. . . in the playoffs vs. the regular season (109 PPP vs. 110). So I don't think every game (or any game, really) will be a blowout, but I do think the Warriors will win in 5.

the reason the Warriors sweep or win in 5 is that Cleveland is pretty bad

Cleveland is a little better on offense right now, I think.

I guess I just inferred it. Kerr isn't coaching though right?

Yes. Two huge factors, though. Lebron was basically able to play

BPI gives Cleveland a 6% chance to win and the W's a 28% chance to sweep

I think any probabilities calculated with regular season stats in mind will grossly undervalue the Cavs. I don't know
