Which Defending Champ Loses First?

[BostonGator84]

New England Patriots or Golden State Warriors?

Was going to add Ohio State into this discussion...but LOL.

Golden State appears more invincible than the Pats, but they play games more often. Will be interesting. I'm guessing the Warriors. Thoughts?

Warriors. Only because of the amount of games they play.

Warriors. Although if hand checking or forearm was still allowed like in the 90s they would be a .500 team.

Man isn't that the truth. Warriors are complete finesse, if the present day rules weren't so wussified they'd struggle to score.

Warriors, they play 4-5 games a week, too many opportunities for a loss.

They are fun to watch. My 10-year-old likes watching them play. We work hard on correct form when shooting and he's able to see the outcome of great discipline in that regard. But the comparison of them to the 90s Bull teams is ridiculous.

Pats and Panthers both run table, two undefeateds in the 50th SB.

Duke basketball.

Nobody's defending Champ, not even Malzahn.

I saw something yesterday that said the Warriors would be favored in all but 2 of the rest of their games this year, and those are the two games they'll be playing on the road in San Antonio. They really might break the 72 win record.

Injury is the great equalizer.

The Pat's are facing the injury bug right now. I don't think they will win this weekend.
