It's unfair that the Warriors now have to fight through the west for a whole year again while the Cavs are once again locks in the east. East won't have any championship contenders unless KD goes out there. Raptors and hawks and bulls and wizards are bad, heat won't stay healthy.

3rd for the 9 in the finals
>Hit LeGod all game
>Get injured for some reason
What went wrong with Iggy?
I guarentee you there's not one player that would take a ring over the best regular season record ever. Someone wins a ring every year. Only one team gets 73 wins. Warriors still GOAT
>>68749440
Probably because you made it 20 posts early and the german janny caught on to your retardation
>>68749453
Every player would take the ring over the regular season record, the only reason anyone cares about the regular season record is that Jordan's bulls won the ring.

i guarantee you curry and thompson said the exact opposite thing
Don't really understand all this sudden LeBron dick riding, not just here, all over the place. I never disliked him myself, I was rooting for the Cavs in this series, and he played amazing. But if Curry/Klay had managed to make one or two 3's at the end, they would have lost, and now all of a sudden he's 2-5 and he would have been universally shat on.
Just strange to see that he either would have been considered one biggest chokers of all times and ripped apart, or is now actually being said by some to be better than Jordan, all over what came down to a few seconds.
One of the best NBA finals ever. Maybe best Game 7 in in NBA.

Warriors had 3 games to end this, had they chosen to play better in any of those single fucking games they would have won. But they didn't.

Was in Vegas last night and saw LeBron about 20 feet from me, shouted "da land" but he didnt hear me. Love did though and pointed at me
>>68749550
Welcome to Lebron's career.
If he pulled if off Last year he'd have been the GOAT. People care more about the end result.

>>68749498
Generals are counterintuitive to 4chan's format, these things were never meant to become popular. The format of 4chan was supposed to lend itself to everyone posting what they wanted so everyone could see and people would pick/choose which threads to reply to, not centralized chat rooms or threads that crowd out everything else. That's why something like that would never happen.

>>68749510
Looks like he's over kehlani
i'm glad cleveland won but i was listening to >e!spn radio on the way home and mark jackson was saying steve kerr got outcoached, i mean i just categorically reject that
draymond green lost that series more than anyone else did because the best chance GSW had to end it was game 5 at home and he was riding the bench because he's a fucking brainless chimp
in any case you can't really say kerr got outcoached when the series literally came down to kyrie chucking a dagger with less than a minute left in game 7 and/or lebron throwing one of the most instant classic plays in history with that chasedown block. i'm sure tyronn lue had a lot to do with those two plays.
>>68750067
she isnt over him, after he won she made a congratulations post on instagram and said she loved him.
then she deleted it after everyone called her a bitch and slut

What the fuck

y tho?
>Sony getting BTFO by Nintendo

>>68750072
Warriors are a much more talented roster than the Cavs. I wouldn't say out coached but Kerr really shit the bed in that one. Having a 3-1 lead with a 73 win team and losing is all time embarrassing.
>>68749550
Winning cures everything. If the Seahawks just ran the ball Russell Wilson would be 2-0 and Brady would be 3-3 and everyone would shit on Brady instead of calling him goat
>>68749929
It's been literally 1 day
>>68750072
>mark jackson was saying steve kerr got outcoached
Yes
>i mean i just categorically reject that
You're dumb.
He's been getting out coached since the WCF. He literally just sticks to the same formula and doesn't alter it at all when his team is getting killed on matchups until it's too late.

>Rest of the conference is system baby

Great to see iso-ball being back.

>>68750082
>mfw sluts "change their mind" about breaking up with someone way out of their league anyway and he doesn't take her back

