I know it sucks that our season ended with 9-points shy of eliminating LeBron James from another finals appearance. But the finals are here, albeit a very boring and predictable one from the get-go. Who does everyone got?

I'll start- Warriors in 4. And I am not hating. There is no way Jeff Green, George Hill, Kevin Love, or Larry Nance Jr will be able to stop Curry/Thompson/Durant/Green/Iggy.

Warriors in 5.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if they swept though. I just think if Lebron does plan on leaving this summer, he won't allow the Cavaliers to lose the Finals on their own court, so he'll will the Cavaliers to 1 very close win at home. If they lose at Oracle Arena as expected, so be it.

Also this Warriors team honestly doesn't look as cohesive or as dominant as year's past, which won't cost them a championship since they'll win anyways, but it may be why this series goes to a 5th game IMHO.

Warriors in 5. 

Four games that are comfortable wins for the Warriors, one game -- probaby Game 4 -- in which the Warriors loaf and goof around and LeBron wills the Cavs to a win.

Warriors in 5, only because they will get lazy and let CLE get one.

Pretty sad that it appears that in back to back years the Finals will be non-competitive.

The last time there were back-to-back Finals that ended in 5 or fewer games was 01-02 when the Shaq-Kobe Lakers steamrolled the Nets and Sixers.

Before the playoffs began I had the Warriors over the Cavs in 6 and see no reason to alter that (though it probably will be 4 or 5).
