Yep and especially since there's articles like the link below saying the Warriors would cost them $22M.

I'd say Curry because it's the Finals.

I would be shocked if the Cavs came back and took the series



At that point all arguments end as to who is the greatest player in my opinion.

Jordan never won a series without Pippen or a ring, so it doesn't end there.

If cavs win tonight I honestly think they win the series

No player has been able to win a series without another great player on their squad. Though I will say this, of the big 3 (Jordan, Kobe, James) I could argue it was Kobe during his second run of championships who won with less.

Pippen being considered one of the 50 greatest players and James had the 3rd best SG of all time with Wade.

Kobe had Pau as his number 2

LeBron when he got swept by the Spurs was the only worthwhile player on that team. He really was the Cavaliers early on.

Jordan also played during an era of expansion teams with a very easy path to the playoffs and against weak teams in the finals.

Warriors better treat this like a game 7. They lose tonight, this series is go 7 because I'm giving them no chance to win game 6.

People forget that the bad boy Pistons that Jordan beat had 4 All Stars, Thomas, Dumars, Laimbeer and Rodman.

Not sure what this has to do with what I said (your post), but Rodman is the only HoF player with less than 10 PPG. Best rebounder ever.

Just adding context

 

[Oldfaithful]

Weren't Dumars and Thomas both hall of famers? Or are you stating the fact that Rodman is the only player in the basketball hall of fame without going over 10ppg because of his elite defense and rebounding.

I was once told he was the only HoF player without at least 10 PPG, but he got in because of elite defense and rebounding.

I think he is. I know I said under but that was an autocorrect typo.

Too bad Rodman is one of the biggest head cases the NBA has seen.

Anyone else think that the continuation rule for shooting fouls is one of the dumbest and most busted in the NBA?
