this. that is all that needs to be said. Bron stepped up, on the biggest stage, when nothing was stacked against him. Fantastic. Congratulations.

There is a difference between being fixed and favoring certain outcomes. It would be ridiculously difficult to actually fix games. Now can the league take certain actions that will get them better ratings? Absolutely.

I didn't mean to come off like it never happens we have seen instances in sports where games where fixed I get that. And this was only one guy throwing out a conspiracy imma need more evidence than that.so what about that ref Tim Donaghy he was actually fixing games. He also went on record to say the NBA has fixed games and him and his fellow refs fixed games. as well as thisIt is entertainment but as much as the word excuse gets thrown around on here I think thats a real excuse. Rigged talk only comes up when the Cav's win a game in the finals, aint no rigging putting those shots Kyrie and Bron where putting up in last night or Curry missing his thats just sports.
Sure i'm like a 12 year old because I recognize there are more realistic sports reasons a team beat another team instead of jumping to it being fixed
When they say that they just mean a series going longer. Doesn't mean the NBA is out here actively fixing games it just means there is more money in a longer series everyone gets that but again doesn't mean they are out here actively fixing games.

My problem is when the fixed talk only comes up when someone is up set their team lost and can't think of any other reasons to rationalize how there teams lost. Ya'll throw around excuse talk in here a lot now thats an excuse.

So he has only had help 1 game this series? What about the other games where Kyrie has put up 30 and they lost?
Lets not act like Lebron doesn't **** up the flow of the offense either. Dude has been dribbling the ball for like 15 seconds and constantly doing ISOs all series long. Hard to get involved when a guy wastes 2/3rd of the shot clock every possession.

Not really. Everyone doesn't have to be in on it. Kevin Love for example is told to play as hard as he can.

no lie, back in the days i always wondered why old legends such as mj used to belittle bron. i kinda thought one of the possibilities was that bron had a chance at the GOAT title but as time progressed i came to realize nobody is taking that title and mj ***** on bron bc bron a straight up ***.

Yeah I don't really understand the extra rest inbetween games for the finals. If anything it just favors the team who isn't as deep.Why couldn't game 6 be tomorrow?

I've essentially watched 1 full game this entire series because of the stupid start time. Straight up took the allure out of the series for me.

game 6 should have been Friday night, if they wanted to keep the game 7 possibly for sunday
or game 5 should have been sunday night.. game 6 Wednesday.. then IF there was a game 7, then it would be on saturday
and the games should be starting at 8 instead of 9

I get you're not saying that its just that when GS loses others pop up saying that and thats the only time they talk about it making excuses, not you just others i've seen.
And to me Draymond should have been suspended before but the NBA didnt cause they didn't want to take a player that can impact the game like he can out of that series for a match. The reason he got suspended for game 5 in the finals is cause he never reigned himself in provoked or not he shouldn't have done better knowing the situation he was in so thats why he had to be suspended for that game it was more for his actions throughout the playoffs than that scuffle with Lebron.
Did they have to suspend him? no. But did Draymond make his own bed? Yeah.
