and (some) people really try to spin in like the Warriors were not the favorites heading into 2017 if they didn't land KD.
They would have been massive favorites. They were already way better than the Cavs, I say this as a cavs fan. We needed LeBron and Kyrie to play the best basketball of their careers and Steph/Klay to underperform while also getting 1 win with Draymond suspended.
They had won 140 games in 2 seasons, and were 1 game away from having the most dominant 2 year stretch in NBA history, arguably NA professional sports history.
The Warriors were a much worse team by the end of that season than they were at the start. Currys injury completely derailed their trajectory. Hell they lost more games in those playoffs than they did in the whole regular season. Plus they should have lost to the Thunder, but the NBA are giant pussies and wouldn't suspend Draymond until he dared to touch LeBron.
He actually didn’t touch Lebron lol. He missed. Dray’s suspension against the Cavs was totally BS but I can’t complain because you are right, he should have been suspended against the thunder and they should have lost that series
Yes, nothing was even called in game when Lebron stepped over Draymond and Draymond's arm swung upwards.
