LeBron is on the mission again this year, and for you guys who thinks Celtics can overcome the Cavs, well sorry to say but the chances are very low without their 2 superstars. Experience has a higher winning percentage. Remember what happened with the OKC in the 2012 NBA finals? That team was stacked with young talents, but they lost because they dont have experienced the pressure and atmosphere in a playoff championship game.
It wouldve been a good competetive match up if both teams have a healthy roster.
This is like a history that is written and will just repeat itself. I was once a fan of Boston Celtics but if we'll see and check the line up, experience and path on who's going to the right one, Cavs is the clear one that's going through. I like to assume that this can be the same as last year that Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers will face again in the finals but this season will be for Cavs.
Lebron is very consistent in the East so I have to believe that they will easily win against the Boston this year.
If only they have Irving playing with them now, they might have a chance to win against the cavaliers as they have the home court advantage, but sadly Irving was injured so their chance of winning is very low now.
From the past round, Boston really struggles from some plays. IMO, correct that Lebron's consistency could lead them to finals. But I think Boston will put a little fight in the end of the East Finals.
But my team is Gloden States. Say Hi to the Warriors fans here. Hooooo!!!!
Ahh no. Not a Warriors fan!
Just kidding.
I can not see them going far since they have Curry who has soft ankles and everytime I see him jumping for the ball I always see in my mind him twisting his foot again and being out for the rest of the playoffs.
We have all seen how the Warriors perform without their leader at the helm and against a healthy Cavaliers team, they do not have a chance to go on to the finals.
They already know what Stephen Curry's injury of course. Coach Steve Kerr will prevent him to take strong from the paint. With the help of Durant and Green from their defense to Lebron, he will be immobilize in case Cavs will go to conference finals.
What I was getting at was if Stephen Curry rolls his ankle again, which could be very easy for him to do on any play being run, the Warriors are done.
They might as well kiss their chances to even get to the finals goodbye.
Curry is their team and without him not even Kevin Durant and Draymond Green can save the team from going down with depending on defense alone.

I dont think they will let him play without a go signal from his health team. This people are paid big time and they wont sacrifice the whole payment for just some games.
Even with the playoffs, they did not force Curry to play even with GSW getting hard times in their games.
He should be really healthy by now if they already let them go.
If there will be injuries that will happen then it can be a new one or just because of age.
It will a good match up. Capella is working because of Harden. You could look at how Green defended Anthony Davis from the recent games. It is a hard job but he could somehow do some work on the inside.
