He wouldn't even get off the bench for any of the western conference top 5 outside of maybe OKC.

Even at full strength the Warriors have something the Cavs don't and that's continuity. Look at the recent champs they're all teams who have been together for multiple seasons with little turnover. CLE won't have that level of comfort this season.


Even at full strength? The Cavs won 2 games against the "historic" Warriors without 2 NBA All Stars. To sit there with a strait face and tell me that with Kyrie and Kevin, the Cavs couldn't have won it all last year is delusional. The Cavs are light years better at this point in the season then they were a year ago. The Cavs were 19-19 and then went on an absolute tear. They are even better this year. Just wait until Kyrie comes back at full strength. The Cavs could be realistically looking at a 13-1 start.

Sure they could have. Doesn't mean they would have. Hey clippers were 1-1 without Chris Paul. With him 2-3 vs Houston in the playoffs. Just because the players who are better miss games doesn't mean the team would automatically win games if those guys played. Over a season yes. In a series no. As much as CLE would gain offensively they would lose almost as much defensively by having those guys.

Why do you think I won $ from TBM on fantasy hoops last year? My talent evaluator skills are superior.

Agreed. Warriors weren't even playing all that well and they took it to them.

W's are already missing their center. he's fragile (injured a lot anyway).

Not very historic if they do not have the big guy in the middle at playoff time or if the slight substitute is injured (again).

They are a nice team. We can judge if historic after the fact.

They need both centers to be healthy at playoff time and all the rest of them too.

Unlikely that all their best guys are healthy at playoff time.
Kyrie was giving Steph Curry a very hard time before he went out.

Cavs can beat the W's.

If the Cavs and W's are both healthy at playoff time, it will be a great finals. Cavs in 6. Curry goes off for 50 once and Thompson goes on fire in the 3rd quarter for 25 another night. LeBron wins another ring.

The supporting cast for the W's are pretty good. Thompson shows up big time, then the W's can win it all vs Cavs. If not, Cavs win.
Kyrie can't guard them both. Thompson is the key.

the cavs would pistol whip your top 5 teams in the western conference besides the warriors and the spurs. To say that they couldnt beat the warriors is pathetic.

the Cavs play in the sorry East I wish HOU could play all those scrub teams 4x a year instead of playing legit teams like OKC, SAS, GSW, LAC, etc etc etc.

I doubt you have that kind of money to lose on a bet. Better to keep it low enough that I have a good chance to collect.
