This is the type of shyt that happens when you apply fantasy basketball stats to real life NBA. No stats on a piece of paper will quantify an ATG performance by LeHenny, and the best comeback/choke in sports history. Sometimes you just have to play the game :wow: imagine that.

This is why the whole discussion silly to begin with. The bolded makes absolutely no sense. So the only thing that separates GS being a top 5 team of all time from not being mentioned at all is Kyrie's 3? Nah bruh. This playoffs proved that they're not one of the best teams of all time. They went 7-7 in the last two series losing 5 of the 7 by at least 14 points including losses by 30 and 28 or some shyt. No.

Compare the regular season to the playoffs breh.
And this is also why we saw all the phony Curry injury talk.

"Something is different, why arent the Warriors running through everyone with ease? :damn: Surely it cant just be that this is how the Warriors look in the postseason playing against other great NBA teams for the first time in 2 years :lupe: Surely cant be the same reason all those old adages exist about jumpshooting teams and the playoffs being different :lupe: Nahhhh cant be. Curry must be HURT, he needs surgery! :damn: "

What they've accomplished over the last two seasons means they're an atg team. Obviously they're not ranked as highly if they were to win back-to-back titles, but they're still classified as an atg.
:patrice:
Last years team won a chip but wasn't an all time great. This years team would've had the resume but lost. Neither squad individually belongs as an atg. If they win next year that means two rings with a 73 win season in the middle. I'll buy if they cash in.

I'm talking about what they've done over the last two seasons, as a whole. Last year's squad is still relatively the same as last year's - therefore I'm taking into account what they've managed to accomplish over that period.

:mjlol:

Because they don't uphold the traditional standard of how the game should be played? fukk your eye-test.
What are you talking about? When I talk about the eye test I'm talking about their quality of play not their style. Had GS been as dominant in the playoffs as they've been in the regular season then there'd be nothing anyone could say to argue against your agenda to anoint them and their style. That's simply not the case tho bruh. GS just hasn't played to the level of an all time great team in the playoffs where all time great teams earn that distinction.

Nobody said they were the same. Just that there's a double standard going on here. Be honest "for once in your miserable life". The amount of lies and manipulative tactics you use is why it's IMPOSSIBLE to have a proper discussion with you.
Having proper discussion is what I do. Sorry things are so difficult for you in particular.

For some reason this board, and a % of the public, uber hate LeBron.

Dude was an ATG before this series and the finals solidified that. That doesn't make the Warriors any less good, however I don't think they're an ATG team.

I summed up why last year's and this years team isn't an atg. Alot of teams did more in a 2 year stretch by winning back to back. They need 2 out of 3 years to get back in the convo.

It wasn't phony - he came back from a knee sprain sooner than he would've, had it been the regular season (to get in reps in prep for the WFC). Quite clearly his knee wasn't completely right, regardless of what mental mistakes he made during the Finals.

And like I said, there are atg teams that only have one title to their name. The Warriors deserve to be in the conversation with how dominant they've been over the last two seasons.

He said he was fine, team said he was fine. He had bad games before the knee injury where he looked a lot like his performances in the finals and WCF, wasn't injured.

The entire thing was invented by the media as a direct result of everyone crowning him prematurely and then looking at each other in confusion when he didn't live up to what they had already claimed him to be.

:dwillhuh:

You do realize not every atg team played to the peak of their abilities, consistently during the playoffs right?

Those teams that are atg after one year...did they dominate the regular AND postseason? Cause neither warrior team did both.
