They're not the best team in the NBA. It's Golden State by a good margin. However, that was also the case last year. The Cavs have the best player in the world and one of the greatest of all time, and that is why they will always have a chance to win, no matter how great or small the odds are. Literally the only reason. Not because they're a better "team" than GS. Cavs fans shouldn't feel insulted, because it is just the objective truth.
O ya I live in Cleveland love the cavs. It I have said all year gs is a better team I mean. They have 2 top 5 n 2 other top 20 they just have to much talent
Extremely Underrated 1 That's why I said we were looking good. Kyrie and Love isn't that efficient shooting wise yet but the role players are looking better now
kanimo24 you're right but I personally liked LeBron and d wade better. It's sad wade couldn't stay and it's also sad LeBron disappeared when wade was straight balling against Dallas
Luele Berhe Imo I don't think kyrie will ever be as good as wade was. The defense, the leadership, and the playmaking. Wade is arguably the third best shooting guard of all time. But you never know
OMG....Really? Guys, the CAVS have a BETTER TEAM and SHANNON KNOWS IT! They are just saying this about this Warriors so when Lebron wins they can say "And Lebron just beat this AMAZING Golden State team! He's GOAT!" smh!
Excuse me, did I just hear "the new Warriors that have no bench"? Let's see: Iggy, Livingston, Clark, McGee, McCaw, Barnes, West...and you always have at least one of the big four playing. Hate them or not if you think the Warriors have no bench you're deluded...
First off, Golden State's bench is as good or better than they were last year. Not only does that pass the eye test, just look at the stats. Not only that, watch a game. Game 1 against the Jazz is a prime example. Steph, KD and Klay had pedestrian offensive outings by their standards. The bench is what blew out the leads each time. Second, nobody got on the warriors for getting KD because of LeBron? What is this, Opposite Day? Everyone said that about them.
hollowaz134 actually it is true. I'm not talking about their league ranking as a unit. that factors in what others benches are doing. I'm talking the numbers the bench from last year gave compared to this year. West is giving them basically what they got out of speights, but better D. Clark has been giving them about what they were getting out of barbosa, McCabe is giving more than Rush, McGee and mac are giving more than they got out of Ezili who was hurt a lot. There wasn't any dip in actual production. It was either a wash or an improvement in some areas. In the starting slot you are obviously getting way more from KD than Barnes and Zaza is actually giving relatively equal to what you were getting from bogut. There are a few areas defensively bogut was better which are offset on the offensive side for zaza (i.e. Free throw shooting and getting to the line specifically).
Danny Blau Danny Blau Warriors +/- Steph +5 Klay +23 KD +2 Draymond +19 Zaza +6 Starters combined= +55 Top 5 in minutes of the bench Iggy +9 Livingston -7 Clark +7 West +14 McGee +1 Combined= +24 But the bench "blew out the leads" right? Get out
Yes, the 2nd units run with klay, draymond, west, iguodala was the unit that made the run. How about watching the games before you needlessly point out stats. West had 7 assists btw controlling the offense during the runs.
Wonder CheezeProductions Do you watch Warriors games? Like more than three or four lol? Livingston is a great backup PG. David West is a good passer and rim protector. Ian Clark is pretty good too. Not even to mention Javale who is playing really well.
Cedric Ceballos was a beast in LA. I remember him Anthony Peeler, Nick Van Exel, George Lynch, etc. The old Lakers was fun to watch. Didn't win a ring but still were fun to watch.
WARRIORS BENCH THIS SEASON VS LAST: Iggy=iggy Livingston=Livingston Clark>>barbosa (at this point in their careers) Mcgee>>>>> festus Matt Barnes>>> Brandon rush David west>>> speights (fits warriors pass first system way better) Anybody who says the warriors have a "weak" bench is a casual fan who only watches highlights
Anything Crazy to me the only bench that's better is the cavs.. and even then the cavs bench is very overrated their better but not much better tbh. The warriors bench is on par with rockets and spurs imo
These analysts dont watch the game and say ignorant stop like warriors have no bench. Their motto is still strength in numbers is stands for a reason. No objectivity at all.
Not a bron fan but when you have to go get arguably another top 5 player and 2nd or 3 best player in his position you are a problem lol. You need all this firepower to get take down bron that says a lot about the guy
Enrique Ybarra Its not that we really need him. We didnt get out of our way to sign him tho. He wanted to come and when opportunity presents itself why push it away.
Commandosoap777 Thats my point. Everybody talking like we were begging him to come but no. Kd wanted a ring and who is gonna say no to the probably the 2nd best player in the nba right now. I know Lebron is good but Gsw as a whole have a better team.
