Locked NBA Finals Thread.

Draymond says Curry was double-teamed 7x more than Durant was during the finals.

Durant says it is 100% false and a blatant lie.

I do find it hilarious that Draymond has time to stir the pot.

Its pretty shameful these guys cant grow the fuck up already.

My friend was working with him when that happened. Jay was flying to Bristol (I think there) when his intern posted that on his twitter. Apparently the team left a picture of Doc on his chair when he made it to the studio.

That’s such a good story

 

[Fugazy]

That's not really relevant to what I was saying. Kobe almost 3-peated twice though. If not for that upstart 2011 Mavs team he might have had the second 3-peat.

Chef curry was a couple injuries and a rigged suspension away from a 5-peat.

lmao

It would take a lot of rings to piss off Jordan/Bulls fans. Even Kareem with 6 is not equivalent to the two Bulls 3-peats. In the last 50 years there have only been three 3-peats, two of them by the Bulls, one by Kobe. So as great as the Warriors have been, they have never been able to 3-peat a single time. Jordan dong it twice is absurd.

yeah the rest of that super team didn’t exist, all Jordcan

Little harder playing against LeRoid and not plumbers also.

He had the poor man’s Paul George and three years of Dennis Rodman, lol at “super team.”

He had Bill Wennigton , Steve Kerr and Luke Longley clearly they were loaded.

The GOAT Degenerate had a player who made 6 all nba teams and 7 all defensive teams through 1990 - 1998. While LeGoat had teammates who made 5 all nba teams and 2 all defensive teams in a combined 19 years. But yea, Super teams. lmao

The plumber argument is interesting to watch because it carries forward. First it was Bill Russell won 11 rings because he played in an era of plumbers, then it was Magic and Larry playing in an era of plumbers, then it was Jordan that played in an era of plumbers. Next it will be Kobe/Shaq played against plumbers. See a trend here? The day is coming when people will look back and view LeRoid/Curry as playing during an era of plumbers. Its guaranteed, and also a dumb argument because it poisons the entire well.

The difference being at certain points it was actually true lol

Huh? Wad alone made 8 all nba teams and 3 all defensive teams.

It’s not Jordan’s fault that LeBron can’t elevate his teammates the way a true leader would.

But by the 80s it was already not true

I guess man, if you mean the game has more excellent athletes now than say 1960, then yea, it does, but the guys at the top would likely succeed in any era. There are still guys now though that look like they should be driving for Fed-Ex. Lowry looks like he ate a box of donuts before every game. Luka is going to ruin it for everyone because people are going to look back and wonder how a white guy playing in slow motion was averaging 28/9/9 for his career. Many will erroneously conclude he must have been playing against cans.

That's nice if LeGOAT had played with WAd his entire career.

A non injured Wad*

that’s the best part, lebron trounces Jordcan in assists and made is further than Jordcan did with far less but he somehow can’t elevate others around him rofl

If by trounces you mean Lebron gets about 2 assists more per game then Jordan, fine, but Jordan was a pure shooting guard. Are you going to apply the same standard to Luka who pretty much averages the same points as Lebron, but gets both more rebounds and more assists per game than Lebron?

you also have to take into account that LeGoat has only been favored in 3 of the 10 finals he's appeared in. meanwhile the goat degenerate was favored in all 6 of his appearances. But leGoat was the one with super teams lmao

 

[Corona]

You also have to take into account that Juice had a bye to the finals 8/10 years and was blatantly allowed to hit the lab leading up to them lmao.

Interesting how many of these threads wind up being about Jordan vs James for GOAT. Have y'all ever thought of this angle: Jordan was better suited for today's NBA rules (David Stern said his biggest regret was not changing the rules earlier in Jordan's career) while Jame was really built for the old rules.

With the modern rules I say Jordan scores like 45 a game, he's defiantly 10 points a game better than Harden.
