GSW is hated by the basketball community, respected by the public, LeBron's Heat was the opposite

[delta]

Not a fan of either team, just a observation.
When the Heat were doing their thing, the word "Lucky" never came up. They was hated yes, especially after 2011 Finals collapse. And they were underdogs in 2012-14 Finals.

Even after the Game 6 comeback vs the Spurs, didn't really hear people say "tired of these lucky azz miami n1ggaz". People wanted to see them get embarrassed on the highest stage.

People will bring up injuries to well known injury prone players as a caveat for their luck talk.

Well, the Heat didn't have an unprecedented easy run through the playoffs and finals. They actually endured and overcame a lot of adversity. Lost in 11. Wade & Bosh injuries through 12 and 13. Golden State had the luckiest finals run. But its all good. If they win another one, then they've solidified themselves. Good teams win one. Great teams win twice. Dynasties win more than twice.

OP is an idiot.

Some of that is revisionist history. People definitely considered 2013 lucky. But overall just different dynamics. Heat 2010-2014 were true villains, getting booed in every arena. Golden State will probably only get booed when they go to Cleveland

The only thing lucky about Golden State was them getting Steve Kerr in 2014 as it couldn't have come at a better time.

I never noticed anyone hating the Warriors IRL.

Personally, I don't really fukk with Draymond Green. He's a dikk. But everyone else, especially Shaun Livingston gets my respect (Green does too, fukk that nikka tho )


I definitely noticed that everyone hated the Heat, myself included.
