NBA Finals

[L J S A]

How good is this GS team compared to other 65+ win teams of the past? I'm not an NBA fan, but they seem to be just 2 shooters and nothing else. Is the NBA just that weak right now and these guys would be 50 win team in historical context?

They are actually a really well-constructed team. The team that has shown up for the finals thus far is unfortunately not nearly the same team they were all season.

Agree. I think they're actually a very good team (not great). But have really underperformed in the finals. I also think Cleveland has really committed to their defensive strategy and it's paying off.

Sometimes the championship window is smaller than it appears, even with great talent, so I hope they get it together soon. The Sacramento Kings looked like they had what it took to win it all, and then had the window slammed and nailed shut after Webber's injury.

I think Warrior fans are the best in the NBA, and were that way even when the team sucked, so they deserve a championship before the team moves to San Francisco to play in front of a bunch of wine and cheesers who'll sit on their hands half the game.