It's very debatable especially since they have the best player in the world. However, it's very hard to try to make a case against Golden State and the fire power they have.
And GS bench is easily as good as it was last year in terms of consistency and defense. They aren't quite as dominant on the perimeter shooting with their bench as they once were, but KD makes up for that difference. Also Klay and Steph and KD get all the extra 3's their bench used to take because now Javale and Clark and Iggy and West all take up some of those shots, just usally from 2.
The only way they'll win again is if Curry and Iguadala is injured again and Draymond get suspended. And they bring back Bogut to get injured again and bring back H. Barnes to shoot nothing but bricks again. Y'all really think this is the same Warriors from last yr. They got 7 to 8 new players on that team who are hungry for that chip and they just need to win 11 more games to taste it. They're chasing this yr not protecting, it's a difference.
Why do people keep saying the warriors have no bench? Iguodala, Livingston, West, Mcgee, Barnes and Clarke provide plenty off the bench. Plus when you have 4 all stars you can always afford to have at least 1 on the court. Golden State haven't even got out of 2nd gear yet and they still look unstoppable. It's gonna take something special from Lebron to beat this team.
Jay Luke they are scared, they recruited the 2nd best player on the planet after almost winning. Would ask your brother to help you fight the boy you almost knocked out
Kash that man had a lot of dumb points idc who you are you would of let KD join your team tf LeBron the main one recruiting but skip didn't let him have it because I think he new to the network
Im just excited for the Boston v Cleveland ECF.... thats gonna be a good series if Boston keeps riding the emotion of IT4, they are playing w a lot of heart right now...
its so true the warriors are scared of lebron and why skip making it sound like the cavs are taking on easy teams when the warriors faced Portland and the jazz lol
The east have beat the west over and over again and the warriors said they where not chasing it.. And thats why a team from the east beat a 73-9 team in the finals... The west is so easy they got so many wins because the other team don't compete so they get easy wins.... The cavs vs pacers in the first round where all close and the cabs came back from a 26 point deficit mean while golden state blowing out teams every game and a lot of the times they choke big leads... Bruh they needed Kevin Durant help 😂😂 thats how scared they are of lebron and the cavs 😂
Carlos Laboy you keep bringing up 73-9 like the regular season matters. when the warriors were healthy they were up 3-1 about eliliminate the Cavs and Bogut injured. that is the only reason y'all won
Carlos Laboy LeBron averaged and kyrie averaged 6 less point when bogut played and y'all were down 3-1. y'all were finna get eliminated and then he got injured. mind u he was their only rim protector
I have been a fan of the NBA since the 80s and I think this would have been the true result if there are no injuries/suspensions in the finals. 2015: Warriors, simply because the Cavs doesn't know how to use Love back then. 2016: Warriors, healthy Bogut and 100% Curry plus no Draymond suspension which led to the Cavs getting momentum in the series. 2017: Cavs, I think that Lebron would play the best finals of his career and carry the Cavs to the championship and get his revenge on the Warriors. Again, that's just my opinion.
I like that!! My prayer is to see both teams healthy. Since Cleveland is the best team, we, warriors fans, don't wanna hear excuses about 4 all stars in the same team. Y'all are the best team and have the best player in the world 👏👏. Let's see if you can beat us 4 times when everybody is healthy.
Desmond Christian that heat team didnt win 73 games or make it to back to back finals or have 4 all stars or a finals mvp on the bench or have 2 mvps that are top 5 players that played each other in the conference finals but nice try
James Lenzy your right they didn't have that. But in all of basketball what they did have was the most dominant team in all sports that year. Am I right or wrong? This 73 win team stuff is over rated considering how many actual good teams were there last year. That's ready for a title Maybe 3 or 4? And don't get me started on this MVP bs. When LeBron came to south beach he wasn't playing with any old scrubs. It was still a prime Dwayne and Very good Chris bosh let's be clear on that. They by far had the better team in finals and should have won. I'm not excusing if Durant them lose because they are in a similar place but if they do so happen to lose you can't give LeBron a pass and not Durant.
i hate the disrespect to steph curry. he didnt need any more help, last year was just unlucky with injuries and suspensions. last years team is capable of beating the cavs no doubt.
dayum12 if its so week why didnt kd join an east team. No top 5 player in the league will go east because they know lbj will send them home like he did the best in the west last year
The Cavs look great because they've recommitted themselves Defensively. They obviously can score, they got Bron, Kyrie, Kev & D-Will can come in and let them play off the ball. Their issue was Defensive effort. Plus they know how to guard Golden State.
