What a comeback, what a series
This was hands down the most satisfying series apart from winning the Finals last year, due to the circumstances. OKC had the players and talent to give the Warriors tons of trouble and they almost took them out, but Warriors kept at it and found a way to win - I agree with the TNT crew slightly that Russ/KD resorted to hero ball but that also just has to do with how the Warriors started defending them too.
Against the Cavs - like the Warriors' chances. They won't be as bad as when the Warriors blew them out in their own building, but I don't think they pose a threat like OKC did. Defensively I don't see them being able to disrupt the Warriors the way OKC can (and there are definitely lots of holes the Warriors can exploit), and they haven't been challenged at all this postseason - I think this will bite them in the *** in the Finals as they haven't gone through any adversity steamrolling through the East's weak teams. My homerism says Warriors in 5, but I think it'll go down Warriors in 6 again like last year. If Cavs keep shooting threes as they have, I'll take the Warriors over their shooters any day of the week.
