So two long semi-classic conference finals are in the books first time that both have gotten seven since the late seventies

But now of course we have to turn to the NBA finals and certainly there's a little bit of

Fatigue I guess with this matchup, but I think the fatigue simply comes from the fact that

Cleveland is by far

The worst iteration

I suppose when you consider that Cleveland has been massive underdogs in now all four of these series going in

It does seem like kind of the exact same story again, but just an even more extreme version of that now that the Cavaliers are without

Carrier Irving and it's LeBron James and you know not much else it seems like I guess a little bit of context in terms of injuries

Is another part I mean like so clearly this team at full strength is worse than the 2015 team but the 2015 team wasn't full strength

So I don't know I feel like I don't know

I might actually like that 2015 team better to be honest like at least that team defended not not that the Cavs didn't have their

The injured the injured 2015 the Cavs didn't have their moments, but uh

We as Shumpert was a whole a whole lot better than then he was yeah, and J.R. Smith was better

At that time although he had a terrible series, but going in he he was head had a really good playoffs as well

And remember Kyrie starting the series was healthy or if not healthy he was at least playing and yeah

What are the best one of the best defensive games of his career was game one of that final so and

You know they at least had Mazgov and times like they they at least had a

Subblance of a strategy, you know against the Warriors like we're gonna bludgeon you

We're gonna play big. We're gonna slow the game down. We're gonna make your life really difficult

Uh, and then also, you know, I think this seems like a bigger mismatch you because the Warriors now have Kevin Durant

You know, I'm not sure that Steph Curry is as good now as he was back then

But and Andre Godalla certainly nor near as good now as he was back then and he may not even play
