    @Darren Doyle: not so sure – Golden State a much more complete team with Durrant in full-flight now, and if they remain injury-free (and the Cavs have at least 2 more games to play v Celtics) then the momentum GS have now could be unstoppable.

    Hold on. Did this idiot just compare Steph Curry to Kobe Bryant? Kobe is one of the all time greats, 5 time NBA Champion, 18 time all-star. Curry is a good shooter but he should never be confused an all time great. Blasphemy.