My bad 2 All-Stars, Serge isn't an All-Star he was in the All-Star Dunk contest not the game. Lol but now it matters which conference you're an All-Star? Arguably Kyrie or Love wouldn't be an All-Star with KAT/Anthony Davis/Cousins and Steph/Harden/Triple Double Westbrook. So does LeBron not have help? Or does he have a superteam? People keep creating different arguments about this stuff that ends up hurting their own argument lol
Yes there is but it isn't time for the cavs to think about them. Right now it is all about Raptors. Game 3 is all about Weathering the storm and them get the win.
I'm sorry but you can't discredit 73-9 even if they didn't go on to win the championship. It's still an unbelievable achievement. You can't say it's cos no team goes hard in the regular season why has no other team ever had that record then?
Trell Money77 You're missing the point. I've acknowledged that they didn't win the ship. That guest however is tryna make it out to be easy suggesting that no teams " go hard in the regular season" . If that's the case then why has no other team ever achieved that record? Not winning the ship taints the record but it can't be denied what they achieved that season is still remarkable and unmatched by any other franchise and deserves respect imo.
the cavs will be lucky to win a game against the Warriors in the finals this year, if anything LeBron is scared of the Warriors which is why he was begging for help, there will be no suspension this year, the cavs are toast.
I'm not a Lebron fan but the man is up there very consistent he been good for so long people don't appreciate him He got the best stats all he need is a couple more rings
Lmfao not even close. Golden State would sweep them if they played right now GS is making good competition look weak while the Cavs are just making weak teams look mediocre.
Shannon "Is he more special than LeBron?" Cedric "He's not more special than LeBron" Shannon "Oooh ok you know what, SKIIEUP" Immediately calms down* Highlight of my day
Amel Murati there's only two people who can guard lebron on the warriors which are draymond and iggy. But lebron is a whole different player so far in these playoffs it will be interesting.
You are right that Iggy and Dray can guard lebron.KD can also guard him.But he looks different in these playoffs so far,untio the finals,until Iggy and Dray will guard him😂😂
A month ago, weren't people saying that the Raptors have a chance of taking the Cavs in round 2? How did that work out? DeRozan one became DeFrozan one.
They really think Cavs are better than GS. There's no way & I don't get how they don't talk about Draymonds defense. It's equal or even better than Kawhi's defense
That's the weakest argument about regular season not counting. If you're finishing with 50 wins and winning the chip that's nice. But When you pull off the Bulls 70 wins and the chip that's legendary. Only 1 other team came close to pullin that off. Nuff said.
i love playoff basketball. but hey i know comparing a regular season game to a playoff game is not realistic but uhhh the last time these two teams met cleveland got destroyed just sayin.
Do the Cavaliers look better than the Warriors right now?
Cleveland Fagaliers L asf for the name and comment go back to the warriors bandwagon #cavsnation #backtoback #2017champions
Yea
Yes they are easily the best team!
UNDISPUTED ON FS1 yes
lmao no , cavs dirty asl but we still talkin east here , warriors aint lose yet either🤷🏾♂️they a whole different beast
They're not the best team in the NBA. It's Golden State by a good margin. However, that was also the case last year. The Cavs have the best player in the world and one of the greatest of all time, and that is why they will always have a chance to win, no matter how great or small the odds are. Literally the only reason. Not because they're a better "team" than GS. Cavs fans shouldn't feel insulted, because it is just the objective truth.
Richard Staple so true
Richard Staple the Cavs are the only team that can turn up the defense to another level.
Richard Staple I'm a CAVS fan and this is definitely fact!
Ruth Jebose perfect comment ..:.. everyone knows GS has the better team no doubt... but with best player in Lebron you always have a chance.
O ya I live in Cleveland love the cavs. It I have said all year gs is a better team I mean. They have 2 top 5 n 2 other top 20 they just have to much talent
We not the best team in the NBA but we looking good af right now.
ZuffyG Wow realistic Cavs fan. I admire your honesty.
ZuffyG nah we playing ight. Lebron is playing good but kryie and love arnt playing all that.. specially love. So we ain't playing great yet
Extremely Underrated 1 That's why I said we were looking good. Kyrie and Love isn't that efficient shooting wise yet but the role players are looking better now
Extremely Underrated 1 kyire isn't playing good ? he had 11 asset boii fym
Not the best team but they dont have to be. They have lebron james
The Warriors look like a better team to me. Their starters destroy teams so early on, they don't even have to play in the 4th.
The Avatar That's a run and gun style of basketball... Cavs have a different style of play that doesn't exert all of that energy early on in games
Cavs have 3 stars to Warriors 4, not a big talent difference at all
Ethiopian Pride Another reason why they look better
So it seems but Warriors excel in transition.
Uhm, who did they play in the fourth in Game 3 and 4 against Indiana, Game 1 and 2 against Toronto.
