yea it will take a miracle to beat these guys, Houston almost got lucky.



Houston was the only one that really represented a competition to the warriors. Too bad Chris Paul got injured in game 5 when they were up 3 to 2.



Well that went more or less as expected. Sadly the Cavs have no maneuvering capabilities with regards to beefing up their roster so it honestly feels like LeBron almost has to leave.

Now the question is, where to?



Back to back for the Warriors, guess Lebron of War is going to a new team again.

Well due to the Cavs being in a bad place with regards to the cap and trade potential he almost has no choice if he wants a competitive shot.

 

And on a side note just to kinda put an end on the discussion I was having before, I don't think the Warriors are a bad team, they're a great team.  I just think they're a bit overblown, especially their 2016 squad.  And in truth, a good ammount of my distaste comes from a bit of a petty perspective.  We SHOULD be in the 4th year of an epic rivalry, an intense battle between two great and dominant teams.  After 2016, the stage was set for a fantastic era of basketball with a great rivalry we haven't had in some time.  

But instead we got this.  Rather than the tiebreaker between these two teams the Warriors got Durant and here we are.

The league is unbalanced and in complete disarray,  multiple teams with the right foundation are trapped by the salary cap and unable to increase their firepower to the necessary level, and instead of an epic clash of rivals the finals is just a foregone conclusion.  It is, quite frankly, a pretty lame league right now.  

Now it will improve.  The the league has had these peruods before but it always evens out.  It just sucks that we went into one of these lame perikds when by all rights we were at the dawn of a great one.



Can Lebron go to Houston? I heard he's good friends with CP3.

Not a bad idea?

Just a bad state of affairs. Not sure why the league let Durant go to the Warriors. I would think keeping things competitive would be in their interest. More six or seven-game series that go down to the wire. More viewers tuning in to watch a close game.

 

Guess not...

He could, but he would have to take a pretty substantial paycut so that the Rockets can keep CP3, who wants the supermax contract, as well as have some quality role players to make up for some of the big pieces they would lose like Trevor Ariza and  especially Clint Capella, who causes all sorts of matchup problems for the Warriors.  Both of those guys are also free agents this summer. 
If not, then the Rockets will have to make a lot of trades and lose most of their roster just to get him. Basically, everyone except James Harden, and Chris Paul if he resigns, becomes tradeable.

Then James should do it. Take a pay cut and try to keep as many key players as possible. CP3 should aim to get a ring, I'd like to see him get one.
