And rightfully so. Best of 7 don't lie and this was the best finals I've seen since that Jazz/Bulls series.
 
This is the worst thing tho... Off brand Mom contributing Niggas get shine! :lol:
Shit Mo ain't off brand. Bron brought him in because he knew if Kyrie got injured he would be waaaaay better than Delly. Now if Mo showed up in the playoffs the first go round in cleveland they probably would've had a chip 6-7 years ago
 
Steph finished the Finals with 26 assists and 30 turnovers. :smh: It just amazes me how a two-time MVP can be so fuckin careless with the ball.

That behind the back pass to Klay in the 4th was :hmm:

Kerr needs his ass beat for even allowing that shit. I wish that was Pop.
 
Here's my view fam. This might sound crazy but you know when this series turned? Not the suspension, but......

......when Andrew Bogut fucked his knee up.

You could see the "oh fuck" look in GS's eyes. It was like their brother was fallen and not getting up and they didn't know what they'd do without him. Matter of fact, not having him indirectly allowed Thompson (in game 6) and Love (in game 7) to be a forced on the boards and in the paint. Those lil shots Thompson threw up and dropped in game 7? Doesn't happen of Bogut's in. The fouls he drew in game 7 (and made 3 of 4 free throws)? Might not happen if Bogut is there. Psychologically that injury fucked up more than just their screen, pick, pop game.

I remember when the rumors of KD going to GS surfaced and ppl where debating who to get rid of to free up the $$$ to make it happen...I quickly mentioned bogut as one player they could "easily" get rid of...I think it was LBOP who told me tho the value of bogut on the team not being his stats but the intangible things he does that helps the team do what they do well...and that def proved to be the case w/ him being forced out due to injury these last 2 games