"Warriors don't have the Barbosa's and the Speights and on and on and on"
What is he talking about. That "on and on and on" is still on the team.
Johnny Wolf Dalcour that's 4 people, 2 that I already addressed were gone, the other 2 were starters (one who was replaced with Durant)
Bogut ?
yeah but he's talkin about bogut on the warriors
There's not a guy on the team that I despised to have on the floor last year than Speights.
phil6057 lol like Barbosa and Speights were actually game changers, yeah right. I'd take Ian Clark and (surprisingly) Javale McGee over them
Skeeeiip Skeeeeiiip...Cmon man
in all seriousness though, the connection between Lebron and Kyrie is deadly.
kanimo24 you're right but I personally liked LeBron and d wade better. It's sad wade couldn't stay and it's also sad LeBron disappeared when wade was straight balling against Dallas
kanimo24 Facts Fam it's better then Dwade fr Kyire Knows what he doing
AMac/ Rain I agree it's better but because of health take a prime D wade and replace him with kyrie right now
DiZzY SLug ya but kyrie isn't in his prime yet, he's 25 and has plenty of time to grow.
Luele Berhe Imo I don't think kyrie will ever be as good as wade was. The defense, the leadership, and the playmaking. Wade is arguably the third best shooting guard of all time. But you never know
OMG....Really? Guys, the CAVS have a BETTER TEAM and SHANNON KNOWS IT! They are just saying this about this Warriors so when Lebron wins they can say "And Lebron just beat this AMAZING Golden State team! He's GOAT!" smh!
Excuse me, did I just hear "the new Warriors that have no bench"?
Let's see: Iggy, Livingston, Clark, McGee, McCaw, Barnes, West...and you always have at least one of the big four playing.
Hate them or not if you think the Warriors have no bench you're deluded...
Ester indi you don't need a bench lol when you can have 1 all star on the floor at all times
Ester indi but the cavs usually have one of the big 3 on the floor except for a blowout like the warriors
That's not even a bench
Ester indi o
That bench is trash except for Iggy and Livingston. So yeah no bench basically, they only go 7 deep.
First off, Golden State's bench is as good or better than they were last year. Not only does that pass the eye test, just look at the stats. Not only that, watch a game. Game 1 against the Jazz is a prime example. Steph, KD and Klay had pedestrian offensive outings by their standards. The bench is what blew out the leads each time. Second, nobody got on the warriors for getting KD because of LeBron? What is this, Opposite Day? Everyone said that about them.
Meanwhile lebron begs for whichever player he wants, and puts together his own superteams. People have real short term memory lmao
Danny Blau not true warriors had the number one scoring bench last year
hollowaz134 actually it is true. I'm not talking about their league ranking as a unit. that factors in what others benches are doing. I'm talking the numbers the bench from last year gave compared to this year. West is giving them basically what they got out of speights, but better D. Clark has been giving them about what they were getting out of barbosa, McCabe is giving more than Rush, McGee and mac are giving more than they got out of Ezili who was hurt a lot.

In the starting slot you are obviously getting way more from KD than Barnes and Zaza is actually giving relatively equal to what you were getting from bogut. There are a few areas defensively bogut was better which are offset on the offensive side for zaza (i.e. Free throw shooting and getting to the line specifically).
Danny Blau

Warriors +/-
Steph +5

Top 5 in minutes of the bench

But the bench "blew out the leads" right? Get out
Yes, the 2nd units run with klay, draymond, west, iguodala was the unit that made the run. How about watching the games before you needlessly point out stats. West had 7 assists btw controlling the offense during the runs.
LeBron James working hard feeding Skip Bayless' family. GOAT.
*facts*
That guest they brought in is legit! He provided some great key points that I somehow missed when it comes to basketball 🏀 very knowledgeable!
He isn't actually. He have no basketball IQ.
yeah, you're right. He's stupid.
Warriors bench is good? Iggy, Shaun Livingston, Ian Clark, David West are all good players.
Lizzie Valley no they aren't 😂 only iggy
Lizzie Valley yes all except Clark and he isn't bad
Wonder CheezeProductions Do you watch Warriors games? Like more than three or four lol? Livingston is a great backup PG. David West is a good passer and rim protector. Ian Clark is pretty good too. Not even to mention Javale who is playing really well.
Javale is killing it this season, not just playing well.
cavs bench is most better
Cedric Ceballos was a beast in LA. I remember him Anthony Peeler, Nick Van Exel, George Lynch, etc. The old Lakers was fun to watch. Didn't win a ring but still were fun to watch.
