    Three players are averaging at least 20 ppg. That is just stupid. Can any team beat them in a 7 game series? I think our offense matches up with them as good as any other team. Can Harkless hang with Durant though?

    Prediction: they will blow a 3-1 lead in the NBA Finals.

    I hope they don't make it to the Finals.

    Can Harkless hang with Durant though? Yes. Harkless wears a Blazers Jersey.

    No. You need to be able score with them. We can do that. Houston and Cleveland too. I think those four teams are the only true contenders this year.

    I don't think trying to outscore a team with Steph, Klay and KD is the way to go. Gotta stop Steph defensively, which is what Love did last year. LeBron just took over too.

    I think a team like the Clippers is built to beat them.

    I agree. This is the last shot for that Clippers team and they know it. I could see them pulling an upset in a 7 game series.

    I knew we should have drafted the Warriors instead of Lillard.

    We beat the rockets in a playoff series based on Lillard and one possession. ;)

    It's about as fair as Karl Malone and Gary Payton joining Kobe and Shaq just to end up losing the final...karma's a bitch

    Those guys were 40 years old.

    The Warriors signed a 28 year old perennial MVP candidate (and sometimes winner) to join another, on top of having just beat the regular season record for wins.

    You need to embarrass Curry on both ends of the court, it really fucks with their team when he loses his cool. See LeBron blocking him and Kyrie crossing him up.
