I kind of want Golden State to KILL Cleveland.
I understand the implications with W-L record between Golden State and Boston, but at the same time, if the Cavaliers suffer another humiliating loss, this time at the hands of Golden State while at home (Quicken Loans Arena), then I could imagine things start to get real ugly in Cleveland honestly.
They are just 2 games away from being a 5 seed in the standings, and I could see LBJ getting restless and demanding they fire Lue, and/or trade the Nets Pick for some sort of help. Problem is, Cousins is likely NOT getting dealt, and DeAndre Jordan might not be either, in which case, their options are limited to mainly buyout options which probably isn't threading the needle for them in a series vs. Golden State.
It's strange really, I think Golden State would also kill us (Boston) in a Final series, BUT we do seem to match up well against them to be honest, even better than Cleveland. Of course, Cleveland > Boston w/King James, but still...
