NBA Finals 2015-2016 thread

[slamtheking]

Lebron and Cleveland earned this one, along with Golden State doing everything they can to give it to him.


What a joke. Curry absolutely lost this series for them.

agreed.  Curry was absolutely hideous this series.  he killed them down the stretch of this game in particular. 

I hate Lebron with a passion but I have to give it to him this series -- he earned this title more than the 2 in Miami

[Banner18now!]

Best player ever.  Time to debate it.  Amazing.

Bill Russell vs Larry Bird vs Magic.  It's a tough one.

Ain't none of them done what Lebron just did.   Bow down to the king. 

Give last season's golden state championship an asterisk. Lebron would have beat them had he not been playing by himself.

**** Russell never did what??

[Clench123]

Still the greatest in the world!

respect restored back for LeBron, he finally delivered for Cleveland like he finally promised and this is the first time I've seen him cry on TV.

Should we also discuss the epic greatness of Peyton Manning?

I agree with you on this point.

Won two in Miami. Brought one to Cleveland. Knocked off one of the greatest teams ever.  What's next for Bron?  Can he defeat the Monstars?

Lol.  Love it.  Witnessing greatness. 

[CelticSooner]

That's the emotion I wanted to see the first time around. Congrats Cleveland. Down 3-1. Crazy, I tip my cap.

King James.  Basketball God.

Hes earned the king nickname but MJ is the god

[Endless Paradise]

Warriors go out the same way they took out my Thunder, except on the more painful stage. I'm good.

LeBron is the greatest of all time.

Man.  Amazing series by the Cavs, especially LeBron and Kyrie.

All time collapse by the Warriors.  They couldn't get any shots inside at the end and they lost.  Couldn't hit a shot.  You need to be able to get shots inside or else you open yourself up to this kind of result.  Battled all game and got four or five great opportunities and they couldn't finish.  Kyrie did.  LeBron did.

So disappointed.  I can't imagine being a Warriors fan right now.  Epic failure.  Beaten by a great, great opponent.  But this tarnishes their legacy irreparably.  Empty season.  Totally empty.

Yeah, at least the Pats can claim a perfect regular season and their loss was on a totally fluke play in a single elimination game by a receiver who would go on to do absolutely nothing.

GSW managed to drop three in a row to really hammer home how much they didn't deserve it.

love MJ but the Wizards never made the playoffs.  Lol

I think this is the only way to look at it now.  Golden State will have to face this.  Their title last year looks like a fluke because Kyrie wasn't playing.  LeBron was great two years in a row.  Should have won back to back NBA Finals MVP. 

The Warriors could easily be a two time runner-up if it weren't for Kyrie getting injured at the start of the Finals last year.


Sorry Warriors!  You can't screw around against a team featuring one of the greatest players ever.  Can't do it.  They took the Cavs lightly in Game 2 and Game 6.  Draymond couldn't keep his composure and cost the Warriors a game at home.

Now they're on the list of biggest playoff disappointments in NBA history.


All hail LeBron James.  King of the NBA.  We are all witnesses.


Gonna be a while before that changes.
