June 18, 201511 yr Are you counting Danny Ferry and Bob Ferry? Bob won as a GM; not as a player. I am not.
June 19, 201511 yr A Honestly think that trade will go down as one of he worst trades in NBA history. Especially if Love decides to opt out and go to another team. Just heard he's opting out. The free agent market appears lacking top notch talent.
June 19, 201511 yr Sure, let's pretend GS played four teams at full strength. Cleveland was without two All NBA caliber players. That's a fact. Whether or not it would have made a difference we'll never know but Golden State was the last healthy team left in the playoffs. Had to help at least a little bit. Warriors still had to go out and win the title, but each team they played or could have potentially played was playing with at least one hand behind their back. Warriors are a very good and deserving team. But they lucked out on the injury front and even alluded to it in post game interviews. They still believe they would have won, and maybe they would have. But, they lived a very charmed life this season. No hiding that. Three of the too challengers had some major injuries (Cleveland, OKC, San Antonio). There's nothing poor about stating that. You keep talking about the Warriors lucky path, well what about the Cavs? Yes they has their injuries but the teams they had to go through and beat had injuries too. In fact the Cavs beat a barely average Celtics team. A bulls team who was banged up, and same with the Hawks. In fact similar statements could be made for all the years James has made the finals. Since were playing the what if game. It would be interesting how many final appearances he has if his teams had played in the West all his life. It's simple the Warriors were best team all season and now playoffs. The Cavs probay will be the favorites next year though.

No denying that either. Didn't have to go through San Antonio or OKC, which is huge. The team they played in the Finals was without 2 All Stars. What's hard to comprehend about that? Doesn't mean they are undeserving or aren't the best team.
