    Yeah, it works.

    What can make as many threads about how parity is destroying the league but that's just not true.

    Casual fans love this stuff.

    My brother is a casual NBA fan and you know what he does when he plays NBA 2k? He'll pick some legendary team and go against the Hornets on easy...Casual fans love this stuff, the more highlights and domination and big names in one game the better.

    The biggest disappointment in this year's NBA finals was Klay Thompson's haircut. Truly deplorable craftsmanship by his barber.

    Screw you warriors for blowing my 16-0 bet. I was rooting against them as punishment. Oh well.

    but they lose to the cavs without durant in the finals, and going 15-1 againist playoff teams with durant is better than going 14-1 againist regular season teams like the suns, lakers, and bucks

    If the consolation for losing last year is Kevin Durant, I'll take it because we're champions this year. - Draymond

    In 5 games, KD has changed the narrative. Warriors absolutely needed him.

    No one is going to say he went onto a stacked team that didn't need him.

    I love basketball and I'll never stop thinking about team-building, in-game strategy and the personalities that make this game great.

    However, I don't think it will be fun to watch Golden State run roughshod over the league for the foreseeable future. There is no collection of talent that can compete with them and, barring injury, they will win the championship every year that Durant, Curry, Thompson and Green remain on the team.

    What do you mean they couldn't match it? They were up 3-1 lol.

    A team that couldn't be matched would be a team that I don't know just went 16-1 in the playoffs.

    Even when lebron went to the heat there wasn't this sense of complete hopelessness around the NBA lol.

    Wade was declining, their bench wasn't that good, and they didn't really have a dominate force down low. And there were still teams that could have challenged them (celtics, pacers, bulls, thunder, spurs)

    This warriors team seems to have no weakness and no team seems even close to being able to compete with them.

    I'm so freakin' tired of Golden State. I feel like Charlton Heston on that damn beach in Planet of the Apes.
