Cavs in 6. Wouldn't be surprised by a sweep by Cleveland either.

 

Also, the Warriors haven't won a championship once without 2/3 of the Cavs' key players missing. Even then it was a struggle for them.

 

To play the devil's advocate, they also didn't have Durant back then. He makes the Warriors much more lethal. 

Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC

True. Then again, Durant's points reduce the amount of points Curry or Klay provide.

Definitely true. Klay's been reduced to basically a role player, despite being arguably the best 2 in the game.

 

He hasn't been playing well this postseason either. His role being reduced probably has something to do with it.

Golden State in 5.

 

With LeBron having a better series than anyone.

Jordan played in the 1995 Playoffs. The Bulls lost to the Magic in six in the second round. 

That's right. My bad. I need more coffee.

Whatever you are on, I want some of it.  I think we all want some of it.

Cleveland may win ONE game. That's all I'll give them. But I think even that's a stretch. I could be wrong, but I really have a feeling this thing is going to be totally lopsided. Cleveland looks great right now, but they've beaten three teams that didn't provide much. Even if Lebron goes crazy again I still think Golden a state has too much for Cleveland to really slow down let alone contain. 

Exhibit A: Fan of team 1 gloriously proclaims they will curb-stomp team 2, and that team 2 will be lucky to win one game. This fan is overconfident in his own team and vastly underestimates the talent of team 2.

Exhibit B: Trying to outdo his opponent, fan of team 2 proclaims in an equally dubious statement that he wouldn't be surprised if his team wins in a sweep. His team, which most people would claim is inferior talent-wise, is coming of a shorter rest than team 1 and will not have homecourt advantage.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, what we have here are homers.

Yeah of course, what else do you expect me to say? Who are you going to pick to win the Super Bowl next year, the Ravens?

How does one in Sacramento become an Oakland fan? I thought all the cities in California hated each other.

 

Eh, Sacramento kind of merges with the Bay Area market. The Rivercats AAA baseball team has been both an A's and Giants affiliate over the years, the Sharks are probably the hockey team of choice, and I'm not sure about the football situation. Add in the Warriors' success and the Kings' bungling (even with the new arena), and it's totally a Bay Area outpost.

 

The distaste is divided between in-market rivals (SF-Oakland, LA-Anaheim) and the two big regions (Bay Area-Greater Los Angeles). San Diego has discontent with both regions, when relevant.

There's a difference between wanting to blowout your opponent and believing you'll actually do it. I desperately wanted the Steelers to humiliate the Pats in the AFC Championship, but I knew that in reality the opposite would happen.

I just have the most confident feeling in my team this time around of all three.

Confidence =/ Overconfidence

Seems to be easier when the Kings are bad and Warriors are good.

Bruh, people are allowed to be complete homers here, otherwise I'd have been banned ages ago due to my Cowboys homerism.

I was born less than 15 minutes away from Oakland Arena (The Oracle). Sacramento is, for all intents and purposes, Bay Area territory when it comes to sports anyway. 

 

 

Also, Sacramento and Oakland are damn near the exact same distance it is from Cleveland to Youngstown, Ohio ;)
