Are you banking on Chris Paul and the Spurs here or what is this based on?
Don't tell me Houston

You gotta think the Finals not being competitive is something the NBA is really really hoping doesn't happen. It probably will be what happens.

this isnt a rockets trolling thing

Injuries happen. Other factors happen. Im just betting on them not making four straight. Doesnt happen that often

Pretty much my point remains the same. Pauly needs to chill. The gap will close eventually

1. Thats why i didnt say Cleveland wont make the finals and said instead that lebron will retire eventually

2. Lebron is a top 2-3 player ever.

3. He has, but on 2 different teams. He knows things cycle out. And yes he made 4 straight in miami, but this goes back to points 1 and 2

The last word of your post makes the point

When is eventually? This Warriors team isn't breaking up anytime soon, and I don't see a career ending injury in anyone's future.

iggy is entering retirement mode pretty soon. Hes getting old fast.
I dont think livingston will be back

Kerr has probably coached his last game

Contracts eventually run out. Teams get stale after a while. I think everyone complaining about the nba really needs to take a step back

There is good news. Right after kd signed there, the cba changed. Kd is the last time this scenario will ever happen. Lets just let this all play out

I don't think losing Iguodala and Livingston are going to hurt that team at all. They'll just keep chugging along.

I don't think Kerr means all that much either, we have now seen two pretty "meh" coaches run that team in his absence and have a ton of success.

You're probably looking at atleast another 3-4 years of the Warriors just running over the league. That's not including if they all continue to resign. The people complaining are fine, because the league isn't competitive anymore and as a result it's gotten repetitive and boring. It's only going to get worse to.

Spurs and lakers have been running over their wcf opponents for over a decade

This isnt a new "issue"

Miami actually had back to back 7 game ecf's. Last years thunder meltdown was the first west 7 gamer since 2002. And the kings would have demolished the nets like the lakers did

This is the first time in NBA history that two teams have met in the Finals for 3 straight seasons. So yes this is absolutely a new thing. The parity in the league has never been worse than it is right now. The regular season and first three rounds of the playoffs are a gigantic waste of time.

Everyone likes to claim there is no parity, but then they say Kyrie & Love are actually bad, so the only way to solve this is to break LeBron's kneecaps

Thought he's been the GOAT since 2012?

Glad you realized the truth little homie
