Everything was going as planned until HE happened NBA

[MostReal]

Once.

Meanwhile, the Heat got worked twice in the finals, damn near lost to Boston and Indiana, and barely beat San Antonio in seven games the first time.

So, I repeat again, it's not the same because the Heat needed to stack the deck to even have a chance of winning titles. Even with 2 superstars and a star, they were damn close to being 1-3 in The Finals even though if they lose to the Spurs the first time, San Antonio wouldn't have had the drive to demolish them in 2014.

On the other hand, and if you really think about it, Golden State didn't even really need KD. If Harrison Barnes just plays like shyt instead of explosive diarrhea, then they still beat Cleveland, and that's with them being somewhat injured and with LeBron and Kyrie going the fukk off.

The next year, they could've made a slight upgrade over Barnes, upgraded their already ridiculously stout bench, and been set for maybe 3-4 more years. The Cavs wouldn't have been able to do anything free agency wise to combat that, and would've been fukked.

well blame Harrison Barnes for going 5-32 in the last 3 games.

There really is no blame. There honestly isn't a way that can be spun to give LeBron a positive Finals record.

True I guess

We all know Steph needs the 5th most important player on his team to ball out if he's gonna win a title as the #1.


"LeBron would have swept the Mavs if Mike Miller and Mario Chalmers hadn't gone 6-24 in Games 2 and 4!"

"If Delly and Shump weren't 11-50 over the last three games that 2015 Finals might have belonged to the Cavs!"

"If only JR Smith wasn't 13-42 in 2018....and George Hill wasn't 10-31....and Jeff Green wasn't 8-28....and Jordan Clarkson wasn't 3-13....and Kyle Korver wasn't fukking 1-16....."


Steph gotta be the most blameless superstar in modern NBA history. Cavs had all sorts of players shooting like shyt in 2016 (Love shot 36%, JR shot 40%, Shump shot 30%, Delly shot 26%) while Barnes shooting 35% from the field for the series was the ONLY Warrior besides Steph in their top-8 who was under 43%. Yet y'all constantly trying to pin the blame on him for the series as if Steph was doing even close to enough as a #1 option going 22-4-4 on 40% shooting with shyt defense getting targeted all night.

Also, somebody else did this but Steph has this image of a humble, Christian athlete like hes Tim Tebow but actually hes very arrogant and cocky but gets away with dancing and stuff like no other star would .

Windhorst mentioned that Lebron thinks that Steph avoids scutiny with trash playoff games

no1 listening to windhorst's at-risk ass

Smh. Players eat in every era except the 90's but others ate too

I have no idea why some of you act retarded like this isn't the case

It’s simple really.

Curry failed to prove everyone wrong when they said he only won in 2015 bc Kyrie and Love were hurt. He won 73 games the next year and had a monstrous regular season and even with all that, still got embarrassed where it counts against LeBron with both teams even, just like everyone said he would. That basically deaded the LeBron v Curry talk.

Instead of coming back even stronger for the tie breaker, dude went and got KD. A literal concession that he himself did not think he was good enough to beat LeBron with his squad as is.

The Dubs rip off 2 more title runs off KDs back. KD wins both FMVPs, Curry is seen on camera visibly upset that he didn’t win FMVP in 2018. 2019 they play the Raps and Curry gets his 2015 Bron Finals moment with his whole squad hurt. He looks absolutely pedestrian and gets outplayed by Fred Van Vleet.

3-2 in the Finals with 0 FMVPs. The ultimate front runner. When Kobe passed a breh on Twitter posted a pic of LeBron, Kobe, MJ, Curry saying “no more hate, respect their greatness.” The pic went viral as fukk and every single response was nikkas saying get Curry tf outta the picture. Enough said

actually both teams weren't even, in fact the only time the Dubs have lost the championship has been due to injury. 2015 and 2019.

you missed my entire point,

the 2016 loss is on Steph Curry he's the leader of the Dubs. What I meant by saying 'blame Barnes' was for KD coming to the squad. If Barnes plays average he resigns with the Dubs and there is no room for KD.

 

[Voice of Reason]

This year low key exposed Curry him quitting on the season was not a good look

Wit this fukkin virus pretty much ending the season prematurely the decision looks twice as smart to me, dem nikkas wasn't doin shyt anyway wit Klay hurt and Iggy gone. nikkas down 30 pts in the 1st Q to the fukkin Suns.......... fukk he wanna play wit dat bum ass roster for especially if he ain't 100%? To appease you nikkas? Same nikkas in dis thread who give da man pretty much no credit for deez last 2 rings but give him pretty much all the blame for losin in 2016? Foh.

And I ain't even a Steph fan like that but that's just some obvious shyt to me.

He didn't ruin bron's legacy cause bron doesn't play for championships. He plays for the fans and for his family. That's what it's all about

Bron's motivations change like the wind.

That's your narrative
