Kevin Love: Cavs are Finals underdogs? It is funny to me. We are defending our title
Love talks about NBA Finals against Warriors
Kevin Love said that it is funny that the Cavaliers are the underdogs in the upcoming NBA Finals against the Warriors.
The Cavs are the defending champions.
Per ESPN, "The whole underdog thing is funny to me, because, yeah, at the end of the day we are defending our title," Love said Saturday after the Cavs' first practice in preparation for the Warriors since clinching a spot in the Finals. "We're trying to repeat, which is so hard to do. I think we will use it as fuel, 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 don't feel like we're underdogs. We match up well with them, and I think they'd say the same about us."
