Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Everyone who picked the Cavs to win the series forgot one very important thing

    My Preds just came back from 2-0 down to tie it up at home. The people acting like the series is over are silly. LIPO.

    Your Preds have nothing to do with a basketball series, but agree.

    Great teams don't lose by a "fluke". They win. The Warriors lost. Game 7 at home and they lost.

    So far Durant has lost a Finals 4-1 and blown a 3-1 lead in the WCF. Now he is hiding behind the Big 3 at Golden State who are 1-1 in the Finals without him.

    Lebron is in his 7th straight finals, 8 total.

    Durant is clearly better. fuck

    Laughable

    Last year's Finals was a fluke ... but it happened and congrats to LBJ and the Cavs ... they literally needed EVERYTHING to go right for them to come back from 3-1 down and they got it

    Durant's blowing of a 3-1 lead to the Warriors last year is as much on Westbrook and the rest of his team than it is on him ... if you don't understand that then you likely never will ...

    If talking about KD's Finals loss as a strike against him ... what about LBJ's losses in the Finals?

    If you haven't noticed that Tequilla hates LeBron, I can't help you.
    He's a great player but not my cup of tea ... I think he has some unique advantages that enable him to be ahead of many others from the word go similar to Wilt and Shaq ...

    For players that are just flat out genetically superior, I do think that they have a different bar to measure themselves against

    So you are acknowledging that the Warriors are not in any discussion of all time great teams.

    When Durant has three rings we can discuss how many finals he needs on top of that. Magic was 5-4.

    James has been ripped for every game he has ever lost. Durant gets a pass because he's a pussy.

    Going back to back is the minimum requirement for a great team.

    Celtics, Lakers more than once. Bulls - 2 three peats. Heat back to back. James has a chance to do it with two different teams.

    But Durant is better

    Last year's Warriors are not an all time great ... they lost in the Finals

    If they win 2 in 3 years (and who knows what else they will do) we can revisit where they stand from a long term perspective

    If they go through the playoffs this year 16-0 then you have to put them in the discussion for best single season team ever

    The 86 Celtics are widely considered in the discussion of best team ever - they never repeated

    The 86 Celtics are white. Hope this helps. If they were black they'd be just another team. Like the Warriors

    I don't like LeBron at all. But he's Jordan and Russell combined compared to Durant.
