After this two wins and all the confidence in the world, the Cavs are clear favorites to win the NBA title. They have the best player in the world and a great young bench that rating was the highest of LeBron career.

Wowwwww....We really doing this today???
 
LeBron is going to play ~40 minutes a night for ~100 games this season.

How much longer could he keep this up?
 
Funny thing is the Cavs biggest issue was defense and they made trades that did nothing to address that. Hood isn’t a bad defender but Crowder was better. Isiah is horrible defensively so Clarkson was an improvement but not great either. Nance can defend a bit but not locking anyone down. And George Hill an average defender.

If Cavs play the warriors, matchups will be LeBron on Durant, Hood on Klay, Hill/Clarkson on Steph, and Nance on Draymond? Ehhhhhhhhh

Crowder's defense has gotten worse since the 2016 season. He and Hood are a wash defensively. Everyone else they added are better defenders and overall players than what they sent out. Again, these moves certainly did not put them on the Warriors level, but it did make them better. There was no move available that could have made them SIGNIFICANTLY better defensively.
 
I do this everywhere. I won’t sit with my back to the entrance/exit if possible

Aisle seat at the movies right by the exit every time, but even that don't stop me from thinking the worst. That setting is just mad weird and considering the things and deaths that have happened in movie theaters before, it's shocking how lenient they are with people bringing **** in.
 
The Jazz had been shopping Hood and it was obvious that they were going to part ways whether it was at the deadline or in free agency. Thread doing revisionist history like crazy on this point.
Yes they were, but it's not like he's some scrub ( bballkid11 bballkid11 >D). He's a 25 year old capable scorer and defender that has had injury issues throughout his career. There are definitely risks to be had with him, but I don't see how anybody could doubt that he isn't a valuable player when healthy. Would be a rotational piece for every team in the league.
