I think the Warriors are going to be the champions for the second year in a row. Assuming Curry is healthy they're just too good. I wouldn't mind seeing Oklahoma City winning it all though.

Anyone but Cleveland.
And Toronto.

it would be fun to see durant and Lebron go at it in the finals, but I think gsw will beat okc.
I really hope Cleveland don't win, but I wouldn't be surprised if they take out gsw in the finals.

I'm rooting for Cleveland, with Toronto a close second in my heart, but my head says little chance for the Raps. Cavs fans have never tasted the big prize, and with their big three healthy they are formidable. I won't root for a Western team.

I'm torn between GS and OKC.
I think i'd rather have GS win to make it a perfect season for them.

I'll probably root for GS I just can't root for Lebron. I'm also want the Raptors to upset the Cavs.

Sucks Spurs went down, I was rooting for them. I wanted to see Duncan get a sixth ring, get one more ring over Kobe the overrated mamba.
Definitely can't root for Cavs and Raptors. I don't like Durant and Westbrook especially after what Durant said about Reggie and Detroit, so can't root for OKC.
So I'll probably root for the Warriors, even tho i'm sick of hearing about Steph Curry this Steph Curry that, all over the media.

The wording of the question suggests you want us to state who we think would win, not who we would like to win.
In that vein I think the only rational answer is the Warriors.
Would love to see OKC take it though.

GS should still be the clear favorite. What could potential muck things up are Curry's health mixed with Cleveland having the easier path. If the LeCavs come in rested and healthy while the GS/OKC series goes 6 or 7 games it could get interesting.
I'm going with GS over CLE in 5. Maybe 6 if the refs decide to make it a series.

I think we'll see the Warriors beat the Cavs. The odds for the champ goes Dubs - Cavs - Thunder - Raptors. If I was betting, I'd put my money on the Cavs as they are sure to be in the Finals and the last odds I saw was 9/5 for them vs 5/9 for the Warriors.

I said when OKC split with San Antonio they were in the driver's seat in the West. I'm still picking them to upset the Warriors, who don't seem like the Warriors since Steph's return. OKC has exorcised the fourth quarter demons and their bigs can give Golden State problems. But sadly, I think the Cavs take OKC in the finals.

I still have the Cavs - Lebron took the Dubs to six last year by himself, and they're healthy. And having witnessed the Shot and the Drive when I was a kid, I want that curse lifted!

Cavs are the ones in the driver's seat (people seem to forget they won 2 nearly 3 games last Finals without Kyrie or Love)
8-0 so far, least minutes and usage in Lebron's playoff career, huge amount of rest due to Game 7 bw Heat-Raptors
Raptors have Val out and just played a grueling series which should mean the Cavs either sweep or win in 5 (if one of DeRozan or Lowry get shut down the Raptors automatically lose)
OKC-GS goes 6-7 as well
I want to see OKC vs Cavs a rematch of Durant v Lebron and a matchup of Kyrie vs Westbrook with Lebron bringing the Cavs their first chip
I do NOT want to see Golden State and their smug asses win another championship and Id love to have their 73 win season become meaningless without the chip
I love when people claim that the Warriors would have dominated the league in 1995-1996. Curry wouldnt last half a season in that rough and tumble league where no star takes any games off. If the Warriors lose then the debate will be over, the Bulls had the better season despite winning 1 less game

I think Warriors will win, i would like to see OKC win, Toronto in the NBA finals would bring me joy just to watch what happens to Cleveland. Petty squabbles, calling each other out in the media, etc.

Co-signed. I wanted to see Duncan get his 6th, and I'm really down on the Thunder after all the crap they were talking this year. My position is anyone but Cleveland, and I don't think OKC can beat them, Lebron seems to feast on Durant, I think the Cavs would make a quick series of it. I'm hoping to see the Warriors, partly because I actually really like Steph Curry, I wanted to see them beat the Bulls record, but that seems like it would be hollow without a Championship. So, I'm gonna go with the Warriors. They're the ones I hate least out of the remaining teams.

Healthy Cavs have a real chance to win it all.

Used to live in San Fran so I am rooting for GSW.
I also lived in Seattle area so won't root for the Not Sonics.
Don't like LeBron so they are out of the equation.
Raps fans would be even more unbearable so can't root for them either.

Don't want the raps cause of their fans
Don't want the Thunder cause of the RJ treatment, and the whole Sonics thing
Don't want LBJ to ring chase another one
Leaves me with the Dubs and my boy Green!
