(3) Golden State Warriors vs (4) Dallas Mavericks WCF

[Manster7588]

Did anyone know they were doing this shit?

Da fuq?

Does winning WCF MVP have contract implications?

Wtf is this?

Let the participation trophy jokes begin.

Its brand new.

IIRC the East championship is the Bob Cousy trophy and the MVP is the Larry Bird trophy

Oh man....gonna miss TNT and the crew until they return in late October.

They are by far THE best NBA coverage on TV.

So that kinda went as expected, except I overestimated Dallas a bit and underestimated the Dubs a bit.

But each series has been completely unsurprising. In that same vein I'm picking Ws in 7 over the Celtics. That series is going to be a tough one like Memphis not fairly easy like Denver and Dallas.

My confidence level is 65/35 Warriors, Boston has far greater than a punchers chance to win it.

Looney was ROBBED

Kevon or Wiggins IMO. Curry was Curry, but both Kevon and Wiggins were co-MVPs IMO

I mentioned it earlier in the thread. It's a little weird but harmless. Like all those NHL trophies teams win

Yep...it's gonna be an epic battle.

I told you one of the 4 teams remaining was a rung lower than the rest.

No extension this time!

I think a group thank you to Skip Bay Clueless is also warranted.

Curry is the engine, though. Wiggins and Looney get a lot of their points and rebounds because defenders are so focused on Curry.

The Eastern conference MVP has to be Bulter.

Either by carrying that beat up team to the Finals, or his numerous missed shots helping Boston to the finals.

Barkley's picks are co-MVP.

I thought if they could take out Phoenix they must be a team to worry about, and they could have been maybe but really the Ws are just a lot more talented.

I keep remembering, nothing in the regular season told us how good the Ws are because they never had their whole team together. Now they do and they look like the best team in the league.

This was a much friendlier series than the Grizzlies one.

Like Denver...Boston gonna be the hardest of all I think

Glad we have home court

 

[msgkings322]

Warriors are the first ever Western Conference champions!!!

Steve Kerr has never lost a series in the Western conference. He's 21-2 overall LOL

 

[msgkings322]

Probably inspired from NFL

Or NHL, don't they have like 10 annual trophies?

Curry is the engine, though. Wiggins and Looney get a lot of their points and rebounds because defenders are so focused on Curry.

Not to say Curry doesn't deserve it

But in my view it was Looney's rebounding and defense. Wiggins kept the offense grounded when Steph and Klay weren't hitting or were on the bench. Plus he drew Doncic and made him work as much as anyone reasonably could.

MVP awards are kinda stupid and Steph is the go to leader of the team.

I've been reminded, yeah KD made them one of the GOAT teams when he joined, but that's because they were ALREADY a great team, that was why people were pissed when he joined.

This is that great core still, with some parts added that aren't KD but are pretty damn good. The infuriating Warriors look like they rolled another 7.
