LeBron's teams have been favored twice in the Finals. Heat were favored against Dallas when they lost and they were favored against the Spurs the year that they won. The other 6 times LeBron's teams have been underdogs.

No team has ever comeback from a 3-0 Deficit in the Finals, NEVER!
It's absurd like 0-126+, Odds are not in your favor statistically

Would this Cavs team be considered the best ever if they come back and win four in a row to 4-3?

I'd put Lebron over Jordan
Lebron would be #1 for fucking ever
Do something never done (win 4 straight, be the only team to be on record as the team to comeback in the Finals) against a dynasty caliber team, Holy Shit!

No, because for that to occur several Warriors players would need to get injured tonight
No, but it would be the biggest choke in all of sports, bypassing last years Finals and the Super Bowl.

In an alternate dimension, people would be screaming 3-0 and 3-1 memes and how Lebron saved basketball, and how MJ has been surpassed despite being 4-4 in chips.

I'm here for that!

Not that I think it's happening and I predicted Cavs to be swept, but same was said last year about no team coming back from down 3-1.
I think this will be over by half. I don't expect Cavs to be into it the minute the get down by 10+ and by half will be down by 20.
MJ is 6-6

I expect a close half, then Bron gives up sometime in the third and the Dubs coast the rest of the way

If the Warriors blow a 3-0 lead with KD on their team they should be banished to the shadow realm and have all footage of them given the chris benoit noob saibot treatment.

Mega is sayin 4 wins and 4 losses in the Finals, not 4-4 as in 4 Finals 4 wins
Jordan is 6-0, that's the # everyone measures up to
Edit: Beaten like the Cavs will be tonight, sorry BG!

There's a difference though. 2016, Kyrie and Lebron going full god mode with help from the rest of the team was enough. Game 3 2017 showed you that Kyrie and Lebron and the team playing decent isn't even enough.
I just cannot see how the Cavs can win this unless you exhaust the shit out of Lebron, and even then, it's a crapshoot. That's how great Golden State is.

Did the Notorious Thugs instrumental just play right now, during that send off package
My emotions!

What the hell was up with that Progressive commercial?
Cleveland threw everything they had at GS in Game 3 and it still wasn't enough. GS has been waiting for this moment since Jun 20th last year. They want this.

Hey FZZ what if Lonzo BBB doesn't get drafted by LaLaLand, then what?
Lebron's playing well, Kyrie and love are doing a decent to great job. But their team needs to step the fuck up.
You can't blame people for counting the Cavs out. Cavs need to prove people wrong.

Warriors winning in Cleveland tonight would be the worst. Can't imagine what they would do to the away locker room -_-
