Warriors in 6

Cleveland is going to focus all their efforts on KD and throw as many bodies as they can. Defense will tighten up and try to make Dray score or win them games. Cavs have the deeper bench, but IDK how effective they'll be.

Obviously lebron is going to win 1 game on his own and one or two role players such as Love, JR, Korver, TT or Hill will get them that 2nd win. I just can't see a championship winning team bending over in a clean sweep.

This is the year Curry gets that Finals MVP. He's been absolute fuego this postseason. This is the best he's ever played.
 
Lebron averages 45/10/10
Wins FMVP
Dubs in 5

This is a real possibility, only because this is the only way LeBron can evade this years scrutiny which he'll face later down the road towards the judgement of his encompassing career.

I don't think there will ever be another Finals MVP from a losing team. Happened once with Jerry West, but it was a different time then. But I guess they share the same Finals success (somewhat). So, it wouldn't be too far-fetched. Right?

Scrutiny? Dude played 94 minutes in two games last week.
People that will try to scrutinize that dont hoop

That still won't prevent people from talking and ultimately remembering he lost. After some time, people forget the details of things and only remember the final result. There are no such thing as caveats in history. Especially within sports. And if you do come across them, they're too far in between. Look at Jerry West. The man BALLED out in all those Finals appearances. He's only remembered now for losing so much in the Finals.

Comparing different eras never goes well
 
Baffled to see people giving the Cavs 2 games

I'm banking on Iggy being hurt and the Cavs giving draymond/bell/looney the Harrison barnes treatment. There should be additional help on durant post ups and I'm going to guess they trap curry in the P&R instead of letting love or Thompson switch onto him

The warriors need to keep running though because their half court offense was pretty bad against the rockets.
