I know the regular season is a whole different animal, but I think the Cavs defended the Warriors excellently in their last meeting. Completely removed Steph from the game (or at least as much as anyone can).
The Cavs defense hasn't been otherworldly this year, but when the really big games came through, they stepped up.
A lot of teams worry me, but I can't say the Warriors scare me anymore than the Spurs, and only marginally more than even the Clips or Grizz. All of those teams are top tier and will take a herculean effort to beat. We'll go in as a coin flip, at least against the W's or Spurs, IMO.
I dunno man..
The only team in the West that I think could possibly be a 50-50 to beat us is Golden State. I'm very much in line with Vegas on this I guess; but I do not fear the Clips or Grizzlies in anyway at all.
Certainly the Spurs are dangerous, but I don't think they have an answer for either Kyrie or Love and that gives us a remarkable advantage.
I think Golden State can actually defend us fairly well, and can outscore us on any given night.
That's a frightening thought.
