what a waste of time this series was. most lopsided contest since the lakers-magic to be honest. The fact that the warriors even lost once is a disgrace really.

If Ewing join the Bulls, there will be no ring.


If Phil can win with Shaq he'd certainly be able to win coaching Ewing. I'd bet anything that he would flourish in the triangle and make it even better especially with a great passer like Rodman right there in the paint next to him. Ewing would get more touches than he's ever gotten in his career.

With that said how's about you tell me how you came up with that theory though. Ill wait.

It didn’t take the Golden State Warriors long to decide to skip the traditional championship White House visit.

Less than 24 hours after winning the 2017 NBA Finals on Monday night, the Warriors unanimously voted to decline the White House ceremony honoring their Finals win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to several reports including one by CNBC analyst Josh Brown.

We support your decision dubs. Visit Jerry Brown instead if you really want to p off the white house.

22 ft attempts in one quarter is hard for any team to overcome. Couple that with the cavs being on absolute fire? It happens.

Now they'll probably never put them on again. Too painful for the King.

you have 2 top 5 players and 2 other players who are arguably in the top 10 and are deep.

The cav's have 3 players and some relative scrubs.

Kyrie is a top 5 pg and love is a top 10 pf as well as having the best player in the league. Cavs are deep too and have the highest payroll in NBA history. Instead of allocating that payroll to someone that can produce like Green or Klay, the gave it to Tristan Thompson. It's not the Warrior's fault.

Warriors fit better together and are coached better than the cavs. But the talent on the cavs is certainly there.

But none of that matters. When the Cavs are on fire AND they get a favorable amount of calls to score 49 in the 1st quarter, any team would falter under that. The early fouls got the Warriors in trouble and they had to play softer on defense and the Cavs went for the jugular when that happened.

It'll be interesting to see how the NBA keeps developing now. It's become a league of have & have-nots and the draft will not be the major changer in that anymore. Boston started the trend by making trades for stars who just wanted the ring. Next came Lebron teaming up with fellow stars. Now we have KD and the Warriors. This is the new "edge" in the NBA and the over-glorification of the quantity rather than the quality of rings will push players to do the same thing.

That invisible line not to cross out of respect for the game has been crossed and soon will not even be in the minds of NBA fans or players. To compete fairly is irrelevant, to compete to win is being pushed.I don't even blame KD either. He saw Lebron do it & get away with it, so why not him?

Spanning the last 10 years the highest quality of champions imo goes like:
1. 2011 Dallas
2. 2014 Spurs
3. 2010 Lakers
4. 2015 Warriors
5. 2008 Celtics
6. 2016 Cavs
7. 2009 Lakers
8. 2013 Heat
9. 2012 Heat
10. 2017 Warriors

If Phil cannot keep Kobe and Shaq together, how is he going to keep MJ and Ewing together?

Winning requires a lot more than just stats add together. It requires everyone to buy into their assigned role and the system.
