(3) Warriors vs (2) Celtics 2021-22 FINALS

[thunderc]

Foul trouble? That's the plan...?

Actually they probably DID kick that around...

Na just have to always see how eager he is to twist off

Just looked it up, in NBA Finals history the home team has won game 1 77% of the time (57 out of 74)

Home court is also most meaningful for the NBA vs the other big sports (NHL, NFL, MLB), with home teams winning 60% of all home games.

The Finals have gone to 7 games 19 times before, with the home team winning game 7 15 of those times (77%)

But have any of those teams been as mentally weak as this Warriors team?

There's never been a team as mentally weak as this Warriors team. Can you confirm, @Montalban ?

Only thing on here that works is the bolded. He does get hunted.

it seems nobody tries to attack curry nearly enough.

I guess for every smart coach in the nba, there's 20 dumbass coaches.

No wonder the same team has been in the finals 6 of the last 8 years

Where are you seeing the Curry is better than LeBron narrative? Ayesha's blog?

No, not here.

I saw people saying it on other sites.



J/k @Kawhi_2_Tatum

No, seriously....

You know I don't just make shit up.

Stephen A: Steph, not LeBron, might be this generation's icon

LeBron James is an all-time great and has always been compared to Michael Jordan. But Stephen A. Smith wonders if we’ve had it all wrong.

The media acting like Curry\Klay\Dray are this dominant dynasty big three.

But in reality all they have is 1 ring without Durant by their side.

@msgkings322

Do you listen to podcasts?

Because, this has been a topic the last few days.

This is from Fat boy Windhorst...


"The “LeBron fans are worried about Curry getting another championship” thing makes no sense to me. Is anyone seriously arguing that Curry>LeBron? Even if they are tied for championships? Curry is GREAT but LeBron just may be the GOAT. There is no reason for this to be a thing

"I'm just imagining if LeBron was here right now and had a glass of wine in him hearing this conversation, the things that he would say would be unbelievable. On one hand, I have to say, if Steph Curry wins the Finals and the MVP, when you talk about a guy with 4 rings, 2 MVPs, and a Finals MVP. We're talking about the uber elite in the history of the game, talking about Jordan, LeBron, Russell, stuff like that. Steph would be one of like 5 guys to have ever done that, but LeBron James would laugh at the concept that they're being compared like this,"

'RINGZ" is the biggest narrative pusher ever.

Kareem wouldn't be a goat level player if he didn't stack rings in the 80s on a stacked Magic Johnson led team.

Kareem was a cuck in the 70s. 1 ring in the washed up ABA era.

But RINGZ is the biggest narrative pusher.

A guy like Duncan wouldn't even be top 25 alltime if all he won was a ring or two. Just never had the offense. But RINGZ though.

Hopefully the Celtics bait Draymond early, that should always be in the game plan

How many techs will he get this series?

I say 3.

Smart will get 2.

Dude....da fuq are you talking about?

Until LeBron kept doing Lebron-like shit well into his late 30's, KAJ was thought to be the #2 player in the History of the NBA.

Magic is my 3rd favorite player EVER.

He was not better than Kareem.

Stop that...lol

If RINGZ wins the narrative, we'd all be sucking off Russell and Horry.

You can't attack him anymore, he's no longer a weak defender. Check those numbers you love to cite. Obviously he's small so if you can get someone long like Tatum rotated on to him you try that, but the team is very good at switching just like the Celtics. Poole is basically where Curry was before.

Your understanding of the game is very rudimentary. You treat everything like it's one on one, Tatum is the one 'defeating' Durant or Butler or Giannis, all the coaches are dumb for not targetting Curry and that's why the Ws have been to the finals 6 of 8 years, etc. Those are clown takes. It's a TEAM game and defense especially is a TEAM activity. No one player beats any team.

Get ready for that feeling between every game

i don't get why all these solid posters gave him this much time the last few days. I kept my interactions to a minimal once i saw what he's about
