Good point I’m going to stick that in my “LeBron is better than Jordan file.”

The Warriors won because they didn’t end up looking like a hospital ward with too many important injured players.

Yeah 6-0 finals (and those Malone/Stockton Jazz were tougher than anything LeBron has faced) versus 2-4 finals. Hmm.

They are always saying things like “greatest game ever”, “this player is historically great” ect. It’s in their interest to embellish somewhat and to spur discussion. If anyone honestly wants to say right now that LeBron is better than MJ was, whatever, my response to that is derisive laughter.

So you watched exactly six minutes of the series and determined that if Cleveland had one additional healthy player they would have won? I wish I had your powers of prognostication.

Since Love & Irving were injured - both were in the news in case you missed it. Box scores are easy to access these days too.

CLE was down to one player, James. If CLE had all 3 of the aforementioned players healthy and playing, they would have won.

Nice win for GS; I don’t care either way.

GS won, that’s good I guess. If CLE had more than one healthy player, they would have won.

Again, I couldn’t care less who won.

Box scores will also show you the Warriors had the best plus/minus in the history of the NBA. (Assuming you even know what that is), top offense, one of the best defenses, best winning margin, most assists, third best record in the history of the NBA (regular season and playoffs), dominated the league from the beginning to the end.

Love is a weak defensive player, Kyrie is average. Warrriors would score 120 a game against that lineup and would still be NBA champs, likely.

You sure sound like you care.

Indeed, exciting can’t miss endings in hockey, horrendous free-throw fests in the NBA. There were about five and half minutes left, GS was up by a seemingly safe margin and I knew I had time to go do some household chores, I came back to the TV and it was still another 5+ minutes of actual time until the game ended.

There’s one number that interests me: 17. The number of NBA titles “my” NBA team has. When “your” team gets within 10 of that, let me know.

I guess when one is a fan of a franchise that last won when Gerald Ford was POTUS, the normal reaction is to troll a website and trying to start crap with strangers. Way to go, champ!

Yep. It’s gonna be tough to beat the ending go this last Stanley Cup that’s for sure. Are you going to the parade?

Of the 4 major sports in the USA, I vote hockey for best overall finishes, the NBA last.

The SB, if it’s a close game second to hockey, with baseball 3rd.

The “Hack-A-Shaq” endings are terrible.
