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

      Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      Yeah this needs to happen ASAP. I don’t care if the price is lower. These Vikings fans on Twitter are absolutely insufferable. Acting like they have been world beaters for the last 60 years and thinking Carolina should just hand him over for nothing. We’ve had 7 or so tough seasons in a row and we have still been to two superbowls since they have and won more playoff games since 1995.    I hope Dan sends him to Detroit for a 2040 7th rounder and eats half the contract. Even Sheena is replying to them.

      Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

      By frankw · Posted

      So did the Panthers initiate this by making him "available for the right price" or was this something Thielen himself pushed for? I also never saw this quote he made about JJ McCarthy back in June. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/panthers-adam-thielen-both-asked-182711572.html Thielen believes McCarthy is built for big moments and will eventually show the world the skillset that won the Michigan Wolverines a national championship in 2023/2024. He even said McCarthy could be the “face of the league.” “I have high expectations for him. I've been able to be around a little bit through some of the time last summer... back in Minnesota, and I think he has the ability to be one of the great quarterbacks this season and the face of this league at some point. You know, I think he's got every tool and intangible that you can have,” Thielen said. “Obviously, it's a difficult league and it's not gonna just be easy, but I think he has the ability to handle adversity to be able to be big in big moments, as you saw when he was in college. I think he's got a great support staff around him, whether it be the coaches or the trainers.” Sounds like he's had one foot out the door for some time now.
