was doing other things to keep the team at float.

But you can't count on the role players to be that consistent. Aftee what Kyrie did the The Spurs there's no doubt in myin he can take over and do the same against The Warriors. And if Kyrie plays at that level the Warriors have no chance unless Curry has one of those nights. But even still, Lebron will be the closer

Was there something wrong with what I said?

I humbly disagree with your assertion that a prime Kidd couldn't take this Warriors squad to the Finals

Everything else
