So...
When everyone was healthy and the Warriors went 20-0 to start the season, that was "luck"?
Winning 67 games out of 82, with most of them ending in blowouts, is "luck"? Lol ok.
The luck came from the fact that they stayed pretty much healthy all the way through all of this. Even Bogut managed to make it through with only missing a little bit of time at the end of December. Even Bogut managed to stay largely healthy. Think about that.
Then they got to the playoffs & every team they faced had people out with injury. Everything went about as perfect as it possibly could for them this season. If the same scenario plays out again next year then yeah I guess you could pencil them in for a repeat but it's unlikely everything breaks their way like this again.
So? No one stopped to feel sorry for the Warriors when Bogut was injured for two years. Or Curry for three. The Spurs won the year the Warriors were injured and the Warriors still took them to 6 games. So the Spurs are "lucky"?
End of the day the Warriors are one of the best team in the NBA and showed that all season. Not many teams are a threat to them bottom line. If you want to pretend that the Warriors didn't win the season series against these same teams when they were healthy be my guest.

We on that ass next yearCavs are arguably better with Mosgov versus Love. Love can work the perimeter and that's the only difference. Lebron, Mosgov, and Irving were there for the game 1 loss. Don't see how being there for the other potentially six games makes a difference other then them all being closer.
This keep flying over many people's head. The Warriors were set to win it all, no matter the healthiness of their competition. Kerr would have found somebody in his bench to make the proper adjustment to win the series. Love wouldn't make a huge difference, because we all know his role in the offense is reduced into a spot-up shooter to open the lane for Lebron. The simple kick out passes that Lebron normally set-up would have got pick by Warriors' defense. Also, Kyrie is not a great defender as Delly; as of result, Curry would have score more points in the finals. The Cavs' wing players are weak. Beside Lebron, none of them could create their own shots. A healthy Cavs wouldn't make it to game seven.A healthy Cavs team scores more points, but they're getting raped on the defensive end.
Kyrie playing more minutes means DellavedirtyPlayer isn't on Steph as much, meaning Steph raining 3s down on the Cavs without rushing his shot like he was in Game's 2 and 3.
