A Tale of Two Teams

     The Warriors are now the 2nd best team in the league, behind the Spurs. A team that they will be tested against Monday, in what is sure to be one of the best games this season. The Warriors are 39-4 so far, well on their way to notching one of the best, if not the best record in NBA history. They did it all with assistant coach Luke Walton, a coach which was the right hand man to Steve Kerr, and he was the perfect fill-in for the injured coach. They went on to start with the best opening win streak ever, and practically automatically became one of the best teams ever. Now, Steve Kerr is back, after a lowly last few games for the Warriors, which gathered up the most of those 4 losses, he has some back to save the day, helping the Warriors destroy the Bulls 125-94, where the Bulls played good basketball, but the Warriors played great basketball, and because of their power, with the threat that is Steph Curry, on his way to becoming the best shooter in NBA history, and Draymond Green, that at any moment that you overlook him, can single-handedly break up your team. So the Warriors have their coach back, and are getting better, which is really, really scary.

     Meanwhile in the land that is Cleveland, LeBron is getting sadder, because he may never have a chance to get that elusive championship trophy for his hometown. Because the Warriors are looking scary, and if its not the warriors that'll get them, it'll be the Spurs, who are once again, slowly performing surgery on the teams they face, by playing their classic basketball. Kawhi Leonard finally got his starting All-Star spot, a guy that is averaging 20 ppg, 2.6 apg, and 6.9 rpg, all while playing that tremendous defense he is now known for, he is the player that every player is at a disadvantage to be playing against, even the likes of LeBron James, who he contained in 1 (almost 2) NBA Finals. Doing this all while hitting all his 3 pointers, with the second best 3 point FG percentage in the league, with .478% 3-pt FG, behind J.J. Redick. So its looking very, very good for the Spurs and Leonard. But Cleveland, who just now fired their coach, David Blatt, who wasn't going to last long anyway, presumably because LeBron didn;t want him, and LeBron is basically the coach and GM of the Cavs, and would be if that was allowed in the League. Now Tyronn Lue, who is famous forall the wrong reasons when his ankles were broken by The Answer.

But the Cavs now have to prove they still got it after losing their coach, and now, losing to the bulls 81-69 with 5 minutes left in the 4th Quarter, has to prove to the media, the fans (who booed the Cavs earlier in the game), and themselves, that they still have time to become the premier threat of the Eastern Conference, while the Raptors, scary as ever, are on a 7 game winning-streak. Prove it, Cleveland.
