I actually wouldn't be surprised to see Green stick with Thompson instead of taking his time on James. Green is GSW's pitbull, and definitely strong enough to at least take away some of Tristian's usual rebounding opportunities.
 
I want to see LeBron versus Draymond, though.
You will. They are far more worried about the best player of this decade than they are about Tristan Thompson.

Yeah, this is the most interesting Finals in a long, long time. This long layoff may have prevented the league from adding a large portion of fans, but it's their own damn fault.
The past two finals both had more intrigue.

Im pretty sure I'll look foolish but Green matches up very poorly with LeBron. Overall he's a great defender, but not quick enough or strong enough for LeBron.

With the way LeBron is shooting it probably doesn't matter anyway. I could guard him

That's my one worry. LeBron is gonna get hot at some point if you believe in the law of averages

You're right, CC, they are worried about LeBron much more than Tristian, but compared to Draymond Green, Harrison Barnes is a complete pansy. He'll have no shot at keeping Thompson off the glass. At least he or Klay are big enough to guard LeBron, if not all that well, but who defends LeBron well, anyway?

One of those three came in the playoffs. Good enough for the Cavs.

Cavs are 1-0 against the Warriors with LeBron playing, and that's enough for me

But hey if the dubs win, i feel for those long time true oakland fans. Theyve been through hell. Good for them

Honestly cant believe the warriors are in the finals. The warriors!

Just want a fun series, both CF's sucked

Id root for lebron more because hey, why not root for greatness. I call him the best ever so go win some more rings to make others hop onto my side

I think Harrison Barnes will see more time on LeBron than Draymond does.

By the way, Thompson and Mozgov won't see more than like 12 to 15 minutes together per game, I'm not sure how much those match ups matter.

Im excited about these Finals. Ive watched a lot of playoff basketball this year so Im invested. This series will come down to how effective Kyrie is. If he can match lets say Klay in production this will be a long series.
