Doesn't change the fact that I am right. Especially given how the Giants played the Pats a month before. GS didn't lose on a fluke play. They got beat straight 3 times.

Salt is still in the wound I see.

You say stupid, I say miraculous.

How was is stupid? The Giants own the Pats and that is a fact.

Stupid is the only adjective to discuss the Tyree catch and the Samuel dropped INT. People forget that Tom marched down the field before that possession to take the lead and would have won the game if not for that bad drop and fluke catch.
 
It's pretty easily this.

Patriots lost one game in a last minute crazy play.

Warriors had chance after chance to come back and finish this, at home too. First time they lost three straight all season.

I barely pay attention to sports, but, really? I get that people fucking hate the Patriots and all, but 73-9 and then 3-1 in the finals? Goddamn brutal.

It's 73-9.

Not even a debate.

Series are designed to benefit the better team. A neutral site one-off game is in no way comparable.

How is truth salt? Nowhere do I say that the Giants didn't deserve to win. But to come up with this narrative that the Pats were destroyed in a game that had two lead changes late in the 4th quarter and the craziest series in all of Superbowl history is crazy. Comparing that to this current choke job is a joke. GS can't point out some fluke plays that didn't go their way. They got beat on home soil twice and lost 3 straight.

One required one of the stupidest plays of all time to get the win. The other has a team outplayed on home turf in elimination games. No contest.


The pays have two fluke Super bowls. The Seattle SB and the tuck rule playoff run. Not to even get into recording sideline signals.

So please, stop.

73-9 by far.

The Patriots lost one game. It was the most important game and it was a hilarious choke, don't get me wrong, but it was still one game that the Giants played out of their mind.

The Warriors won 73 games and were up 3-1 in the Finals. They needed to win 1 out of 3 games to capture the championship. Just 1 out of 3. With two chances at home. Instead they lost ALL 3.

This is a monumental choke job, one for the ages.

Yankees losing 4-3 to the Red Sox after being up 3-0.

Silly KingBroly, the playoffs were cancelled in 2004, don't you remember?

Shouldn't it be 73-9 vs 16-0?

18-1 should be compared to 88-18.

But to answer your question, 73-9. The Warriors lost 3 in a row after being up 3-1. In Football, any given Sunday a team can win. The Giants showed they could play with the Patriots at the end of the regular season and held the Patriots to their lowest scoring game of the season.

73-9. Greatest regular season ever just went up in flames. Up 3-1 and failing to win with 2 home games. Like god damn GS was on the verge of being legendary but Cleveland just pulled off a legendary upset instead.
 
you guys act like the Pats were reigning champs during that season too

the warriors won the damn title the season before and on the road against the same team and they still played shook x choked 3 straight games

73-9 is the biggest choke job in sports

The Warriors is way bigger in my eyes. The Pats didn't match up well with the Giants. The Giants played them in the regular season tough so they knew they could win. The d-line was just so dominant at the end of the year. If you can pressure Brady without blitzing they are very beatable. Really only the Giants and the Ravens had the defense that year to beat them.
 
73-9. If the series had been back and forth the first four games that wouod be one thing, but it wasnt. Then Draymond keepa hitting people in the dick, calling them bitches and gets suspended.

And dont forget the Warriors had the first uniamnous MVP. The world was riding Steph so hard, 2K jacked up his stats to perfect range and people were talking about how he "broke" basketball

73-9, anyone can lose in a one game situation. 7 games, up 3 - 1 and losing two games at home? Warriors choked. Pats weren't a steam roller past game 12 of that season. Them losing to a giants team that was basically perfectly constructed to beat them was a huge upset, buts got nothing on losing three straight games.

The 63 win Red Wings team getting swept by the Devils in the Stanley Cup Finals is actually the biggest choke job of them all in my opinion. Would have been like the Cavs sweeping the Warriors in this series.

18-1

The Cavaliers were actually a credible threat, despite being underdogs and were the #1 seed in the East. The Giants had no business even being in the Super Bowl and barely squeaked into the playoffs. A comparable Warriors choke job would be like getting beaten by the Milwaukee Bucks in the Finals.
 
That Giants team nearly beat them right before the playoffs and they only had to win one game in the super bowl. That giants team was flawed but that front 4 was ferocious which has always been Brady's kryptonite. The Warriors got 7 chances and lost 3 straight at the end. I'm going with the warriors.

They clinched in Week 16 that year to get their 10th win. How does that qualify as "barely squeaked"? You make it sound like they went 8-8 and won on a 5 way tiebreaker.

And I'm pretty sure beating the #1, #2, and #4 seeds, all division champions on the road, meant you deserve to be in the Super Bowl.

Pretty much everyone viewed them as a one and done team when they made it into the playoffs.

All you keep seeing in this thread is "Pats looked unbeatable all year"

Beat a shit Eagles team QB'd by AJ Feeley by 3 points, needed a Ravens assistant coach calling a moronic timeout to squeak by a shit Ravens team, were trailing that same Giants team people in this thread are trashing going into the 4th quarter during week 17.

Pure domination baby.

All I know is that the 2015/2016 GSW no longer get compared to the 95/96 Bulls. That comparison is over. Anyone attempting it will be properly mocked.

Jordan never choked like Curry, or threw a temper tantrum like Curry did either.
