Enough of the Asterisk Championship / Suns played injured teams BS 

Post#1 » by Wilber85 » Thu Jul 1, 2021 5:09 pm

Alright, I am banned on the General Board or I would be blowing up all these idiots.

What do they expect? Do they understand sports? If a team gets injured, how is this the Sun's fault? They stayed healthy or fought through injuries and continued to play!

Do fans think the Suns should tell the NBA to stand PAT till all the other players are healthy? Then resume the playofffs :crazy: :banghead:

Can someone explain to me why everyone is bitter and talks this BS? Being healthy has a lot to do with how successful a team will be, don't blame the Suns for staying healthy or even fighting through injuries! Man the F Up

Do not pay attention to it. People need to talk. They'll talk. We've been dealing with injuries since game 1 of the playoffs and the team didn't rest players during the regular season. All merit to the Suns.

There are no asterisks.

Just respond if you are going to at all with "I am not aware of any asterisks in the NBA championship lists". Just realgm hacks talking about it every year.

Just give the ring to Brooklyn. They would win it if not the injuries right? Why even play?

If there's ever any legitimacy to these talks, there would be no NBA championship team WITHOUT an asterisk. You can create an asterisk for every team winning it all.

Then only asterisk is that this is a bull shortened Corona season that pushed everything, caused no fans and ruined standard formats and training and created gimmick formats and all that crap.

That alone makes it BS.

But if the "asterisk" claim is the injuries? Nah **** that. That's just circumstance and story and point of discussion. But an asterisk? LOL.

Exactly.

It's also not always about injuries - how about we put an asterisk on the 2007 Spurs for the help they got in the semi finals with those lame suspensions against us and of course Tim Donaghy.....without that maybe we eliminate them and we are the ones potentially in the finals.

Also let's not forget we had to play a bunch of games with an injured or unavailable CP3 and Booker playing hurt too.

These idiots are just jealous...3 years ago we only won 19 games! 19!! Tie for second worst in the league and now we're in the finals!!! Let's talk about that turn around instead.

There's no way you could win an argument against someone who's only purpose isn't to learn or widen their perspective but to win their argument.

Man, I was going through that first one and if the Sonics hadn't moved and their fans had a large presence on this forum, I imagine we'd hear a bit about getting 64 free throws in the WCF game 7 against them in 93.

I had heard from Bill Simmons and stuff that the Sonics got screwed in that game but I never remembered everything about it.

I had to look it up just now to make sure that was right.

if all it took to win the championship was to be the healthiest team, why are teams building around guys like Kawhi, AD, Embiid, Kyrie, and Durant?
