He's still so good that if you set the over under at titles for the rest of his career at 0.5, I'd take the over.  1.5 I would take the under.  But 0 titles wouldn't totally surprise me.  He's not the player he once was for sure.  This Cavs team is really good.  It's just that the Warriors are an all time team.

I was curious; Magic won his last title at age 28.  Bird was 29.  Kobe was 31.  Shaq was 29 when the Lakers stopped winning titles, but he was 34 when he won in Miami, as more of a 1a type guy.  Hakeem was 31 in 1994.  Duncan had just turned 31 in 2007, he won in 2014 but he definitely wasn't the lead dog on that team.

Obviously I cherry picked a little, Jordan, Kareem, Russell all won titles later in their careers.  Me taking the over on 0.5 is more that he's still a great great player and should have 3 or 4 more deep playoff runs, and you never know and less that he's so great it's just inevitable he's going to win another one. (Though yes he has a ton of miles on his legs)  I'd bet his team never enters the season as the #1 favorite to win the title though.
