Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

I will say it... I AM NOT AFRAID OF THE BULLS!!! It will be a stressless 5 game series and the only problem will be Chicago gooning it up. The only team that will give this team a problem is San Antonio. Atlanta might be able to take them to 6 games, but it will be one of those we are up 3-1 and drop game 5 and close it out in game 6.

Don't stress guys... we got this
This is nice to see, because I thought I was the only one who thinks the Bulls are all kinds of overrated. I would actually be more afraid of a Washington series than a Bulls series. Atlanta is good, but I keep going back to earlier in the year when we beat them by like 40. The West, that's a different animal, but no one in the East should beat this team 4 times.

I give the Celtics and Stevens credit for playing extremely hard. This series is a great tuneup for the Cavs against a team that really wants it, but just doesn't have the pieces to keep up with the Cavs for 48 minutes. Offensively it felt like the Cavs didn't really have it last night, but I give guys like Smith credit for playing hard and making up for not being able to hit the broad side of a barn by getting 5 steals. The good thing about the close games is that it won't allow the Cavs to let their guard down. I'm sure they can feel that if they lay down a true stinker the Celtics will embarrass them. Hopefully some guys will find their shot between now and the next game.

I want nothing to do with Kawhi Leonard. When he shuts down LeBron and Tim Duncan starts playing like it's 2004, we're in trouble. I think the Clips, Spurs, and Warriors are the three most likely Western Conference champs. I think the Cavs could beat all three, but I don't like their chances against the Warriors or Spurs.

I'll be pretty surprised if anyone other than the Rockets come out of the West. That's who I'm the most worried about as well.

Wow, this game is circa 1989...this first half has been one giant mugging.

Oh, and if anyone else is watching the local feed...can you tell Carr is still a little bitter at the Celtics from his playing days? :lol:

At least the Cavs will be ready for the Bulls gooning up the game thanks to the Celtics. Maybe that's how you have to play when you don't have the players to win. I've lost some respect for a couple Buckeyes in this series.
