No NBA team has ever rallied from a 3-1 deficit to win the NBA Finals. Three teamswon the title after being down 2-0 in a series , but none have secured the Ship after falling into a 1-3 hole. tongue

That's baseball and i don't watch it and has nothing to do with this. Atleast, Indians were an underdog team, not as dominant as Warriors who blew a 3-1 lead.

This was what every Warriors fans were saying when it was 3-2, now they don't say something like that anymore cause the nut kicker had 2 more games to prove his himself, But he blew a 3-1 lead together with his cindarellas sad

The nut kicker was there in game6 and LeBron still had 41pts grin grin

Lovely thread... I've been following silently, tho I don't get to see the matches, I try to still follow and thanks to this thread I get current updates and even analysis. But Warriors is a much better team with KD now on the team, should they work together and peak together, then Warriors will defo beat Cavs in this year's repeat final. The Final is already certain with the way both teams are commanding their conference abi na zones grin grin grin

A big enough threat to win the east but not big enough to down the Warriors. My take

Yeah, a quiet observer, me too. The west would surely be tougher than the east which may leave the eventual champs drained going into the finals. Any of Spurs, Warriors and Clippers can make it all the way.
Early days though.

You are so right, and as stated on earlier discussions Warriors were totally drained in last final. The east is a very ride for Cavs and they could afford to keep their players fresh unlike Warriors, it was so obvious that after game 4 of the last final the Warriors players were worn out (tho they did their best) especially Klay Thompson. The suspension to Green is not an excuse but it did affect in the next game and his coming back in games 6 and 7 could not really make much difference (but I still believe if he had played in game 5, it would have been a wrap for Warriors) and to make matters worse, the bench was not up to it in the last 3 matches. With the additions made this season, Warriors would get to the finals (tho wont be an easy ride unlike for Cavs), but I just hope fatigue does not come into play...

The last final was really so tense and energy draining, it was really explosive...

I agree with you, 100%. I think the Warriors' acquisition of KD would just edge it for them, they have got that extra shooting power, added with his ability to turn up consistently with 20+ points per game while still reaching a double or triple double.
I'm a boyhood fan of Dwayne Wade since he won his first ring but my sentiments are with KD. Dude badly needs a ring to be mentioned as a true great, a mention he deserves
