You better put asterisks on the Warriors title in 2015 after Kyrie and Love went down then. And don’t forget about the Warriors title in 2017 after Kawhi went down, the Warriors title in 2018 when CP3 went down (with Houston having a 3-2 lead), and the Raptors title in 2019 when Durant went down.
Asterisks for all! |

Was about to say the same but already covered. Not even a superstar player plus their second and third best players got hurt in the first game. The least interested Ive been in watching the finals in as long as I can remember.

Bam says he’s coming back for game 3. He’s basically the Heat’s entire defense but we’ll see what he looks like if still hurt.

The problem is either the NBA doesn't have marketable stars or has done a worse job marketing than in the past. People don't embrace the players and rivalries like in years past. People related to guys like Magic, Bird, MJ, Shaq, Reggie, Barkey, Rodman, Zo, Robinson, Garnett and Kobe. They had a charismatic factor I'm not seeing in today's players. It's like Tommy Gunn replacing Rocky. It just doesn't feel right. Last edited by BigCatDaddy; 10-03-2020 at 05:55 AM.. |

That may be the worst roster to ever win a finals game. AI's 6ers were close.

Awesome effort from him. Embarrassing effort from the Lakers. LeBron played more or less his standard game (25-10-8) but Anthony Davis completely took the night off. If that happens again, the Heat can win games in this series with as bad as the Lakers’ depth is. We aren’t done here yet.

Not even close. LeBron’s 2015 Cavs come to mind (they were starting guys like Dellavadova, Shumpert and Mozgov after Kyrie and Love went down). Heat are like 10 deep with good players.