In the grand scheme not very good. Managed to beat China recently if that helps. You guys don't seem massively strong either though. If Steven Adams would actually play then maybe we could do some things.
>>68750072
The argument is that since the Cavs were an inferior team, the simple fact that it came down to game 7 means that Ty Lue out-coached him.
>>68749550
He had an incredible series. He led every player on either team in every major statistic. He came back from 3-1 and had to play two of those games in one of the hardest places for a visiting team to get a win in the NBA. He was unquestionably the best player on the court for a seven game series. Don't forget, a year ago with a literally dead team he managed to take two games, basically, BY HIMSELF against the team that broke the record for most regular season wins ever, And he did this all against a meme player that a lot of people are starting not to like and a convicted dick puncher.
Of course people are going to admire that.
>>68750072
It's a conversation you can have. He made some mistakes. Varejao was garbage in the first, and he put him in again in the third, where he literally lost GS the game. Seriously, go back and watch the third quarter, there are about 4 turnovers on passes to varejao, he commits a couple shit fouls, and puts the cavs in the penalty. He alone personally spotted the cavs 10 points.
There were other things. He didn't trust the small ball group, even though it was working better than Ezeli and Varejao. He would put in Barbosa for defensive possessions to spell curry and then the cavs would just get Lebron onto Barbosa and blow him the fuck out.
Cleveland went 1/14 from three in the first half and Draymond went 5/5 from three in that same half. The cavs drastically underperformed offensively, given how many of those threes were open, as well as defensively, because giving those shots to Dray was the point, he just happened to make them. Eventually the game regressed to the mean, cavs made threes, dray started missing, and it was over.
>>68750135
Heat physicality is what made The Servant play like shit for 5 games. LeBron is too big and strong for Durant to guard him and he wears him down.
DA LAND

>>68750147
It goes against any sense of traditional basketball to encourage your players to jack up ill advised three point shots all the time.
kys, no coach would ever give the go ahead for that but a rookie like Kerr and the analytics guys forcing even him to do it too.
>>68750124
why the fuck would you change a formula that has gotten you 84 fucking wins?
if he doesn't change it, curry knocks down a 3 and kyrie misses his, what the fuck are you saying? if he does change it and they get blown the fuck out you're (rightfully) calling him a fucking retard?
lue didn't outcoach kerr. lebron and kyrie laid it all out and the warriors overestimated themselves/underestimated their opponent.
>>68750072
He did get out coached. He played ezili and varejao way too long and a struggling Barnes. Lue went small they switched everybody on Curry and curry couldn't do shit against the bigs. Livingston should have played a bigger role

