Disagree with them being the most stacked team. Okay Cavs are without injury. Only difference is Cavs can't seem to play to their potential..YET.
The addition of KD makes the warriors the team to beat.
Even with the Cavs new addition , i bet you the Cavs are still wary of a fully fit KD

Forget the comeback talk, the warriors are back. But hey, i don't know why Eruditor and smooshchn are going berserk. angry
It's not like y'all aren't the best equipped team in the league already, if anything, it's the Cavs who should be worried now.
And hey, all these your epistles on Westbrook gets me chuckling, I mean , Hollywood or not, history would remember him for what he has done this season and his name would be mentioned in the same breathe with Robertson. No one cares to know how many soft FTs James gets, all we know is that season by season he climbs up the all time ladder.

Nobody cares about his TDs (atleast we didn't diss it me and SmooshCHN). We were talking about how he doesn't make his teammates better hence their loss.

Anyways, I like the fact that we have gone back to being the most equipped team even after losing KD. All I know is that even after we lost to the Timberwolves and barely beat the Sixers, I was here announcing that we had gotten our groove back but you were saying until we blew a big team out you disagreed. Well, at least you can see why I rate my own opinion about my team very highly.

Forget potential, they are coming out of the East. If they face Spurs, GSW or Houston that's another argument especially if GSWs shots fall and the refs call the obvious fouls.

Cavs never really had a system of playing they are heavy ISOs and 3 points but the only difference this time is they have gone down on rebounds and rim protection.

Even if they played their best ever basketball, it will still depend on what the Western teams do because the western teams are well-coached system teams that shoot better than your cavs.

You mean Curry's six shy of equalling the highest number of 3s for Klay despite his run of bad shooting games? He must be the greatest shooter I ever saw.

You won't just stop saying "your cavs". Do if I say anything in cavs favor, means I'ma Cavs fan? smh

You have a point, top western team have better coach system than the cavs which is the difference. The argument was "most stacked team"

Well it's prolly cos they don't have a better system than warriors. I mean why should they be wary of the warriors with that squad?
Playoff squad
LeBron vs Durant
Irving vs Curry
Klay vs JR
Draymond vs Love
TT vs Pachulia
Cavs bench vs Warriors bench

Why should that cavs team be inferior to warriors?
LeBron, Irving wins their position hands down.
JR and Love are very good player to challenge Klay and Draymond and TT will eat Pachulia all day.

this nigga said lebron and irving wins their position hands down. I am confused, which position does irving plays? you can't even say arguably, you said hands down. Guy, even warriors fan they vex me of recent, but sometimes at least yarn the truth make you shame the devil. The only position cavs get hands down na small forward position, and maybe center

As a rule of thumb, I like people who can read and comprehend before replying. Sure, I mentioned "your Cavs" but that's because you have owned them by giving them claims even they would not accept. Save that, I didn't discuss most stacked with you and there is a reason for that.

SmooshCHN has already answered you well, if they are most stacked fine - there should be no argument if they lose to a less stacked team. That's all I have to say. Cheers.

What is the Cavs record vs Western Conference teams. Yeah we know they came back from 3-1 but I'm struggling to remember a top 10 Western team that has not sodomized them this season. Would they even get to the Finals if they had to play GSW, SAS, LAC, POR, HOU 3 or 4 times a year

Cavs fans would have none of it, they still argue that their conference is just as tough and competitive as the West.
They are not even at par with the Rockets.
It's just unfortunate that they would only meet one of the best from the West in the playoffs.

Fact
not really,
the last game 7 in a conference final before OKC-warriors happened in the east:heat-pacers and heat-celtics,consecutively too.
meanwhile the spurs ran a train on the west and one time destroyed the grizzles in 4.
so the conference things switches every now and then.

I don't really see his statement as an accusation. I believe he was just trying to get his teammates ready for the big task of defending the title. A lot of players on the team, including LeBron, had a poor performance against Denver. So, All of them need to work on the mental aspect of their game. Aside that, LeBron is the leader and he's been at the finals more than any active player. So, he knows what it takes to be at the big stage and probably he has noticed some things in the team that we, as fans, don't get to see.
