    You are pretty much making his case.

    True, but if they had made even six more free throws, the game is much closer and anything can happen. I mean... hell.... we ran out the clock with 20 seconds remaining. If the game had been closer, they would have fouled.

    Not really. What I'm understanding him to say is that the Warriors losing two of their best players has the same impact on their odds of winning as the Blazers losing Dame and CJ. Obviously, that's not the case. Is anyone arguing that the Warriors aren't a deeper and better team than the Blazers?

    I'm not going to read over 40 pages of this thread, so I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but LeBron seemed pretty chummy with us. He was talking, and smiling with Dame, CJ, Ed, even Stotts throughout the game, and had a long chat with ET after the game.