WARRIORS BENCH THIS SEASON VS LAST:
Iggy=iggy
Livingston=Livingston
Clark>>barbosa (at this point in their careers)
Mcgee>>>>> festus
Matt Barnes>>> Brandon rush
David west>>> speights (fits warriors pass first system way better)
Anybody who says the warriors have a "weak" bench is a casual fan who only watches highlights
It's weak compared to the other elite teams. That's the truth.
ProfessorFinesser Tell me which bench is better than the GSW now?
Anything Crazy to me the only bench that's better is the cavs.. and even then the cavs bench is very overrated their better but not much better tbh. The warriors bench is on par with rockets and spurs imo
ProfessorFinesser How? If their bench is better how come Lebron is averaging 41 minutes a game? And as far I remember, their bench was ranked 28.
ProfessorFinesser Brandon Rush >Barnes Speights> David West
Nice to see Cedric Ceballos! I remember a 50 points game he had for the Lakers back in the days...
These analysts dont watch the game and say ignorant stop like warriors have no bench. Their motto is still strength in numbers is stands for a reason. No objectivity at all.
Stanley Enemuo IKR these ppl so uninformed it disgusts me. I mean, it's ur damn job. The least u can do is learn ur stuff
great point! people keep hitting KD and not talk about GS and Steph. double standard
Not a bron fan but when you have to go get arguably another top 5 player and 2nd or 3 best player in his position you are a problem lol. You need all this firepower to get take down bron that says a lot about the guy
I'm liking this guest, bring him back more often!
This dude buggin. He sounds like he's talking from November 2016
have this man on more !!!! he speaks the truth!!!!
Warriors have two MVPs on the same team just to beat a 32 year old Lebron James, just saying .
Enrique Ybarra Its not that we really need him. We didnt get out of our way to sign him tho. He wanted to come and when opportunity presents itself why push it away.
Byambatsogt Baatartsogt nah almost the whole team showed up to the meeting and curry said he doesn't care if he isn't the star
Well Lebron is still unbelievable he ain't slowing down for another 3 years tbh
Byambatsogt Baatartsogt yes you did... you gave up 4 players to get him 😂😂🤣
Commandosoap777 Thats my point. Everybody talking like we were begging him to come but no. Kd wanted a ring and who is gonna say no to the probably the 2nd best player in the nba right now. I know Lebron is good but Gsw as a whole have a better team.
Shannon is way too funny! 😂😂
If lebron isn't on the team we wouldn't even make it to the 8th seed
njd whaaaaat are you Talking About bro? Im out man
njd he has a point
Gsw bench has been playing great in these playoffs david west,ian,mcgee,iggy shaun n now barnes is back idk why people keep saying gsw have no bench.
It's very debatable especially since they have the best player in the world. However, it's very hard to try to make a case against Golden State and the fire power they have.
The Cavs might very well be the best team in the 2017 Eastern Conference Playoffs. In the NBA, that remains to be seen.
kaferrat lol. The Cavs are without a doubt the best team in the east. The East is trash.
And GS bench is easily as good as it was last year in terms of consistency and defense. They aren't quite as dominant on the perimeter shooting with their bench as they once were, but KD makes up for that difference. Also Klay and Steph and KD get all the extra 3's their bench used to take because now Javale and Clark and Iggy and West all take up some of those shots, just usally from 2.
Hate Lebron. But I have a weird feeling they will take it this year. Either way, gonna be a great Finals series.
It better be. KD ruined everything but the finals this year.
He will SAS will pick GSW to win
Tim Whitley I guarantee cavs will win in 6 not even close. I'll bet everything u name.
The only way they'll win again is if Curry and Iguadala is injured again and Draymond get suspended. And they bring back Bogut to get injured again and bring back H. Barnes to shoot nothing but bricks again. Y'all really think this is the same Warriors from last yr. They got 7 to 8 new players on that team who are hungry for that chip and they just need to win 11 more games to taste it. They're chasing this yr not protecting, it's a difference.
Amazon get your excuses ready lol
Why do people keep saying the warriors have no bench? Iguodala, Livingston, West, Mcgee, Barnes and Clarke provide plenty off the bench. Plus when you have 4 all stars you can always afford to have at least 1 on the court. Golden State haven't even got out of 2nd gear yet and they still look unstoppable. It's gonna take something special from Lebron to beat this team.
Warriors scared of Cleveland so they had to get KD? Did they not watch the finals before bogut went down???
Jay Luke they are scared, they recruited the 2nd best player on the planet after almost winning. Would ask your brother to help you fight the boy you almost knocked out
We gotta give credit to Skip. He's committed to being a pro troll
who is this clown? does he actually think the Cavs would sweep GS? or did I understand that wrong?
