I just came here to post that I don't know if I remember a more unlikable team. I almost posted it in the GB game thread but figured I should be impartial there, but wow...and the refs and JR Smith helped them.

I have a feeling GS will win huge in game 2...I felt this when it could have gone either way.

Really dont see what all the dramas about. The only questionable call was the charge and that was 50/50. Not the refs fault Hill missed and Jr ran out the clock

that year after the Dubs lost to Cleveland would have been super interesting

would have been awesome to see if Curry and co were mentally strong enough to get their **** together after choking away the biggest lead in finals history or if they would have cracked under that pressure and the magic of their team went away

teams would have had a chance to beat them every year, finals would have actually been fun every year

Durant ruined everything

worst part is, they don't need the ref's help to win but they get it anyway, making it that much less fun, that much more boring

Warriors played cocky early you can tell... and Cavs were playing well.

I too think Warriors would win by 15 next game, unless the refs pick Cavs to side with...

Lebron played his Game 7 IMO.... he was on point, went 100% every time he drove... he was giving it all

The Warriors have indeed become unlikable, but I can only fathom 1/30 situations were I'd root for Lebron

Unlikable the moment Durant signed. Don't like LeBron either. Yuck finals.

LBJ didn't even give the Suns a courtesy visit during his FA so I am glad each year he loses in the finals.

About the only thing pissing me off about GSW is how uninspired Durant is playing this season and how he can't seem to grab any damn rebounds!

Honestly, I don't get the hate for the Warriors or LeBron.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I want to see Bron solidify his status as GOAT but hopefully he bolts and joins the Rockets when the Cavs lose in 6 (best case scenario)

LeBron plays the game different to MJ and Kobe

Kobe was a blatant rip off MJ and a poorer one at that as were the closer and main scorer...

LeBron is like the play maker... He plays Pippen's role or even closer to Magic Johnson's role rather than a scorer all rounder that MJ and Kobe did

Pippen explained it best... It wasn't MJs role to get everyone involved like LeBron does ... That was Pippen's role.

I still think MJ is GOAT... Without him Kobe or LeBron wouldn't have a template to use as part of their game... But Lebron's longevity at this level is a marvel... As in he is a truly physical freak of nature.
