It's fucking hard to make those shots with that much pressure on at the end of the game.

I am not even talking about that shot Late in the game.... he had a few opportunities earlier and was just off.

 

[SCChappy]

Almost like Durant joined a 73 win team and is getting the easiest ring the world will ever see.

come on with this, he's playing fantastic

 

[Ninja Scooter]

That's what so many people keep forgetting about the Warriors when they bitch about super teams. Curry, Klay, and Draymond were all drafted by the Warriors and KD came on his own.

You think these uninformed bypassers are going to let facts get in the way of their hot takes?

 

[alr1ght]

Only one thing to do Bron



Bring back the old jerseys and ascend to SSJ God

They actually have new jerseys/logo next year, so they might get new unis yet again.

 

[EPaul]

This was the game for the Cavs and they still lost.i see the broom coming

 

[Ever]

Wow son what a terrible post

Wow damn son Wow

Smh indeed

You can joke all you want but the points are still the same

Calling this greatness as if this wasn't the easiest thing to do just coast to a plastic championship but okay greatness

Post like this man just smh

 

[Frozenprince]

Almost like Durant joined a 73 win team and is getting the easiest ring the world will ever see.

Durant could join the fucking Kings and take them to the Finals.

Cause he's Kevin Durant, one of the three best players on earf.

Y'all wild.

 

[LyleLanley]

Folks want the Cavs to run shit like the Dubs are about too they never should have let LeGM trade all them prospects and youth (well okay cept Bennett he obviously doesn't count) for Love.

Yeah it made em good right away and they got a ring out of it.

But at the cost of financial flexibility and long term view.

The only difference keeping Wiggins would have made is that they wouldn't have won a ring last year.

 

[x-Lundz-x]

And Bron did in 2010.

Yup, I so glad Dirk and company blanked the Lakers that year and ripped out Miamis heart. Was redemption for 06 and at least we stopped the first round of the supposed super team.

 

[AcridMeat]

The Warriors decided to get together? They drafted Draymond, Steph, and Klay, in mid-low first round picks your favorite team probably passed over. Get over it, they beat the game.

This is what bothers me the most. Apart from KD being signed they built the team from the ground up.

This shit comes up all the fucking time now just because they're reaping success of their labor, but around 2014 they were the feel good team of the league. Hell, even 2015 they were the feel good team.

The narrative changes because people have the memories of goldfish.

 

[PadWarrior]

JR tweeted cavs in seven I saw on nba tv lol

 

[Atomic Playboy]

LMao at this rose tinted bullshit. "You had teams making some noise!" Like what even does that mean? I was there. Nobody in the world thought the Sonics or Blazers had a legit shot of beating Jordan's Bulls. Them winning became a foregone conclusion.

Horseshit. I was there too. And yes, people obviously favored the Bulls (rightly so). But no one gave their opposition zero chance to win. Nor should they; the Bulls didn't sweep a single Finals. Apart from their first, all of them were 4-2, which is close enough to give people reason to think their was an outside shot. Then again, the Bulls also didn't add a former MVP to their team after setting the record for most wins in a season... which might be a fucking clue that parity in the league is worse than it's been since there were only eight fucking teams.

 

[Frostinferno]

Wow here comes the defense force oh man you sure showed me

Wow a team of great players decided to get together and win rings with little to no effort oh wow that's greatness

Wow son the league doing nothing about it and calling it greatness and pointing to ratings even though it's the only series anyone cares about to damage control the fact that no one else cares about the other 28 teams

Wow damn man if nothing's done we're going to get this same crap for years so why even bother watching

But yeah okay greatness bro you sure showed me

Jesus posts like these just make me smh but w/e get people like this all the time

just smh tbh

I know you think you're making a good point, but you're acting like a child. Take a step back and cool off. It's not that serious.

Damn, what teams haven't rebranded now


I'm expecting to see Lucky the Leprechaun sporting BAPE at this point

Yet he couldn't take the Thunder to the finals 🤔🤔🤔

How did Korver miss that 3

 

[TuXx]

And yet next year the same two teams will be in the Finals with the same outcome..

