The logic for this pick is simple. The Cavs are the best shooting team in the NBA Playoffs right now and they will simultaneously be the best defensive team that GS will have faced all year.
Lets look at who these teams have played and how those squads rank in Opponents PPG Allowed in the regular season:
As you can see, the Cavs have played much stingier defenses than the Dubs have and have absolutely blown them to smithereens.
Golden State is only #19 in Opponents PPG Allowed in the regular season while Cleveland was #4.
In addition, Cleveland is a better 3 point shooting team and rebounding team than GS.
So Cleveland is the better team so why wouldn't you just bet on them ATS and ML every game and pound the series price now??
Don't listen to what the media tells you: GS was the best team in regular season history but now the Cavs have improved to the point where they are even better than them while the Warriors have regressed.
If LBJ and Kyrie (who is now finally healthy) would have played this well in the regular season, the Cavs would have broken the 1995-96 Bulls record too.

Throw out regular season stats when capping NBA playoffs. Teams do not play with the same intensity in regular season...especially defensively. Just see how OKC played Curry off the ball inthis series...He had to fight for every inch of space. You will see OKC personal will have posed a tougher matchup defensively than what the Cavs will throw out there when this series is over. Cleveland doesn't have the personal to mimic that style. Cleveland may statistically have a better defense, but OKC is a tougher matchup.
