Cleveland defense is at its peak right now.

And after living through the Cardale Jones experience, I'll believe in anything.

Warriors in 5

I mean almost everybody has acknowledged their obvious superiority this year, and I could be wrong, but it seems like outside of statheads there hasn't been a ton of talk about them as an all-time great team. I've noticed an uptick in the last week or so, but still. At this point I think they are massively underrated.

Playing in Oakland hurts. If they were the New York Knicks Steven A would have had a coronary by now.

Time zones is another reason. Lots of east coast peeps don't watch the late games during the season.

Curry is actually an above average defender these days. Not bad considering his frame and mileage on the offensive side.

*Slightly above average. He gets steals and generally doesn't get beat. Guys can still over power him and he gets lost in some screens sometimes.

Basketball is fun! Yesterday I shot a 3 pointer at a park and it hit the side of the backboard and it was still fun.