Kash that man had a lot of dumb points idc who you are you would of let KD join your team tf LeBron the main one recruiting but skip didn't let him have it because I think he new to the network
He said he doesn't see a GS sweep of the Cavs like people were saying when the Cavs were losing.
Kash , I asked the same thing. Who is this dude.Go Warriors..
He used to be a good player in the NBA, which makes his points more confusing
Cedric Ceballos balled with the Lakers.
Cedric Ceballos! Haven't seen him in forever! Lakers Fam!
joy is more of a skip fan than Shannon is a lebron fan
she agrees with everything skip does and says
@02:27 Church momment LMAO
Anfmethodjor I laughed so hard there 😂😂😂
So we going to ignore the fact the refs aren't giving the raps any calls
gangboy40 of course they are gonna ignore that but if it was the other way around they would be complaining
gangboy40 the refs are the reason derozen cant score also
hes getting double teamed and tripple team
Warriors look unstoppable ... they win games by the time the first quarter is over , they're up 30. It's crazy
Javalle, iguodala, west, Livingston, Barnes, Clark... Warriors have no bench?😂
I like Cedric a lot. He has extremely good insight
Cedric Ceballos makes some of the weakest points ever
Im just excited for the Boston v Cleveland ECF.... thats gonna be a good series if Boston keeps riding the emotion of IT4, they are playing w a lot of heart right now...
its so true the warriors are scared of lebron and why skip making it sound like the cavs are taking on easy teams when the warriors faced Portland and the jazz lol
The east have beat the west over and over again and the warriors said they where not chasing it.. And thats why a team from the east beat a 73-9 team in the finals... The west is so easy they got so many wins because the other team don't compete so they get easy wins....

Carlos Laboy you keep bringing up 73-9 like the regular season matters. when the warriors were healthy they were up 3-1 about eliliminate the Cavs and Bogut injured. that is the only reason y'all won
Carlos Laboy LeBron averaged and kyrie averaged 6 less point when bogut played and y'all were down 3-1. y'all were finna get eliminated and then he got injured. mind u he was their only rim protector
Carlos Laboy jazz are better than both of Cle opponents
Cj Houston and thats why they getting blown out tf is you talking about they not better
Finals always ends right b4 or on my birthday and makes my day either happy or sad
GSW are better on offense and defense. Cavs are playing the raptors which is why they look so good. Derozan had 5pts lmaoo
dombees did you watch the game? There is a reason he had 5 points
Michael Weigand derozan does this all the time in playoffs. He didn't even make a FG in game 3 against the bucks.
dombees derozan have had like ten 5 point games this season!!😆
i know that the defense was good on derozan, but thats no excuse. he should of at least got to the line or something
dombees lmao warriors bandwagon fan now you say cavs aren't playing good defense and then you said DeRozan should of went to the line lmao foh
I have been a fan of the NBA since the 80s and I think this would have been the true result if there are no injuries/suspensions in the finals.
2015: Warriors, simply because the Cavs doesn't know how to use Love back then.
2016: Warriors, healthy Bogut and 100% Curry plus no Draymond suspension which led to the Cavs getting momentum in the series.
2017: Cavs, I think that Lebron would play the best finals of his career and carry the Cavs to the championship and get his revenge on the Warriors.
Again, that's just my opinion.
i'm a LBJ fan but no it's not close. Warriors, Spurs and Rockets are much better
Kevin Khuu Warriors yeah spurs I dunno rockets no
I like that!! My prayer is to see both teams healthy. Since Cleveland is the best team, we, warriors fans, don't wanna hear excuses about 4 all stars in the same team. Y'all are the best team and have the best player in the world 👏👏. Let's see if you can beat us 4 times when everybody is healthy.
I would hope the warriors are better. If they don't win the finals this year they are the biggest joke of a franchise in any sport
b4daa that would be the knicks and clippers
Well they were injured #Facts!!!!Lebron almost beat them by his self!!!!!
b4daa so what about LeBron James Heat in 2011?
Desmond Christian that heat team didnt win 73 games or make it to back to back finals or have 4 all stars or a finals mvp on the bench or have 2 mvps that are top 5 players that played each other in the conference finals but nice try
James Lenzy your right they didn't have that. But in all of basketball what they did have was the most dominant team in all sports that year. Am I right or wrong? This 73 win team stuff is over rated considering how many actual good teams were there last year. That's ready for a title Maybe 3 or 4?
And don't get me started on this MVP bs. When LeBron came to south beach he wasn't playing with any old scrubs. It was still a prime Dwayne and Very good Chris bosh let's be clear on that. They by far had the better team in finals and should have won. I'm not excusing if Durant them lose because they are in a similar place but if they do so happen to lose you can't give LeBron a pass and not Durant.
