Game Thread 2017 NBA Championship - Cavs vs Warriors

Idk about that, he really started looking promising the last couple months of the season. He looked confident and playing in the starting lineup really helped him do what he does well, defend, and get put back dunks.

 

It's really no different than the bulls of the 90s. The NBA will be fine.

 

Hes garbage. Three years in the league, plenty of chances to grow, minimal improvement. We saw more from scrubs like TRob

 

Vonleh was great with Nurkic. He'll definitely get a second contract unless he has some catastrophic injury next season.

 

He did average a career high in points and rebounds this year. All the way up to 4.4 and 5.2.

 

Ask for a little and that is just what one gets. Aim for the stars and if you get the moon, you still accomplished more than most.

21 years old and one of the top rebounding PF's per minutes in the league. With Dame, CJ and Nurk, you don't need another guy who needs a ton of shots. You need someone how can finish, will battle for extra possessions, can switch out on D and provides a physical presence. Sounds a lot like Noah.

 

He knew..

 

Nah. People said the exact same thing about James after The Decision and now he's a hero. Players choosing to play with talented teammates will become the norm.

 

That's...what?

The math beggars the imagination.

 

I agree with this. Lebron paved the way for this behavior with the move to Miami with that special announcing it. Won a couple titles and went back to Cleveland. Ever since that big names are always rumored joining forces. Nobody giving David west shit and he hopped to the spurs and then to the warriors. KD and Russ just don't go together. I always said KD needed to get out of okc if he wanted a title. Let's say we have the same situation as tonight, replace curry with Westbrook. No way KD gets those 7 points back to back to back with Westbrook on the floor.

 

Still predictable....and seems like it's still boring. Still not watching.

 

really puts a downer on this offseason. Literally nothing the Blazers can do to compete with GSW even with a pipedream of adding butler/pg13

 

James formed championship teams. Durant joined them already premade to get easy rings.

 

Yeah, so basically the same thing. Talented players choose to play together to win rings.

Ringzzz.

 

LeBron didn't join the Celtics.

 

The Warriors already won a ring. Miami or Cleavlanf never did and were never on a path to do so without LeBron

 

For one I am not a Lebron hater, I think when all is said and done he will be 2nd greatest of all time and obviously not a warriors fan. I think it's very similar, the only thing people argue is that KD joined the competition. I mean okay sure but Lebron started this. They gathered bosh up and won a couple titles. "Big three" concept.

 

Well, and the warriors were 73-9 without him.