If something crazy doesn't happen in the offseason, I'm done.

The finals is literally the only thing to look forward to and now that's not even competitive anymore

 

[Killa Sasa]

Can salt my avocado toast tomorrow morning with this thread

I don't give a fuck. They got their ring. They're going to be Sacramento Kings bad once Lebron retires.

 

[U2NUMB]

I mean....16 teams make the playoffs, it is not exactly an accomplishment.

As a T wolves fan it damn sure is

 

[Atomic Playboy]

Ummm... he did?

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Peja still has me chapped. I would have accepted getting torched by Diggler and Terry...but Peja...?

😡😡😡

 

[Violence Jack]

How did Korver miss that 3

Still got that Hawks stink of disappointment on him.

 

[Peter Ian Staker]

Durant could join the fucking Kings and take them to the Finals.

Cause he's Kevin Durant, one of the three best players on earf.

Y'all wild.

He couldn't even carry a team with another top 5 player to the finals....

 

[WhiskerFrisker]

😂😂😂 First person to get traded.

 

[sans_pants]

well i hope this means the cavs at least shake it up pretty hard next season


those last 2 minutes were brutal, everyone needs to go

 

[ColdDeckEd]

Almost like Durant joined a 73 win team and is getting the easiest ring the world will ever see.

How dare he want to win a championship.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

How did Korver miss that 3

He doesn't have the Chicago hot sauce any more.

 

[FZZ]

Btw for everyone sarcastically saying "lol yeah LeBron has no help" Kyrie finally showed up for a fucking half, and the rest of the team played average. TT fucking sucked, Deron Williams is negative cap space, fuck a Shumpert, and if JR isn't fuckballing those threes he's useless

Literally the only consistent player has been Klove

fucking hell

A 32 year does not need to play fucking 46 minutes

 

[phanphare]

never count out prime jr

 

[Afrikan]

This slip through the cracks.

Damn.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Y'all whining about the same teams dominating the post-season; I'm an NBA fan living in Charlotte, how the fuck do you think I feel?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

JR tweeted cavs in seven I saw on nba tv lol

Will he be watching from the D-League???

Proof is in the ratings. If what you are saying is true it would be reflected in the ratings. Less people would be watching because they hate super teams, and hate when super teams roll over teams. But ratings since Lebron went to Miami, or since KD went to GState, have been as high as they were during MJ's prime.

 

[Dude Abides]

The silver lining of this yawner series is Draymond is an afterthought.

 

[Rvaan]

I think he deleted the tweet.

 

[Lionel Richie]

matt ryan plays like an elite qb until he needs to be an elite qb

And there's that, he could have changed that narrative. It would have been beautiful, it could be the start of a new dynasty and I honestly still believe that with how well they played. I really really hope they come back like Warriors did.

Please. No Falcons talk. Plz.

Sorry my man, I'll stop. It wasn't sad just for Falcons fans, it was sad for sports.

Well those moves did bring Cleveland their first championship in 50 years and if the Warriors didn't happen who knows how well this Cavs team could have done.

 

[RareFantasy64]

Yo did he seriously just say that?

 

[ViciousDS]

He doesn't have the Chicago hot sauce any more.

Shit, couple years with Atlanta after he left were even locked in from deep

 

[PR_rambo]

Van Pelt just called out the refeering, my man

 

[SCChappy]

what does bam bam do if lebron goes to the Warriors :^)

 

[phanphare]

Y'all whining about the same teams dominating the post-season; I'm an NBA fan living in Charlotte, how the fuck do you think I feel?

MJ gonna win one for the land fam don't you worry


ring number 7

 

[ryutaro's mama]

I think he deleted the tweet.

That never works on the internet, tho.

 

[airjoca]

How did Korver miss that 3

How did Lebron once again evade responsability by making the pass instead of shooting.

 

[Frozenprince]

Nobody on earth thought the shambling ass corpses of Stockton and Malone were gonna beat the Bulls.

[ghostofsparta]

If I'm LeBron, I retire and focus on starting a business. If he can't be Jordan on the court, maybe he could beat him in life
