"I've played against four Hall of Famers as well, too, with Manu, Kawhi, Tony (Parker) and Timmy D on the same team," James recalled. "And if you add Pop (coach Gregg Popovich) in there, that's five Hall of Famers. LeBron also cited the Celtics team who are loaded with big-name talents.
So it's going to be very challenging. Those guys are going to challenge me, they're going to challenge our ballclub. "
The Cleveland-Golden State 3.0 matchup is what fans wants worldwide.
Many believe that the Cleveland Cavaliers has smaller the chance in the NBA Finals. The defending champions have LeBron James but some said they are the clear underdogs against Golden State.
"The whole underdog thing is funny to me, because yeah, at the end of the day we are defending our title," said Cavs forward Kevin Love after practice Saturday. "We're trying to repeat, which is so hard to do."
"I think we will use the underdog tag as fuel," said Love. "We will use it as motivation, but the idea of playing into it? it's tough for me to say that is the case. I do not feel like we're underdogs. "
