I really did not imply that Westbrook>KD. Potentially Durant outclass Westbrook offensively. West is more like a warrior.

Westbrook's tendencies for one man shows sometimes made their team loose some games on these playoffs. West can be the best or the worst for a team depending on his mood. Yes he gets frequently triple doubles but sometimes it cost his team the victory.

My point however was that the series against GSW he was more constant and important than Durant. Some even argue that Durant is getting old and his game is stereotyped.

But I would take Durant over Westbrook any day.

Concerning GSW, people can give all excuses they want but the truth is in life Shit happens. what you do is preparing for alternatives ahead of time and thinking your team well through.

Green deserved to be suspended lets get that clear. Whether Nba wanted to help their cause is another debate, but Green deserved it. If you don't want to be cheated, play by the rules.

Again, Green was suspended only once. GSW lost 3 games, 2 at home including the final. They can't but blame themselves.
Yes, the players have themselves to blame for this. You can't blame me. This finals really got me emotional. I never wanted James in the finals as i was worried but when the game went 3-1, my mind was relaxed and i'm sure the same thing happened to the warriors but that suspensions really changed momentum. i should stop wishing on what could have been. The warriors will rise again.The west will reclaim their throne.

you're still saying the same thing,
the championship validate all.
you're talking like it is a one game series not 7.
and if we're going down this path,
if LeBron had Kyrie and love for the finals the warriors won't have a championship.
if we've learnt anything from this post season that is it.
(na you light this fuse o).
be gracious and take the L.
Guy i won't lie to you. E pain me gan. GSW fall my hand. Over believe worry me grin grin grin . I have never felt like this before during any NBA game. I want another rematch next season ooooo.Lebron should be ready. The west are coming back for their throne.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Skywalker5(m):
LoJ:
I don't even think Durant was the best during that series. Westbrook probably was.

Again, I believe GSW as a team is inherently better than the Cavs. But on this series, the cavs played better. The warriors did not play to their full(est) potential, partly due to the mammoths (LBJ and Kyrie), Green's suspension, poor psychological mindset, etc.
Westbrook is good.i know he scores but his turnovers are scary. I think he was in the top 3 players with the highest amount of turnover during the regular season.

Green's suspension ruined it all. It ruined thier vibe but i have a feeling they will be back.
Congrats to Lebron getting a ring for Cleveland but i hope suspending a player during the finals because his feelings got hurt should never happen again. grin grin . He should man up next time grin grin . I am sure Cavs fans are going to eat me alive today as i dey look for trouble grin grin grin grin

SIRcumalot:
ready yourself for the bullet. cheesy

I could say the same about the okc-warriors series.
don't try to cheapen what the cavs just achieved,cavs fans tried to do the same last year una no gree
Okc was not the better team during that series. Durant was the best player in that series. He was the guy holding it down. It depends on how you look at it. I love OKC too but they were screwing up a lot during the regular season. Remember when i was screaming with the amount of turnovers westbrook was having. Warriors were consistent throughout. They were the best team IMO.

I am not trying to cheapen the CAVS. i was rooting for the warriors to win so you can understand by sentiment grin grin . I am happy for them and sad that the team i was rooting for was used as a scape goat to revive King James legacy.

abeg ooo it's risky. We need grit yes! But not Cousins type.

Abi we should go for Jahil Okafor ni cheesy
Jahil is not bad also.Saw his game with the sixers but sometimes, he screws thier game up. He could not blend in with Noel.I often looked at both of them as two centers men played at the same time. I just need the warriors to get a solid center. The East need to get stronger. Whitside is coming up. I feel the Heat will also be contenders next season. Raptors might need to toughen up. I want to see real competition when you are not sure which team will make it to the finals.

its funny how these championships came eras ago. In this era East is weak enuf said.
I'm not going to lie and Please ooo i dont want Cavs fans to shoot me here. The best team did not get the ring. The best player did. Lebron still got it easy.His main opponent was the warriors. The east is weak like you said. Lebron will be back in the finals again.

Andre Drummond has no offensive presence... Wud be big on defence but cud hurt us when "hack a Drummond" starts, doubt if Anthony Davis wud leave Pelicans for now, dnt knw if he is eligible for a trade. Cousins tho good na wahala boy!! Flagrant fouls wud just be flying left, right and center.

Just imagine Draymond and Cousins on the same floor... One wud Trash talk the refs to death while the other wud nearly beat someone up on court.
Yea but if Draymond gets suspended,Cousins will continue the trash talk grin grin grin grin grin . Draymond's effect was missing in game 5 of the finals. Daymond reminds me of Kevin Garnett (celtics), Rasheed wallace (Pistons) when they both went on to win championship

Eruditor:
KD will not leave OKC and I don't mind. He will be too afraid to be given the Lebron treatment should he leave and he would feel his team is good enough again since they were just a win away from another NBA finals.

But just like Mizzzbeee said, he is not what we are missing. I know Curry and Klay will fine tune their game and add some more grit to it come next season, but we are in dire need of another 2 way player to upset Barnes and we need a more forceful scoring Center.

I know whiteside is the consensus favorite but I won't also mind Andre Drummond, Anthony Davis or Demarcus Cousins grin if Whiteside is out of it.

Al Horford is good, Paul Gasol too would be good, but age is not on either of their sides with Al underwhelming me against CAVS this past season. But at least both are decent FT shooters and they can score buckets.

I don't also mind Jimmy Butler. I hope he would be cheaper to bring in than Keep Barnes. I am sorry it had to end this way for Barnes but we need at least 2 more rings.

If we can make the necessary trades and keep Iggy, Livingston, Barbosa, Speights etc. It would be difficult for GSW not to win it all in 2017.
Wow, i love those guys you just called. Any one of them is perfect for the warriors.

