Congratulations to the Warriors & their fans. Should've been a 3 peat but it's good. This was definitely Kevin Durant's coming out party & I always enjoy seeing LeBron lose

I was so glad to see the Warriors win...not because they're my favorite team, but just because I can't stand King James...it's should've been 3 in a row, but the Warrior's collapse last year prevented that...

Idk how he can even enjoy this that much. He's been with the team for less than a calendar year lol. What kind of allegiance or pride do you have for a team that you hated last year. Just lame.
its a sport... you think he really hated them or he was disappointed he lost?
The amount of people on here throwing out garbage like this is mind blowing.

In case you forgot. The Spurs dismantled the Dubs on the first game of the season. Only an idiot would think they would win a championship after getting curb stomped in that fashion.

It just occurred to me that per the haters, warriors have an asterisk on their first title for not actually being better than everyone else, and an asterisk on this one for being unquestionably better than everyone else.
haters gonna hate no matter what

how does Karl Malone and Gary Payton's corpse count exactly as opposed to prime KD.
so you saying KD was right, to do it in his prime, rather then fail like Malone and Payton did?

i'm saying theirs no comparison since Malone and Payton didn't leave their respective teams in their prime, they left for a last ditch effort, rather than KD being a wuss and leaving OKC for the team that beat them when realistically, he would have had a chance in OKC or if he left, would have had a chance in Boston or Washington (in fact Washington would have been fantastic for him, it's home, Wall is fantastic and they have Beal and a good frontcourt with some depth).

I think he has made it clear, that he did not like the way OKC was going. Westbrook is not a team player, they lost Harden, Reggie Jackson and Ibaka, to save pennies. Owner is just not gonna spend, to win.
Sure he could of stayed, but he would not win crap with OKC, even if you beat warriors, Lebron would just destroy them in finals. Honestly he did not have any other real options.

OKC would have pushed this cavaliers team, if KD plays like he did in the finals and you have Westbrook at his best, honestly it would be damn close, if OKC is pushing the warriors to 7, they're pushing the cavs also.

Do you know the context of that quote? I'm sure you do, but let me remind you in case.
They've faced each other twice in the Finals. LeBron won with the Heat versus OKC. Now KD has his with Golden State. There's your context. Now why you cringing?

Lets not act like KD's riding of Curry's coattails on a 73 win team is the same as LeBron carrying his team to victory vs a superior,STACKED OKC(okc was favoured to win in 2012)

I think it's funny trying to rationalize with a dude whose name is TEAMLEBRON....but Ill try.
They didn't win 73 this year on the coat tails. Only 67, so did Durant make them worse?
And TEAMLEBRON has always taken the easy road by staying in the East. The absolute easiest path to the Finals by not having to deal with the loaded West in the regular season or Playoffs. So...there's that.
They are even when facing each other in the Finals. It's a fact you can't explain away. Simple math doesn't seem to be possible for a lot of LeBron fans, not sure why that is.
And it's your opinion that he was an underdog in 2012. The Heat team was Damn stacked. Not sure why LeBron fans try to make it sound like he didn't play with other stars and hall of famers. Not to mention, that OKC team was extremely young. So you are probably attaching who they are now to who they were then, when we all know they evolve as years go by.
It's one to one...just deal with it.