Remember that moment when Skip said PJ Tucker was a LeBron Stopper? LMFAO
Skeeeeeeeeeup
i hate the disrespect to steph curry. he didnt need any more help, last year was just unlucky with injuries and suspensions. last years team is capable of beating the cavs no doubt.
The Eastern Conference is weak.
dayum12 if its so week why didnt kd join an east team. No top 5 player in the league will go east because they know lbj will send them home like he did the best in the west last year
***** that was the past
And so is the western conference!!!
MR. SINGLE-N-HAPPY lol
MR. SINGLE-N-HAPPY at least the West has super stars on other teams...east 0 superstars not on the Cavs
The Cavs look great because they've recommitted themselves Defensively. They obviously can score, they got Bron, Kyrie, Kev & D-Will can come in and let them play off the ball. Their issue was Defensive effort. Plus they know how to guard Golden State.
The Raptors have 3 All-Stars, that's how good LeBron is when you can look at a team with 3 All-Stars and say "they're not that good" LOL
Heat Lifer lmao fr
Heat Lifer they have only one all star, derozan. Lowry and Ibaka aren't all stars this year. And they are extremely week on an all star level
If Toronto was in the western conference they'd have 0 all stars
Who's the 3rd all star?
Lowry wouldn't be an all star level in the West. I mean, if Lillard and CJ isn't, no way will Lowry.
My bad 2 All-Stars, Serge isn't an All-Star he was in the All-Star Dunk contest not the game.
Lol but now it matters which conference you're an All-Star? Arguably Kyrie or Love wouldn't be an All-Star with KAT/Anthony Davis/Cousins and Steph/Harden/Triple Double Westbrook.
So does LeBron not have help? Or does he have a superteam?
People keep creating different arguments about this stuff that ends up hurting their own argument lol
Ceballos made more sense in one take than la shannon and skip together all year !
There is a team called Golden State Warriors.
There facing trash teams, they have the easiest path to the WCF
Mustang XC100 they earned that by getting the 1st seed
ParakramND Still have the easiest path, just wait until they actually face real competition.
Mustang XC100 don't even say that like LeBron doesn't coast along the east
Yes there is but it isn't time for the cavs to think about them. Right now it is all about Raptors. Game 3 is all about Weathering the storm and them get the win.
bruh did this men said dray is scared of lebrick this men must be smoking on bro
The Warriors are the best team right now, not the Clevelan Cavaliers.
Mr. Splashteen #SaveUltima L
Mr. Splashteen #SaveUltima W
I get it cause the D went inside your mom
It was I, Dio!! who piped your girl
No, because Clevelan doesn't have any d-fence.
I swear the cavs beat tf out of warriors lmao foh
PREAAACHHH!! this new guy speaks fire!
#DUBSDETHRONEDAKING
trevion sewell #WESTALLSTARSFAILTODETHRONETHEKING
GNB stop trolling your really reaching you know damn well iggy and zaza and David west are not allstar players
THAT SWEEP IS ALMOST NEAR
I'm sorry but you can't discredit 73-9 even if they didn't go on to win the championship. It's still an unbelievable achievement. You can't say it's cos no team goes hard in the regular season why has no other team ever had that record then?
Exactly... But haters gonna hate .
Ronaldo Fenomeno but yet they give lebron credit and say he went to 7 finals 3-4 he only won it 3 times out of 7
Ronaldo Fenomeno you can discredit 73-9 when you don't win a championship
Whats the point if u dont win that Chip!!!!!GOH
Trell Money77 You're missing the point. I've acknowledged that they didn't win the ship. That guest however is tryna make it out to be easy suggesting that no teams " go hard in the regular season" . If that's the case then why has no other team ever achieved that record? Not winning the ship taints the record but it can't be denied what they achieved that season is still remarkable and unmatched by any other franchise and deserves respect imo.
Warriors didn't need KD but you don't pass on Kd if you can get him
the cavs will be lucky to win a game against the Warriors in the finals this year, if anything LeBron is scared of the Warriors which is why he was begging for help, there will be no suspension this year, the cavs are toast.
East Oakland L
KINGJAYSWISHIII _ I know that's what the cavs is holding.
East Oakland Yeah they werw holding a 3-1 lead but you know what happened next.
East Oakland factz bronsexuals are not gonna agree tho
KINGJAYSWISHIII _ like I said before, there will be no suspension this year.
I'm not a Lebron fan but the man is up there very consistent he been good for so long people don't appreciate him
He got the best stats all he need is a couple more rings
GO CLEVELAND!
If Warriors have a bad bench, then whT does Cleveland have? What are they when LeBron isn't playing?
