You do realize not every atg team played to the peak of their abilities, consistently during the playoffs right?
Whether they played to their absolute peak or not they played at a level that made them look like one of the best teams of all time. That's why they're regarded as all time great teams. GS has not reached that level in the playoffs.

He said he was fine, team said he was fine..

Of course they're going to say this. You really think they were going to come out and say Curry is injured and isn't capable of playing like he normally does? Curry even said during the Portland and Thunder series his knee wasn't 100%, but it didn't matter because there were 'no excuses', and that these things happen during the PS.
He had bad games before the knee injury where he looked a lot like his performances in the finals and WCF, wasn't injured.
When was this? :jbhmm:

Nope, the responses from Curry and Kerr were not "yeah its tough but there's no excuses" aka I'm injured. It was more "lol look guys...there is no injury, sometimes guys just have bad games." You could tell in reading their responses and body language.

As for your question, what are you asking? Curry's had bad games before where he wasn't hurt, just had a bad game. You're questioning that?

So because they didn't play to the peak of their abilities consistently (which could be argued as the GOAT team) that somehow they don't measure up with other atg teams? There are atg teams in the past that only won title and didn't always play to the peak of their abilities too. This is the problem when we talk about the now and the past - we exaggerate the bad of today and romanticize the good of the past instead of looking at both with a clear lens.

If you had been paying attention Curry said his knee wasn't 100% and that he just had to just deal with it. He didn't want to make an issue over it.
As for your question, what are you asking? Curry's had bad games before where he wasn't hurt, just had a bad game. You're questioning that?
I'm asking about when he had bad games/where his mobility was limited during these playoffs (before said injury)...

Even without caring, they would have been in the 60s.


The way the Cavs handle the East in the playoffs should tell people just how good/dominant they are, but these dumb fukks use that as a means of putting the East down.
The east is still trash. The Cavs winning doesn't change that

Those teams that are atg after one year...did they dominate the regular AND postseason? Cause neither warrior team did both.
No. And not all teams that won multiple titles were dominant through the regular and postseason either. ATG teams don't just go and sweep or win 4-1 in every round in the playoffs while running at full power. Most ATG teams have their struggles/ups and downs and different circumstances they have to get through in the PS. It's how sports works.

Even after they won the title people were still discrediting the East :dead:


The Hawks & Pistons were better early round opponents than the Blazers & Rockets, shyt made no sense.
OKC for one series is tougher than playing Detroit,Atlanta, and Toronto

No way the Cavs would switch their path with the Warriors

So basically what others were doing all throughout the last two seasons when they kept bringing up all the "luck" the Warriors had, and how the league was "rigged" in their favor?

:ehh:

Watch it white man.

Warriors are an all time great team on the merit of winning 73 games alone, whether ya'll like it or not

To be honest they might be the first all time team to have their own sub category. Because unfortunately for them the black mark they received from losing will disallow them from being compared to the other all time teams.

The journey and overall accomplishments allows u to jostle and rank other all time teams but the one thing they all have in common is the hardware. Which makes it impossible for these Warriors to be ranked.

It's cruel. One win and the"re forever immortalized and have a strong argument for the best ever. Instead they took one loss and all the the records they set, the dominance they displayed gets overshadowed by being the first finals team to blow a 3-1 lead.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
The east is still trash. The Cavs winning doesn't change that

World champs came from the "trash" conference and went 6 in the ECF.

Cavs would have beaten the Thunder in 6, they had homecourt and are just a better team than them.
