if Boston had done something similar, I'd be as happy as a pig in slop


As would every single other person who whines and moans about Durant / GSW. It's hypocrisy at its finest.

Apparently Kevin Durant is having an x-ray today, to see if he has a backbone.

What a pathetic worm. All the GSW/Durant apologists just make me laugh. Must be nice jumping on bandwagons and living life without a spine.

Oh, we've got spine. We're just not hateful, jealous babies.

I like to congratulate others on their success.

What a sterling example of incredible sportsmanship you are. Something for us hateful, jealous types to aspire to. Enjoy the victory parade.

Bill Russell's Celtics, Larry Bird's Celtics, all those teams had a TON of respect for their opponents. That's partly what made them great.

We should do the same as fans, we compete and cheer all out during the competition, but show respect when its over. I mean, we don't want to become a disgusting, classless fanbase like Phili fans.
Also what made them great was not having to compete with the GSW every year

Yeah, they only had to deal with guys like Dolph Schayes, Red Kerr, Bob Pettit, Oscar Robertson, Wilt Chamberlain, Billy Cunningham, Elgin Baylor, and Jerry West, for example, during Russell's run, and the Hawks, Knicks, Bullets, Sixers, Bucks, Pistons, Rockets, and Lakers during the Bird Era ::).


Yeah, in that era with so few teams, virtually all teams were stacked!

In Bird's era, he had Magic, Isaiah's Pistons, Barkley's Sixers, the Ewing lead Knicks, MJ's Bulls, Karl Malone-Stockton Jazz, the twin towers of Houston, just to name a few.

It must've been hard to make it to the finals, what with there being so few teams. Imagine how hard it would be to make the finals if there were only two teams!! man those teams would be stacked!

Well if you enjoy watching great basketball with ball movement it can be hard to dislike watching them.

I look at it as a basketball fan they are fun to watch, and as a Celtics fan I want to beat them badly.

I don’t think they’re fun to watch. Too much showboating and cockiness, mixed with dirty play.

Super teams make the NBA compelling. Only problem is there is only one right now. We need more super teams.

Hopefully the Cs get healthy and fulfill that role in the East. Would love them to beat GS. I found Draymond Green the most annoying player in the NBA.

These seem to be fair criticisms, so I can understand why someone might not like watching them. Personally, I don't really like them, and didn't like them before Durant showed up.

I do appreciate their style of play and just how good they are, though.

Me too. Contraction probably won't ever happen unless the U.S. regresses to a third-world country, but I'd love to see all the garbage franchises get axed.

GSW played by the rules.

But Durant move does feel like they stacked the deck.

Just more motivation for Danny this off season to figure out if our team, fully healthy, can beat them.  Finding someone who can defend Durant one on one is the biggest question. Not sure if that person has been born yet.

But who was Nigel Hayes?

Edit: Perhaps Dewayne Dedmon, as well.

Yuck. Screw the Warriors. Can't wait to destroy them. They really are vulnerable, and their lack of a bench and one more year will definitely prove to be their downfall.


The inability to pay their starting 1-4 $150+ million/year will be their downfall in 1-2 years. Someone has to go and it will fall apart from there.

They’re Silicon Valley. You think $$ worries them? Peanuts. Also getting new stadium.

Sure wish Celtics owned their own place instead of being tenants. Got to hurt cash flow.

This is probably the only finals ever that I didn’t watch a single game. Congrats to the Dubs but I would’ve been unhappy with either outcome. Seriously, has there been a more unlikable team than this GSW team in the post-Jordan era? I mean, look at the sheer number of annoying people on their roster.

You have your stars: Draymond, KD and to an extent, Steph
Then you have your role players: Swaggy P, Zaza, Javale

I hated the Lebron Heat wayyyyy more. Also hated the early 00s Lakers way more.
