The diss remarks are worst than tasteless... Most Clutch Fans under the age of 21 I guess. I wanted Cleveland to win and was cheering for them and despite that they won, I still think the Warriors are the better team. They caught a tough break but they shoot lights. If they had Bogut to set the tone on defense, I dunno. I think the Rockets played together with all the grit and power with D12 and J.Harden on the same page, the Cavs can't beat the Rockets.
Yes, yes! All of this! As already mentioned, after having to deal with this frustrating Rockets season, it certainly was nice to get a satisfying ending with the Cavs victory and the Warriors LOSS!
Thank you for posting this, this is exactly the play I was thinking of for big blocks (last night when LeBron did it). I mean obviously that was game 6, but if Hakeem didn't block that shot... Haha, he did, and game 7 was GREAT!!! Cleveland getting their chip... reminded me of Rockets finally doing it.
LeBron with the F U to Riles. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">LeBron James says he was motivated by some hurtful parting words in Miami: <a href="https://t.co/F2WNZTsd4w">https://t.co/F2WNZTsd4w</a> <a href="https://t.co/ZJrp2PXlQd">pic.twitter.com/ZJrp2PXlQd</a></p>— Deadspin (@Deadspin) <a href="https://twitter.com/Deadspin/status/744949937411088384">June 20, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Lol, Warriors set themselves up for the remarks. I mean the media bias, the silly interviews, Curry's wife saying "rigged"... the list goes on. I do think Curry/Green handled their post-game interviews pretty well though. I think the Warriors collapsing and having an easy road last year... will now make people question how legit that first one was. Regular season is one thing, but playoffs are different. I mean everyone thought OKC/Cavs were going to crumble because or the regular season, lol. Just ask the 6th seed 95 Rockets about regular season.... Haha
Pretty much the above. I would just add that in a record season, the GSW had the biggest choke job in the history of the NBA Finals: prior to yesterday, no team had ever lost a championship after surging to a 3-1 lead. That they lost AT HOME, add extra significance for me. Yes, a historical season indeed!
Easy with the name calling bro. I was actually at that game. Sorry for calling it like it is. Lebron's block last night is a more memorable... Sorry. I'm a Rockets homer bar none, but last night's block was the more impressive play. Maybe Starks hits that shot unblocked, maybe not. Clearly it was a huge block in the history of Finals moments. But even recognizing East Coast, media driven bias, the idea that Lebron's block last night wouldn't be ahead of Hakeem's on a top [x] list is crazy.

definitely agree, that play which nobody saw coming including anyone on the floor besides Lebron himself just completely destroyed whatever confidence GS had left remaining at that point. Just an absolute monster individual play from one end of the court to the other.
Still more wary of the GSW than that Cleveland team with a full strength Rocket team on the same page. It's just a fact.....
Don't see how Riley's "You're making the biggest mistake of my career" was that offensive. It doesn't even sound grammatically correct nor competent of a statement. That's nothing really and doesn't really hold water to being offensive nor motivating.
totally agree with 1-4, not feeling strong with 5, but want to add one more 6) i have been arguing with my friends, telling them that the bulls 95-96 is better than this GSW team, maybe not talent wise but heart and soul, nobody wanted to listen to me but now history proves it for me, i don't need to argue anymore only one thing is that GSW failed to represent the West which is sooo good with Spurs and OKC, both could have beaten the Cavs had they advanced to the finals, but congrats to Lebron, the greatest player i have ever witnessed after MJ and Kobe

Yep, pathetic. I'm so happy the Cavs won...it's almost like the Rockets had a good season at this point lol
