How if Lebron is still the best player in the world and just beat the best team in NBA history?
Not even gonna go here again, I've discussed this ad nauseam. Believe what you want. There's a reason why LBJ is clamoring for more help though.
Don't do it Shoe.

We already let Collector troll us from 12pm to 12pm, don't let HotDog take the night shift.
 
Lmao he's not even the best player on his team man.

I bought this magazine off ebay a year ago, and I feel like we're approaching this status for GSW. Srs

it isn't just you... Steph my favorite player in the l and Durant going there killed it for me personally..
Yes they are bad for the nba . Warriors so dominant and there's no other teams that are close to them, kills a lot of the nba enjoyment. They straight bullies and no one else has a shot against them as constructed. Can't blame them though.
Making the best team is what everyone tries to do. They just did it better then everyone else.

And? Its a team sport. I said he was the best player, but Lebron himself is not an entire team. If you took your time to watch the sport, you'd notice that their are 10 players on the court. 5 from each team. Positions varies and at this stage of the game are interchangeable( point forwards, combo guards, etc)

With all that being said, basketball is still a team sport. A single player doesn't win a title. A team does. Nobody just gave MJ a ring and told everyone to screw off. You must educate yourself on something you clearly are illiterate or quite frankly astonishingly ignorant to.

Lebron is the best PLAYER ATM. GSW is the best team at the moment. It was the same deal in 2016.... and well 3-1 folks...... 3-1.

Ether on your couch!!!!!

well two things wrong here.

First, people loved Jordan. Viewership & virtually everything soared when the Bulls were around and suffered when they were broken up.

Second, Too soon to have that discussion. '97 they had just set the reg season & playoff record the year before & were on pace for 70 again. But, again, they were the defending champs doing this :lol

Warriors are the favorites sure I agree I've said it plenty of times, but you can't gift them rings that they haven't won yet :lol we still have to actually play the games it's not a foregone conclusion
 
Back to the wall>curry thing... does anybody other than collector really believe this?

Bruh gotta be trollin. Wall is better than good, but he ain't steph. While steph is buns on defense, his offense more than makes up for his deficiencies
 
steph is ridiculous.....
also seen someone say that klay is a better shooter and player than ray but is that a hot take?

I mean obviously i'm doing a bit of forecasting man

I didn't literally mean Jordan was 'bad' for the NBA, or that GSW is actually 'bad' for the NBA. And It's a bit premature sure, but let's say they finish this season w/68, 69 wins and get to the finals. That's 3 straight finals, with their core under 30 essentially.

What i'm saying is, they've lost 31 times in 3 years. Unless something drastic happens they'll be in the finals for the 3rd straight year. Their core 4 is a foursome unlike anything we've ever seen and it's not like they're old. No one expects GSW to lose this season, and it'll be like that for the foreseeable future.

Magic, Scott, Worthy, Kareem. Study
 
Damn Zeke is at 31 a game on 48% overall and like 42% from 3....OVER HIS LAST 33 GAMES
eek.gif
 
Just me or were the Steph led Warriors a lot more fun than the current team? I remember cancelling plans to watch that GS-OKC game last season when Steph hit the game winner from 28'. :lol

They were must watch TV. Now I'm reading posts that they have 12 3's in 15 mins but have no desire to watch the game.

I'm a fan....and feel the same....didn't even bother to watch
 
How are Celtics and Lakers tied for the most wins all time, and they play each other Friday.....#'s man. 

Follow the numbers and you can predict the future.
 
Oh yea, OKC now 0-3 since Kanter went down.

He's as important now as he's ever been, Kanter slander will never be okay with me.
 
yall trippin, I still drop everything, including dates with the gf, to watch these warriors game. we were doormats for the vast majority of my life thus far. I absolutely ******* love watching this team destroying the hopes of other teams and their fans. thank goodness for YouTube, I'll be able to rewatch this era when this team inevitably re-enters the dark ages

Agreed. Russ can't do everything himself. The 2nd unit has been horrendous without Kanter. Dipo needs to play with some fire and jesus Payne is looking worst than Semaji. OKC is going to get embarrassed even worst than the 1st game they play the Warriors this year.

+1 to you man enjoy it. You and @dland24 are the most level headed Dubs fan IMO. I don't even really dislike Curry anymore. There is only one man I hate and he did the most weakest thing and I'm pretty sure you know who I am talking about

The Warriors are scary. I don't care where your fandom lies, or what sort of bias you may or may not have. But the GS Warriors are by far the best team in the NBA right now. When they're all clicking, they are damn near unbeatable. Now, they did just beat up a usually competitive Hornets team that won't be much of a threat in the playoffs, but there is something to be said about the performance Curry and Co. had tonight.

If there's someone who can't see or recognize that, then their sight in polluted.

I've said this on this board, as well as in many conversations I've had personally with friends--The only way to beat the Warriors is to rough them up inside and kill them on the boards. You need to be able to switch on everything in the perimeter and beat them up. Every team has a weakness and that's the Warriors achilles heel.

Cleveland certainly has a chance, but EVERYONE on the team has to step up big time and have to play better than they're playing now. It may take Lebron and Kyrie dropping 40 and Love and Thompson going into the 15-20 pt range with the role guys contributing. It's certainly a tall task, to say the least.

As good as the Warrior are playing and just as bad as the Cavs are playing, I have a feeling this Finals part trey has the makings to be the greatest NBA Finals of all time. I just have a feeling that series is going to 7 again.