Looool Brandon haywood went off on Curry when he threw that retarded pass in the 4th
>>68750189
They're not ill advised when you can make over 40% of them.
What's ill advised is having the greatest shooting roster in basketball history and limiting their 3s
>>68750072
how can anyone say draymond lost this series?
I'd take someone literally not showing up 1 game and playing out of his mind the rest over someone figuratively not showing up like 5 games and only playing well in games they lost anyway
>>68750159
i guess from that angle i can see what you're saying. but i still think if green is playing game 5 they close it out. maybe you make an argument that green being suspended is evidence of kerr being a shitty coach because of a lack of discipline, and there's merit to that too. but i don't think it's enough to say he was outcoached.
>>68750233
they are still human beings.
>>68750205
This is why the Draymond suspension is so terrible for the warriors. Dray doesn't get suspended, Bogut doesn't get the minutes he does in game five, Bogut doesn't get injured, and then you aren't playing Anderson Varejao for like 15 minutes in Game 7 of the NBA finals.
>>68750022
We takin ova, lord wiggins is the next goat
>>68750205
He just sucks ass.
reminder that the warriors were lucky enough to even reach the finals. if Draymond had been ejected in that game due to the kick and then subsequently suspended, they would have surely lost to OKC.
>>68750174
Why the fuck do you keep talking about KD as if he's the lone person in OKC and was the only one playing against the Heat?
I don't know if you're underaged or retarded but if you actually were alive to watch that Finals everyone was playing like shit but Durant.
Harden was choking hard, Westbrook was trying to hard because of it, Ibaka was almost single handedly holding back Bosh and and LeBron with Sefolosha not being good on offense at all. They lacked ANY reliable shooters on their bench and as a whole the bench was atrocious. Kendrick Perkins was old and declined by that time, making some crucial defensive mistakes and not being able to keep up with the Heat's fast pace play.
KD was the most consistent scorer in that series for OKC and was the second highest scorer on average in general.
You're just repeating some dumb tidbits of misinformation and don't know shit about the actual facts.
>>68750243
See
>>68750256
Also the dude was pretty mediocre outside of games 2 and 7. The suspension was the turning point, it set off all of these chain reactions, and allowed for little shit to happen that ended up hurting. Bogut got injured, Iggy hurt his back, Draymond is gone for a game. It's not a coincidence that when either Iggy or Dray weren't 100%, Lebron dropped 41.
>>68750271
They lost the game he would have been suspended in. He was fucking horrible to boot.
>>68750271
They lost the game he would have been suspended anyway
>>68750191
>Hello, I'm a idiot that doesn't know shit about basketball and the fact that each team is different and this thing called matchups and strategy
>>68750194
barnes i agree with. how that guy got minutes after game two is beyond me. he could not stop bricking. the cavs started to pull their defenders and leave him open so they could keep a rotating double because they knew he wouldn't hit shit.
>>68750072
Lue played small ball with intense defense that constantly kept switching and abusing Curry's awfulness.
It was actually how they won by pure coaching. Kerr refused to adapt.
>>68750253
no, they are above that. normal rules of sociology, hypergamy, and humanities do not apply to them.
>>68750228
doesn't matter that he has a ring, the history books will only remember him being on a meme team that came up short
>>68750284
>make 1 (one) post about Durant
>have an outburst like a petulant child
Go to bed, Kevin.
>>68750311
What are the alternatives? Barnes is key to playing small with Draymond at the 5. You pull Barnes, you either put in a smaller dude who gets BTFO by Lebron (Barbosa), or one of your centers(Varejao and Ezeli), who ALSO get BTFO by Lebron.
Speights should have played more
Someone should've told cury not to be a fucking faggot
Boom warriors won game 7
>>68750239
>They're not ill advised when you can make over 40% of them.
Not in high volume and before Marc was fired, you're using stats from AFTER Marc and in his MVP season. It wasn't thought possible and it took a lot of practice by Curry in the offseason pre MVP season for Curry to get to that level, he wasn't capable of doing that when Marc was a coach.
>>68750072
I don't think outcoached is the right term as both coaches basically kept shitting the bed in game 7. But Lue probably fucked up less since he had his almost best lineup for that game to end the game and the Warriors didn't.
>>68750306
matchups and strategy are way overblown. It's 10% strategy and 60% talent and 30% effort.
I can't wait for next year
>>68750372
Leave. Now.
>>68750306
enlighten me when the warriors at any point over the last two seasons including the post season ever stopped running memechuck.
their coach is fucking steve kerr for christ's sake. they're going to shoot the three.
>>68750364
>lue fucked up less because all he had to do was keep either kyrie or lebron in at all times and the rest of the lineup doesn't matter
>>68750311
>>68750315
if barnes shoots even 35% from the field the defense opens up and has to respect him more, curry gets better looks, and GSW wins the series.
so really it's harrison barnes being ice cold and draymond green being a fucking retard. that's what amounted to the finals loss for gsw.
>>68750325
Actually learn about the things you pretend to have understanding of in your posts so you don't look like an idiot next time champ.
>get told
>hurr don't make such a big post my mind hurts with big words you're hurting my feelings :(
>>68750424
Yeah and if Kevin Love didn't play like garbage every game until game 7 Cavs would have won in 4-0
>>68750398
It depends what you define as memechuck. During the regular season they were elite as fuck at penetration and finishing at the rim. Quintessential drive and kick for three team, but they could really finish then.
>>68750424
If shumpert/jr/kevin love shoot more than 0% on the wide open 3's lebron keeps passing to them the cavs win by 20+ each game
kd prolly texted bron "fuck that lightskin nigga" after he won
>>68750424
IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF
Yeah Golden State was probably the better team in terms of talent. Yeah if injuries and choking don't happen then they probably win 8/10 times.
But they lost, That's what made this so great.
>>68750404
Not only that, but Love actually had a place on the floor in Game 7 and I think the team was struggling without a lineup that included him.
I mean the dude guarded Curry like his life depended on without falling for the shame shit Thompson had been falling for for 2 fucking years.
Seriously Tristan, Curry isn't going to drive on you. Stop falling for that jab step.
>>68750463
you JUST KNOW those niggas are seething at a white boy winning MVP
this is supposed to be them niggas league and some white skinned boy is comin' in and disrespecting dose' niggas
Is this what NBA jerseys will look like in a season or two?
>>68750360
So he just learned to do it in the few months between June 2014 and October 2014? He wasn't doing it because Jackson's coaching was holding the team back. There is a clear point when this team became great and it was replacing the coach and adopting the small ball approach.

