I wasn't serious about us sweeping GS. But, I don't think it would be that big of an upset. Come on, guys, we have LeBron James. Like he said himself, he's never truly the underdog, or this Cinderella story when he wins.
Cleveland, us, winning last year was a Cinderella story.
I guarantee when both series' conclude, GS will be the favorites, but it won't be by a landslide.
We still have 3 all-stars, lead by the GOAT in this generation. No one can deny that. And maybe the greatest ever, and he's playing at his best.
I think it's pretty even. GS is more talented, but LB tilts the scales so much. We got better depth than last year. We are a more talented team. I don't give a shit what our record was. We are more talented, that just never played at its peak in the regular season. We are finally playing at our peak, and we are a very dangerous team that definitely is capable of beating GS.
Either team can win this series. Can be it GS? Of course they can. You'd be foolish to think they can't, I get that.
But I think people are buying too much into the GS myth/hype, and underselling what's taken place if they think it's going to be against all odds for us to pull it out.
With LeBron James? Nah.... Won't be easy. Winning a title never is, but it should be a close series.
I don't see us as this overwhelming under dog going against the big bad Warriors. I see it as two power houses colliding that should be an epic finals.
