Warriors are not contenders without Bogut or Durant.

Where do I start with this bullshyt.
I. You can't just take Durant off the team, you have to replace with him a competent starting wing - which is what I said. Of course, if you just take him off and don't replace him the Warriors would lose.
II. What the fukk do you mean a "healthy LeBron-led team"? As if LeBron hasn't been healthy for the last three Finals'.
III. How can you accuse me of having zero evidence they'd win, when going by that same logic you don't either?
IV. I have the evidence that last year's Finals was decided by 4 points. That's all that separated the teams, and that was with the Warriors suffering multiple injuries + a suspension. When both squads had their full rotations the Warriors went up 3-1 - proving to be the better squad when healthy.
Surely you aren't this stupid?
Draymond was the second most important player for the Warriors in the '15 Finals
Draymond was the Warriors best player in the '16 Finals
Draymond's been nullified in this series because of how he's been officiated. Whether that is intentional or not, I don't know. But it's certainly affecting his game and the series.
You sure are dimwitted sometimes. Just because I claim to be unbiased, doesn't mean I'm not aggressive with my approach. Smarten up.He can no longer claim to be unbiased whatsoever, he's fully on board with the Warriors and it's obvious.

Did you forget what happened last year when both teams had their full rotations/healthy?

You best believe if there was no Durant, and the Warriors had another starting wing (a competent one) in his place this series would be officiated differently. For starters Draymond would be allowed to be more physical on defense, rather than picking up fouls for just breathing on players.

Bogut is on cavs now anyway
Of course the Warriors "Could" beat the Cavs w/o KD. They beat them 3 times last year w/o KD. The Warriors still had the better team (Better bench/role players, and better coach). The Cavs could beat them as well, we would have had to let it play out and see. That series could swing all the way from Warriors in 5 games to Cavs winning in 6 games. Warriors would be the favorites.

Whether I like the team or not, doesn't affect how I value their play. Keyword: play.Nah, you are definitely biased now and you know it. You love them Warriors.
Dubs a better team from top to bottom..
This is the rule
1. Bron has to come into the game blank slate (like in 2016 before he started figuring out the warriors/suspensions/injury and 2017 as each game got closer until a win, even though it might be too late)
Does the 2017 cavs have enough talent to compete before bron looks in depth on the film and the plays that work vs don't work or will he need the adjustment time?

They were in the exact same position last year without KD. KD wasn't just about beating the Cavs it was the bigger picture, about becomin a dynasty that could win 3-4

i say cavs in 6 without KD
kevin love is much more comfortable this year in the offense and is a factor.
also the warriors defense wouldnt be quite as strong without KDs length
