Warriors’ Kerr will not coach Game One of NBA Finals

And now, as the Warriors prepare to start the NBA Finals, they find themselves not only wondering if their coach will be leading them into action, but worrying about his long-term health. They are now the first National Basketball Association team to go 12-0 in the postseason.

The Cavaliers are being given little chance to defend their title against the vaunted Warriors, who have been winning by an average of 16.3 points per game in the playoffs.

Can the Warriors hide Stephen Curry on defense? In each of those seasons, he was named the Finals MVP.

Heading into June, the feeling remains fresh for Warriors fans. To disappear. They don’t want to watch them play. “I always like to stay even-keeled and just play the game the right way”. James didn’t speak to reporters on Saturday either, leaving Love to serve as the team’s unofficial spokesman as the sports world inched closer to a matchup that seemed destined from the moment last season’s Finals ended. And it’s not the player who was suspended for Game 5 last season.

In my mind, the “overwhelming favorite” narrative was inescapable once Golden State lured Durant away from Oklahoma City.

Who is the pressure on for the 2017 NBA Finals?

Kerr looked like a far different person Monday than he did several weeks ago when he said that, and admitted as much. The award went to reserve Andre Iguodala.

On Jan. 7, the Cavaliers sent Mike Dunleavy, Mo Williams and a protected first-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for the sniping 36-year-old.

Irving has no time to reflect on what he’s already done, no matter how incredible the accomplishment.

Klay Thompson’s production has dwindled since the arrival of Kevin Durant, but the guard is still risky. “There’s a great buzz around, from what happened previous year and last season”. Things took a turn for the worse in December. In five fewer field-goal attempts a night, Thompson is averaging 14.4 points while shooting 36.4 percent from deep.

“Want the Warriors? Like ‘Bron said in his postgame presser, they’ve been right at the top, best team in the league for three years straight now”.

Now that the Cavaliers have officially swept the Boston Celtics to claim championship of the East – officially because despite the Celtics valiant effort it was bound to happen, no offence – we wait with insurmountable anticipation for June 1 (that’s June 2 at 3am for us on South African soil) for a three-peat meeting between the “Cavs” and the “Dubs” which is another National Basketball Association first. Curry, noticeably upset on the bench during the last play called himself out to the media after the game. That’s coming from the same guy who hit 12 threes in a game earlier in the season.

James may be starting to starting to strengthen his case towards answering the question whether or not he is better than Jordan.

As The Inquisitr noted, Cleveland dealing Love for Anthony could be their response to the Warriors adding Durant the previous summer, though things are not that simple, of course.

Golden State takes the series 4-2 and gets revenge for last year’s stunning defeat. Cleveland has the No. 1 offensive efficiency in the playoffs with 120.7 points per 100 possessions; Golden State is No. 2 at 115.8.

How does playing on the road impact the biggest stars?
