Wish the series was longer but it delivered some amazing basketball. Both teams were excellent. Excited for the rematch next year!

I don't know what would happen to me if I were a star athlete fielding those questions. The questions are so bad, that it's very difficult to be authentic and thoughtful in a response.



The worst was a question to tim duncan after the 2013 finals. The reporter basically asked duncan if missing the layup over battier cost them the title. Was depressing you shattered duncan was. Some of them are idiots.

Still the most overrated player in the NBA. Trade him for Isaiah Thomas and you would have similar results.

I am sure he wasn't fully fit, but his health is a problem in general.

Completely meaningless. Jordan was a better player than Lebron, but there's no need for meaningless stats to justify that.

Bulls would get killed by these Warriors.


Yea you don't have a clue.

This was such a meaningless championship. GSW won the championship the first week of the regular season....how can these players celebrate as if they couldn't believe it? Each player on the GSW should put an * next to this one.

Well, congratulations to the Warriors.

The Warriors struggle was finally rewarded with a championship, Durant really earned this one!

the most cheapest ring in nba history and it's not even close. warriors were so scared of lebron that they had to beg another mvp to their 73-9 team just to beat lebron. and the coward is "the servant" with no shame and came right away.

That's not true. Everyone thought they'd win last year with their 73 win season and they didn't. You still have to play the games. They are clearly the best team with the most talent, but that doesn't mean you automatically win. You still have to go out and do it and they did.

Everyone just seems to want to downplay the GSW win because they were a championship caliber team and added an MVP player to secure the title but that's just good management with some lucky timing around the cap and Steph blowing up after signing a very reasonable deal.

Ok...they will put an asterisk next to this one, and you put the L on your forehead where it belongs.

There was no true emotion or passion after they won. I wonder why...

Averaged 39.5 points at home is a few good offensive games? You guys are delusional :D
That debate should not even exist though, Kyrie played better last year, got his ring and that's it. While Curry is a 2 time MVP and we expect more from him than Kyrie

Is this sarcasm? I think there was more emotion than the first ring. Kerr crying as he embraced Myers after his whole back ordeal, KD crying with his mum, Iggy and Klay jumping on the scorers table, Steph beaming smile smoking his cigar.

Weird post.

That doesn't really make Curry the better overall player though just more popular.

Curry is arguably the greatest 3 point shooter of all times and a top passer in the league while Kyre can do those things as well and is a better defender.

Chicago Bulls rings are the cheapest ever, MJ could win them solo, but he needed hall of famers like Pippen, Rodman, Kukoc to win them.

The players & coach all flew out to kiss KD's ring in order to get him to sign.
