I think themost likelyoutcome at this point is GS goes home up 3-1 but out of a sweep or getting to 2-2 what is morelikely?

This is not a serious question.

A sweep.

Cavs have absolutely no answer for Iguodala. Unless the Cavs collectively have an awesome game then expect a sweep.

I feel the answer has to be a sweep, it will be a struggle for the Cavaliers to take one of those games.

I feel like the Warriors are going to go for the kill in this situation. If this were split and were more on an even plain in the first 2 games you'd expect them to be tentative going into Cleveland. But I'm expecting them (Especially game 3) to come out and try to completely break their spirits.

Not a sweep but they go back to Oracle up 3-1. Don't rule out a sweep but Cavs MIGHT steal a game.

Cavs will blow out Warriors in game 3, then fans will once again question everything they knew.

I thought this would be a more competitive series. Each new thread I'm reducing the # of games by one. I still think the Cavs will take one at home, but this is looking like a five game series unless Cleveland finds some magic.

sweep is more likely than 2-2 after four games i guess.

Lue is holding the Cavs back. He needs to play Jefferson more, maybe even unleash Dahntay Jones for his physical presence. The Warriors are a very beatable team. It's not a coincidence that they were down 3-1 in the WCF.



Had to pull this quote from the locked thread. The Warriors were 73-9 regular season, 14-5 in the playoffs so far, and only one team beat them more than once all year (OKC). Not exactly the definition of a "very beatable" team. OKC seemed to be the only team all season that could match up well in a 7 game series.

Portland beat the Warriors twice this year (1 regular season and 1 playoffs).

Kyrie must play much smarter and shoot the ball better for the Cavs to have any chance. And that still probably won't be enough. GSW is too good and have huge matchup advantages.

I'd say 80% chance it is a sweep... but I also have a feeling Golden State will drop one... wanting to finish it off in 5 in front of their fans.

Got me on that one. I think my point is still valid. That still doesn't translate to "very beatable".

The Cavs will shoot better at home and the Warriors bench won't get the same production on the road but still think this is a 5 game series.

I see a JR Smith 6/8 3pt game coming and LeBron continues with his near triple double production, doubt that would be enough though with the way Kyrie has been playing.

About time to start Delly or at least give him heavy minutes.

If the Warriors win game 3, sweep. If they win game 4 and lose game 3, it ends in 5.

FMVP: Stephen Curry. I feel like he's going to literally go video game mode in the next road games.

Cavs are going to be tough at home. I expect the cavs to win the next 2 games.
