Go Warriors!
NBA FINALS 2015
Sort:
LeBron is also on the top ten list of forbes sportsmen(in case of earnings).
I like the Warriors. The splash Bros are good boys from good families. Both of their fathers were NBA stars, these fellas were raised right, and are trained to ball at the highest levels. I like the team, I watched Steve Kurr win titles with Jordan(and he's a great guy and player). Dreymond Green looks like Donkey from Shrek(and it fits because hes an ass). but overall GSW are a standout, classy group.
But, I'm gonna have to root for my man LeBron. I think even if he had Love, and Irving that Golden State would still have a good chance to win. But, LeBron, and the team he built from garbage are setting there tied 2-2 with a team of 2nd, and 3rd stringers, and 2 undrafted players. It's just a more interesting story to me. GSW are in full prime, full health, and are balling at their pinnacle. But, I'm gonna root for the underdog, the man with no dad(especially one who was a NBA star), no anything. A man that got drafted into the NBA onto his home town's NBA team ha(when does that happen?) A trashcan. Not like Kobe Bryant, put into royalty with kings, and magicians all around him. No, LeBron has never been given the silver spoon, and he sure as hell ain't no sweet little baby faced sweety pie. Sorry Curry, LeBron made Durant cry, and soon you will cry too, haha no hard feelings.
LaBron needs a Scotty Pippen
One reason he left Miami was becasue every single up and coming team in the NBA had been custom designed to 'beat the Heat'. Also, Wayde's knees were giving out on him. I also think he felt like he needed to go home to 'prove himself'.
The Cavs were much better than the Heat this year. It was mainly Love and Irving's injuries that left them so short, and exhausted at the very end of it all. Plus, GS has a HELL of a team, and they were all healthy as oxes.
You're probably wondering why did I post a topic about basketball :)
I'll explain.
Basketball is the second passion of my life. The first one begins on a letter "C" and ends with double "S" :D
A few days ago I posted very popular topic (over 3k views and about 150 comments) "chess GOAT discussion" (the link is here --> http://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/chess-quotgoatquot-discussion) and somehow the duscussion about chess turned into a basketball one :)
NBA FINALS 2015 are extraordinary. First of all the first time in 21th century NBA champion won't be: Spurs, Heat, Lakers. Those teams won 11 of 14 last Larry O'Brien's CUPs.
Golden State Warriors are in the Finals for the first time and Cleveland Cavaliers the second one (in 2007 they were sweeped out by Spurs).
GSW have 2014-15 regular season MVP Stephen Curry who made 272 triple shots during RS (NBA all-time record) and has beaten Reggie Miller's Play-Offs 3p record so far.
CAVS have LeBron James. He's being named the Greates of All Time (the GOAT does not mean an animal in this post
). He scored 123 points combined in first 3 FINALS games. It's new NBA all-time record.
Warriors had the best record this season 67-15.
Cavaliers suffer from a plague of injuries of starters: Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and Anderson Varejao.
After 4 matches the series is tied 2-2. I remind that's best-of-7 series.
Which team do you support?
GSW or CAVS - who is gonna be the NBA CHAMPION?
