Hours away from tipoff.

I think as the series wears on, Kerr's absence will be notable but not so much initially.

If I was to bet on the series, I would be inclined to wait after Game 1 and then get odds and bet Cleveland. I expect the Warriors to win tonight but for Cleveland to rebound and pull out the series. The key for me is the LeBron-Durant matchup and I expect LeBron to wear him down and figure him out over the course of the series.
