    At least the heat had a shitty bench. The warriors kept their two best bench payers and added durant.

    If curry wasn't such a no show in those final 3 games last year the warriors would be sitting on a 3 peat

    Well if you want to play the "if" game... If Warriors won last year, KD wasn't going to sign there. Good chance they still win this season anyways, but would have been up for debate at least.

    Why do you think KD wouldn't have signed there had the Warriors won last year?

    they swept the west and lost 1 game in their championship run. honestly, I would be bored watching the Warriors if they were my team. Part of pro basketball is the competition and when it's not there it's really not fun. Think about how great it was to come back against the Clippers and all the 3-1 come backs the Rockets had to go through in order to win their championships. however, when the championship is certain what's the point?

    Honestly I feel like I'm not the only one who just left the games on with low volume when they were home and didn't really pay attention to them. I found myself leaving close games all the time to go do something else not giving a **** and it's the NBA finals.

    Durant is a fake star with a fake ring.

    Congrats to Curry Durant Kerr the Warriors and the Bay Area! I would've probably rather the warriors win it 4-0 or the series ending in 7 great games, but it was still entertaining IMO, due to the brillance of curry and durant in games 1,2,3 and 5 and the greatness of Lebron and Irving in games 3 and 4, actually make that every game for Durant and Lebron.

    Durant was clearly the MVP for the warriors and despite bring a huge Curry fan and a much bigger fan of last years warriors team, I don't think they would've beaten the Cavs without Durant this season, let alone get up 3-1. Lebron again showed why he is the NBA's best player. Dude is just unbelievably great. Curry had a great Finals, redeeming himself for last years series despite being slightly off with his 3 point shot.

    For those who didn't watch or hated the finals, unfortunately for those poor viewers, this programing is unlikely to change next year or even the year after.

    Westbrook said after the game, "I'm watching the Kardisah..I'm the real MVP. "

    it's me myself and I. I don't know this team concept y'all talking about. Give me MVP over Harden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    WB, Harden, KD...they should have 5 Championship together and KD is the only one with a championship out of the 3 great players and 3 MVP players.... WOW OKC kicking themself....They could have kept Harden if they offered Harden $60 million instead of $56 millions.

    $1 million a year was the only difference that changed NBA legacy and history

    I hope the Golden State Warriors ability to play selfless ball in a generation of "I've gotta get mine" changes the game moving forwardP o
