NBA Finals 2016

I'm not a LeBron fan but this is impressive:
Don't get me wrong, that is an absolute insane stat line.

I think that also speaks to how good of team the Warriors are, to be going home tied 3-3 with the MVP not playing up to his standards (and fouling out on three bad calls), Draymond suspended a game, and Bogut out.

 
all of the butthurt cries for conspiracy theories are hilarious

The NBA made the Warriors play awful and sloppy in 3 possible closeout games. The NBA made Steph Curry disappear at times and shoot a much lower than usual percentage. They forced Lebron James to have 41, 41, and a triple double in the last 3 games. Nevermind that missed foul on Iguadala on James' late drive, that was obviously just a smokescreen to distract from the true master plot.

I wanted the Warriors to win just as much as any non-diehard Golden State fan, but the Cavs earned it and the Warriors squandered it.

 
Welp, here to eat my crow, despite the fact I subscribe to the conspiracy theories.

Hats off to King James.

The silver lining is we'll never have to hear about how the Warriors were better than the '96 Bulls.

Does this mean the 95-96 Bulls were better?


They were certainly fortunate to not have to go up against a Lebron James led hungry team, at least.
One superstar wouldn't beat the Bulls. The reason the Bulls were so dominant is they played better TEAM basketball. It would take Irving, Smith & Love all playing top-level basketball to beat that Bulls team.

I'm not saying this Cleveland team couldn't beat that Bulls team. Who knows? But when guys like Love largely disappear from the Finals like he did this year, if I were a betting man I'd wager on the Bulls.

 
The NBA is almost unwatchable. When a guy is as big as lebron and light breeze lands on him and he acts like he stepped on a land mine to get calls. And the whole league is like that.

You didn't watch this series did you?

This was a very physical series with both teams going right at each other without much of what you describe.

Nope I didn't, but I'm glad they were allowed to play the game, now if they would call travels I would consider tuning in more often.
