Fair enough, but would you agree with this assessment (obviously I'm not talking about every single poster on this board) -

This isn't about what would've happened if LeBron lost - it's about what would've happened if the Warriors won. LeBron and the Cavs are being crowned (and rightfully so, as every championship team should) because they won under said circumstances. If the Warriors would've won under the same circumstances (Cavs up 3-1 when both teams at full strength, only for the league to suspend a Cavs player in G5 which is then compounded by injuries to TWO Cavs players, with the Warriors benefiting off this to win in G7) - this board would've branded their title with another asterisk.

Cavs win under the circumstances that took place = this board crowns them
Warriors win under those same circumstances = this board says it was rigged and they were lucky the Cavs had a player suspended and players injured, else they would've lost as the Cavs proved to be the better team when all things were equal (both teams at full strength)
Circumstances?:mjlol:

I've already acknowledged that the Warriors (and every other team in history) won because they got the right breaks at the right time. Bringing up those circumstances are to highlight the hypocrisy this board treats GS with.

:mindblown:

What the fukk do you mean I wasn't trying to hear it last year? I said injuries were part and parcel of the game and that you don't use them as an excuse for teams losing/winning. What is wrong with you? I was talking shyt after the Grizzlies series because dudes said dumb shyt.

I think you'll find it's the other way around.

@holidayinn21

Dudes bringing up every single injury during the '15 postseason which favored the Warriors and using it against them
Dudes ignoring any injury during the '16 postseason which favored the Warriors' opposition

That is the hypocrisy I'm talking about. How hard is that for you to understand?

Compare Bogut's injury and 12 MPG to Conley, Kyrie, and Kevin Love's injuries brehs. Stop being disingenuous.

16 Points and 13 Fouls. This is what you're caping for? You're reaching hard as fukk right now.

Did they miss his illegal screens? Sure, I guess. But if they needed 12 MPG from their 7th or 8th best player, then they didn't deserve to win.

Wow another Warrior's rider agrees with you on something that wasn't even the point of contention. I guess that settles it. :mjlol: You were clearly wrong about the health double standard :manny:.
Actually it was the point of contention - it was the whole point. Have you not been reading my posts? The post you originally quoted as evidence outlines this.

That has little to do with my argument, especially since @holidayinn21 only brought up Bogut (never mind trying to marginalize his impact, as well as using Love as an example who he shytted on during the Finals) and the fact that --
Well technically I never brought it up to begin with, and when I did start talking about it - it was only to highlight the double standard that people use for the Warriors and other teams and the fact that people were starting to feel justified about their opinion that the Warriors couldn't beat a healthy Cavs - when they don't use the same rule for the Warriors.

How can one say that the Warriors can't beat a healthy/full-strength Cavs team (after the Cavs won this year's Finals), when the Cavs didn't beat a Warriors team at full-strength either? I mean after all, the Warriors were 3-1 against the Cavs when both teams had a full complement of players

That is the double standard.

edit: That is the set of laws posters have been using for other teams, but not the Warriors. Just like they highlight the "illegal" screens the Warriors get away with, and none of the other teams who set the same screens and/or get away with other "illegal" offensive activity. Just like they highlight fouls called/fouls not called that benefit the Warriors, and not their opponents.

Why am I not surprised you can't be objective when it comes to this team? SMH. Pathetic.