Not Evan better than 5 of the western teams
deharleyva bronsexual
deharleyva very overrated
OFWGKTA001 who's Evan?
hhahahah... i laughed like anything when he said "GSW" has no bench.. 😂😂
Lmfao not even close. Golden State would sweep them if they played right now GS is making good competition look weak while the Cavs are just making weak teams look mediocre.
Yo Mammas Boo W
Yo Mammas Boo Go easy on the salt.
Yo Mammas Boo Raptors beat Utah twice in the Regular Season
Raptors > Utah
Portland is good competition?
Yo Mammas Boo Raptors beat Utah twice in the Regular Season
Raptors > Utah
Shannon "Is he more special than LeBron?"
Cedric "He's not more special than LeBron"
Shannon "Oooh ok you know what, SKIIEUP" Immediately calms down*
Highlight of my day
Is this even a question? It's definitely Golden State
Why does Cedric sound like an octave high than Big Daddy Kane.. 😆😂
OMG???Did he just said that cavs can sweep now Warriors????Hahahah No way Warriors are way better than cavs!!
derozen maybe
I also don't think that Raptors are gonna get sweept?!
Amel Murati there's only two people who can guard lebron on the warriors which are draymond and iggy. But lebron is a whole different player so far in these playoffs it will be interesting.
You are right that Iggy and Dray can guard lebron.KD can also guard him.But he looks different in these playoffs so far,untio the finals,until Iggy and Dray will guard him😂😂
A month ago, weren't people saying that the Raptors have a chance of taking the Cavs in round 2?
How did that work out? DeRozan one became DeFrozan one.
They play the raptors and look like the best team 😂😂🤦🏾♂️
Hire me
Music Boy Media raptors have 2 all stars and Ibaka can shoot and protect the rim. Dominating is dominating
Music Boy Media Plays trailblazerers and now best team in the playoffs
The thumbnail is in the middle of a "SKIIIIIEEEEEPPPP"
LBJ KYRIE AND KLOVE > STEPH KLAY AND SNAKE
Jordan Cave Draymond Green is a one way player, all he does is play defence. he could never even be a 3rd option for a championship team
DeMar DeFrozen did u see him game 7 last year?
last year i would have agree, but this year? Come on kid. Its Durantula+Klay+Steph+Draymond. Only Lebron and massiv luck can stop this..
DeMar DeFrozen Toronto Canada sucks
stafic 89 Also they play team ball. Which is a good thing because unlike cavs they dont have to rely on their stars to score or setup an offensense.
They really think Cavs are better than GS. There's no way & I don't get how they don't talk about Draymonds defense. It's equal or even better than Kawhi's defense
The Cavs are better than the Spurs, Rockets, and Warriors....
ok lol
Kings Of The Vox you just throwing names in of course they are better than the Rockets and cavs haven't even lose a game yet
QBeezzy11 Against the Pacers and Raptors really 😂😂😂???
Kings Of The Vox Cavs are better than the rockets
Kings Of The Vox not the warriors
Kings Of the Vox Against the Clippers and Jazz really😂😂😂😂😂???? Really???
Lebron shooting those threes so smoothly yesterday had my jaw through the floor.
No not even close spurs and warriors are better
lol
Xx Chillxx HAHAHAHA
Xx Chillxx Facts
Spurs are trash. They are old can't even sweep pathetic no-defense Houston.
Xx Chillxx fax
I agree with everything this man said.
Here for Shannon's daily throat of the "King of Akron"💀💀💀💀💀😂💀💀💀💀
Golden State Warriors bench is better than any teams' bench in the NBA!!! Iggy , Livingston , West and the listen goes on...
"This new warriors that have no bench"... what warriors have you been watching?
Skip Loves Kawai too much! LOL!
The new Warriors doesn't have a bench? The heck? They don't have AI and Livingston. Come on, Ceballos.
the new guy speaking facts !!!!
I am a Cavs fans but I would say wait until the finals is over for questions like these...
"but skip" is my favorite line in this show
Quality of opponents in the East make the Cavs look good.
Game 3 in Portland has been the only game where it was close. The Warriors aren't even 100% and making it easy.
That's the weakest argument about regular season not counting. If you're finishing with 50 wins and winning the chip that's nice. But
When you pull off the Bulls 70 wins and the chip that's legendary. Only 1 other team came close to pullin that off. Nuff said.
Shanon Sharpe is hilarious to me. I love when he praises Lebron lol
i love playoff basketball. but hey i know comparing a regular season game to a playoff game is not realistic but uhhh the last time these two teams met cleveland got destroyed just sayin.
Why media always saying bron the KING but make him the underdog to take the pressure off him
Cedris makes great points.
Guarantee you undisputed wil not discuss the warriors after the warriors win tonight. They will discuss the cavs each and every day.
