The Cavs will win if…

MS: Kevin Love plays up to his capabilities and out-duels Draymond Green. I honestly believe that this series is going to come down to Love vs Green. Whoever gets the better of that matchup will end up winning this series.

WG: The Cavs win if they can eliminate the three ball and make the game all about the mid range.

EG: The Cavs will win if the Big 3 is healthy and performing well.

CM: They can continue to knock down shots and play solid defense.

JA: The Cavs will win if their role players outplay Golden State’s. The stars of each team will probably balance out each other, so it’ll be up to the unsung heroes to step up when LeBron and Kyrie Irving set them up with wide open shots. I’m looking at you, J.R. Smith.

GG: They get all their players involved. We’ve seen lately that their Big Three have been able to maximize their efficiency. However, their role players like J.R. Smith and Channing Frye will have to make an impact for the team to win similar to how OKC did in the WCF.

NB: J.R. Smith and Kevin Love can produce offensively.

ND: If they stay disciplined and play to their strengths.

JR: They can out-Warrior the Warriors. The Cavs have managed nailed at least 10 threes in all but two of their playoff games. A balanced dose of Cleveland’s Death Lineup and Lebron doing Lebron things can propel Cleveland to its first title in 52 years.
