Kyrie was pretty good attacking and scoring, but does anyone have the numbers on how many points he gave up? Seemed like every other play a Warrior was scoring on him.
That's great and all...but they lost by 15 essentially with little contribution from Curry and Thompson (at least in the scoring column). The Cavaliers can up their intensity (though, it's hard to believe it wasn't already upped considering they're in the Finals against the team they've been chasing for a year) but Curry and Thompson are safe bets to up their play. Well, they were playing a different roster back then. People maligned it as "broken" and "injured," but maybe Dellavedova, T. Thompson, Shumpert and Mozgov gave them something that Irving, Love and Frye don't--toughness and defense.
That's what I have been saying. Cavs would never make it out of the 2nd round in the West the past 2 years. You have to face Clippers, OKC, Spurs, Warriors...No Way they get out. In the east, it's a joke
Lebron, Love and Kyrie would be the 3 highest paid players on the Warriors. Tristian would be tied for 2nd highest paid player on the Warriors. Varejao was making 9.7 mil with the Cavs before being traded out for Frye who makes 8.2. The only reason V was getting that was because Lebron wanted the Cavs to give it to him. Shump is making 9 mil, which again is because Lebron wanted it. Tristan Thompson would be the 2nd highest paid player on the Warriors because why? Lebron wanted it. And giving up 1sts for Mozgov... Lebron wanted it for somebody like Hibbert. Fault Lebron for taking max money and telling the Cavs to pay whatever it takes to keep players around that he wants. Quit blaming Curry for having a good team as the 5th highest paid player on his team while Lebron makes more than anyone in the league. Lebron apparently needs the the stars to align to win championships because everything on earth is to blame for Lebron's failures but Lebron. It's Curry's fault he has a better team, sure. That's some childish crap right there. Not to mention, irrational and illogical. Lacking in common sense to say the least.
Which part? The fact that Lebron, Irving and Love would be the 3 highest paid players on the Warriors and still lose is their problem. The fact that Tristan ties for 2nd highest salary with Draymond behind Klay as well shows why Curry has the better supporting cast. One player doesn't win 73 of 82 game by himself. He has the luxury of having off nights because he makes 2/5 of what Lebron makes salary wise. It's a capped league, anyone talking about privilege in any sense is stupid and shouldn't be listened to but rather, ignored.
I'm stoned. What's your excuse? Sorry your feelings were hurt. Your privilege allows you to be a grammar nazi while others starve. And yes, I am mocking people saying Curry is privileged. Sadly, I'm sure three sentences is still too much for your brain to intake all at once. Better read break it up over the course of the next half hour to make sure you can comprehend it.
he has a point. I might have loved reading your thoughts... or you might have made some brilliant points and analysis! but I didnt bother to read it, because damn, it was just a block of words. like a wall of text, isnt really inviting.
Curry is privileged. Rich kid son of a married NBA player. LeBron is a self-made man, son of a poor single mother, Rookie of the Year, twelve time all-star, four MVP's, seven finals appearances, and two rings. LeBron guards the toughest offensive players in the league while Steph is out there guarding Patrick Beverley and Andre Roberson. You have a long way to go Steph-anie.
While I won't debate the fact that Curry was born into a very positive situation, you also can't ignore LeBron being gifted with the genetic freaking PowerBall of a lifetime.
To add to that, there's probably more rich kids that have accomplished nothing of substance than kids with top 99.999999999999 percentile athleticism not making it in some sport.
Why do people think having a stable two parent household somehow makes you a puss? Isn't that what you want for your kids? I guess we should all not take care of our kids so they don't become privileged. That way they have to overcome obstacles in life and become a real man.
23pts 12rebs 9asts - Lebron 26pts 4asts 3stls - Kyrie 17pts 13rebs - Love 10pts 12rebs - Thompson Considering those are 4 of the 5 highest paid players the series, the other being Klay Thompason... loooool It makes the tears of the Lebron fans after losing last year all the funnier. Curry, Klay and Dray are soooooo lucky that Leandro Barbosa who nobody wanted can beat up on a group of star players. Kyrie and Love were gonna come back and Lebron would show them Warriors, errrr nerd rage! And Shaun Livingston, came to the NBA straight out of high school as a kid and his knee blew out, but f that kid for bouncing back after a potential career ending injury. All about Lebron baby. The big LBJ. The self-chosen "chosen one". Curry is just a privileged punk, boiiii.
Haha, man think of the other stoned people... It's a ****ing wall!!!! I have Np with your grammar/spelling, but break it up some. it'll make it easier for us other high/tired guys.
