    Didn't we win a bunch of quarters against GS too?

    Right? They were great when Kanter, Adams, and Ibaka were scoring at the rim. What happened?

    Rick Berry..... Somewhere somebody is saying "What a talent!" Somewhere an ex-teammate is saying "What a dick!"

    Epic choke job.

    Up 3-1 and lose.

    Last team to almost choke on 3-1 WCF led was 2000 Lakers. And then we choked them out of it.

    Golden State started hitting all the open shots they were missing in Games 1, 3 and 4.

    The Warriors are so boring. Oh look, they made a bunch of threes again, how exhilarating.

    Cavs would've had better chance vs Thunder. I think they're screwed.

    I honestly don't think anybody has the chance to beat them for the next few years. If they are healthy and the league in their pocket.... I can easily see them winning four championships. Unless they move the three point line back or there's a team built specifically to counter them like the Pistons of the 90's, a defensive juggernaut..... They have a winning formula that's perect for the league.

    Yes, very true, but OKC stopped sharing the ball. And their stars played hero ball but aren't good enough to do that.

    I don't know. I don't think losing to this team no matter how far you're up can be considered a "choke". GS is just the better team. They had a couple of shit shooting games and took Game 1 too lightly. OKC has nothing of which to be ashamed.

    Curry is a little bitch. I hope LeBron knocks that dumbass grin off his prepubescent face.

    Congrats to the Warriors...Curry is really fun to watch. Iso ball lost the Thunder their advantage. In the end Golden State had the swagger! I still give the series ball to Klay Thompson...he's an amazing player.

    I honestly think GSW wins in 5. OKC was as long and athletic as GS has faced this year and they made concerted efforts on the defensive end.

    The last thing you think of when it comes to CLE is defense. Couple that with the fact that Kyrie/KLove were statistically the worst pair on PNR coverage this year and GS is going to make playing Love impossible which in turn hurts CLE offensively.

    Throw in the fact that GSW just came back from 3-1 and has momentum back on their side? Looks like a repeat to me.

    No need to apologize. :cheers:

    Frankly, I can't believe how much it still hurts all these years later. I may never get over it.
