    valid point but the warriors had played without Durant and had a game plan in place. It could also be argued that there was more film for Toronto to watch. Also you are completely glossing over the fact that Klay also missed time against the raptors

    So just make it a four man team, or do you have a replacement in mind?

    No. His inclusion over any of those five (and a few others) would have been laughable.

    When there is a First team, there is a Second and Third one, so won't sweat it for his fans.

    He also played a Warriors team without their best player (Durant), without their 3rd best player 40% of the time (Thompson), and with a center that was declared out for the series (Looney) but had to play because they had no one else.

    The Warriors injuries decided that series as much as anything else.

    You could argue it, but you’d be wrong.
    It’s incredibly evident the Warriors rallied around the Durant injury and the Rockets failed to adjust the defense that they had built to stop him. The Warriors continued to mount up injuries and subsequently ran out of gas by the time Toronto rolled in. Props to them for taking advantage but by no means was their series even remotely close to being easier. That was a shell of a Warriors team.

    Because Wade will likely also feature in the decade prior to WB's emergence......lelz.

    Lol at Kirby's last few years.

    Morey managed to fire Melo's All Decade 2nd team's arse.

    He had one other all star and the team he played 2 had all stars subtracted, therefore it was like playing with 3 all stars.
