I don't understand how people are putting The Mavs and Spurs over Miami, but in the same vein will kill Bron over those losses.

No one was stopping that Mavs team that year. nikkas rolled through the West like it was nothing.

LeBron had no shot in hell of beating the Spurs:francis:

2007-2008 Celtics were arguably one of the best defensive teams of all time and is definitely the best ever defensive team since Jordan's retirement. That team was lighting in a bottle.

The 2010-2011 Dallas Mavericks are also up there for pulling off that upset while making LeBron their personal bytch in that Finals series.

67 wins and the best offense and defense in the league. They had guys all over the all NBA and all defensive team. Those guys were historically good. Historically good margin of victory too. Curry sat 18 separate 4th quarters because the scoreboard was so lopsided in their favor :hhh:

I'm talking about they're playoff run they didn't really play anybody out west and got pushed to 6 by a cavs team without love and kyrie, I don't think they win it all if they're healthy. I honestly don't see that warriors team beating any of the other champs from the past 7 seasons

at the 08 celtics being in anyone's top 3 :deadmanny:

It took them seven games to beat the 37 win, eight seed Atlanta Hawks :francis:

then took another seven to beat lebron, delonte west and the 45 win cavs :francis:
:jbhmm:

That is a valid point. On one hand they were other worldly vs the Pistons and Lakers. On the other hand they embarrassing on the road vs the hawks and cavs, and almost damn near lost to Bron.

They played to the lvl of their comp?

#1 Can be either the Mavs or the Spurs
#3 Celtics
#4 Warriors
#5 Heat/Cavs

I don't remember enough of them Lakers teams to rank them, but I know they were not better than an injury free Celtics.

Those Heat teams were never as good as 08' Celtics, they could barely beat the washed up version of that Celtics team in 2012.
