I hate seeing Cleveland rewarded for canning their coach mid season.

Seemed to work out okay. That guy never should have had the job. And the players could not stand him.

Lebron is the GOAT

Apparently you missed his disappearing act in three of the seven games. Happy for LeBron, happy for Cleveland, but Kyrie Irving was the star of these playoffs and LeBron has a few more Finals losses to make up for before we start talking GOAT.

Side note: in the same way that Curry deserved unanimous regular season MVP for ushering in a paradigm shift in the game, I have no problem that LeBron got finals MVP even though Kyrie was better. This was LeBron's team and it was his storyline.

LeBron wins 73% of his games when he has one teammate score more than 20pts. Once Irving hit 21pts, I was like YES!!!!! CAVS WIN!

When Green received a flagrant foul several days postdated, you know the fix was in. This is the most disgustingly rigged series since Dallas-Miami/2006. What the Warriors should have done in game 5 is walked out, beat Lebron into a bloody pulp, and walked out, refusing to play in the series at all after the corruption of the NBA front office.

Who is more crooked--the IAAF or the NBA? At least IAAF officials let Bolt and Gatlin run the same race. It is pretty obvious that hasn't happened in this series since game 4.

Haha check it out, Curry's wife posts on LR!

It makes way more sense for the NBA in every way for the Warriors to win this series. If you disagree you are an idiot.

There are plenty of NBA "experts" eating crow this morning. Those that claimed that the East teams did not belong in the finals. That the finals took place with Golden State vs OKC. Even after the early wins there were numerous articles written about how Kerr was the far superior coach and was properly resting his players. That Golden state played the type of Team basketball that Cleveland and their isolation style could never compete with. That Lebron was not a closer.

The bottom line is this. NBA Experts are no better than any casual observer. Let them play the game and anything can happen.

I will say this...I find it annoying that they allow all the hand checking and hard screens and physical play in the finals and not during the regular season. Don't have 2 different set of rules for regular season vs playoffs.

I also despise the way that Stars get the foul calls when they get the defender to jump and then they ridiculously lunge 3 ft into them to put up a distorted attempt at a shot simply to make sure it is a shooting foul. The NBA kinda sucks in that way. I also get tired of every player crying to the refs on every play claiming they were fouled or when they are called for fouls claiming that they were innocent. Rant over.

Glad those California gay/tranny democrats lost again.

the warriors were missing their center bogut.

Losing Bogut hurt, but he didn't even play in the finals last year when he was healthy. He's not in their "lineup of death" and is not a huge factor.

Bogut may have made a difference in the outcome of this very close game.

No?

Yes because big men still matter, even to the high octane Warriors. Kerr understands this.

The most important player on those Bulls champions of 20 years ago might just be the rotating circus they had down low.

A 7 footer with a big wing span is an obstacle.

I only respect Stephen Curry's Wife's opinion. What does she think about this?

" I knew I had the right ingredients and the right blueprint to help this franchise get back to a place that we've never been. That's what it was all about."

Um, how can you get back to a place if you've never been there?

I get it, it's like an ironic play on your handle "understand the game." I get it, funny.

Bill Russel drops out? Can't really argue with those except I think Russel has to bump Wilt out of there.

I guess I'd also argue with the order. Don't think LBJ is #1 yet.

Agreed. Mines got to be:

1) Len Bias

2) Jordan

3) Abdul-Jabbar

4) LeBron

5) Larry the Scary Hairy Bird

Wilt's out of the top because he played in an era when he towered of the league. He revolutionized the game for sure, and was a terrific player, but it's tough for anyone to know just how good he actually was. Could be a #1 in today's game, could be only a #30 type.

Replace franchise with city and it makes sense. The city of Cleveland has won a championship (long time ago), this Cavs team had not.

Let's interview you after a marathon and see if all your answers make sense and you never misspeak.

Averaged 36/12/10 in three finals elimination games.
