I think this is a case of Cubs syndrome.

I feel like when the Cubs and Cavs won, they thought it'd be a breeze again, which has resulted in them didappointing us

I imagine that's some of it.  They're the team that did the impossible last year, so they lost some of the fear game 3 should have brought.  They also became over confident in their 3 shooting, failing to abandon it and take it to the paint when it won't fall.  Chasing the Warriors off the line is kinda pointless if you are going to waste your possessions.  Hopefully this gets the right response and the Cavs train their asses off and study tape of this finals until they see it in ther sleep.

 

And yeah, I suppose the Warriors organization is less what I hate.  I hate the fact some people have acted like this is the SAME Warriors from last year and now they're peoving the haters wrong or some such.  And I am not happy with the NBA who have blocked numerous moves and trades over the years due to them threatening the balance of the league but the second best player in the world joining a team that just went 73-9 and almost won the championship?  Nah, that'll worrk out fantastic for balance.  Allowing this inflated the Warrior's advantage even more and kneecapped one of the only alternative contenders there was.
