I do live here, but I don't consider myself a GSW fan. I root for them for the same reasons I root for the Giants and 49ers - it's more fun when they win. More alcohol flows and the parties/bars/girls are better.
if GS wins it all, it will be the most tainted Championship in recent memory, all the teams they beat had major injuries and their whole team is almost healthy and contact all through the season, i sure want someone to beat their ass off, but it seems this is just their year, Gods have granted the champion to them when kyrie injured his knee again,
You're living in a fantasy world if you believe that. Then again, you didn't think the gsw would win the championship this year. Yup, but salty NBA fans don't wanna hear this. They were able keep everyone's mins down during the regular season as a result of their dominance instead of running their players into the ground.
Nothing tainted about this GSW...they are just that much better... Injuries have allowed them to make quick work of their opponents...but there was truly no team, sans the Spurs that were going to be able to beat this team 4 times in 7 tries... They ARE a great team...unfortunately for them, i think it all changes this summer. This team is going to implode...
If they hoist the trophy, they're not imploding in any way. A lot of veterans will be for their taking at almost minimum. Almost everybody wants to be a champion before they retire.
Of course, LeBron is always gonna have an advantage over most players because of his athleticism and strength and clearly he is a great player ...but c'mon, Harden in games 1,2 and 4 was far better than LeBron in game 1, so yeah he can do what LeBron does and then some! ON A SIDE NOTE: Just think how this board would react if Harden had averaged 25.7 shots per game to average 28.7 points per game..some people on here are calling him a ball hog, chucker already OR think what this board would do if Harden shot 18.4% from 3 over the course of the playoffs. Ohhh and LeBron is averaging 4.3 TOVs/per to Harden's 4.5 TOVs/per and LeBron didn't put on a 12TO show in a game..also he has other guys on the team who can playmake and who handle the ball some...Let LeBron carry the load Harden has had to carry offensively and I'm sure his TO-rate increases even further.
Warriors winning a championship? What a shame. Product of the easiest schedule in playoff history? Played every team with injuries.

With the available free agents this year, you can bet your asses the warriors are going to want to unload David Lee.

Do the Warriors have any major offseason decisions to make? I know they have to unload Lee somewhere...
