This is pretty deep actually. I could understand either side. For the single player, I'd probably go LeBron. The window for more championships is closing. He went back to Cleveland to bring them a Championship and would be 0-2. In my opinion, he was destined to not live up the hype because it was not reachable in the first place. He just isn't Jordan yo. However, the hype is what it is, and legacy is mainly about perception so a loss here would be perceived as more failure.

Curry: yes the doubters, with a loss, will have a little more ammo. Unfortunately, I think the doubters will still doubt regardless. If they don't like his style, and claim he wouldn't be great back in the day, winning another ring won't change that. They'll just blame the rules even more.

I seen a tweet today: "If there was no 3pt line, how elite would Curry be?"

:snoop:

As for the team aspect though, this warriors team MUST win the Ship cuz that asterisk next to the 73 win season **no championship** will never stop being brought up.

Go Dubs!

Warriors beating injured teams is a myth. AD was healthy, and they won. Gasol and Zbo were healthy, and they won. Harden was healthy, and they won. In fact, they beat the entire first team All NBA in the postseason. All people did was complain that Durant was hurt, but they didnt even make the playoffs.

Jrue Holiday had a bad leg injury before this series, only avg'd 17 minutes, Memphis had Conley just coming off a serious face injury, I think he missed a game or two in that series, and was hampered the rest of it, Houston didn't have Beverly or Montiejunas, two of their best defensive players, and Montiejunas, a pretty solid shooter. Cleveland, pretty fukkin evident

A myth is a BIG ass stretch lmao

:camby: with that Rockets BS. (And Pablo played better than Beverley ever could.) Conley averaged pretty much his regular season numbers that series.




Cavs were down 2-1 before Pau got hurt, and no one says shyt.

BS? :russ: nikka that's an actual fukking fact, did you watch the series? Those are TWO starters not playing in a Conference Finals, how would that not seriously impact the game :mjlol:
I forgot to mention Conley was also coming off a foot injury before the face injury, so dude had his vision somewhat impaired as well not going at top speed. Anyway, his season average was 15.8 and he only reached/eclipsed that once the whole series. Second closest he got was 13. Dude averaged somewhere closer to 11 points than almost 16. :francis:

I don't know why you believe this is a myth or something that needs to be debated breh. Injuries to starters are something that's going to be recognized in the end game, why the fukk wouldn't they? :lebronwhat:

neither one played in the playoffs, and they made the WCF, so their absence was irrelevant. They overachieved. Pablo played better than Beverley ever did in the Clips series.


Beverley missed over a month at the end of the season. Bringing him up is nonsensical.
