Thompson has really only attempted ONE jump shot? :x

Throw in GSW's youth in the Finals and no way I'd pick GSW

I keep seeing people saying this and need to ask... how much experience do the Cavs as a whole have? Who's to say that their team doesn't get lemon booty all of the sudden as well?

Most of their guys are ex-Knicks. They never thought they'd see the finals.

There's no doubt Cavs players could too. I mean let's ask James harden how he liked the finals first time around. But what the Cavs do have are multiple players with finals experience and more importantly Lebron. Things like that do matter. Whereas GSW are all seeing this with fresh eyes.

I won't diacount Lebron's experience.
Especially after what he's done with this Cavs team.

Nobody in the league could have taken this Cavs team to the finals.
Hell trade Lebron for Westbrook AND KD and they aren't in the finals.

He gets the most out of his cast, whether people admit it or not.
Players want to show up ready when they are with him. It's a PRIDE thing he gives them or something

is andrew bogut considered a good basketball player?

But Memphis wasn't scoring so no need for double teams. Everyone was just hanging around the basket waiting for rebounds. Wait until the defense starts getting drawn away from the basket.

Um, Thomspon has shot one jump shot in the playoffs, he stretches out less than Zbo.

Bron is also shooting 18% from 3, ain't gonna be much stretching my man.

Not saying TT gonna shoot outside at all but everyone else will and when you have to rotate and double team it draws away another body away from the basket. Believe me to works both ways but people making it seem like the Cavs ain't getting no boards when Hawks were getting out boarded by 15 and 20 a night. And don't tell me Hawks are trash. They got pretty damn competent big men. And one that I saw take a huge board to win a game versus Nets.

somewhere Mark Jackson is crying to himself

Outside of Lebron...the rest of that core has barely been in the playoffs let alone the finals.

I don't see how that plays a part here. This is really the first time for either team on this stage.

But they have LeBron......

I don't like LeBron at all, but I can definitely acknowledge his greatness.

Hand down, man down.

 

[everysingletime]

Yes, Lebron has been there before, but knowing your teammate has been there is not the same as having been there before..

99.9 percent of everybody on both teams are finals noobs

Teams on both sides are going to get the jitters. The only one immune to that would probably be Lebron, and also JR - because honestly, I don't think JR gives a crap - and that's dangerous

is andrew bogut considered a good basketball player?

Yes. He's dirty, but plays very good D, rebounds and has a high B-ball IQ. He was better offensively before he messed up his arm, but he doesn't need to score for GSW. He's perfect for the team he's on.

These Finals can't come fast enough man.
Only 412 days left, until Game 1.
Body is ready

that miami team's lack of chemistry was their undoing.

Look at the veterans on that Dallas squad tho compared to this Cleveland squad.

 

[sea manup]

david blatt's job is like that of a fighter pilot

so he's pretty much a war vet.

cant get anymore finals ready than that 

 

[a-friend]

I can't believe (glad though TBH cause they beat dead horses) ESPN hasn't ran with this "2 new teams in the Finals" story line.

S word is great

 

[nick.]

can't believe i've missed this thread all day

anyway...Warriors in 6

yeah but the cleveland squad has lebron which has been in this situation so many times meanwhile all the warrirors have is steve kerr

but i agree the rest of the cavs are pretty inexperience.

GSW has taken over the thread poll.

Yall are back.

If we had him last year we would have made some noise...

Kinda glad we didn't though, went into the season relatively under the radar without extra pressure...