This is actually super interesting. Thompson could guard curry this time around. I don't know if it's injuries or what, but Curry roasted him during the regular season and even in last years playoffs whenever he got Iso'd against him.
Also curry had Love beat like twice if he wanted to drive to the basket but they were three points behind so he decided to die like a true memechucker.
>>68750504
has a white boy EVER won mvp until curry? Ever, in the history of the league?
Only times it probably ever happened was in the 50's before real niggas were allowed to play and bird
lebron is the corniest motherfucker in the league. at first i thought he was faking it but he's that lame and dadcore.
>>68750424
if the Thunder hit 30% of their 3's in game 6 the Warriors aren't even in the Finals
but if my aunt had balls she would be my uncle, it is what it is
>>68750398
There's this thing called "the death lineup."
This was Kerr's #1 weapon for winning games in the regular season and making any team incapable of stopping them as they were too small, too quick, and made exploited the defending weaknesses of big men when they defend smaller guys. You do this buy getting your team to have a closer average height and switching them on every different position, so the opposing Center would have a hard time defending GSW guards and forwards.
This was the biggest reason they had won so many games because no one could figure it out without completely changing their roster.
OKC defeated this death lineup in games 3 &4 of the WCF by Donovan putting an almost never used lineup he made up on the fly in the middle of the game. This matchup was taller, just as fast, had much more reach, and just as offensively explosive as Golden State's death lineup. But even after Kerr got BTFO in game 3 he still used the lineup for the majority of the game and the next game, game 4, only to be BTFO again.
By that time they were down 3-1 and the blame for that falls on Kerr for refusing to change his strategy even though it was proven ineffective. He only changed it in games 5-7 and went back to the basic Bogut at 5 starting lineup he usually uses, without putting the "death" lineup on since then.
>>68750463
LeBron isn't a racist, except when it comes to coaches, where they're not allowed to be completely white because that's like slavery
>>68750552
Isn't that his true genius? Ain't nobody gonna rely on Nick Young or JR Smith to win championships
>>68750542
If Curry drives and makes a layup, it's not like the warriors win, they are still 99% chance of losing. They actually needed a three, the one he took was complete ass though partially because Klove defense was great and partially because he pussied the fuck out and passed it to draymond halfway through an iso play
>>68750463
>>68750504
You guys need help. No one cares about the color of people's skin besides racists.

Yeah I was mostly memeing. I think they could have gone 2 for 1 though the first time he beat Love off the dribble. I don't recall exactly. Even if not, the Cavs have some pretty mediocre ass free throw shooters to foul.
I wondered why does anyone watch the wwe basketball version?

and he just palms it and swings it around like it's nothing

Thompson did improve, but then in Game 7 I saw him fall for the same routine game. Probably why his was pulled down the stretch and Love, surprisingly, was allowed to keep up his game 7 shenanigans.
What is going through the head of this ho right now /sp/?
Why is the NBA the most popular American league outside of America?
I still don't get why Kerr insisted on giving Varejao minutes.
>>68750618
They were up 3-1 with game 7 at home

