To the surprise of likely nobody, the Dubs finished off the sweep of the Cleveland Cavaliers. In beat-down fashion.
It had to be disheartening for the Cavs fans in attendance. Lord knows, they probably had to skip a house payment or two for the dough required to buy tickets.
And you know something is horribly wrong when your (home) team pulls its biggest star (one Lebron James) with over four minutes left in the game. Did I mention beat-down?
Now it would appear as if only three questions remain.
#1. Will James exercise his opt-out clause and bail (again) on Cleveland?
#2. And if so, where to? Houston? Philly? LA? Boston? How good with the latter be with LJ in the line-up and stars Gordon Hayward and Kyrie Irving coming back next year? Thing is, Celtics general manager Danny Ainge might not even want him. He's done a masterful job of tearing down the team and completely rebuilding it into contenders. Throwing James into the mix, with the max contract he'd no doubt demand, and the forced shedding of other role players might screw up the whole works.
Last but not least.....
#3. Will the Donald even invite the Dubs to the White House? Or in a pre-emptive strike of Trump "genius", will he dis-invite them first, without ever having extended the original invitation? Hard to tell with that guy. Just when you think things can't possibly get any dumber, BAM, he'll come up with something.
Nevertheless, all hail the Golden State Warriors. NBA champions. Again. Three titles in four years is starting to have the ring of a mini-dynasty to it.
And if that team stays together, given their relatively young collective ages, who's going to beat them in the next few years?
