2016 GS Warriors were the exact same team as 2016 Panthers

Both had the league best regular season. 

Both defied odds in playoffs, overcame deficits and made it to the championship. 

Both had the league MVP. 

And finally, both were products of a rigged system that ended with them losing to the media/leagues sweetheart (PFM and LBJ). 

 

AmIright???

NBA DESTROYED any credibility it had left with viewers capable of complex thought. Such a blatant example of a predetermined ending. They did everything they could to hand that title to Cleveland on a "Silver" platter and by God they succeeded. Outside of watching Hornets games when I can, I'm not spending a dime on the NBA ever again.

Both teams had players that were selected to pound the drum. :) 

Seriously though I really enjoyed watching GS throughout the playoffs this season. I was able to go to a couple of the games and the crowds/atmosphere were obviously insane. 

I'm fairly meh on LBJ but was it cool Cleavland ended the 50+ year championship drought. Also, I think I read that it had been 60 years since a player had made it to 6 NBA finals in a row. That's a pretty decent stat. 

Bad news is that it's over...twiddling my thumbs waiting on training camp now.

It wasn't rigged, the Dubs were up 3-1. Draymond got himself suspended, Bogut and Iguodala got hurt, Curry played pretty poorly, and they blew it. 

Fun fact: The team with the most regular season wins in all 4 north american sports has never won the championship (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB).

I agree with this.  Conspiracy theories get a little outta control sometimes...

Rigged at its genesis at a minimum.  The lottery was rigged to get Irving and LBJ.

Rigged huh? I guess that what made Barnes have one of the worst shooting performances I've ever seen.  And iggy played 38 minutes and only had 4 points,  his back wasn't right. I'm not a fan of either team but as far as I'm concerned they let both teams play game 7 and let them be physical

Lmao, yeah that's a real Rig job right there.  I don't like either team honestly, just happy my former Denver Nuggets got rings in Jr Smith, Dhantay jones and Mozgov

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
