 - are we really going to compare rosters?
GS injuries led to Iguodala and Boogie getting more playing time. You know who started in place of Kyrie & Love? Dellavadova started and played 40 minutes / game. The 5th spot was such a mess that CLE relied on Shumpert & James Jones. Outside of Lebron, the 2015 Cavs might have had the all-time worst NBA finals roster in history. |
Klay\Steph aren't on Lebron's\KD\Kawhi's level, they are great and HOF players but a step below those guys.
Hell the Raptors ran a box and 1 multiple games in the NBA Finals which is all you need to know about the GS roster. In a close out game they ran out Livingston-Cook-Mckinnie-Jerebko-Cousins lol. Probably the worst lineup in Finals history because GS was decimated. I love Iggy but he is 35 and playing with a bad knee and calf injury that he hurt in the Rockets series and Boogie who came back from an Achilles injury then he hurt his quad and was out months until the Finals.
I have been saying for weeks, this isn't the same GS team they have no depth\bench because of their salary commitments. The Raptors had an overall better team but a healthy GS team this is a sweep or 5 game series we all know that.
