The joy is buffered by having t-shirt team win. Turns the stomach a little bit.


Exact thought I had. Great win for Cleveland. Too bad they won it in those t-shirts.


They wanted to wear those T-shirt jerseys. Apparently they had a really good record wearing them.

Yall said let Demar go and sign Barnes to the max.... LMAO Barnes lost MAAAAAAAD money in this series. He should have faked an injury after game 2.

If Durant goes to the Warriors, they are not winning another title. There is not nearly enough ball to go around not to mention Iggy is 5 times the defender Durant is. I hope he does go there, it will be a complete disaster.


:lol: are you crazy??? Warriors would be unstoppable if they manage to add Durant to an already historically great team. Let's not forget Curry, Iggy, Bogut were all hurt this series. Curry barely has a shell of his former self this season since he got hurt.


How old are you? Just wondering.

20; nice distraction though. If you think GSW wouldn't get better with Durant you're crazy. If they get Durant they would have the best offensive team of all time. Good luck matching up with Curry Thompson and Durant not to mention Green. That's 4 guys who shoot 40+ from 3 and have to ability to drive as well. They could play a corpse at Center and still be great. Imagine the death lineup but with Green/Durant a PF and C; it would be game over.
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

yup - Warriors look ugly when they don't make those crazy 3's

I don't know if you caught it. But while him and LeBron were hugging, I heard Jones saying to LeBron "That's why we came here for"

I thought Lebron ripped the sleeves on those tshirts? Maybe the NBA forced them to wear to keep it close (given games 5 and 6?)

Lol they just won the NBA championship, and brought a trophy to a city that has been desperate for 52 years. Every one on that roster is going to be infamous in Cleveland. I'm sure they would've been fine wearing pink tutu's.

No I'm sure they are overjoyed. If it is true they chose to wear the t-shirts, then of course they are not disturbed by them. I feel sad for them like you feel sad for a person who wears a party dress to a funeral.

Yep, Dray was insane. He was the best player tonight imo. Second year in a row he's done this. Last year, in game 6, he dropped a triple-double.

Return to Toronto Raptors
