    - Cavs are capable of stealing a game or two at Oracle.
    - LeBron is also a league MVP.
    - Regular season victories don't mean much in post-season play. See San Antonio and their capitulation.
    - Which could also mean they're more fatigued and aren't as fresh as the Cavs.
    - And the times where they beat the Cavs during the season they 1) had a different coach in Blatt instead of Lue and 2) didn't have Channing Frye who's been super for them so far during the playoffs.

    I'm on the Warriors to win it but the Cavs will be a tough hurdle to jump over and it isn't as easy as you make it sound.

    Nah you're reading that stat wrong bro. Cavs scored 104.3 ppg, they allowed only 98.3.

    I think the Cavs will win but every time I think the Warriors are done they make me and everyone else look stupid. Cleveland hasn't really played anybody in the playoffs yet. They're well rested, but the Warriors have been through the ringer. Not much the Cavs can show them that they didn't deal with in the OKC series.

    Cavs averaged 104.3 ppg and their opponents 104.1 against them, still they had a very good record, crazy.
    I'm taking the Cavs in 6 or 7 this year.
    They managed to go 4-2 against the Warriors last year, even lead 2-1 and now they have 2 of their superstars back, J.R Smith found his shooting and the whole team clicks at the right time. Very excited for these finals since anything can happen.