Guys

Westbrook vs Kyrie? who yall pick

Also, according to nba rules Varejao having played a considerable number of games with the cavs, is eligible for a ring. But it depends on if:
Varejao asks for it or if Cavs management gives it to him.

Should he demand a ring?
Westbrook any day

You trolling Varejao now? grin grin grin

Allrounder!! Age isnt on Bron Bron's side....For him to churn out such performance at his age is something to be admired. That said would troll him again next season tongue

p.s. The draft picks this year is boring!!! this LSU so called next Lebron smells like a bust kinda undecided dude cant shoot jumpers....in this league of hit and miss...Only dude that has gotten away with this is Queeneth Prince Lebron tongue

So much noise was made about D'angelo Russel too
Yea, age is not on his side and he was great during the finals. Not sure if i want to troll him next year. Age is not on my side too grin grin grin.make i no go get heart attack. grin grin

KD can recruit two other stars(big 3) even the Queen who is ever willing to take a paycut just to get the next ring...you smell that?
grin grin grin grin You guys won't kill me with laughter. Well, Lakers get money so i won't be suprised if they pull that kind of stunt. Its not illegal. grin grin grin grin .KD will pull a Lebron. get rings with lakers and then come back to the thunders. grin grin

Also, put some respect in Lebron's name grin grin grin . Lets celebrate with him for now. No more Queen.Maybe Prince James. grin grin

Any points you make are invalid. He madr history, only player in NBA finals history to lead both team in points, rebounds, assists, steals block, only player in history to make a 3_1 comeback in finals.
Appreciate greatness while it lasts cheesy
But he aint Micheal Jordan grin grin grin grin grin .Just joking ooo before everyone attack me this morning. grin grin I think the hatred made it all fun for NBA though. Seriously, i am really not his fan at all. That move to Miami and "check my stats" T shirts really did my head in then and i was his fan when he first came into NBA though.

After watching the video, i feel kind of happy for him that he actually won a ring for cleveland. You can't punish a city for Lebron's old moves. I know he is grown now but everytime i see, him, those memories have not died in my head.

well, you need to watch it, cavs fan or no cavs fan, you'll feel a lil bit emotional.
Youre way to finals nxt season wont be easy with this performance in playoffs, you know?
I will when i get home. I was not expecting CAVS to win this season at all. Warriors had it locked down before the Lebron/Draymond effect in Game 4.

Warriors will be back. the splash brother just need to play the same way they played during regular seasons.

If the warriors are not in the finals, my man KD will,depending on which team he lands.

The West is getting tougher ooo!!! Spurs, Thunder, Clippers even Blazers are not smilling. I wdnt mind Durant coming to warriors tho.

Warriors fan how wud u like to see Howard on our team grin grin
Howard is not a bad idea. To be honest, i have always looks as warriors as a fragile team but they always surprised me and i forgot about the fear after 40 games . Howard might help under the rim which i think Bogut was really valuable for. I would pick Hassan Whitside over Howard though. That guy is definitely going places next season.

If Durant enter warriors,i don't see any team stopping them at all but warriors need a center man badly.

Did you feel emotional when lebron started that tears of joy?
Did not watch it grin grin . I am still in shock that he ran through the warriors. I'll watch it when i am calm.Maybe by Saturday.

Congrats to him though for winning the ring for Cleveland. Hopefully, the warriors will be back in the finals.

Its better not to pay any attention to the poster. The poster only came around when the game was 3-3. You already know people like that. Congrats to lolawilliams though. Stuck with Lebron through thick and thin grin grin

Ezeli and Barnes messed up. Cant lie. it really hit me.

You can't blame the Cavs fans for writing things like this. They won so they have bragging rights.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by Skywalker5(m): 8:24am On Jun 20, 2016
I have to admit,e pain me cry cry. GSW messed up from the time they allowed CAVS to fight back. This game should have been over in 5

Congrats to the cavs.Its a well known lesson here. the same mistake the heat made when they were 2 up against mavericks and they felt they were already winners. GSW really messed up but i tip my hat to Lebron for being very tough (apart from that Draymond's stuff). The guy is really good. i have to admit. I knew this was going to happen which was why i stopped watching during the 3rd quarter. I won't watch the replay. i can't handle it.

Lebron is now offically not a choker anymore in my books. He deserves every respect now. Now that he got the ring on his own,i can now respect him.

Congrats to Cav's fan. No love lost. Now i am on the look out for my man Durant waiting to see where he lands.

From 3-1 down to win.I guess I have to stop using the word choke on LeBron.he is good.I might move him to top my 5 greats after his performance. He was the real warrior.Curry and Klay could not repeat what they did during regular season and LeBron was on fire.

Congrats to the CAVS.

Darren Collison likely to face jail term due to domestic violence..
Derrick Rose likely to be traded to New York Knicks
Maverick Dallas has shown huge interest in Hassan Whiteside
Miami Heat likely to go hard after Kevin Durant..

-Bleacher's Report
Don't tell me Miami will allow Hassan to leave to the west? That guy is one of the guys i love to watch now and i know he will be on fire next season. I feel miami will be a title contender with hassan. I hope Miami sticks with him.

IMO,If Durant wants a ring, he should go to the spurs.If he wants to go to Miami, they better not sell Hassan ooo. Hassan and Durant will be a nice collabo.

If the Cavs can win game 7, i will fully respect Lebron even though i did not like how he got Green suspended. GSW were suppose to use game 6 to prove a point but failed.we have game 7 to do that at home.

Although the pressure is now on GSW not to get a very bad history in the middle of all the good ones they have made.
