So what? The Warriors just went 5 with the Cavs which is an inferior team to the Heat. The Heat had way more firepower, a much younger LeBron, a team that had plenty shooters and loved to play physical ball. The Warriors showed this series that they could be beat and they fall apart with physical punishment.
LeBron James - A Prime LeBron could mitigate a 28 Year Old Durant
Dwayne Wade - Wade is taking Klay out the game. Period.
Chris Bosh - Bosh is going to score whenever and however he wants on Dray.
Mario Chalmers - The only mismatch GS has in their favor. Steph would kill him.
Mike Miller & Ray Allen - Both will rain down threes on GS. Along with Battier, a lowkey good three point shooter.
Battier & Haslem - Both are goons and will annoy multiple GS players on defense.
Birdman - Will get key blocks and rebounds.
The Heat could beat this Warriors squad.

The Heat were not beating this team, you don't get stretched to 7 by Paul George by his damn self and beat this squad.

It wasn't just George, those Heat squads were making Roy Hibbert look like prime Dwight Howard.![]()
Its KD for me. He scored over, under and around LeBron like Bron was an afterthought while giving LeBron a bit of trouble the defensive end. He is also elite off the ball which separates him from LeBron for me. He can score 30 and get 8-10 boards and not have the ball in his hands a lot, this was the case in OKC too. His first step is where Bron's was 4-5 years ago. Edge goes to KD

Durant was like 4-20 against Lebron before the finals.KD never get owned by Lebron. Where have you been?KD always have a sensational performance against Lebron.
Check their head to head matchups. Numbers don't lie.

We both know you read it. Stop lying
The Cavs are an inferior squad to the Heat and they went 5. The Heat could beat them. You can't prove me wrong....keep posting them smilies though![]()

@ The self importance.
I didn't read that garbage ass post, you kept this one short, once I see paragraphs from posters like you I just
Go 7 with the Pacers and claim they could beat this team, go 7 with the Spurs and struggle to contain their ball movement, but you'll beat the Warriors. Yall are fukking trash at breaking down the game.
You're not as important as you think you are. You're a nikka on a sports board. fukk outta here. You didnt break down what I said because you have no argument for what I said.


Offense is more than shooting jump shots breh.KD is definitely a more potent offensive weapon breh![]()
You argue like a woman, where did I say I was important? I said I wasn't reading your garbage ass post and you seem to think that's impossible because you typed out some long ass bullshyt like I'm obligated to read it
I don't have some stupid agenda when I say the Warriors are better than those Heat teams. You do though.

"Once I see paragraphs from posters like you"....
Like I said nikka...you aint that important
You talk about people not breaking down the game but, you can't break down why the Warriors would beat the Heat squads. The Heat went 7 with the Pacers because their physicality was a nightmare for small ball teams....means absolutely nothing as Golden State doesn't play that way.


I wish dudes would stop using this tired argument, especially since a # of those games Kyrie and/or Love didn't play too.And they went 18-4 without him this season, Cavs 0-8 sans Lebron.
Durant was a better player than LeBron last year though, he was just unfortunate he didn't get the right breaks against GS and LeBron did. All things equal, OKC lose to GS in seven games (off Durant arguably being the best player in the series), and the Cavs lose to GS in five last season. That's the problem with folk who measure players in a vacuum based on what team wins without applying the appropriate context, while believing that more accomplished = better.Look, KD is a phenomenal ATG player who just put up one of the better NBA Finals performances in history, but this conversation honestly isn't even happening if he doesn't choose on joining a squad he blew a 3-1 lead to in the WCF who had 67 and 73 win seasons, back-to-back Finals apps and a chip without him, with a core of talent and style of play which couldn't possibly better suit him. Steph Curry was that dude the last two years and he isn't a better player than Lebron either. Give it a rest.
