2016 GS Warriors were the exact same team as 2016 Panthers

72 Dolphins only had 14 regular season wins. The Patriots, Red Wings, Mariners, and now the Warriors all have the most regular season wins by a team, and none of them won a championship that same year.

I think we might be splitting hairs here. He said "never won the championship".

Besides, no other NFL team since has been able to go undefeated in the regular season, and also win the Super Bowl.

Either way, not a big deal, I was merely curious.

Yeah I think what he meant is that the 4 teams who hold the all-time record for most regular-season wins in a season in their respective sports all failed to win the championship.  But the way he said it was not clear.

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).

Not true. The 72 Dolphins and 85 Bears both won the Super Bowl, and I'm sure there are others (Niners of the 80s and Cowboys of the 90s probably had a couple).

Curry and the Warriors choked after basically having the finals in the bag after game 4..it's not really like the Panthers because the Panthers never really had a shot to win in that game..panthers stunk that whole game..Warriors were up 3-1 in the series and blew it..that would be like Panthers being up 21-7 going into the 4th qtr and then losing 22-21

I get what the OP is suggesting to a degree but the way the super bowl and the finals played out were totally different IMO

I think what he meant was that the teams that hold the record for most regular season wins in each of the 4 major sports have not won the championship, not that the teams with the most wins of each season didn't ever win the championship. The Patriots, Red Wings, Mariners and now the Warriors all hold the record for most regular season wins in each sport and none of those teams won the title that year.

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???

I blame the Dab...

Of course they played out different, you can't compare a 7 game series to a 1 game winner take all the same way. The narrative holds however.

    • Not really. It all depends upon perspective. You can draft quality OTs high every year. They have one of the lowest bust rates by position. DTs, less so, but good ones still come along at a regular clip. With WRs, it's simply best to draft one in the first round if you want a legit play maker. Moreover, WR is going to set you back more than OT or DT at really all statuses, meaning JAG receivers are going to make more than JAG OTs and DTs, and elite receivers will make substantially more than elite OTs or DTs. I would also argue that it's much harder to find a franchise level OT or DT that can have an altering impact upon the game. So, if you don't believe they can, you may as well wait for day 2 or 3. That's why sticking to your board is probably the wisest thing to do. If you're not committed that the value is there, then what are you doing? Lastly, I don't think you should necessarily draft in a vacuum, but you must look at each team from year to year. People want to make them the same, but they're different. You have to start over every year and identify where the strengths and weaknesses are. You can't say, "Well we drafted [so and so] last year or two years ago, so we'll just draft this this year." That's not realistic and it can be highly counterproductive, especially in light of the reason that you should be trying to use FA to set up the draft.
    • If you read through his stuff, he's had a raging hate-boner for the Carolina Panthers the likes of which would make many long-tenured Huddlers blush. Every win was "yeah but" and every loss was "see I told you so".
    • Let me preface this by saying I've read WalterFootball on and off for 20 years. That's an indictment on my decision-making, and it's more than fair to be questioned.  However, the days of reading what's become weak ragebait have drawn to a close after he re-graded the 2025 NFL Draft's first round. He gave T-Mac a C on draft night. What was his re-grade for the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year?  Carolina Panthers: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona – C Grade One-Year Grade: C+ Grade Tetairoa McMillan won Offensive Rookie of the Year, but only by default after Emeka Egbuka vanished in the second half of the season. McMillan was good, and was certainly limited by Bryce Young’s mediocrity, but there are still concerns about his work ethic and passion for football. If he doesn’t progress in the coming years, we’ll know why. Original Write-up: Wow, our Panthers source did not pan out for once. Jalon Walker was heavy chalk to go here, but the Panthers decided to draft a No. 1 receiver instead. While this fills a need, I’m concerned with Tetairoa McMillan’s work ethic, which is something you never want to hear from a first-round prospect, especially one who is chosen in the top 10. Bryce Young needs this, and McMillan is talented, but will he give 100 percent at the next level? Also, what about the defense, which was the worst in the NFL last year? https://walterfootball.com/nfldraftgrades2025.php
