this season, and then Cleveland still showed so well on offense w/o Love, w/o Irving most of the Atl series, and with James not being able to make any 3's.

Their offense would've been historic with a healthy Love and Irving at this point.

GSW such rare combination of stellar offense and defense

In the playoffs, CLE has had better offensive AND defensive efficiency than GSW

Cleveland's competition hasn't quite been the same as Golden State's though

Cleveland has played better defensive teams than GS.

I agree...but they also made quicker work of their competition. 12-2 is unreal.

I blinked and missed the Atlanta series

12-2 is very good, but against that crappy competition it isn't

I agree it should be interesting and entertaining

Haha, nobody can "stop Lebron." That's just silly.

And the Warriors going 12-3 against that gauntlet was unreal.

Warriors went 12-3 against much tougher competition.

Based on what?

interesting. i guess something has to give.

I think the rest might almost be more important for James than Kyrie.

BGRTHNUMEGO

5/27/15 10:24pm

yep. Lebron at 35% 3s is almost necessary for Cavs to have a shot.

Warriors will rotate Iguodala, Barnes, and Green on Lebron

blucoug18

5/27/15 10:26pm

Lebron will get his... it's just a matter of how efficient he is at both

Cavs already beat the best defensive playoff team.

Most dominant NBA team so far we've seen in 18 years. (Since the Jordan Bulls)

that's what I'm thinking. but they've come on the scene so fast in terms

Been wondering this week if they're going to be the 82-83 Sixers.

was that the fo, fo, fo, team? i don't see it, but interesting thought.

Except for the Lakers team that only lost one game in the playoffs

Golden state had a much better regular season record as well.

5/27/15 10:59pm

I was just thinking the postseason

I think Golden State beats them worse than the Spurs disposed of