She looks like hot garbage. Kyrie can do better than that.
>>68750672
way more international players than the other leagues
If Philly trades Jah for the third pick they WILL regret it. Jah is HOF material
>>68750672
Because it's played everywhere. You go to philippines, u dont see no motherfuckers playing football or soccer. You see niggas shootin hoops.
>>68750671
Fuck that used up hooker.
>partynextdoor
Absolutely disgusting.
If I'm Lebron, I write a beautiful letter to the league saying he has a new duty in life and it's to bring rings to every one and joins the LAnd Lakers with KD.
>>68750672
Plenty of foreigners there
Since Tony Parker has been in the NBA it's pretty well covered here
>>68750674
>Bogut is down
>Oh shit, should I play Speights who can hit 3s and midrange jumpers?
>Oh shit, should I play Ezeli who is stiff and slow as fuck?
>Or maybe I should go with Varejao since he's familiar with Lebron and Tristan Thompson
Where is Varejao going? Is it possible for someone to get dropped from the league of warriors don't want him and no one else does?
>>68750672
Because it's the biggest league in an international sport?
In many places abroad, they play Rugby/League/Aussie rules rather than gridiron and cricket instead of baseball. Basketball is universal
Why did the NBA want LeBron to win so bad?
>>68750672
because its the best league in the world?
mls would be huge too if it were better than epl/laliga etc but its not, and nfl/hockey are irrelevant sports
>>68750695
>manbabby
>HOF material
Just ask JaMarcus, Dawhine and Bynumb
>>68750727
They probably didn't.
>>68750716
Kerr could have ran an 8 man rotation. Varejao sucks - there's a reason the Cavs cut him.
>>68750618
How the fuck can he speak so eloquently to the media and then strt talkin like dis when he type
Is Tyrone Lue the only coach in history being replaced mid-season and on his 1st year to win a title?
>>68750670
What are you talking about dude. Thompson was sensational when you take into account that he's 6'9'' and guarding Steph fucking Curry. He did as well as you can ask anyone to do.
The Love defense thing is overblown. His man defense was never really the problem, he'd get abused in the macro defensive game. And even with that, Steph did have him beat multiple times, he just had to try for a three. It's much easier to defend if you're completely ok with giving up a drive to the rim.
>>68750727
Can't have someone with a billion dollar nike deal and space jams 2 going 2-5
is that movie they do for every championship out yet?
>>68750727
>Don't score a single point the last 4 minutes
>it was rigged guys
Refs didn't even call any fouls the last 4 minutes except intentional ones.
>>68750674
I think scola could've played better
>>68749446
>iggy being a dirty player
What happened /sp/? He was a nice fellow back in Philly.
>>68750736
Reason why Cavs cut him is he's always manage to have a season ending injury before ending a season
>>68750737
Because he's a nigger and he didn't went to college so that may explain something
>>68750672
Accessible to everyone (easy to learn, hard to master), lots of foreign players, Jordan marketing, can be pretty action packed at times compared to other sports so even casual fans can follow big games.
>>68750747
literally 1 day
Is Kyrie the penultimate playoffs point guard?
>>68750753
Don't respond to retards.
>>68750759
They could have kept him in fucking bubble wrap for the regular season if they thought he had any value in the play-offs.
>>68750730
But thenfl makes more than any other league in the world?
>>68750736
yeah but then youre either playing draymond at center the whole time, which means you have to put Barnes on the court, or you play Ezeli for 25 minutes, and Lebron abuses him off of ball screens.
>>68750740
It seems to me Love not only defended the 3 well but somehow got into curry's mind and psyched him out into thinking he needed to take a contested 3 when he didn't. You have to get him props for getting into curry's head
>>68750739
>implying Leaveland has a real coach
You can have the water boy and laundry guy as the coach and he'd still reach the NBA Finals and win a championship.
Lue is just a sock puppet, Lebron cannot handle a real coach like Pat Riley.
>>68750778
Ad revenue. More americans watch football, especially the superbowl, but not internationally, like basketball
Anyone watching this retarded TV show braindead? the fuck is this crap
>>68750736
>8 man rotation
>Warriors get destroyed from the inside because Iggy, Livingston and Barbosa are the only relevant bench players
>Draymond gets to play center and Barnes gets destroyed by Kevin Love

sweet that must mean it's out then since it's been well over 24 hours. anyone got a link to a torrent or do you think it will be longer since eveyone literally got their championship movie today?
>Draft is in Brooklyn, New York
>Brooklyn has no draft picks
Ironic
>>68750739
Pat Riley fired Stan the man so he could win the title for himself
>>68750807
Yeah but who cares about third worlders?
How come LeBron doesn't have to dribble?
>>68750824
Michael Jordan spread the game more than anyone
>>68750848
It wasn't his first season as coach
>>68750851
The question was why the NBA is the most popular sport outside of america you dumbass.
>Klay on Clips: “Didn’t they lose to the Rockets? So, that just makes me laugh. That’s funny. Weren’t they up 3-1 too? Tell em I said that"
BLOWN
THE
FUCK
OUT
how does one recover from such asshurt now? i think klay has to sudoku there's no other option.
>>68750851
america is a 3rd world country
>>68750847
I wouldn't trust Danny Ainge with those picks, he mostly drafts role players but never superstars and franchise players.
Since this is a likely 2-man draft, watch how he'll fuck up and pick the Eurobenis guy or draft that Dunn guy who can't shoot.
just imagine how shit this generals going to be next week
>>68750867
he's tall enough that he can reach the basket from the 3pt line with two steps
>>68750881
Ah didn't see the 1st season part
>>68750898
No one to talk about draft and KD & LeGod free agency?
>>68750884
What happened to the based /nba/ documentary streams?
>>68750887
But that means every other country is worse than third world.

WHY ARE YOU HERE
I HATE YOU AND YOUR MEME PICS
is my mom hot?
here she is with her best friends
>>68750672
Because basketball is popular in other countries and fun to play. No European will ever get interested in the NFL because he had a fun game of American Football with the lads.
>>68750928
you wana know how i know you've never left your own state?
>>68750936
>>68750950
Is your mom number 3 cause if she is I'd love to give you a new sibling
>>68750916
lebron has the option too, I doubt he's going to leave now that "he's home"
