The NBA Finals - a reasonably unthought-through but somewhat rational prediction

This is a Fans Prediction,

Warrior in 5

I hope I am wrong. I really hope this series is extremely competitive and I hope it goes to 7. In fact in a lot of ways, as a fan I don't want the Warriors to win at all (not to mention that I also do not want the Cavs to win either) but I just think they will.
There is an overwhelming amount of the media that are picking the Cavs, and by overwhelming I mean I've seen a few.
I saw one member whom I will not name actually picked the Cavs in 5.

Personally, I cannot see the Cavs winning, it defies all logic. The single palpable argument, is Lebron James, who is still the best player in the world and thus the series. Besides him, I'm sorry Cleveland, but the rest of the team just isn't that good, especially with all the players they have missing.

Plus, the Warriors, if you have been living under a rock, with your head in a paper bag whilst dead for the past year, you may not know, are actually really-really good.

Firstly they have the best defense in the league. - "Yeah but the Cavs have been playing amazing defense recently as well."

Well sure, and I'm not even going to argue that this is only due to the childish East, because I don't believe that. I agree in fact, they have have been playing great defence. Although not one that can stifle the Warriors. There is always going to be a mismatch, because Kyrie can't defend Steph Curry, the Warriors move the ball too well, their motions are too fast and their level of Basketball IQ is so much higher than any other team the Cavs have had to defend throughout these playoffs. Not to mention the fact that great defense rarely affects Steph anyway.

The Warriors are deep. The Cavs are not. - "Yeah but like, Delly and stuff,"

I repeat myself, the Warriors are deep, the Cavs are not.

Secondly the Warriors have Steph. - "Yeah, but the Cavs have Lebron?"

Yes I agree and I understand that Lebron is the best player in this series. As Bill Simmons regularly says, "its hard to bet against the best player in the series," I quite often agree.
Although I don't think that Steph is that far behind the King. With what that lightningly fast release and extremely high percentage does to defenses, (not to mention his passing, handle, leadership, above average far better than Kyrie defense and adorable offspring), I'm really not sure the gap between the two superstars is that large anymore. Especially when Lebron is shooting the ball with percentages that compare to the rate at which I successfully am able to complete menial tasks.

This Video from ESPN gives some extra stats which explains their winning precedent nicely.

Lastly, I'm really not that confident with this rather un-close series prediction!  - "Yeah well I love Cavs nation and am heaps confident about myself."

I am about as confident with this prediction as I am with my own physical appearance. I do question this prediction. The Cavs still have Lebron, maybe their defense is good enough, maybe Kyrie's injury wont be a problem, possibly the offensive rebounding will put them ahead. I'm really not that confident.

But I just don't think the Cavs are that good. I think we are talking ourselves into thinking that they are. Maybe because we have had so long to think about it, or maybe they actually are and all these signs are telling the full truth, but I don't know. I think Lebron is the best player in the world. But I don't think the Cavs are that great. And by that, I mean I don't think they are good enough to beat the Warriors.

Camp Rondo; How to be Relevant in the Future NBA

Get ready kids, CampRondo is coming your way, intent on developing the superstars of the future. Who better to learn from about how to be relevant in the NBA of tomorrow than championship guard himself.

We all dream of being the guard that was initially underrated and then leapt to stardom.

At Camp Rondo you will learn primarily how not to shoot 3's and how to miss an ungodly amount of uncontested free throws (also known as regular free throws)(also known as one of the easiest shots in the game)(also recognized as being easy due to their name being FREE THROWS, implying that they should be Free buckets)(also the type of shot which shouldn't be at all difficult to make for a below average sized, coordinated, highly skilled guard who gets paid millions of dollars to be good at making free throws).

Along with this Rondo will be giving master classes on how to not really get along with team mates, and how to quit on a team mid series. More importantly, in a way that will get you hated by an entire franchise and untrusted by many others.

Welcome to your Future kids. Everything you hear about the new NBA is a lie. As a guard there is no need to shoot threes, when you could otherwise pass up open layups to pad your assist numbers, free-throws never got anyone anywhere (James Harden), and what is the point of being liked by others when you can truly love yourself.

Sorry for the satire -
