Is brons nickname former king...no, does anyone refer to him as former anything(except haters)...no. The title is true to those who hate bron...how is that not biased. Who's truth are we talking about? And when cleveland wins will you still be saying its truth, no...so It can't be true cause truth doesn't change.
Who cares what his nickname is, you cant be a king when you lose 4 times. The truth is this, Lbrons gonna have 5 finals losses, and you're still gonna be on your "kang shyt":mjlol:

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Thompson doesn't have Adams' length at the rim. Nobody on Cleveland does unless they dust off Mozgov's corpse and he gets healthy again. Their overall length from 1-5 is nothing like OKC's.

I agree that Cleveland has a better offense, but they're not gonna physically wear Golden State down like OKC did at times. I think the Warriors are gonna abuse Love when they have the ball.


Thompson dominated the glass against the Warriors last season, I think you're misremembering things, they were guarding Mozgov one on one and were basically like :yeshrug: if he scored. Thompson on the other hand did give them a lot of trouble, he had 32 offensive rebounds in that 6 game series, for comparison Adams had 22 in 7 games. They could not keep him off the glass last year, and while Love is :ld: on defense he is another excellent offensive rebounder. The Cavs pose a different thread because a lot of their offensive rebounds end up being 3s.

Love is the sore spot for the Cavs offensively, but he will pull someone from the rim and give Bron the driving lanes he didn't have last year.

Imo Okc was a tricky matchup for the Dubs. I don't see the Cavs giving them the same problems

I just don't see it for LeBron, Curry and company are too damn good, and Cavs ain't ready with the trash competition they have faced in the East:francis:

Thompson did give them problems, but Golden State was REALLY tight through three games in that series too, especially after Kyrie went down. The Cavs do not have the bodies/length to challenge at the rim like OKC did. That caused a lot of issues for Golden State. I don't see that being a problem in The Finals. Golden State is simply better this year too.

Cleveland's bigs do more pick and pop stuff, whereas Adams did pick and roll stuff. That set him up to wreak havoc on the boards. He's also a much better finisher than Thompson could ever dream to be.

Klay and Draymond had pretty poor series in last year's Finals as well.

Love's gotta be on fire in this series for them to win, in my opinion. If not, regardless of any driving lanes he opens up, he's gonna hurt them overall.
