We're talking about the Golden State Warriors here. Yeah and the Celtics aren't THIS GOOD either. They'll clearly regress. Although if they had a healthy Hayward I think they'd be the hands down favorite to go to the Finals in the East. The Cavs have a ton of issues but they'll clearly drastically improve before the playoffs. That said, depending on what Thomas does, outside of LeBron, Love, and IT, it's a bunch of trash. I wouldn't surprised if the Celtics go to the Finals against GS but for now it's hard to bet against LeBron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah I'm not a fan of Thomas at all, but he can drop 30 any given time, and pairing that with LeBron no matter how bad the defense is, has to be golden. It's funny because while LeBron has the name teammates, he really does have an excuse for playing on a **** team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom cody Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 That win by the Celtics over the Warriors yesterday has to be a big confidence builder for them. Really think the Celtics could win it all this year, only early days yet so anything can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-ALL-DAY Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Rockets are legitimate contenders. CP3 looked good yesterday and much better than he did in preseason/opening night. They could play multiple line ups down the stretch and have two guys that could take over end of games. Dubs are the rightful favorites, but these guys could push the series to the limit. Soooo is Kawhi returning anytime soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, if you're hoping for an injury. But if that's what it takes for you to win, good luck with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mossburg Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I guess yesterday was about as relevant as a November win can be, especially holding them under 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I initially made my comment, I meant as both teams are. Warriors and Rockets both healthy. I'm not projecting injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston with their 3P shooting has as good of a shot as anyone to pull off a miracle though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
