This is why playoffs are shit and titles should be decided by league results only
They actually lost 4 games.
Head of state titles should be decided by results too

Get the fuck out of here

Clearly not
>Arrive at the stadium

You guys should decide how every sporting league works.
>muh regular season
Keep your shit sport away from us.
>>68709616
People always rip on the American education system, but I swear you Brits prove how fucking stupid you are daily.
If you can't win when the moment is big, you aren't a champ.
>>68709616
This holds some slight (very slight) water for football. But with a 7 game series, fuck off.

sorry muhammad. the warriors are officially

You can actually win the championship by going 81-0 the reason the playoffs happen is because no ine wins all the games.
At least the talk of the GOAT level team BS for the Warriors can now stop. Being you have to win it all for it really to count.
Other wise it's just some more of that coddled millennial "everyone is a winner even if you don't really win" BS.
DONT MEAN A THING
WITHOUT THE RING
>>68709616
They lost like 10 times in the playoffs dumbass
>>68709616
How is it any different from World Cup or Euro knockouts, or Champions League? Are those shit too?
>>68709616
you have to win 16 games in the playoff season to win the championship.
The regular season is like the group stages of the Champions League and then the playoffs is the knockout stage. We don't have a "league" like you guys do, just an extended cup competition.
I thought that the "GOAT team" luster wore off when they allowed themselves to go down 1-3 in the semifinals.

>If you can't win when the moment is big, you aren't a champ.
So a team that comfortably destroys the opposition all year then got injuries at the wrong moment isn't a deserving champion? I mean there are arguments for excitement but this isn't a good argument
>>68712067
They had a decently easy schedule and once they had to consistently play tough teams they weren't the best. I don't see why this is so hard for you to understand, maybe because you are used to leagues that have fully balanced scheduling (even home-away games with every team).
>>68709616
You're right but americans are too retarded to understand it.
>muh muhfuggin hype clutch playoffs N shit muh nigga muhfuggin dick shieeeeet

Well the cavs did win so no and regular season matters why? Not him btw
>>68709616
i'm enjoying this, please give me more butthurt comments
SEVEN THREE NO RING
>>68712067
Imagine if one team got to play Aston Villa five times and play Leicester once while another team plays Aston Villa once and Leicester five times. The team that played Aston Villa more times got a better record than the team that played Leicester a lot, but does that really mean they are a better team? Not necessarily
>>68712628
I'm listening to butthurt radio right now 95.7 The Game from Oakland if that link doesn't work.

>"you're right because of reasons"
Nice argument. I guess the World Cup is shit cause teams only have to lose once to be knocked out.
>>68709616
>>Be comfortably the best team all year, going 73-9 breaking a record that had stood for 20 years
>>Lose 1 game
>>Don't get recognised as the best team
YEAH WELCOME TO OUR HELL.
>>68709616
They went 15-9 in the playoffs you dopey cunt
>>68711217
Is this true? Would it be valid?
>>68715996
Well, there are 82 games in the regular season, so you tell me
>>68715996
No
You can, however, have a playoff in all the major football leagues
>>68709724
>They actually lost 9 games.
>1 to Houston
>1 to Portland
>3 to OKC
>4 to Cleveland
FTFY
>>68709724
And they also lost 3 more against the Thunder, 1 to Portland, and 1 to Houston
>>68712067
So by this logic, UEFA Championship League should not exist. Olympics should not exist either.
See how this goes?
>>68714475
>>>Lose 1 game
To be fair, Warriors had 3 opportunities to close the deal, 2 at home
>>68709616
KYS OP
>>68709724
>lost as many games in the regular season as in the playoffs
>>68709616
They lost 3 on the trot in actual games that mattered
>BTFO
>>68709616
Regular season in the end doesn't mean much. The title is why player play. Warriors choked when it mattered most. Now they will be remembered as one of the most over rated teams in sports history.
It's a serious flaw in all sports. You never crown the best team, just the one that fucking streaked the best at the end.
>>68709616
>We're the best team! Hands down!
>"I bet we can beat that team"
>No, we are the best team, no debate allowed!
If anything, a championship is more diplomatic than anything. Don't be mad because the team you rooted for got shat on.
>>68716610
Winning when it matters is huge. People who stat pad against shitty teams don't deserve the title.
>>68709616
>This is why playoffs are shit and titles should be decided by league results only
No, this is proof that playoff results are better than any league result could ever bring.
>mfw, a champion was decided when a team wasn't even playing
Yea, fuck off
>>68709616

>>68709616
>1 game
I kind of agree with you op. I like playoffs but they just make regular seasons meaningless. Why even have a regular season?
>>68718196
I guess the ideal for me imo would be how they do it in euro leagues, but that's not possible since the rest of the world is garbage compared to the nba
>>68718196
preparing for the games that actually matter and getting home field advantage for said games.
>>68718252
why do we need 82 games worth of that?
