I mean, it kind of is. The game was already lost by the time Lillard "blew it."

I actually enjoy that part of it somewhat. It shows even more that the pre-Durant Warriors were one of the best teams/systems in the history of the sport and it exposes Durant even more for the fraud he actually is (and has been these past two years when he won Finals MVP despite only being the 2nd best player in both Finals on a team that didn't even need him).

This GS run has proven Durant has completely wasted his talents playing for a team that didn't need him just so he could snag rings without doing any heavy lifting.
It's like putting a couple of miniguns on an M1A1. Cool toys that serve no purpose given the firepower already present. |

And they still needed him the first 2 rounds and will need him in the finals so it's not like he's just a hanger onner |

Man, what a heartbreaker as a Blazer fan. I have to admit that at no point was I comfortable even with a seemingly big lead. Give up 39 in the 3rd? Up 17 and lose that lead in, I don't know, about 5 minutes? To me this is about the coaches. Kerr made much better half time adjustments than Stotts did.
Oh, and we are missing Nurkic big time. Kanter has been decent in the last two series but a liability in this one. I do think he should have been in the game late though, we could have used a rebound or two to close that mess out. On to Portland. I expect to win game 3 and will pray for game 4. I do think this series still has come interest and excitement. It is not over yet. |

If Curry is just “Troy Aikman”, they wouldn’t be this good without KD. |

Curry did something Aikman didn't, he led that team to a title and won a league MVP, he is in higher esteem than that.
