I'm pretty sure that is not the only reason he picked the Cavs.

The irony is that the Mavs in 2011 was a jump shooter team and they defeated Lebron and Co.

And now we're looking at Golden State tied with Cavs playing game 5 at their homecourt.

I agree with the sentiments that you live and die off the jumpshot but dismissing a team's chance to win a finals simply because they're a jump shooter is too narrow minded. Especially if the other team they're facing is riddled with injuries.

@ Chris: Warriors aren't overrated since no one is claiming them to be the greatest team of all time or one of the best. They may be the favorites to win but they are not overrated. As mentioned earlier, you need abnormally high praise to be labeled overrated. This Warriors team that has no franchise history of being in the Finals in several decades (don't know much before the 90s) is far from being overrated.
