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

[Robotech]

'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.

I wasn't alive then, but I'm pretty sure that Kareem was already universally regarded as an all time great even before the rings with the Lakers. And I'm not sure what you mean when you say that Kareem had a ring in the washed up ABA era. The Milwaukee Bucks were never in the ABA.

Let's ignore most points ever scored by anyone when talking about Kareem. Let's ignore 6 MVPs too (more than anyone ever). More points than anyone ever, more MVPs than anyone ever. More allstar appearances than anyone ever (19!). Most all NBA (15) and most all NBA defense teams (11) than anyone ever.

Serious question: is your bit just purposefully making clown takes to see how riled up we get? Or do you really believe this stuff?

 

[Robotech]

Get ready for that feeling between every game

I am worried. By game 2, Steph, Klay, and Dray will have aged considerably.

That's a great question....

I'm genuinely asking. Troll or idiot?

both?

 

[msgkings322]

both?

Eh, I mean, sure, @DorianRo is an example of both. So is @Montalban . This guy talks about the game like he actually understands it, but the clown takes seem contrived to trigger people.

 

[msgkings322]

I'm waiting for him to say fuck it and go with something like "if you really look at it, Tatum is pretty much equal to MJ... Maybe just a notch below. MJ had way more help and way easier paths to the finals after all. Tatum much better from 3....etc"

Something like that.

Troll or just started watching basketball during the pandemic.

Completely uninformed.

I do my best to stay out of the pre-1987 NBA discussions because I don't know shit about it and don't care to learn.

I do that for this very reason.

He doesn't post like a total noob though. That's what makes it more likely he's doing a bit.

Worried about the lay off for my warriors game 1 but confident they win the championship

Its a lot easier to score points when you have 2/3 of the top 5 GOAT pg's in Oscar/magic

Spoon fed like a baby

 

[Kawhi_2_Murray]

This has potential to be easily the greatest finals of the last 12 years. Most of the time its lop sided but this is even.

2021 suns bucks sucked

2020 bubble sucked

2019 was good but klay injury hurt it

Durant era warriors cavs laughing stock

2016 cavs warriors was good but dray suspension ruined it

2013/14 heat spurs too many stars that were past prime or not in their prime

And the heat finals all sucked

Celtics/lakers was good but all players seemed to be on their final legs

Is that how he won all those MVPs and allstar appearances and finals MVPs and all defense teams and all NBA teams? Getting carried?

Almost all of these takes are wrong. You're right about this year being close to even though. That's why I think it's going 7, which has only happened 25% of the time.

 

[Robotech]

Fun fact: This is the first time since 1986 that the Celtics are facing a Finals opponent that is not the Lakers.

2016 Dubs vs. Cavs was tops for me.

The suspension does leave me with a feeling of " What if".

But, the fact that the Cavs won 2 games after that makes it legit....imo

This dude's talking a LOTTA shit. If the Celtics get tossed I hope he doesn't disappear like WiggityWack when the Cavs got ousted...

He will, if only to avoid the avatar I'll be hanging on him

The more that dude posts, the more I'm convinced it's who I think it is.
But if the PTB in here allow him to stick around this time for an extended period....meh...so be it.
I really don't have a problem with it one way or the other...but I do hope he doesn't veer off into those "certain no-no's" that got him booted the 1st time.
