I dont see how that helps anything. Obviously if the cavs were healthy in 2015 they would have had a better chance but there is zero evidence that they would have won. Love was healthy all series? Pretty sure he never played the same after the concussion and missed a game. Also, if the NBA would just step up and call Draymond and Bogut on their illegal high screens, Warriors wouldn't even be in the discussion. The Patriots of basketball, who will stretch the rules however it takes to win. This isn't discrediting Curry and Thompson, who are undeniably two of the best shooters the NBA has ever seen. But come on, take off the rose colored glasses... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But come on, take off the rose colored glasses... Love missed one game which they won. If he wasnt healthy returning then thats on the NBA since you have to pass a concussion protocol. Him being off just had to do with him being off. The whole NBA does the illegal screen BS including the Cavs so I hate that discussion. The big difference is GS has two of the best shooters in the game to pair with what they allow now days. Im not taking anything away from the Cavs so I dont get the rose colored glasses comment. Im just calling out the people who are trying to take 2015 away from GS based on the 2016 results. If they can try and play the not having their full squad for 2015 then why cant Warrior fans pull the BS excuses for 2016?

When Lebron had his full squad he beat an even better 16 Warriors team. Without Irving and Love Cleveland still went 4-2, and only one of the games was a blowout. It's pretty easy to see how Cleveland wins that series with their other top 2 performers. Soxcat 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Warriors were better in the playoffs in 2015 than 2016. They were healthy and didn't have a tough road to the finals. Their small lineup was lethal because teams didn't have an answer to it. The 2015 cavs werent nearly as good as 2016 even when healthy. You keep saying cavs went 4-2 with their players but fail to accept Warriors went 3-1 with their starting lineup healthy.

Oiler FANatic Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 The Warriors 1-year loan on KD will end next year, so anything short of a championship will be a failure for them. With the cap going up to just $102M, they will be hard pressed to re-sign both Curry and Durant next summer. Unless they're both willing to do what LeBron and Wade did in Miami and take a smaller deal to keep the team together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is completely absurd, comparing a 1-trick pony like Curry to Jordan or LeBron? Does Curry rebound? No, he's almost always outside the arc. Too afraid of the paint. It just kills me when people criticize Harden for his lack of defense when Curry is just as bad. The only reason Curry gets away with his poor defense is because he's surrounded by great defenders like Draymond, Iggy, and Thompson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kotaler Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Lebron and Bryant are new two kings of basketball. After Jordan they shows the best game. We should be proud that we see them in NBA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abenjami Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 When Curry makes it to SEVEN straight finals, we can debate whether he's the best since Lebron. wiscotitansfan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiler FANatic Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 It's not even close. LeBron is much closer to Jordan than Curry is to him. Curry was only 2nd team this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curry will end up with more rings than Lebron. Steve Kerr and Robert Horry both have more rings than Larry Bird. NashvilleNinja 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we are comparing role players who played along side top 5 players of all time to Curry? Most physically gifted player to ever play is soon to be 3-5 in the finals. The King is a failure.
