Blatant disrespect ??? Warriors still favored to win Next Year

[duncanthetall]

Richard Jefferson won't be on the Cavs next year

JR may not be either. Wonder how they replace them

 

[Da King]

It's funny how dudes were giving the Warriors an asterisk for their title last season, but aren't applying the same logic to the Cavs this season.

compare losing Irving/Love to injuries to scrub role players brehs

Boston over Miami and Toronto

unless they get KD im likeView media item 8908

Best guess is the rationale is that Miami will be another year older, Bosh could be done and they could lose Whiteside for nothing. And Toronto could lose DeRozan & Biyombo for nothing

While Boston will be adding a top 3 pick and have enough cap space for 2 max contracts while keeping the core they already have now intact

FWIW, I think it's farrr too early to be talking about championship odds

I can see you aren't too bright.

nikkas talking about injuries like every team doesn't have injuries. Blame Gaymon for hitting people in the dikk. He got himself suspended.

Cavs need another wing player big time if How shump played these playoffs is any indicator of his play going forward.

They also should develop Jordan Mcrae, dude has a nice offensive game, just gotta see his defense

 

[iliketurtles]

Celtics lmao

 

[prophecypro]

Makes sense given how they played and barely lost with a lot of outliers (Curry and Iggy not 100%, Bogut out and Draymond suspension)

 

[BStapies]

As they should.

RJ is gonna retire. Cavs have no backup SF. Love is still a bad matchup for the Warriors or Spurs. JR, Delly and Mozgov are free agents. Warriors only have Barnes and Ezeli as free agents (who both are trash) and have cap to get a max player or pieces (unlike Cavs)

They should be favorites. Only thing that tips the balance is if KD goes to the Spurs or Cavs

Were you saying this last season when the Warriors won? Or were you talking that asterisk bullshyt?

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

Boston ahead of Miami

You been on a roll since last night.

Breh stop it with the Facts we want more bashing of the champs

Look, nobody's trying to take anything away from the Cavs.

They did it. They came back. They punked GSW. Respect.

But let's not act like GSW wasn't wounded throughout this series. Between Steph needing knee surgery, Draymond getting suspended (his own damn fault), and Bogut being out (made a HUGE difference in Game 7 with garbage ass Ezeli costing them in big moments), there's no denying Warriors were a bit short-handed.

But hey, it is what it is and Cleveland won. Looking at next year, oddsmakers see this and they take it into account. So it makes sense as to why they would see GSW as the favorite.

ActuallyI just realized Cavs have a lot holes to fill up

Delly is a RFA
JR opting out
Rj retiring
Mozgov is a FA

Cavs are basically without a bench come July
